The Biden administration is quietly selling parts intended for extending the wall along the southern border, according to a <a href="https://nypost.com/2023/08/19/biden-sells-border-wall-parts-to-thwart-gop-push-to-use-them/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">report</a> from The New York Post. 
An online auction house called GovPlanet has sold over 80 steel parts originally intended for the border wall, making around $2 million since April. More lots will be auctioned off later this month as some critics say Biden is getting rid of the unused parts before House Republicans can pass a bill requiring they be used to extend the border wall, according to the Post.
Last month, the Democrat-controlled Senate <a href="https://apnews.com/article/senate-defense-bill-russia-bipartisan-9529180a3c79aa3c28d96bd074983e45" target="_blank" rel="noopener">passed</a> its defense appropriations package that included a Republican-sponsored bill aimed at forcing the Biden administration to address the border crisis by extending the wall. Republican senators blasted the Biden administration for selling the parts for an extended border wall as illegal immigrants flood across the southern border. 
“The pennies made from selling the border wall will not be enough to pay the families who suffer from a criminal act committed by someone who crossed our open borders during the Biden administration,” said Sen. James Lankford (R-OK).
Sen. Roger Wicker (R-MS), who co-sponsored the bill known as the “Finish It Act,” told the Post that Biden’s move was “outrageous, behind-the-scenes maneuvering.”
“This sale is a wasteful and ludicrous decision by the Biden administration that only serves as further proof they have no shame,” Wicker said. 
The Post reported that the GovPlanet auction schedule picked up significantly in May after Wicker introduced the Finish It Act and increased again days after the Senate passed the defense package. House Republicans must pass a matching version of the bill before it becomes law. 
Republicans said that around $300 million in taxpayer-funded border wall parts have been abandoned since Biden became president. Money from the sale of the unused border wall parts reportedly goes back to the Pentagon.

In a report earlier this month, a GovPlanet source <a href="https://www.thedailyupside.com/exclusive-pentagon-sells-off-trump-border-wall/">told</a> The Daily Upside, “We are legally not allowed to mention these are the border wall materials, or we could lose our jobs. But that’s what they are – 110 percent.”
Since President Joe Biden took office, illegal immigrants have crossed into the U.S. in record numbers with estimates exceeding five million. According to <a href="https://www.cbp.gov/newsroom/stats/southwest-land-border-encounters">data</a> from U.S. Customs and Border Protection, there have been 1,973,092 southwest land border encounters so far in the fiscal year 2023, which began in October.
