Texas stops providing new funding for border wall construction
AUSTIN, Texas (AP) — Texas has stopped putting new money toward building a U.S.-Mexico border wall, shifting course after installing only a fraction of the hundreds of miles of potential barrier that Republican Gov. Greg Abbott set out to construct four years ago. State lawmakers this month approved a new Texas budget that does not include continued funding for the wall, which had been a multibillion-dollar priority for Abbott as part of a sprawling immigration crackdown. He even took the unusual step of soliciting private donations for construction, saying in 2021 that many Americans wanted to help.

$3 billion down the drain ...

Abbott trying to boost Texas' hate even though he also knows it'll waste money.  :idiot2: ;D

Reminds me of some things Gov. "Nuisance" wasted money on in California... :idiot2:

When I was there, I took the photos below and I even had a nice chat with a Border Patrol Officer about the 30 foot high wall that Trump proposed. He said, ain't gonna do much..:
