(31,893 posts)Biden's order to "pause" construction of the wall gave the contractors 7 days to wind down.
Unfortunately, they seemed to take that as permission to rush through as much destruction as possible.
There's another post from today about "the wall" - https://www.democraticunderground.com/100215098394
Got to the link at the link in that post for more pictures of the destruction: https://www.businessinsider.com/pictures-trumps-half-built-border-wall-and-ruined-landscape-2021-2

Construction has paused on Trump's border wall following a proclamation by President Joe Biden.
Insider commissioned a photographer to document parts of the border wall that never got done.
The landscape is strewn with rough roads, rubble, and evidently useless portions of wall.
All along the US-Mexico border, the machines are silent. On January 20, President Joe Biden gave workers seven days to wind down construction on President Donald Trump's signature project, the border wall.
That work has paused while the Biden administration reviews all contracts and the costs of "terminating or repurposing" them.

Toward the end of Trump's term, contractors rushed to tackle arduous terrain, carving access roads and blasting staging areas into areas that campaigners said would never actually be completed.
Insider commissioned the photographer John Darwin Kurc to document those parts of the border where work has suddenly stopped.
