<p>The Biden administration is using its final weeks to haul a massive amount of border wall materials away from the southern border to be sold off in a government auction, an apparent effort to hinder President-elect Donald Trump’s effort to secure the border, The Daily Wire has learned.</p>
<p>Videos obtained exclusively by The Daily Wire from a U.S. Customs and Border Patrol agent show unused sections of the wall being hauled away on the back of flatbed trucks from a section of the border just south of Tucson, a hotspot for illegal crossings during the Biden administration. The agent estimates that up to half a mile per day of unused border wall is being moved.</p>
<p>“They are taking it from three stations: Nogales, Tucson, and Three Points,” the border patrol agent, who was granted anonymity to speak freely, told The Daily Wire. “The goal is to move all of it off the border before Christmas.”</p>
<p>Trump made clear during his campaign that he intends to finish construction of the border wall, making use of the materials that have <a href="https://www.nbcnews.com/investigations/trump-harris-border-wall-arizona-rusting-2021-rcna173094" target="_blank" rel="noopener">remained untouched at the border</a> since President Joe Biden took office in 2021. If the material brought to the border during his first term is sold off, it will significantly delay any progress on one of Trump’s flagship campaign promises at the border.</p>

<p>The government contractor, DP Trucking LLC, is transporting the pieces of the wall north on Interstate 19 to Pinal Airpark in Marana, Arizona, where it is being auctioned through GovPlanet, a surplus government equipment auction marketplace.</p>
<p>“They just started taking all the wall that was not used, which is still totally good and usable, and they started taking it northbound,” the agent said. “They’re pulling it all off the border.”</p>
<p>Harold Lambeth, the owner of the trucking company, confirmed to The Daily Wire in a phone call that his company is transporting the unused border wall sections north away from the construction sites. He said he is unable to disclose further information about the work.</p>
<p>Video of the GovPlanet auction site where the material is being taken shows seemingly endless piles of unused border wall material. Another video, taken from one of the construction sites on the border, shows DP Trucking LLC trucks passing through with the same style of unused border wall stacked up the back of their flatbeds.</p>
<p>The <a href="https://www.govplanet.com/jsp/s/search.ips?sm=0&amp;l2=USA-AZ&amp;k=Steel%20Bollard%20Wall%20Sections&amp;mf=1" target="_blank" rel="noopener">auction website</a> shows that sales occurred as recently as December 4 for precisely the types of materials being pulled off the border. GovPlanet has online auctions set for Dec. 11 and Dec. 18 for more of the border wall material, which is listed on the company’s website as “32.91’ X 7.91’ Steel Bollard Wall Sections w/Grout.”</p>
<p>The bidding for each section of wall panels is set to begin at only $5.00, according to the website.</p>

<p>Rep. Eli Crane (R-AZ), whose congressional district borders the Pinal Airpark where the material is being sold, said the Biden administration is “purposefully hamstringing” Trump before he takes office.</p>
<p>“The Biden Administration is well aware they shouldn’t have reversed the construction of the border wall. If it’s true, they’re purposefully hamstringing an incoming president, it wouldn’t be shocking,” Crane told The Daily Wire. “Why would they want to see President Trump succeed with policies they aggressively sabotaged?”</p>
<p>The long-time border patrol agent has seen political fights play out over the border before, and believes that the Biden administration is trying to stymie Trump’s ability to quickly secure the border as soon as he returns to office.</p>
<p>“When Trump comes back, and he wants to start the border wall all over again, the whole entire funding fight is gonna happen again,” the agent said. “That’s their play. He’s gonna have to fight for this — again.”</p>
<div id="attachment_843025" style="width: 650px" class="wp-caption alignnone"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-843025" class="wp-image-843025 size-full" src="https://dw-wp-production.imgix.net/2024/12/e042219a-eaea-4614-972e-2851c6b9d3d7.jpg" alt="" width="640" height="480" srcset="https://dw-wp-production.imgix.net/2024/12/e042219a-eaea-4614-972e-2851c6b9d3d7.jpg 640w, https://dw-wp-production.imgix.net/2024/12/e042219a-eaea-4614-972e-2851c6b9d3d7-300x225.jpg 300w" sizes=" (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px" /><p id="caption-attachment-843025" class="wp-caption-text">Segment of border wall up for sale in Arizona by GovPlanet</p></div>
<p>The Customs and Border Protection Agency referred The Daily Wire to the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, saying the latter had jurisdiction over the materials until they are erected. From there, The Daily Wire was referred to the Defense Logistics Agency, where an official said the standing policy is to refer all media requests on this to the public affairs team at the Office of the Secretary of Defense. A member of the public affairs team declined to respond to inquiries.</p>
<p>Trump is <a href="https://www.reuters.com/world/us/trumps-day-one-deportations-border-wall-scrapping-biden-humanitarian-programs-2024-11-12/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">expected to use an executive order</a> to unlock funds to restart construction of the border wall that was halted under Biden, with anticipation that it could be one of his day-one actions.</p>
<p>Crane, the Arizona congressman, says the last-minute fire sale by the Biden administration is “a direct affront to the will of the people.”</p>
<p>“The American people gave President Trump a mandate in November, which included the fulfillment of his plans to secure the border,” Crane said. “Any last-ditch attempt to obstruct this mandate by the Biden Administration would be a direct affront to the will of the people.”</p>
