Administration waives 26 federal laws to get meet 'acute' need
President Donald Trump wasted no time this week responding to confirmation that the Joe Biden administration was waiving a number of federal laws to restart construction work on a border wall at America’s southern edge.
He said Biden needs simply to “go back to Trump policies.”
As president, he directed the creation of several hundred miles of new border barriers to slow down the trafficking of illegal aliens into the United States. Biden, on taking office, immediately trashed all of Trump’s programs, and since then the flood has turned into millions of illegal aliens now in the U.S., to the point multiple cities are unable to fully cope with their demands.
It was Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas, whose tenure has been battered by those floods of illegals, who announced the administration was waiving 26 federal laws to allow construction of several miles of border wall in Texas.

The DHS posted word on the U.S. Federal Registry to allow work to begin in Starr County, Texas, part of a busy Border Patrol sector seeing “high illegal entry.”
”There is presently an acute and immediate need to construct physical barriers and roads in the vicinity of the border of the United States in order to prevent unlawful entries into the United States in the project areas,” Mayorkas said, according to a report in the Daily Mail.
Biden previously had condemned border barriers, following his demand on his first day in office that “building a massive wall that spans the entire southern border is not a serious policy solution.”
Trump explained, “Biden sees our country is being invaded. What is he going to do about the 15 million people from prisons, from mental institutions, insane asylums, and terrorists that have already come into our country?”
A statement from the Trump campaign said, “President Trump is always right.”
Government reports reveal that some 245,000 illegal aliens have been counted in the Rio Grande Valley Sector, which includes Starr County, through just the first eight months of this year.
The waivers will eliminate the need for compliance with laws like the Clean Air Act, Safe Drinking Water Act and Endangered Species Act to allow construction.
During the Trump administration, about 450 miles of barriers were built along the southwest border between 2017 and January 2021.
”After years of denying that a border wall and other physical barriers are effective, the DHS announcement represents a sea change in the administration's thinking: A secure wall is an effective tool for maintaining control of our borders,” Dan Stein, of the Federation for American Immigration Reform, said in a statement.
The Daily Caller News Foundation reported the Biden administration already was working to fill “gaps” in the southern border wall in Arizona, even while quietly “disposing” of materials the Trump administration had obtained and set aside for the work.
”Everything to complete the wall was already in place on the ground and purchased and now they have gone out and redesigned the enclosures for the gaps. This is an example of government waste at its finest,” Yuma County Supervisor Jonathan Lines told the DCNF in August.
Biden’s officials repeatedly have claimed that they are “stopping” the flow of illegals, even though the numbers have surged over and over under their plans.
IMPORTANT NOTE TO WND READERS: Believe it or not, today's high priests of climate-change apocalypse are correct in predicting that in just a few short years, the earth will become miserable, wretched and almost uninhabitable by human beings. But the grim future they envision won't come about because of "catastrophic climate change," but rather, because of the implementation of their completely insane and truly catastrophic agenda.
As Greenpeace co-founder Dr. Patrick Moore recently admitted, "If they actually achieve Net Zero, at least 50% of the population would die of hunger and disease." Likewise, writes energy expert and author Alex Epstein: "Today's proposed policies to rapidly eliminate fossil fuel use would, if fully implemented, have truly apocalyptic consequences – making the world an impoverished, dangerous, and miserable place for most people."
Question: When the scientific case for global warming apocalypse consists primarily of a 1-degree Celsius rise in temperature over more than 130 years, what explains the obsession with an imminent, climate-caused end of the world?
Although many groups have been drawn into the Climate Change Cult – from the news media (which has warned of climate catastrophe, either global warming or a "new ice age," for over a century!), to innocent school kids indoctrinated by hysterical leftist teachers, to liberal Democrats who claim "climate change" will destroy the earth in a few years – the REAL villains are the national and global elites who KNOW the apocalyptic global warming religion is just a cruel hoax, but promote and exploit it as a means of accomplishing their ultimate goal: Transforming and ruling the world.
The heart and soul of today's bizarre, pagan climate-change religion, and the global elites' strategies for using it to rule all of mankind, is powerfully exposed and illuminated in the September issue of WND's critically acclaimed monthly Whistleblower magazine, an issue titled "CULT OF THE CLIMATE APOCALYPSE: The elites' breathtaking strategy for ruling the world." WHISTLEBLOWER is available in both the popular print edition and a state-of-the-art digital version, either single issues or discounted annual subscriptions.
