Earlier this month, we told you how the Biden administration was selling off parts of the border wall for literal pennies on the dollar. The reasoning was purely political: sell off the wall so the incoming Trump administration has to spend millions (if not billions) on new parts, so Democrats could attack Trump for spending so much money.
Texas filed suit and vowed to try to buy parts of the wall to donate back to the Trump administration.
For now, it seems, they won't have to do that.
Fox News (@FoxNews) ~ NOT FOR SALE: The Biden admin said Friday it would stop selling off materials that could be used to build a border wall, allowing President-elect Trump to use them instead, the Texas attorney general announced.

More from Fox News:
The Biden administration on Friday said it would stop selling off materials slated to be used to build a border wall ahead of the incoming Trump administration, which has promised to bring back tougher efforts to combat illegal immigration.
The Biden administration confirmed to a court that it will agree to a court order preventing it from disposing of any further border wall materials over the next 30 days, allowing President-elect Trump to use those materials, Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton said.
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.
Corinne Hilger (@CreativelyOn) ~ The fact that he was selling materials purchased by taxpaying citizens at a reduced price is criminal. He should be held accountable.
He will not be held accountable.
USALover (@USALover2025) ~ The Biden admin was made to stop. They agreed. Let's not act like it was some act of kindness here. As with everything, it required a court order to force Biden to do the right thing.
And given how he's ignored court orders in past, we're shocked he's not ignoring this one.
Jeffrey (@TechLawExpert) ~ Over the past 4 years how many times have we said “thank God for Texas.” Gov. Abbott and his AG Ken Paxton have stepped up and faced down the Biden Administration over and over again.

Wins Keep Coming! Tom Homan Says Company That Bought Border Wall Will Return It to Trump Admin (WATCH)
http://twitchy.com/amy-curtis/2024/12/28/homan-company-that-bought-border-wall-offers-to-sell-it-back-n2405803
Earlier, we told you about the Biden administration finally agreeing to follow a court's orders and not sell off pieces of the border wall. They'd been auctioning off sections of the wall for pennies on the dollar to throw a wrench in the Trump administration's immigration plans.
Now we have even better news. Incoming border czar Tom Homan reports the company that bought those materials will give them back to the Trump administration for the dirt-cheap price they paid.
George (@BehizyTweets) ~ BREAKING: Tom Homan just revealed that one of the companies that bought border wall materials for dirt cheap from the Biden regime reached out and offered to return the materials.
Homan says the company is "willing to give us that border wall product back at what they paid for (pennies on the dollar)..."
If the regime succeeded in what they tried to pull, they would've damaged President Trump's border security plan. I'm glad it failed, but these crooks must go to jail for treason.
