We ARE Building That Wall … Or Are We?

A friend emailed me with this link, which says that our federal government is so building a wall along the southern border. The website has a companion Twitter feed here.

Can’t load tweet https://x.com/TrumpWallConstr/status/1186227668192243712: Sorry, you are not authorized to see this status.

I am sunk so deep in Trump Disappointment Syndrome, I'm struggling to believe this isn’t some kind of disinformation. It’s not clear who is responsible for the website/Twitter feed — no names, no proper attribution. Is it just fake news?

And even if it’s genuine, 89 miles isn’t much to boast of for three years' work. Hungary built a 200-mile fence in less than a month. But hey, I'll take it … if it’s for real.

See also this, from the Border Patrol:

75 miles of new border wall system completed. Construction currently underway for an additional 158 miles. 450 miles by the end of 2020.

The border wall system supports USBP’s ability to impede and deny illegal border crossings and drug and human smuggling activities. pic.twitter.com/VlSTBs6MoI
