Texas hits roadblock in plan to purchase border wall parts at auction

A government surplus company called GovPlanet recently listed pieces of the border wall for auction. These auction posts, which have since been removed, fueled debates about why border wall materials weren’t set aside for future use or new construction. President-elect Donald Trump, who has pledged to continue building the wall, publicly condemned the sales of unused pieces during a Monday press conference. "I'm asking today, Joe Biden, to please stop selling the wall," Trump said. "The administration is trying to sell it for five cents on the dollar, knowing that we're getting ready to put it up." #trump #biden #joebiden #donaldtrump #watchthis #trending #texas #nationalnews #politics #borderwall #mexicoborder #immigration Get the full story and more at https://katv.com/ ----------------------------------------- Stay up to date with our social media: KATV Channel 7 on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/KATVChannel7 KATV Channel 7 on X: https://twitter.com/KATVNews KATV Channel 7 on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/katvnews/ Subscribe to KATV on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCzDwapMWqoitI9Wv6nA7AYw Have a news tip?
