President Donald Trump’s Border Patrol chief has announced that construction of the wall along the Southern Border has now resumed.
President Joe Biden and his administration worked overtime to dismantle Trump’s border wall project that he launched during his first term in the White House.
However, that is all changing now.
Among the many promises kept to the American people within his first week of being back in office, Trump’s Department of Homeland Security (DHS) announced this week that border wall construction has resumed, according to Breitbart.
Gaps in the border wall in areas around Deming, New Mexico are already being patched thanks to Trump’s new Border Patrol chief, Michael Banks.
Banks made the announcement over the weekend and elicited mountains of praise from Trump’s supporters and from Americans who are sick and tired of what’s happening at the southern U.S. border.
In an X post over the weekend, Banks highlighted what’s already taking place barely a week into the Trump administration.
“USBP actively strengthens border security by refining strategies to deliver effective impedance and denial capabilities, addressing illegal cross-border activity head-on,” he wrote on X.
“Efforts like installing wall panels to fill critical gaps in Deming, New Mexico, exemplify our commitment to enhancing infrastructure and operational effectiveness.
“Agents drive these solutions by leveraging advanced technology and their ingenuity to adapt to evolving challenges, ensuring a more secure and managed border.”

Trump has several other border wall-related initiatives set to kick off soon.
“The expanded concrete-and-steel wall will complement Trump’s many other border measures,” Breitbart noted.
“Those changes include the deployment of more border guards and the rollout of legal changes that minimize loopholes in the border law.”
Experts believe the measures will undoubtedly stem the flow — perhaps significantly — of illegal aliens crossing into the United States.
Many users across social media reacted to Banks’ announcement.
“Awesome to see this happening again!!!” one X user wrote.
Another X user wrote:
“Hopefully the technology will include AI monitoring on the border.
“So happy will be protected again!”
While stopping the flow of illegals entirely will be difficult under any circumstances, it’s these types of measures taken that Americans want to see.
