Whatever happened to the idea of building the border wall again?

[Votto]

Wasn't there a bunch of money in the new tax bill set aside for building the wall?

You tell me.

I have no idea what went into the Leviathan bill be be honest

I tried starting a thread to figure it out, but alas, if you read the whole thing through it would probably take you about a year.

But this is how the Swamp does things I reckon.

Is it just me or has the idea of completing the border wall completely gone away?

Why?

Once again the GOP has obtained power but never mentions it. Are they waiting to lose Congress again to try and rebuild it?

I believe the figure in the BBB for a border wall is about $43 Billion.

Was a multi billion dollar boon Dougal. Why do it again?

FYI:
As of 2025, approximately 66.4 miles of the Texas border wall program have been completed.

Nearly 78 Miles of Border Barriers Built Since Trump Took Office: Noem

The construction includes steel fencing.

It has been written about and talked about a LOT over these last several weeks while compromise to pass the BBB was worked out:

How the ‘Big Beautiful Bill’ will allow President Trump to finally finish the border wall

The president’s tax and funding bill has $46 billion to complete an estimated 700 miles of border wall, plus hundreds of miles more in fences and river barriers, according to the White House.

Mexico isn’t paying for it?

Are you finally catching onto the uniparty scam?

Nothing could be easier than stopping illegal immigration, other than preventing pregnancy.

Troops on the border and prosecute and jail business owners who hire illegals, problem solved overnight.

Its obvious the elite want illegal immigrants, and they control our government. It’s a win-win for them. It depresses American wages and causes division.

Excellent post. Only thing I would add is that the ptsb have been using the illegal immigration problem as a pretext for numerous Orwellian agendas and more authoritarianism.

Mexico isn’t paying for it?

Yes, by having to keep all the terrorists and gang members in Mexico.

Because building it requires funding, and gives the left talking points about how it won't work.

Instead he's going with broadcasting that the party is over, and using existing personnel to secure the border via manpower.

Maybe next year he will use some political capital to get funding for a wall.

$46 billion in the BBB for a wall.

Over $200 BILLION for border enforcement.

I don't see a problem with any of that!

SO MUCH WINNING

Mexico isn’t paying for it?

Yep, they are via the new 3.5% Remittance Tax.

The Remittances Tax: High Paperwork, Low Payoff

The House "One Big Beautiful Bill" includes a new 3.5 percent tax on remittances, or non-commercial transfers of money that people in the US send to people abroad.
