Joe Biden uses $500,000 in federal funds to construct himself a personal border wall: Brandon is all for open borders — except when it comes to the one around his own vacation spot

Border walls? Who needs border walls?

Apparently, only Joe Biden does. The rest of us can go without.

Apparently, only Joe Biden does.  The rest of us can go without.

According to a furious editorial by the New York Post:

President Joe Biden is all for open borders — except when it comes to the one around his own vacation spot.

He's stuck taxpayers with a bill for close to half a million for a security fence around his Delaware beach house, a project ongoing since last September, contracted out to a local builder by the Department of Homeland Security. 

The irony is rich: The same agency Biden has used to help erase the US southern border is overseeing a wall around the president's ocean hideaway.

Yes, presidents need security (especially in these deranged political times). But the nation and the people who inhabit it also need security — as do those who aspire to come here. 

It comes on the heels of news that some five million illegal migrants have crossed into the U.S. on Joe Biden's watch, which is almost a couple of Los Angeleses' worth.  About a tenth of those, according to news reports, are known as "gotaways," foreigners with criminal records, or ongoing criminal business for the most part, who have good reasons from their own point of view, to avoid any contact with the Border Patrol, even with its easy, sure-thing "catch and release" policies.

Why are these improvements to the property at least not taxed as imputed income?

When President Nixon used public funds to build a fence around his home in Key Biscayne the left called it tax fraud.
