A major border town official said it’s “ridiculous” the Biden administration is selling off materials purchased for President Trump’s border wall, both wasting money and letting drugs flow into the country.
“I don’t think [President Biden] could stomach installing any more of Trump’s wall,” Yuma County Supervisor Jonathan Lines told Fox News. “That’s what he vowed not to do.”

GovPlanet, an online auction marketplace specializing in military surplus, has sold 81 lots of steel “square structural tubes” since April, according to the New York Post. It’s reaped about $2 million in sales, and its auction schedule picked up in May after a GOP-led bill demanded border wall construction either restart or the supplies be provided to state governments.
“It’s ridiculous,” Lines said. “We have completed sections sitting on the ground ready to be installed.”
