I did get a couple more interesting shots, though not of migrants this time. The U.S. wall casts a shadow on more than just the desert.

Maintaining my Christmas tradition, this afternoon I went down to the U.S. border wall near Lukeville, AZ to do some photography. I was here two years ago and wrote a story about it mikaljakubal.com/christmas-at-
Now, it is deserted. The groups of hundreds of asylum-seekers per day coming over are no more.

The aid stations have been removed. It feels desolate.

>>He estimated that the wire had gone up between October 21 and November 3. (As of publication time, the DHS had not returned an email seeking comment.)

The nonprofit noted in its post that border wall construction, including blasting, is currently taking place to the west of the memorial, and warned hikers visiting the area to expect “auditory and visual impacts.” The DHS plans to construct an additional border wall at the terminus itself in August 2026; the ATA noted that trail closures “may be necessary” at that time.<<

RE
triggers a ground stop this morning affecting flights

This is what ⭕ended the Jan 25 2019 , the and the airline employees (see Wikipedia info, image ALT TEXT)

On January 25, 2019, Trump endorsed a stopgap bill to reopen the government until February 15 to allow for negotiations to take place on an appropriations bill.[15] However, he reiterated his demand for border wall funding and said that he would shut down the government again or declare a national emergency and use military funding to build the wall if Congress did not appropriate the funds by February 15.[15][16] With a veto-proof majority, both houses of Congress passed an appropriations bill on February 14 that included $1.375 billion for 55 miles of steel fencing along the border. The following day, Trump declared a national emergency to fund the wall, after being unsatisfied with the funding in the appropriations bill.[17]

The end of the shutdown on January 25 occurred several hours after the Federal Aviation Administration was forced to limit flights at several major airports due to a high incidence of sick leave taken by air traffic controllers, who had been required to work during the shutdown without receiving paychecks. Though never claimed as a strike action,[18] the development was widely credited as precipitating the shutdown's end.[19][20]

Trump's approval rating dropped during the shutdown.[21][22] A majority of Americans opposed exploitation of the shutdown as a negotiating strategy and held Trump responsible for the shutdown: A CBS News poll found that 71% of Americans considered the border wall "not worth the shutdown"

#billionaire and #Trump mega #donor Timothy #Mellon “contributed” $130 million to the #US #military to help pay #troops during the #GOP shutdown. Trump praised him as “a great #patriot,” but the math doesn’t lie: $130 million covers less than 7 hours of the #military payroll or around $100 per soldier. “That’s 6.7 hours of pay for our troops." Mellon also gave #trump $53 million for his #texas #borderwall nytimes.com/2025/10/25/us/poli

Often, the money arrived after little courtship or warning. When #TimothyMellon donated >$50 million in securities to help #Texas build a #BorderWall, Gov. #GregAbbott’s political aides were surprised by the gift…. (Mellon wrote that he liked to donate to government entities in part because the gifts are tax-deductible.)

Today in Labor History August 27, 1918: The U.S. Army, including Buffalo Soldiers, fought Mexican Carrancistas in the Battle of Ambos Nogales, the only battle of World War I that was fought on American soil. It is alleged that German forces were supporting the Mexican Revolutionaries and that two German soldiers died in the battle. However, the battle was precipitated by cross border firing into the U.S. during a sectarian fight between in the armies of Venustiano Carranza and Pancho Villa, who were struggling for control of Nogales Sonora (Mexican Nogales), as well as by racist, anti-Mexican hysteria in the U.S. that was being whipped up by the media. In the aftermath, the U.S. constructed the first permanent wall on its southern border, and began building walls at many other border crossings, as well.

Coverage of Sec. Kristi Noem’s visit to New Mexico. She toured flash flood damage in Ruidoso, and then came down to the border to announce renewed plans to paint the entire southern border wall black.

Another great idea from the genius in the Oval Office, the problem is that they tried this in 2020 and it failed , about a year and a half later the paint peeled off and it didn’t make any difference anyway;

“The entire US-Mexico border wall will be painted black to make it hotter and harder to climb, Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem has said, crediting the idea to Donald Trump.”

So you're going to paint the entire southern border wall black, so it gets hotter so people don't climb it during the day.

wonder how long the heat will persist into the night time. Probably long enough to foul any heat vision cameras border patrol is using to try and pick people up.

It would be hilarious if it weren't such a huge waste of money & part of the overall fuckery going on

On what numbered 🌍 earth are we that kneepads and gloves and 50-75ft ladders do not exist to climb a black-painted metal border wall? #borderwall #border
