Original Note:
Misleading. Travis fails to mention that the $2 billion was money taken from the Pentagon budget for military construction projects such as schools for military children and would have only built approx. 43 miles of border wall (estimates were $46 mil per mile of wall). https://www.militarytimes.com/news/pentagon-congress/2021/06/13/biden-to-return-2-billion-diverted-from-pentagon-projects-for-border-wall/ https://www.usnews.com/news/national-news/articles/2021-06-11/biden-to-return-22-billion-in-diverted-border-wall-funds-to-defense-department
