I guess there won't be a wall after all.

The first picture is the new fence. About 10 feet of solid concrete topped by another 10 feet of fencing.

The second picture is the old fence that has been in place for 15-20 years and is made up of steel slats positioned like partially opened venetian blinds.

I'm looking at the upper right hand corner. Are you saying that they dug out the hillside, poured a 10 ft retaining wall, put a temporary wire fence on top?

 

[TLK Valentine]

Some will welcome it. And gates will be provided so they will have access to all their lands.

And who's minding the gates?

 

[Gigimo]

Shucks.

How much was in the last budget for it? Since their will be a bunch of unrealistic budgets coming out of the house for awhile you would have to think there will be continuing budget resolutions for the foreseeable future.

So the emperor IS wearing clothes.... but its just one sock.

Thanks for that image.

 

[OldWiseGuy]

And who's minding the gates?

The gates are locked, and very secure.

Hard to foresee anything at this point.

Silver lining: Republicans increase their lead in the Senate. So...tick-tock, Ruthie. Tick-tock.

Didn't you hear that she'll stay on the court at least until she's 90? That's 5 more years. And she's one very tough cookie. Don't bet against her. You have to hope he gets a 2nd term. (And the Dems don't take the Senate in 2020 or 2022.

I wish her nothing but a long, healthy life. But people's priorities change. It would be nice to see her napping in retirement instead of at official functions.

Yes.

 

[TCassidy]

There is a half a million people crossing our border every month? This is your claim?

What part of 50 thousand didn't you understand?

Hey, I remember that! That was during an Obama SOTU address. Didn't she say she had a drink beforehand? Wouldn't you want a drink (or 2, or 3) if you had to sit through an Obama speech?

 

[Hank77]

Yes.

That clears that up for me, thanks. Do you know the location?
Or where did you get the photo from? Thanks

So much for the (former) landowners having access to their (former) lands.

The still have access. CBP put gates with keypads on common access points. The point is they are still on the south side of the fence without nearby protection, and fire, ambulance, and law enforcement have to drive an additional distance to reach the gates.

What does this mean?

 

[durangodawood]

There was never going to be a wall.

I would have rated the wall thing "pants on fire", but that breaks down when the emperor is only wearing a sock.

Ruth Bader Ginsburg is an Associate Justice of the Supreme Court of the United States who is 85 years old and in very poor health. She is expected to resign (or die) before the 2020 elections.

That would be the part where you are expecting us to believe the ludicrous claim that a half a million people are crossing the border in a month.

 

[WESTOZZIE]

Shucks.

what you will get is NAFTA and open borders.

 

[OldWiseGuy]

Darn.
