Biden argues his hands were tied with border wall funds

Because he's not running the show.

Biden certainly shouldn't get more Ukraine funding for free.

Dole out the Ukraine money in installments that are conditional to Border Security milestones being met.

If Biden gets all the money at once, he'll welch on the Border Security.  He's been welching on Border Security since the 1986/1987 Immigration Reform Act by not implementing the enforcement mechanisms.

No more $$ for Ukraine.  We've handed billions over to them; billions that could have been used for a border wall, drones and manning the border.

That $$ is approved by Congress....McCarthy caved on the first round back in May and made a deal on this round.  I'm glad he's gone.

Some of the waived federal laws include the Clean Water Act, Endangered Species Act and Safe Water Drinking Act to prevent lengthy reviews and lawsuits challenging the violation of such laws, The Associated Press (AP) reported.

More accurately, the LIEden malAdministration just waived the laws the Enviros and Progs and other Dems had used to obstruct Trump's efforts to build border wall.
If, as anti-Covid-vaxxers claim, https://www.poynter.org/fact-checking/2021/robert-f-kennedy-jr-said-the-covid-19-vaccine-is-the-deadliest-vaccine-ever-made-thats-not-true/ , https://gospelnewsnetwork.org/2021/11/23/covid-shots-are-the-deadliest-vaccines-in-medical-history/ , The Vaccine is deadly, where in the US have Pfizer and Moderna hidden the millions of bodies of those who died of "vaccine injury"? Is reality a Big Pharma Shill?

Millions now living should have died. Anti-Covid-Vaxxer ghouls hardest hit.

Biden Claims Border Wall Doesn't Work Day After His Admin Touts New Construction
Reagan Reese

President Joe Biden said he doesn’t think that a border wall is effective just a day after his administration cleared a path to allow more construction of the border wall on federally protected land in Texas.

The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) will construct a portion of a border wall in the Rio Grande Valley sector of Texas amid a surge in illegal immigrants entering the country, according to an unpublished Wednesday federal register filing. Biden told reporters Thursday that he tried to get his administration to redirect the money being spent on the border wall but under the law, he “can’t stop that.”

“The border wall money was appropriated for the border wall. I tried to get them to reappropriate, to redirect that money,” Biden said. “They didn’t. They wouldn’t. In the meantime, there’s nothing under the law other than they have to use the money for what it was appropriated for. I can’t stop that.”

When asked by a reporter if he thinks the border wall works, all the president had to say was “no.”

The Biden administration announces that it waived 26 federal laws in south Texas to permit more construction for the border wall after pressure from top Democratic officials to address the influx of migrants in the past year.

Really? They violate the law whenever they want? All you have to call it is "waiving," instead of violating. Wow.

Would this be the same Mayorkas who was auctioning off building materials a couple of months back?

Well, ya...

They'll be buying wall materials from their cronies at above market prices because it is an "emergency" suddenly... Can't do that if you already had the materials on hand...

Don't let crises go to waste and all... There's money to be made...

Nope .... they'll buy what they need from China. (Doubtful Mexico is going to pay for it).

Well, if they do this, for what ever politically , backhanded reason, that will be good.

I have to wonder how effective it will be since they have already made a big stink over how it isn't effective. It maybe an effort to sabotage any future building. :shrug:

Does the wall around the White House work?

Notice that this change in rhetoric comes a day or so after Bill Clinton's statement.  Coincidence?

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

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.
