Mexico is using the wall to keep Americans out. Still no sign they want to pay for it, though.

A silly demonstration made by a few people at one checkpoint. There are 48 US-Mexico entry points and 330 ports of entry.



Build The Wall.
Monday, CBP will issue its weekly report on number of miles built. It will be around 150 miles. At the current pace, another 160 miles will be completed this year.
Then, on to 2024.

Good, every country has the right to keep foreigners out who don't follow the rules to enter legally especially with this virus going around. You and yours need to get over this constant repetition that Mexico isn't paying for the wall. It's getting old and Mexico is paying for it in many ways already.

I ask the questions again. Were you and yours concerned back in 2006 when the Secure Fence Act passed and the taxpayer payed for 700 miles of inferior fencing? Now we have to re-build it. Would you rather we covered the costs for a $25 billion wall than to continue to pay over $100 billion a year that illegal immigration costs us and keeps on increasing? And yes, the good physical barrier being built now are 90% effective.
