Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Secretary Kristi Noem announced in a video filmed at Arizona’s border with Mexico, that construction of the U.S.-Mexico border wall will resume, starting with seven new miles in the U.S. Border Patrol’s Rio Grande Valley Sector.
Standing by the border in Nogales on Sunday, Noem pointed at the wall and said, “You can see where the border wall ends.” She added the construction was beginning that day on seven new miles.
“We’re going to continue to make America safe again,” she said.
DHS posted a similar video on X Monday. It stated, “Under President Trump, border encounters have reached the LOWEST ever recorded. We are stopping the flow of drugs into our communities.” Noem is shown speaking on the video, “This is an announcement to the entire world, America’s borders are closed if you want to come here illegally.”
