Trump’s latest border wall push isn’t about security—it’s a $19.4 billion corrupt giveaway to firms with deep GOP ties. Taxpayer dollars for something that will never achieve the objectives they keep selling. Op: @thebulwark

GOP Senator Thom Tillis slams Trump’s $1.8B slush fund: “I think it’s stupid on stilts… Taxpayer dollars will compensate someone who assaulted a police officer, got convicted…and now we’re going to pay him for that? This is absurd!”

Ruben Gallego called it a "dumb, stupid border wall." He wrote an op-ed that said, "Why we should never build Trump's wall (ever). Ruben Gallego will not keep you SAFE. On Day One, my first piece of legislation will be to fully fund and expedite the construction of the border wall.

🇺🇸SENATOR MARSHA BLACKBURN: DOGE IS SAVING THE AMERICAN PEOPLE ABOUT A BILLION DOLLARS A DAY’ "DOGE is saving the American people about a billion dollars a day. They want to move that up to about three billion dollars a day. And indeed, with the audits they are carrying out and the work they are doing—you know, the great thing about this is that I hear from Tennesseans every Sunday. Whether they're Democrat, Republican, or Independent, they have all turned into whistleblowers, looking for ways to save money for the hardworking taxpayer—because it was hard to earn those dollars.” Source; Sen. Marsha Blackburn

REPORT: The Biden administration is selling off border wall parts for massive discounts as illegal immigration continues to worsen. How about we just put it up instead? According to Fox News host Maria Bartiromo the Biden admin has sold $300 million worth of wall parts for just $2 million. “You're talking about $2 million of revenue from this… This is $300 million in value. This is taxpayer money.” Remember when they said the border wall was “too expensive” and then sent $100 billion to Ukraine?

Adam Schiff is the latest example of something weird going on with California Democrats: they keep agreeing with me about what‘s gone wrong, but they never admit that THEY’RE the ones who did it! I guess now it’s ‘Blame-Shifty Schiff’:

When I spoke with CNN about the border wall project, I made my position clear: if the facts on the ground showed a need for a barrier here, I would support it. They don’t. That isn’t opposition to border security, it’s a recognition that effective border security isn’t one-size-fits-all. Different stretches of the border present different terrain, threats, traffic patterns, and enforcement challenges. What makes sense in one location may not make sense in another. In the Big Bend, decisions about security and infrastructure should be driven by demonstrated need and the realities on the ground, not simply by applying the same solution to every mile of the border. This is our home. We know the terrain, we know the challenges, and we know what our communities and law enforcement face every day. Secure the border with the tools that actually fit the mission.

THE LIE: The border bill did not have bipartisan support. THE TRUTH: The border bill was laced with billions of non-border related items, many including Trump opposed it. Here are some of the items included in the bill that do not affect border security: $60.06 billion to support Ukraine in its fight against Russia. (Roughly 3x more than what the border security would receive.) $14.1 billion in security assistance for Israel. $2.44 billion to support operations in the U.S. CENTCOM and address unrest and combat expenditures in the Red Sea. $10 billion in humanitarian assistance to civilians in Gaza and the West Bank, Ukraine, and other populations caught in conflict zones across the globe. $4.83 billion to support Indo-Pacific allies and deter Chinese aggression $2.33 billion to continue support for Ukrainian refugees displaced after the war against Russia. $400 million for the Nonprofit Security Grant Program in aid to help nonprofits and places of worship enhance their security. TOTAL: $94.460 billion US taxpayer dollars going to non-border crisis related endeavors.

Americans are saying ‘the Emperor has no clothes,’ and they are making it easier for even Republicans to get behind the bipartisan legislation I filed yesterday that will put a stop to Trump’s terrible taxpayer-funded $1.8 billion slush fund.

THE LIE: Kamala Harris “helped negotiate” a “border deal” that was shut down by Trump. THE TRUTH: Kamala Harris waited 3 years as millions of illegals entered the country and then decided to write a “border deal” that had almost nothing to do with the border. The bill was rejected due to its inability to fix the crisis. Here are some of the items included in the bill that do not affect border security: • $60.06 billion to support Ukraine in its fight against Russia. (Roughly 3x more than what the border security would receive.) • $14.1 billion in security assistance for Israel. • $2.44 billion to support operations in the U.S. CENTCOM and address unrest and combat expenditures in the Red Sea. • $10 billion in humanitarian assistance to civilians in Gaza and the West Bank, Ukraine, and other populations caught in conflict zones across the globe. • $4.83 billion to support Indo-Pacific allies and deter Chinese aggression • $2.33 billion to continue support for Ukrainian refugees displaced after the war against Russia. • $400 million for the Nonprofit Security Grant Program in aid to help nonprofits and places of worship enhance their security.

PabloReports: One of the ICE contractors has funneled over a million dollars to Republicans for the midterms. What do you make of that? Grijalva: It’s another clear indication that this administration is corrupt and the people they are supporting are corrupt. If they’re giving that much money in donations to Republican candidates, how much money are they getting from this administration and the GOP?

The shutdown was never about healthcare for Democrats—it was about stopping President Trump’s agenda at any cost. And they were willing to waste tens of billions of taxpayer dollars to do it. Meanwhile, the economy is thriving with 3.8% growth, and we’re on track to accelerate even further into 2026.

THE LIE: Trump is the reason border security under Kamala was so bad. THE TRUTH: The Biden-Kamala admin did nothing for three years while illegals stormed the country and then decided to introduce a bill that was packed with Ukraine funding and called it a “border bill.” The bill was rejected due to its inability to fix the crisis. Here are some of the items included in the bill that do not affect border security: • $60.06 billion to support Ukraine in its fight against Russia.

🚨 #BREAKING: Trump seeks restraining order on the Biden administration selling unused pieces of the border wall for $5 or less, asks Biden to stop the selling. "This has nothing to do with Democrat or Republican." "I'm asking today: Joe Biden, please stop selling the wall. We're gonna use that to create a strong barrier - and it worked." "Hopefully Joe will be able to stop it." "That has nothing to do with a 'smooth transition.'" Trump says people are now buying it up and offering to sell it back to the Trump administration for a higher price. "We'll spend hundreds of millions of dollars on the same wall we already have."
