GOP Senator Unleashes on Biden Over Border Wall

GOP Senator James Lankford has come out in defense of former President Trump’s border wall.

According to The Daily Wire:

A Republican senator is slamming President Biden for terminating the declaration of a national emergency at the southern border while paying Department of Defense contractors millions of dollars not to build the wall, saying Biden “is paying professional construction contractors to babysit metal to the tune of $2 billion and counting.”

Oklahoma GOP senator James Lankford noted in a press release, “More than 180,000 migrants attempted to cross our southern border in June alone. On January 20, President Biden issued Presidential Proclamation 10142, which terminated the federally declared emergency at the southern border and halted the construction of the congressionally funded border wall, citing the need to ‘assess’ the wall’s construction.”

Lankford issued a scathing report in which it was noted that Biden’s “efforts to suspend or terminate border wall construction have cost taxpayers between $1.837 billion to $2.087 billion since January 20, 2021. This amount continues to increase by at least $3 million per day, according to records and data obtained by the Minority Staff of the Government Operations and Border Management (GOBM) Subcommittee of the Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee (HSGAC).”

“By the end of the Trump Administration, $10 billion had been transferred to U.S. Department of Defense (DOD) accounts for border wall construction and related projects,” the report noted. “As of June 2021, the Biden Administration has wasted roughly 20 percent ($2 billion) of that $10 billion on suspension and termination costs related to border wall contracts. This waste of taxpayer resources threatens military readiness and national security.”

Biden even makes not building a border wall wasteful.

The Democrats must be setup for Drug Money payoffs to justify their border decisions. It wouldn’t surprise me at all to learn the corrupt Biden family would be in on the payoffs, along with the Pelosi mafia and Schumer families.

Yeah, that Obiden is a real piece of work isn’t he. He is systematically undoing everything President Trump accomplished and it does not matter if it the best for the country. He and his worthless administration have got to go! Another thing that I have been told is that Obiden has not paid the State of Texas for the Texas Guard deployment to Washington DC during the inauguration. Yeah, he’s a piece of something alright!

That’s not all Pinocchio Joe Biden hasn’t paid. Constsntly saying Like the Brown Clown, “Pay your fair share”, Biden started “S Corporations” to hide his income and NOT pay Social Security taxes

Exactly. Biden didn’t care about hurting American citizens by his action. His only goal was to hurt Trump. He is inept and senile and hate to say it but being an Obama flunkee for 8 years, he is corrupt.

I’ve been hoping that the majority of law abiding people in the country are seeing through the intention of the administration and its supporters to totally bring down this country. They intend this through changing the demographics of the country, lowering the education levels, destroying our culture and destroying any resistance to these goals by making as many of the January 6th demonstrators “political prisoners” with no rights for due process as an example for the rest of us. We are being attacked and the red states need to band together and follow constitutional means to fight back and the politicians need to use every opportunity to get this message out. The ultimate goal of the left is to bring all those in the middle class and above down to the level of lower class instead of trying to do the opposite. They are using non-controversional language like “equality”, “social justice” and “diversity” as a means to keep the right at bay. Their narrative to incentive their base is a combination of revenge and hate depending on who they are addressing.

Shame on “Dr” Jill for participating in this elder (what’s even worse USA) abuse. Never have we been in such a precarious position as a country, both externally and internally.

Beth, I couldn’t AGREE with you more! “Dr” Jill Biden only cared about being 1st Lady at the Country’s expense. She is the root cause of what is happening in the US today. Any “caring” wife would NEVER have put a disabled, mentally deficient, husband out there if it wasn’t for her own personal greed. She sickens me.

Biden doesn’t care about the money. He’s only interested in obtaining more Dem voters so the Communists (aka Dems) can complete their task of destroying America.

Maybe, just maybe, his actions will awaken some of the dopes who voted for him and realize just how bad Dems are in leadership and govt positions.

I grew up within 30 miles of where Biden was born in Wil, DE, I have always known him as a “Communist” since he an his Bro. Bern Sanders got elected to the senate in the 1970’s! He now has the distinction of being our second Communist President in our White House. He was second to #1 from 2008 – 2016 with the Arab American Muslin Communist that should never been elected to our congress in the first place !

I fear we will have no recourse until the 2022 election. By then this crook may have done irreparable harm to the nation. And we had better hope and pray that the new >1 million new illegal border jumpers don’t vote, for they will likely vote Democrat, just as the Democrat mobsters are planning. This is the real reason they are opening the borders. In their unbridled lust for power they care not a rat’s a$$ about the American people. We are of no more consequence to them than a fly.

I believe of all the gaffes Biden has made, the main one that is going to keep him from being reelected is the mess he has made of our southern borders which were under control and doing well until he got into office. Truly, that will be his down fall. That and covid.
