Yet, when you study up on it, there has been zero new wall built.

True as far as it goes. But that means the Trump administration will have to show that there is a national emergency. And frankly, I'm not sure they can. I'm not that conversant with the law regarding what constitutes a national emergency, but there's more to it than simply declaring that something IS a national emergency.

I learned today the guy that was taking private money for the wall was building it and will be finished with a section in the El Paso sector in a few days.
Is that what you meant or did you not learn, anything, still ?

Near finished and ready to start another wall in a different area !!! Working around the clock !!!

Privately funded organization 'We Build the Wall' starts construction of border barrier in El Paso area
