🚨 BREAKING: Trump’s bulldozing of Big Bend National Park for a border wall is far more destructive than initially told. Sources confirmed they destroyed the park’s only beaver habitat & have already displaced countless wildlife. How are the people of Texas okay with this?
Dear @SenTedCruz and @JohnCornyn
Why is a Montana contractor whose leadership donated more than $1 million to Trump's campaign and was awarded a $7 billion NO BID contract, currently bulldozing their way through the protected jewel of Texas, Big Bend National Park?
I'm sure your constituents, who take their families there and who cherish our great National Parks that Teddy Roosevelt preserved for future generations, would like to know. https://t.co/RDi05tm4Jl
God already built a wall through Big Bend — it's called the Chisos Mountains.
We don't need to give billions of our tax dollars to out of state vendors.
We don't need to desecrate this sacred land.
We don't need this useless, disgraceful, corrupt Big Bend border wall.
Our state officials are waving a “Come and Take It” flag to the feds.
But unlike the heroes of Gonzales, it’s a flag of surrender. Their silence speaks volumes.
DHS Big Bend Project 5: 156 miles of vehicle barriers. $2.6 billion. Built where vehicles can’t drive across the Rio Grande. I support Border Security 100%, but this isn’t Border Security, it’s a boondoggle.
The only people in favor or a wall or vehicle barriers through Big Bend are those who’ve never once set foot here.
This is not left vs. right. It’s the corrupt politicians & business elite vs. every day Americans who love their public lands & don’t want them destroyed forever.
DHS contractors are bulldozing native vegetation inside Big Bend National Park to build a new "patrol road" & "vehicle barriers" beside an existing road across from 1,500-foot cliffs no human or vehicle could ever cross and NO ONE CAN EXPLAIN WHY THIS IS HAPPENING.
