The petty, spiteful Leftists in the Biden Administration refused to sell unused wall panels that were already stacked at the site when construction was halted, so the State of Texas had to buy new steel.
Despite it all, Border Wall Construction has now resumed, with about a billion dollars in this year's Texas budget for new Border Wall.
From a Pennsylvanian: Thank You Governor Abbot. And God Bless Texas.
Governor Abbott will be at the construction site tomorrow (Saturday, 18 Dec) to hold 12pm ET announcement/details. @FoxNews will air it live.
Merry Christmas America.
They could run a temporary barbed wire wall like the one between Libya and Egypt in the 1930s, to stop the current flow of invaders, then go bad and put the main wall up with the barbed wire one for a backup.
I can weld, run skytracks, etc. I will look into spending next year’s vacation time down there.
Things going the way the are, we may need to go further.
Others have preceded Gordon Ramsay’s move from California to Texas, including Elon Musk, who has officially moved Tesla’s headquarters from California’s Silicon Valley to a large factory being built outside Austin, Texas. Others making the same move include Toyota Motor North America, McKesson Corporation, Charles Schwab & Company, CBRE (Coldwell Banker Richard Ellis), Core-Mark International, Oracle, and Hewlett-Packard.According to the Hoover Institute, 74 companies have moved out of California during the first six months of 2021...January 2018 through June 2021, a total of 265 companies left the Golden State, and 114 of them moved to Texas.

I can shoot invaders and at age 76 am still a pretty good shot.
Abbott understands fundamentals like protecting borders, the concept of nations, controlling borders, controlling your visitors and immigration laws, the constitution...
They did. This is the first of the permanent Trump-style barrier system.
They strung at least 6 miles worth of barbed wire barrier, as well as using shipping containers as a temporary barrier.
I suspect Biden will shut them down somehow.
I hope it starts in the Rio Grande Valley first.
This is an invitation for the treacherous usurpers to attempt just that.
This could be the latest version of Concord and Lexington.
If they build it, we will come.
They might try but that would be pretty bad optics.
I would tell any attempt by the feds to take a hike, show up on site and try and stop us.
If they are that stupid have the camera crews waiting.
The adds from that would have 65% of the citizen Hispanic population in the border states voting R in the mid-terms.

“I suspect Biden will shut them down somehow.”
No doubt they will try.
The Feds can sit on some of the prime, highest priority land that needs to be walled off, to keep big gaps open.
But the State of Texas can make progress in walling off a lot of priority segments (like State land, and that of willing private landowners), corralling the illegal traffic through smaller gaps, where law Enforcement can focus.
This is permanent barrier system, so every mile they do, will be one less that the next Trump Administration will have to do.
“I hope it starts in the Rio Grande Valley first.”
It has. Just West of La Grulla.
They are petty, but maybe they can be used when the Republicans take over Congress and the Presidency.
Does this mean that all Americans must build a wall around their homes to protect themselves against invaders? What happened to the 2nd Amnt? Is a wall the only way to assure our safety?
>>No wonder so many companies are fleeing the state of California for Texas:<<
The companies are welcome, the lefty personnel not so much.
