Many are still without regular hourly jobs as Covid stimulus $$ winds down. If one was interested in getting a group together to work on completing the boarder wall themselves…. How/where would one start? Thoughts? If we collectively can influence “virtual” entities…. Then why can’t our own two hands influence and create the place WE want to live in???

Your concern and ideas are appreciated. I’m sure thousands would likely respond if you solicited volunteers to finish the border wall. Unfortunately, this is a very complicated situation, especially with Biden’s Homeland Security and DOJ ready to pounce at any opportunity. DOJ is now suing Texas because our AG halted transporting ILLEGAL Aliens with COVID.
I don't know if you're located in Texas so this may be repetitive. Governor Abbott recently announced Texas was going to finish the wall. He implied this earlier in the year; it got a lot of press, then nothing happened. In early July, Colonel Allen West confirmed he was running for governor against Abbott, but the rumors had been out there for a couple of months. Abbott’s announcement to finish the wall was only days before the West announcement. A mere coincidence? I think not… nothing like a viable political challenge to make things happen. So, the purpose of this background info is to explain the likelihood the wall will be built by Texas.
Abbott has a website for this project. https://www.borderwall.texas.gov/
The last I checked, they were in the planning stage to prepare the RFP. I don’t know the current status, but they do post updates. Once the RFP is awarded, the name of the company will be public. So, if you’re interested in working on the wall (and actually getting paid,, 😉 ), there may be opportunities with that company.
It’s infuriating to know the wall was funded, yet, Texas is having to raise money to finish it (plus Texas taxpayers will end up covering the shortages). Meanwhile, it’s costing all taxpayers millions (in excess of the original contract) to pay for the contracts cancelled by Biden. We’re all paying contractors not to work, and for materials to be stored.
Biden has no understanding of contracts and cancellation clauses because he's never run a business; nor has he ever been accountable or responsible for his work or decisions. That’s some of the many perks of being a career politician and living off the taxpayers for almost 50 years. Then again, even if Biden did understand all this, he doesn’t give a rat’s ass about wasting our money to support ILLEGAL immigration ($60+ million a week, in addition to the border wall costs),. The operative word is ILLEGAL; if President Trump had ordered the border surge, the Impeachment would have started within 24 hours.
Okay, ranting over. Thanks for your interest in the border wall. And, I was just thinking... wouldn’t it be awesome if, after the border wall was completed, “someone” gathered “volunteers” and painted “Trump Won” in HUGE letters, about every 10 feet along the entire wall??! 😂🤣😂
Yes! I love that idea about "Trump Won" every ten feet. How about adding "Paid for by Trump Supporters" or "Paid for by the citizens of the United States?" Either of the three are GREAT>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
