Well the humidity in the western states is very low. With that said less humidity less degradation of materials in use or staged. This whole crock of crap about the material being degradated is total B/S.
That's not a wall. I've seen it breached by kids. I've seen it scaled easily, and large bundles catapulted across. It has been blown down in the wind. It's useless, and Mexico isn't going to pay for it 😅😅😅
That’s very true they would be hardly any rust on them. If so, it’s just surface rust with the time they’ve been laying out if you had those metal slats here on the East Coast in the state of Georgia they still would be usable. Most iron workers know how to use a wire wheel to clean rust off of steel.
Having worked in the steel industry for many years. You need to do some more research before putting out such claims. There’s nothing wrong with that steel. Nothing more wrong with it than the stuff standing straight up and installed.
And with todays price to have it made, I don't see how they can say it's not worth it. You are still going to have shipping costs for the new panels. This is the kind of crap DOGE come in although we should have people working in the depts with enough common sense to realize it. This is the problem when you put lawyers in office.
There is not extra wall materials if there's gaps without a wall until we're done building the wall. There isn't any excess. Where do they get this excess materials?
why would this steel be degraded more than what is currently standing So with that logic all of the wall that was put up would be in the same condition and not usable. This report is not believable. If the core is full of cement how could the steel be in such bad shape
It's not. The steel used is designed to have a layer of oxide to keep the internal integrity, like certain bridges and power transmission towers are of this same steel.
What Texas can do is sees ownership of the steel slats and move them to military bases in Texas mainly national guard basis and then tie the whole thing up in court until January
I am sorry, "not a political act"? What deems a piece of boarder wall "excess" when the wall is not nearly completed? Merely attempting to make something simple sound complicated, they do not "have to sell" because the items do not qualify as "excess." Simple, case closed, and so is the auction for American secure borders.
..they are NOT rusted junk..it is a high quality metal called core 10. A few microns of the surface oxidizes and protects the metal. It never needs painting and will last for several hundred years.
I love when the Biden admin does things like this.. It gains the Republican party another 100k to 1 million new registered republican voters for next time around
A President cannot directly sell government property without authorization from Congress; the power to dispose of government property, including selling it, primarily rests with Congress under the Constitution, specifically Article IV, Section 3, Clause 2 (the Property Clause) which states that Congress has the power to "dispose of" federal property; however, the President can initiate the process of selling surplus government property through the General Services Administration, following established procedures and with Congressional oversight.
So if they're put up, they're good, but if they sit in a desert, they're rusted too much? Things dont rust in the desert, and these parts are very heavy steel and dont rust away in a few years. I call B.S.
Wait. So Texas will only buy the pieces that are not all rusted up and look crappy. But yet that same steel will sit out side in the same elements and the same state forever as a wall??. So what's the difference??
*Well, young lady, if you and your crew were "journalists", you' would be asking WHY auction Website was "taken down"??? And what's happening with the materials, etc. Also Dan Patrick is an Idiot **2:04** Just because it's "rusty" and has "cement" on it doesn't mean it's not usable or "scrap"! Guess he never heard of sand blasting, chiseling, paint, etc.?*
That’s what a grinder is for. I’ve worked in the steel industry. Operating tube, plate lasers and structural saws as well as sales. Beyond my own business I also fabricate and build cars. They can still use this steel.
This type of Steel is designed to develop a light surface rust only and stop deteriorating after that. That is its chemistry. It is called CORTEN and was developed by United States Steel and is patented by them. Commonly used on water towers, bridges and other structural uses where a high tensile strength material with no coating and no painting requirements and longevity and low Maintenace is desired. Costlier than most structural steels, It's the right material for this job.
Thats stealing tax payers money
Call Ritchie bros auctions and demand they give it back. Or face the wrath of the American people. I did and many more need to
Need the number you called,maybe furnish it to all something logical has to be done and your idea the best yet!
So the lefts overs are not left overs. They are the unfinished wall. Wtf
They are rusty 6- or 7-year-old steel parts! Contract calls for new steel!
@@samuelreno-uq9yv And who's fault is that, Einstein? Why should taxpayers have to shell out money for new steel?? The other steel is PAID FOR.
She's an uneducated pawn
Things DON'T RUST in Arizona . Got a 40 year old truck with ZERO RUST from Yuma ...
@@samuelreno-uq9yvsurface rust means absolutely nothing. Any bare steel will get that. Just clean it off and finish it.
The American taxpayers have already paid for this
And it laid there and got rusty! The contract is for the workers to be welding clean steel! Not old rusty!
@@samuelreno-uq9yv Go away, Sammy. Your comments are ridiculous.
@@samuelreno-uq9yv seek help dude
@@samuelreno-uq9yv No Thanks to Sleepy Joe Biden stopping the production.
@@WayneGreen-r6zthank you!
What gives Brandon the right to sell what CONGRESS authorized the money to buy, for a specific reason.
With taxpayer dollars. Now Brandon is SWIMMING IN "IT", instead of stepping in "it".
You trumper need to do some research . SMF
@@denverwhitehead3235we have research….4 years of the debacle & the border czar, border idiot!

It would be similar to standing up installed.
It's where we store aircraft also

If that steel was rusted out someone sold the government sheet metal for an automotive. Seems like someone is telling a big one.
And with todays price to have it made, I don't see how they can say it's not worth it. You are still going to have shipping costs for the new panels. This is the kind of crap DOGE come in although we should have people working in the depts with enough common sense to realize it. This is the problem when you put lawyers in office.
“F” DemonRats and Joe Biden’s administration, the entire Biden Administration should be put on trial for Treason.

EXACTLY. Great point.
The auctioneers are selling what
is effectively stolen property, has
anyone pointed that out.
It would be a shame if the auctioneers were arrested. R
Another 10% for the Big guy? What a disgrace.
We fight the enemy in other countries, yet we can't fight them in our country. WHY.
We don't stick together like we should!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
How is this "excess" border wall material if the wall hasn't been put up?
The department of defense had to do it because the Biden administration…… that resolution is literally from 2023. January 20th can’t come fast enough
Fjb, fkh
What Texas can do is sees ownership of the steel slats and move them to military bases in Texas mainly national guard basis and then tie the whole thing up in court until January

They made their own law in 2023😂😂😂
Shows you how f up our government is incl the pentagon

It is USA Citizians wall we paid for it Build it now ya idiots.
Who gets the money from selling the border wall and our oil reserves?
Some crooked crook!!!!!!!!!!!
It was a political act as it was written in to the Budget. The Budget was created by Politicians.
Stupidity. Rust is not an issue, not at all. Put them up.
evicted squatter doing all he can to vandalize the house before getting thrown out
just another example of putting BS into these bills instead single item bills
This is insain! How ? Put these treasonous cowards in PRISON!…..
Sell sections of THE WALL only after the wall has been completed.. NOT before! This is Taxfraud...101
We have a federal govt staffed wholey by the Keystone Cops,from the Whitehouse to Congress.
I love when the Biden admin does things like this.. It gains the Republican party another 100k to 1 million new registered republican voters for next time around
If people's memories will last that long.
BS!!! Are they going to refund that money back to the taxpayers???

Use his Delaware home for funding
The fact that provision was shoved into the defense bill in 2023 was a political act
Don't forget 10% for "The Big" on this deal either. 😂🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Then push the roadblock out of the way. If y'all don't know how to do that, I can.
How is this "EXCESS" border wall when the wall has not been completed?
So if they're put up, they're good, but if they sit in a desert, they're rusted too much? Things dont rust in the desert, and these parts are very heavy steel and dont rust away in a few years. I call B.S.
When the job is done then you get rid of what's left, the department of defense sells weapons to other countries for profit. Dam lire
We the taxpayers own that fence.
Not extra it's unfinished
Lock FJB up!!
Good job reporting!
no doubt a democRAT made that ruling
Fjb
I call “Bullshit “ since 2023 pssssssh
It been paid for so much for working together them demarats 😅
Leave it to Dems to put that clause in the bill
B should be in jail for this.
We need all this pieces for the wall up north California
Every liberal Californian needs to wear a shock collar so they can’t leave to screw up other places.😁
Has this administration made any sense or done anything right?NO and they arent going start now actually they are making things worse😢
Godspeed to January 20th!!❤🎉
🤣😂 The BIG GUY gets 10 Percent 💵💸💵..
HIS BOY TOY ZELENSKY, in UKRAINE get's the Rest $$$💸💵💸💵...🤡🤣🤣🫏🤡🫏🤡🫏
Wait. So Texas will only buy the pieces that are not all rusted up and look crappy. But yet that same steel will sit out side in the same elements and the same state forever as a wall??. So what's the difference??
Probably mr burns idea from the Simpsons aka Biden
Steel doesnt rot in the desert. If that were true. The wall itself would also be rusted and no good. Dan Patric is wrong
Can they be charged?
It is not leftover it never used for this project
They sell it for nothing they sell it back for double
Good reporting !
DONT WORRY THIS ALL GETS FIXED IN 90 DAYS SAME AS CASH
Yup taxpayers are crime!
Can states sue to block?
the rust does not ruin those wall parts.they are laying in the desert.they could lay there for 25 years and still be good. FJB. and the dems.
RUST! really! they will rust in place but as thick as the steel is a little surface rust will have no effect on strength.
Obiden has sold out the rest of America.... Why not the wall too ?
GOOD FOR the land Commissioner for her help. And when TRUMP get in he can Close the Border And stop this crap of people coming in.
Stop stop stop
You an American you should not buy it
Build new wall let them keep what they bought
its out of control.
Y que Les van a ser a los que.vendieron estas partes del Muro

Why does Trump keep saying “…it’s almost criminal”? It is? Or it isn’t? Which it’s it?
He's basically giving everyone the "heads up" without slandering JBiden.
The enemies within. Trump nailed it again.
Brandon is going to cost Mexico some money dealing with this also.
Good for Biden
It is already paid for. Wtf
Christmas is getting expensive Biden needs our help.
There's my taxes going down the drain, thanks dotard, 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
I want my money back!!!!!!
Hey Mike
What is not true?
Stupid but that's biden and harris....omg
Biden and his administration is like a cold sore you can’t get rid of fast enough
Even if you are a Trump hating democrat, you should be pissed as well. That was your tax money too you know.
Fencing the farm
Treason
BS
Dems are strange
This country sucks
That's a joke
😂
Thought Mexico pd for it hahaha sell it all
Take the locks off your home
@glennhibben775. Why

Stupid comment. Grow up.
Stupid says what stupid knows, that's all.
Chump Trump get the hell out of the spending bill that Speaker Mike already agreed to and stop holding up my paycheck!
Ah-HA! So the truth comes out. Take a hike, Sammy.
Little piggy with his snout in the public trough
Get your hand off my wallet
DOGE should make note of your position and see if it needs to be eliminated. What is it that you do….be specific

Fabulous Donald Trump !!!!
Right back at ya db
Not even if you were better looking, besides, it appears that you prefer men over women...
Poser Americans are told to hate what is good for our Nation. TDS SUFFERERS.

IT IS OLD AND RUSTY! CONTRACT IS FOR WELDING NEW CLEAN STEEL!
That’s what a grinder is for. I’ve worked in the steel industry. Operating tube, plate lasers and structural saws as well as sales. Beyond my own business I also fabricate and build cars. They can still use this steel.
You've already commented here. Don't be obtuse.
@ uh oh
Don't comment on things you know absolutely nothing about. Grind the F#@king rust off and quit being a cheerleader! Common sense!
