No wall is high enough nor patrols deep enough so long as US businesses and people continue to hire undocumented people without consequences.
Oh, so we should just give up and let everyone in?

They are not "undocumented people." They are illegal aliens. Illegal!

How about a link on that because lefty propaganda has been flowing through the media about the wall for over 4 years.

Still, I would not be surprised if it came to the Wall getting added as a COMPROMISE to get Republicans on-board of Biden's Infrastructure Bill to get the Infrastructure rebuilding passed. Time will tell if that could be the case over the Biden Administration trying to push the bill on its own.

Either way.... I see it getting passed and COMPROMISE is ALWAYS A GOOD THING we lack today over complete demonizing and name-calling we were hearing for a few years that is hard for some to give up..... especially in this forum.

It is actually a FAILURE of the Trump Administration that the Wall was not built and during his years in office few miles even got built and with structure issues. If he wanted it bad enough and was this can-do kind of persona..... I would have expected it would have been built yet was not.... just a bit of opinion.

I still will always think of President Reagan saying to the Russian leaders about the Berlin Wall...... to Tear down that Wall vs build any.
It is not a case of compromise, it is a case of did the president violate laws and powers given to congress?
That is the question.
It has nothing to do with Biden's infrastructure plan.

Haha! The Biden administration is reportedly considering restarting construction of former President Donald Trump’s wall along the U.S.-Mexico border as the administration struggles to maintain control of the worsening border crisis.

If this wasn't the most Hilarious thing I have read this week.

Biden Department of Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas said during a conversation with ICE employees last week that the administration was considering finishing “gaps in the wall.”

Wait a moment!! You mean ... borders and border security isn't racist?? It's not wrong to stop people from coming in illegally?? Shocking!!!

The only surprising thing is that it took less than 100 days for them to flip the script and decide that Trump's wall was actually a good idea.

At least when a Dem is President, broken promises are often a good thing.

Militarize the border and start killing anyone crossing illegally would stop all that crap.

Do you think that "doctors, engineers, and scientists" are sneaking across the border?

Rep. Ilhan Omar slammed President Joe Biden for attempting to quietly continue work on the southern border wall project commissioned by President Donald Trump, just after Biden loudly proclaimed that he was ordering the halt of all construction on the barrier.

Despite the Biden regime’s attempt to downplay the fact that it is building the wall after calling the project “racist” in the past, many far-left hardliners are not convinced.

On Wednesay, Omar tweeted, “It’s shameful and unacceptable for @POTUS to continue the construction of Trump’s xenophobic and racist wall.”
