More propaganda. Seek help for your addiction to misinformation. It's troubling how gullible you are. I hope you don't manage money or make decisions for anyone else.
But the federal government is actually required to sell these excess pieces, and the process started months ago. The Department of Defense told media outlets that it must use, transfer, or donate all excess wall construction materials because of the National Defense Authorization Act.
The official said that the materials were divided up, with 60% going to authorized recipients like Texas, California, or U.S. Customs and Border Protection. The other 40% was sold to GovPlanet back in June, so the pieces that were up for auction no longer belong to the government.
The DoD says Texas did request some of those materials and later received them.
As for the pieces being auctioned off from Arizona, Lieutenant Governor Dan Patrick proposed that Texas buy the materials and donate them to Trump. However, after consulting with the Texas Facilities Commission, he walked back the plan.
“The Texas Facilities Commission told us today that the material for sale was mostly junk, with most panels covered in concrete and rust,” Patrick wrote in a post on X. “There were a few panels that might be usable, but not worth the cost of shipping to Texas from Arizona.”

I will not personally attack you like you did me for some unknown reason, but this isn’t exactly true. Yes Congress authorized the sell of excess wall materials to be sold in 2023, but to border states only, and the materials were to be used in building walls/barricades. 60% had already been sold in just that way, but Biden was trying to secretly sell the remaining 40% to the lowest bidders at auction sites.

Again, reading comprehension. Nothing in your referenced article is any different than what I posted above that with a legit news source. You started off by promoting political propaganda from Ken Paxton that was sensationalized drivel and yet you still claim Biden is selling 40% secretly.
Maybe try and post legit information and then I won't call you out as being a sycophant who has no interest in unbiased reporting.

I don't think what this poster is doing is trolling. I don't agree with their position and think they often cite partisan BS, but I think that's how far down the rabbit hole they are. I know people like this personally and they follow these same paths. Maybe they're a lost cause, but I'm not ok with misinformation just being plopped down unchallenged. Ignoring this stuff is why social media is a cess pool of re-posted memes and misleading statements. These people fell for it and the infection will continue to spread unless we actively rebut lies, half-truths and biased opinions posing as facts.
The Biden administration is partially blaming a massive spike in homelessness on an immigration surge, reports the Daily Caller.
The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development said federally required tallies taken across the country in January found that more than 770,000 people were counted as homeless — a number that misses some people and does not include those staying with friends or family because they do not have a place of their own.
That increase comes on top of a 12% increase in 2023, which HUD blamed on soaring rents and the end of pandemic assistance. The 2023 increase also was driven by people experiencing homelessness for the first time. The numbers represent 23 of every 10,000 people in the U.S., with Black people being overrepresented among the homeless population.
“Some communities reported data to HUD that indicated that the rise in overall homelessness was a result of their work to shelter a rising number of asylum seekers coming into their communities,” HUD stated in a summary of its report.
“Importantly, this reporting was collected prior to the Biden-Harris Administration taking executive action to secure our border, after Congressional Republicans blocked a bipartisan Senate bill that would have provided needed resources and authorities to help reduce irregular migration.”
The report stated migration “had a particularly notable impact on family homelessness, which rose 39% from 2023-2024. In the 13 communities that reported being affected by migration, family homelessness more than doubled.
“Whereas in the remaining 373 communities, the rise in families experiencing homelessness was less than 8%.”

Published December 30, 2024 7:57pm EST| Updated December 30, 2024 8:43pm EST
EXCLUSIVE: Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) has ended two programs that provide social services to illegal immigrants who are released into the U.S. interior, telling lawmakers that one brings "immense cost with little improvement" and that another is out of line with ICE’s mission.
The agency responded to Rep. Byron Donalds, R-Fla., and 15 members of Congress who wrote to ICE in May asking for more information about the "Alternatives to Detention" program, which monitors illegal immigrants not in ICE detention. The agency defended the program and said it was "an efficient and effective" program for monitoring a segment of illegal immigrants on ICE’s non-detained docket.
ICE only has around 40,000 beds available at one time while it has a non-detained docket of nearly 7.7 million people, a number that has soared during the Biden administration. Of those, just over 181,000 are enrolled in the Alternatives to Detention monitoring program, where migrants are monitored either by an app check-in or a GPS monitor.
But in recent years, the agency has also created separate programs to offer various services and assistance to those not in detention. In the letter, the agency says some of those programs are ending. One is the Wraparound Stabilization Service (WSS), which ICE says began in February 2020 and involves working with NGOs to offer "services that provide psychosocial and behavioral health support for vulnerable participants and their families who would benefit from additional stabilization services."
ICE says the program stopped referrals in July and that the program was ineffective in what it sought to do, having only a 2% higher compliance rate from those who took part in services compared to those who did not.
"ICE Enforcement and Removal Operations [ERO] notes the challenge with the WSS was its immense cost with little improvement," it says. "As a result, ERO determined WSS was not cost effective enough to continue paying for these services when they did not benefit ICE or help the agency further its mission."
ICE had previously cited difficulties with the program, including a cumbersome identification and referral process, a substantial increase in participants and a lack of resources.
The agency also says it had decided in June not to continue a vendor contract for the Young Adult Case Management (YACMP) program. That program offered 18- and 19-year-old migrants legal services, screenings, referrals to social service programs and human trafficking screenings. It started in 2023 and was present in 16 cities.
"In addition to fiscal limitations, a review of the program revealed that YACMP does not align with ERO’s mission or priorities. In short, ERO took steps to realign or stop using programs to address the budget challenges facing the agency," the agency’s letter says.
The letter also provided information about the operation of the ATD tracking by app or GPS, known as the Intensive Supervision Appearance Program (ISAP). ICE said 98.6% of those with court tracking appeared at their court hearings overall, while 90.4% appeared for final hearings. As of September, 13.2% of participants were being tracked by a GPS ankle or wrist device, and the average length on the program was 511.9 days.
Lawmakers also asked about those who were charged or convicted of crimes while enrolled in ATD. The agency said that in fiscal 2024, there were 3,913 charges and 688 convictions for those in the program, including 10 sex offense convictions, 364 traffic offense convictions, two homicide convictions, four kidnapping convictions and 65 assault convictions.
The incoming Trump administration is eyeing a substantial increase in deportations, with President-elect Trump having promised a "historic" mass deportation operation. Fox Digital also reported this month that it wants to reduce numbers not in detention while also increasing the use of ankle monitors on those who cannot be detained.
Conservatives responded to the information provided to lawmakers by calling on the new administration to scrap even more programs providing services for illegal immigrants.
"ICE is a law enforcement agency, not a charity. The billions of dollars DHS has wasted to bring millions of illegal aliens into the country and provide them excessive amenities should be redirected to getting every illegal alien safely back to their home country," Lora Ries, director of the Heritage Foundation's Border Security and Immigration Center, told Fox News Digital.
Ries called the services a "boondoggle" and said "there are several other similar initiatives that must meet the same fate under President Trump."
"Instead of wasting taxpayer dollars in conflict with an agency mission, we should see a massive increase in resources for detaining and deporting illegal aliens. If you don’t support the agency’s mission, you shouldn’t get a dime," she said.

ICE shuts down programs offering services to illegal immigrants, citing ‘immense’ costs
Non-detained docket has exploded in recent years to more than 7.6 million people
