Biden admin auctions off border wall building materials: report

The Daily Wire has learned that the Biden administration is utilizing its final weeks to transport a substantial quantity of border wall materials from the southern border to be sold at a government auction. The move appears to be a deliberate attempt to impede President-elect Donald Trump's efforts to secure the border.

A border patrol agent informed the publication of the matter, explaining that government contractor, DP Trucking LLC, has been transporting roughly half a mile of border wall per day at the request of the Biden administration. "They are taking it from three stations: Nogales, Tuscon, and Three Points. The goal is to move all of it off the border before Christmas," the border agent based in Arizona said.

The border wall is reportedly being auctioned off on GovPlanet, a surplus government equipment sale platform. Harold Lambeth, owner of the trucking company, confirmed that his truckers were transporting border wall materials but did not provide further details.

"They just started taking all the wall that was not used, which is still totally good and usable, and they started taking it northbound," the agent said, who supplied the Daily Wire with video footage of the border wall being loaded onto flatbed trucks. "They're pulling it all off the border."

A video of the GovPlanet auction site depicts endless stacks of unused border wall material, while another video shows DP Trucking LLC trucks passing through with border wall materials stacked up on their flatbeds. According to the auction website, bidding for each portion of wall panels will start at just $5.00. The most recent sale of unused border wall materials was on Dec. 4.

 

It is anticipated that one of Trump's first acts upon reentering office will be to issue an executive order to release funds to resume border wall constructions, which Biden had put on hold.

Congressman Eli Crane (R-AZ) lambasted the selling of the border wall, telling the Daily Wire: "The Biden administration is well aware they shouldn't have reversed the construction of the border wall...They're purposefully hamstringing an incoming president...Why would they want to see President Trump succeed with policies they aggressively sabotaged?"
