Biden Paying Contractors $5 MILLION A Day To NOT Build Trump’s Border Wall

I’m sure that you know that Joe Biden has halted the construction of the wall along the southern border. But, did you know that we have to continue to pay the contractors the same amount of money for doing nothing? While Joe Biden has the power to stop the building of the wall, he cannot refuse to continue to pay the companies who signed contracts. Rodney Scott, the former chief of the United States Border Patrol pointed this out during an interview with Fox News.

Scott told Fox host Bret Baier that we repaying the construction companies $5 million dollars for every day they don’t work. Baier was taken aback by that number. Scott told Baier that Biden put a 60 hold on the construction of the wall and will then evaluate the situation, but if you believe he will continue building the wall, you have been drinking or smoking some powerful stuff.

Scott said:

“We’re supposed to do an in-depth study and then come up with a plan going forward. As Border Patrol did its part, everything, that was done within about two weeks, several briefings later, there really had not been any decisions made, it went well beyond the 60 days. Many of those projects today are just still on hold. So we’re paying contractors, for a while it was almost $5 million a day between DOD and DHS.”

“There are stacks and stacks of border wall panels, there are hundreds of miles of fiber optic cabling, there are hundreds of cameras that were being installed with that, that are just sitting, there’s no action being taken.” 

Baier then asked Scott what Biden was planning to do and Scott replied:

“We’re not building more wall. There’s no conversation,” Scott responded. “There’s no there’s no adult dialogue, if you will. It’s just it’s just a black and white decision. The administration said we’re not doing it. So we’re not doing it. That money is just trickling away to those contractors for not doing work each day.”

From The Daily Wire

RODNEY SCOTT, FORMER BORDER PATROL CHIEF: So a presidential proclamation came out and it was a 60 day pause that is publicly available. We’re supposed to do an in depth study and then come up with a plan going forward. As Border Patrol did its part, everything, that was done within about two weeks, several briefings later, there really had not been any decisions made, it went well beyond the 60 days. Many of those projects today are just still on hold. So we’re paying contractors, for a while it was almost $5 million a day between DOD and DHS–

BAIER: Just to not–

SCOTT: To not build the border wall.

BAIER: Wait. $5 million a day to not build the wall?

SCOTT: To not build a wall.
