Biden Makes Truly Sneaky and Petty Move on Border Wall to Thwart GOP

Things at the border have just been getting worse. As my colleague Mike Miller reported, there’s an 800 percent increase of Chinese illegal aliens crossing the border. But Joe Biden doesn’t seem to care about it. What problem could there possibly be from such an influx of so many military-aged men from a country hostile to our interests?

On top of that, there’s been an increase of 33 percent in illegal alien encounters between June and July. In June, there were 99,539 encounters, and July had 132,652 encounters, according to the CBP data.

So you might think that Joe Biden would do all he can to stop such an influx. But if you’ve been watching what he’s doing since the day he came into office, you would know that isn’t the case. Indeed, he seems to do what he can to make everything worse.

Biden not only stopped the building of the wall former President Donald Trump had well underway the minute he came in, he just left the materials that had been ordered rather than use them, paying more to have them not used and to terminate contracts for building. That’s what a small and petty man he is on the subject. He paid a ton NOT to complete the wall.

In 2021, Senate Republicans blistered Biden for spending $2 billion on storage costs and termination fees as he tried to wind down Trump’s wall-building contracts — and this year, congressional investigators found that the DOD was continuing to shell out $130,000 a day on storage fees for unused wall parts.

Now there’s more to the story of his continuing pettiness. The Democrat-led Senate passed a Republican bill agreeing to continue the wall — the “Finish It Act” as part of the defense appropriations past package in July. The Act says that the material Biden has left lying around to rust should be used to complete the wall or given to states like Texas to finish the wall. The fact that this provision made it through a Democrat-controlled Senate tells you how bad the border crisis is.
