The crazy thing here is that this should have been done regardless of who is in office. But Biden made a point once he got in office to practically undo everything Trump had a hand in, no matter how well it was working. So Biden, of course, shut down the Trump wall, and just had them leave the already fabricated wall panels to collect dust. And Biden’s plan to have horrible border security would be faring far better if it were not for Gov. Abbott. Abbott has been serving the people of Texas and so that means keeping them safe. So he has been using the National Guard to help maintain the border as they finish the wall in Texas without the help of the Federal Government.
“Three billion dollars of Texas taxpayer money has been devoted to this cause of Texas securing the border, and so we have a lot of money available to us to continue to build the wall. And Stuart, I’ll add this, for Texas [this] is going to cost less than it did for the Trump administration for one reason. And that’s because in Texas, unlike the Trump administration, we’re not having to devote money to acquire the land …The state of Texas owns [land] on the border itself.
Secondly, there are property owners of massive acreage on the border who are fed up with Biden’s open border policies, and they are donating their land to Texas for us to be able to use that land for free to build a wall on their property.”

“On Thursday, Lt. Col. Dan Garrison of the Texas Military Department, who is an engineer in charge of the fence-building that is part of Operation Lone Star, updated with news that private landholders have committed to allowing fencing to be built on a total of 62.75 miles in five border counties. Those counties are Val Verde, Maverick, Starr, Zapata, and Webb. Garrison said, “There’s a big safety aspect in building this barrier. The intent is to stop that crossing in places where people could potentially get hurt.” Over the course of the last two weeks, two miles of temporary fencing has been put up in rural Starr County east of Rio Grande City.”
Abbott can only do so much since he is only the leader of Texas. But he shouldn’t have to build the border wall. The Federal Government should. But the Biden Admin could not care less about our border and the Americans that are endangered by the border crisis he created.
