"The first wall panels have gone up" Border Wall construction has resumed.

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.

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.

No wonder so many companies are fleeing the state of California for Texas:

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.

Abbott understands fundamentals like protecting borders, the concept of nations, controlling borders, controlling your visitors and immigration laws, the constitution...

I suspect Biden will shut them down somehow.

Clinton/Bush/Obama judge in 3..2..1.
 
Imagine they'll eventually find SOME kinda nonsense to try to gum that up with. Destroying the habitat of the yellow-bellied tickle giggler or something.
 
Fortunately, TX does have a pretty good legal team with a lot of tricks up their sleeves. They've stripped the gears of the abortion bunch pretty well so far.

They are petty, but maybe they can be used when the Republicans take over Congress and the Presidency.

Only the states can and will defend the states.

The federal government under Resident Biden will not.

Thank you Gov Abbott. No need for it since they are all over here thanks to your worthless reaction! Only reason you’re doing anything now is Beto’s poll numbers are looking better than yours. Worthless!

Is there a link to contribute to Texas's wall?

It would be nice to spite the Grinch, excuse me, Biden and the Democrats.

When the Christmas Spirit is in short supply, the term, Grinch ye shall apply.

Firing folks just before Christmas; Grinch!

Letting the Fence Jumpers in who have Covid; Grinch!

Stopping the pipeline in the US; Granch!

Approving Pipeline in Russia/Europe; Grinch!

Trying to make illegal voting permanent; Grinch!

And the Grinchette, Pelosi and the Grinchy, Schumer spend all they can on the border hoppers, or did you think that giant spigot was not full blast! Bloat, Bloat, Bloat.

Spiteful is right, not to mention wasting even more of the tax payer dollar. Anyway, the old steel is likely rusty so it wouldn’t be as pretty when finished.

Where’s Irish Bob? LOL, he sees his chances of winning next year diminishing with every mile of fence built.
