Nine condemnations in one week.

We have not seen anything approaching this in the Trump-era Program before.

We are off to the races the Rio Grande Valley.

condemnation essentially means they couldn’t work out an agreeable price via negotiation and/or arbitration, most likely because the land-owners didn’t want to work out an agreement ...

eminent domain provides that any government ALWAYS has the option to take immediate possession of the condemned land and work out compensation after the face ... in my experience as a city councilman, condemnation was ALWAYS a last resort, and the mere threat of condemnation was sufficient to work out a deal ...

I want the sections in the RGV to be completed. This will change the political demographics of the area.

Kinda reminds you when Israel was re-building their walls.....

At first they laughed Nehemiah to scorn...but as soon as Sanballat and his associates heard that Nehemiah and the Jews were actually building the walls, they were angry....but while Sanballat and his associates organized to fight against him Nehemiah ‘prepared to meet the opposition and continued the work on the walls’....which is how it’s been throughout Trump and our guys building our wall.....

Good news. Obviously those landowners didn’t care about the money, they want to stop the wall.

According to wiki the intestate highway system has 48,440 miles of at least 4 lane highways. Some how all of that was built after annexing every inch for these highways. I don’t remember any eminent domain problems.

McAllen is a critical area. “Well traveled,” as they say. Not sure how close to the river these projects will be, but I’m sure all has been well researched. It’s what Trump does.
