Border Wall Dismantled In Arizona As Katie Hobbs Becomes Governor

Arizona has started to dismantle its makeshift border wall made of shipping containers that was championed by former Gov. Doug Ducey but faced opposition from newly minted Gov. Katie Hobbs and was the target of a Biden administration lawsuit.



Footage taken on Jan. 3 showed construction machinery removing a line of shipping containers placed along the U.S.–Mexico border in Yuma, Arizona, which coincided with the day Hobbs was sworn in as governor.

Ducey, who in mid-December agreed to dismantle the wall for which he had once been an ardent advocate, ordered disassembly of the makeshift barrier as one of his final acts in office.

He said earlier that the container wall was always meant to be a temporary construction intended to help stem the tide of illegal border crossings until a permanent solution could be found.

Illegal immigration has soared under President Joe Biden’s watch, with unauthorized crossings topping 2.76 million in fiscal year 2022, according to Customs and Border Protection data.

That figure broke the previous record by over 1 million and was more than twice the highest level notched during the tenure of former President Donald Trump, who made stemming illegal immigration a key part of his platform with his signature slogan “Build the Wall.”

Does Arizona allow for the recall of a governor? Because I think in very short order her damage to the state will be stupefying.

If she ordered this, she is an accessory to (aided and abetted) every illegal border crossing made where those containers stood.

That's a pretty full folder of felonies, even for a Democrat.

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

Yes.

But she had a mandate to do this.

We need a new TV show "You voted for it!".

Of course there are many who consider even that claim dubious I realize. :D

I don't care who she's dating.

Apparently she finds her oath of office to be a joke, but the joke should be on her.

Who here expected otherwise?

There's no doubt to whom hobbs owes her allegiance, or from whom she takes her orders...
