ICYMI: Donald Trump Demands Judge Halt Biden’s Alleged ‘fire sale’ of Border Wall Materials; Trump Files Amicus Brief to ‘immediately’ Stop Biden Sale of Border Wall, Says Conduct is ‘possibly criminal’; Border Wall Materials Pulled From Auction Website After Biden Tries to Sell Them

Donald Trump demands judge halt Biden’s alleged ‘fire sale’ of border wall materials:

President-elect Donald Trump in a filing Thursday night demanded that a federal judge halt the Biden administration’s alleged “fire sale” of US border wall materials before he returns to the White House.

Trump’s lawyer John Sauer asked Judge Drew Tipton in the Southern District of Texas to investigate an explosive report showing that southern border wall slats are being secretly hauled away and auctioned off for as low as $5.

The incoming president is “deeply troubled” about the border fencing being peddled by President Biden, Sauer wrote in the 22-page filing, arguing the current administration’s actions, if proven, would “threaten to encroach unlawfully” on Trump’s executive authority.

“If the current Administration is selling off border-wall materials at rock-bottom prices, imposing financial losses on the United States in an attempt to defeat the pro-wall policy of President Trump, it is unlawfully encroaching on the incoming Administration’s exercise of the Executive Power,” Sauer said.

“The Court should order an immediate stop of all such sales and perform a searching examination of the Government’s conduct — by ordering formal discovery if necessary — to ensure compliance with the Constitution, the law, and the Court’s orders.”

The Biden administration is selling the unused southern border segments at GovPlanet, an online federal equipment marketplace, the Daily Wire reported last week.

A Border Patrol agent told the outlet, which captured footage of the construction materials being transported, that the Biden admin is “taking it from three stations” with the goal of completing the operation “before Christmas.” —>READ MORE HERE

Trump files amicus brief to ‘immediately’ stop Biden sale of border wall, says conduct is ‘possibly criminal’:

Texas and Missouri are asking a district court to investigate whether the Biden administration has violated a court order

President-elect Trump filed an amicus brief late Thursday in support of a legal effort by Texas and Missouri to “immediately” stop the Biden administration’s sale of border wall materials, saying the action is “possibly criminal.”

Texas and Missouri filed a motion earlier this week in a district court in the southern district of Texas to hold a status conference to determine if the government is in breach of the court’s permanent injunction from earlier this year. That injunction barred the Biden administration from using funds obligated for wall construction for anything other than that purpose.

“The Court should issue an order directing the Defendants to immediately stop any ongoing sale of border-barrier materials to private parties pending the Court’s review of Defendant’s conduct, and the Court should swiftly conduct a searching examination of the Government’s conduct, by formal discovery if necessary, to examine the Government’s compliance with the law, the Constitution, and the Court’s injunction,” Trump’s amicus brief states.

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.

Those auctions have continued, with border officials telling Fox that auctions now occur weekly and have been for some time. However, the practice made news last week, when The Daily Wire published video showing parts being transported and cited Border Patrol agents who said the goal was to clear them out before Christmas.

Trump’s amicus brief states that if officials in the Biden administration are “deliberately selling off border-wall materials at a major financial loss to the Government to obstruct the pro-wall policy of Congress and President Trump, such conduct likely constitutes a criminal act, such as a conspiracy to defraud the United States.”

“At the very least, the reported conduct raises troubling concerns of potentially criminal behavior,” the filing states.

A Defense official told Fox News last week that the Pentagon has been disposing of excess wall construction in accordance with the fiscal year 2024 National Defense Authorization Act, which required the Defense secretary to submit a plan to use, transfer or donate all remaining wall material purchased with Pentagon funds. That plan was submitted in March. —>READ MORE HERE
