Joe Biden is thankfully on his way out, but as he prepares to evacuate the Oval Office and head back to the Delaware beach, he keeps throwing out obstacles for incoming President-elect Donald Trump.
In one of the Biden administration's more craven moves, they’ve been busy selling off equipment and supplies for the border wall that Trump promised during his first term, which Joe ended when he took office.
Well, take this Christmas present, Joe and Co:
The Biden administration on Friday said it would stop selling off materials slated to be used to build a border wall ahead of the incoming Trump administration, which has promised to bring back tougher efforts to combat illegal immigration.
The Biden administration confirmed to a court that it will agree to a court order preventing it from disposing of any further border wall materials over the next 30 days, allowing President-elect Trump to use those materials, Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton said.
Trump hailed the victory on Saturday:
We won.

Meanwhile, Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton let his feelings be known on Friday:
We have successfully blocked the Biden Administration from disposing of any further border wall materials before President Trump takes office.

This follows our major victory forcing Biden to build the wall, and we will hold his Administration accountable for illegally subverting our Nation’s border security until their very last day in power, especially where their actions are clearly motivated by a desire to thwart President-elect Trump’s immigration agenda.
Despicable:
Just Weeks Before Trump Takes Office, Biden Further Embarrasses Himself by Hawking Pieces of Border Wall
Texas Plans to Buy Pieces of Border Wall Being Auctioned Off by Biden, Return Them to Trump
Democrats have long opposed a border wall and have done everything in their power to thwart it:
The Biden administration has been auctioning off border wall parts since at least 2023, with parts listed for sale on auction marketplaces, after it abruptly shut down most border wall construction in 2021....
The Biden administration abruptly ended border wall construction in January 2021 after 450 miles had been built in the first Trump administration. While border hawks say a wall is a critical tool to stopping illegal immigration, some Democrats have said a wall project is xenophobic and ineffective.
That last sentence in the above quote—“some Democrats have said a wall project is xenophobic and ineffective”—perfectly illustrates how clueless and out-of-touch with the American people so many progressives have become. How can they talk about “ineffective” when the Biden administration has let tens of millions of illegal aliens into the country under their watch?
The corrupt Biden regime already has so many stains on its tattered legacy, and selling off legally purchased materials intended to secure our border and protect the American people is just another in a long line of destructive decisions that prove they seemingly want to tear down the United States instead of making it even better. This figurative slap in the face, along with the November election when the people let it be known loud and clear that they are tired of this nonsense, should be further humiliation to the doddering lame-duck commander-in-chief. Unfortunately, he seems incapable of such self-introspection.
In any case, sayonara—and the new team will go right back to building the wall, thank you very much. Don't let the door hit you on the way out.
