Ah, another victory for common sense and border security. It seems President-elect Donald Trump is already getting things done before officially retaking office. This time, a federal judge in Texas has put the brakes on the Biden administration’s brazen attempt to sell off materials earmarked for the border wall. You know, the same materials American taxpayers already paid for but were left to rust under Biden’s open-border free-for-all.
Trump wasted no time celebrating the win, calling it a “major, crucial WIN for America and our National Security.” And he’s right. This isn’t just about preventing waste; it’s about exposing the Biden administration’s shady backdoor efforts to sabotage Trump’s return. Selling off border wall supplies at bargain-bin prices isn’t just fiscally irresponsible—it’s a blatant attempt to undermine the incoming administration’s ability to secure the border.
Let’s not forget the backstory. Biden halted wall construction on Day One of his presidency, leaving millions of dollars in materials to gather dust while the southern border became a revolving door for illegal crossings. Fentanyl smuggling skyrocketed, violent crimes spilled over the border, and trafficking operations flourished—all while the administration looked the other way. Now, as they prepare to leave office, they’ve been trying to dump those materials to keep Trump from picking up where he left off. Classy.
But Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton wasn’t about to let them get away with it. He filed a lawsuit to block the Biden administration from selling off the wall materials, and the courts agreed. Now, Biden’s team has been ordered to stop all sales for 30 days, which is buying time for Trump to reclaim the materials and resume construction. That’s what leadership looks like.

The ruling doesn’t just stop the fire sale. It also opens the door to an investigation into whether Biden’s team violated court orders or made misrepresentations about their actions. If they did, the responsible parties could face contempt of court charges. Imagine the irony: the same administration that spent years weaponizing the DOJ against Trump could find themselves in legal hot water for undermining national security.
And let’s talk about those videos obtained by The Daily Wire, showing unused border wall sections being hauled away by flatbed trucks in Tucson. Up to half a mile of wall per day was being removed from hotspots for illegal crossings. The Biden administration’s “solution” to a border crisis of their own making was apparently to ensure the tools to fix it were no longer available. Genius.
The left’s strategy is clear: sabotage Trump’s immigration agenda at all costs, even if it means risking national security and thumbing their noses at taxpayers. But thanks to leaders like Paxton and judges willing to enforce the law, Biden’s team won’t get away with it.

Trump has made it clear that protecting America’s borders isn’t just a campaign slogan—it’s a mission. And with this win, the foundation for rebuilding the wall and restoring sanity to border policy is firmly in place. So enjoy your last days in office, Team Biden. The adults are back in the room.
