Construction started Friday on the US-Mexico border wall project at ...San Diego County.

The work will replace about 14 miles of scrap metal wall that stands up to 10 feet high with a wall between 18 and 30 feet tall. The new wall will also have an anti-climbing plate.

Crews will build the wall starting half a mile from the Pacific Ocean, east to the bottom of Otay Mountain in East County.

CA is lost, focus on Texas and AZ or the country is finished.

CA also has the Pacific ocean and a large number
of illegals come in via the west coast.

“can’t Mexicans swim?”

The joke was that Mexico did not send a team to the 1984 Olympics in Los Angeles, because everybody who could run, jump or swim was already there.

“I just like accuracy in my FR thread headlines.”

The headline is verbatim from the article’s headline.

What they are putting in really is a heavy construction project, compared to what they are replacing.

I see journalism is just as dead in Mexico as it is in the U.S.A.

Usually 2.5 max expected??

According to 0bama and his economic wizards, growth rates of 3% and above were a thing of the past under "the new normal" and would never be seen again. Idiots!

I think even he was stunned at the depth of opposition and deep hatred for him and his agenda.

He underestimated the enemy, he needs to up his game.

Sheer speculation on MY part. We have no idea what the Generals knew and what they may have shared with him prior to his running.

But what I do know is that whatever he may or may not know, God knows, protects, delivers, and guides according to His will. And He is using DJT for HIS purposes.

So really, although I am frequently concerned, in my heart I know that God’s got it all under His control! : )

Not only that, but where is the razor wire?

Agreed... looks like ropes could pull people over from the US side so long as there's a soft landing spot. Would require a team effort, but it's certainly doable.

======================

I'll stick with what the greatest Samurai (Ronin)to ever live said. In Miyamoto Musashi's Dokkōdō: A Ronin's 21 Laws of Life

19. Respect Buddha And The Gods Without Counting On Their Help.

Count on yourself, Don't count on luck or gods to pull you through. Tackle the endeavors you know are within your capabilities. If you pray to them for strength then they will put you in situations to find it.

I don’t pray to “gods”. I pray to the Lord God.

You’re missing the point. Musashi’s words ring true regardless of what religion you do or don’t practice.

No. I expected the old stuff would be torn down, and it would be replaced by one of the prototypes that was at the border that Trump campaigned on. The bill, as far as I know, did not allow him to build that wall, so he’s replacing the existing fence with something better, but it’s not the wall he campaigned on for the border.
