A joint U.S.-Mexico topographical survey found that 787 feet of the 995-feet-long buoy line set up by Texas are in Mexico.

    Sounds like Mexico can just take down most of this thing.

    Edit: As a US citizen, I support Mexico’s immigration services to detain any Texas construction workers that illegally cross the border to service this thing.

    I also would support the governor of this region of Mexico to put these construction workers on a bus and drop them deep in the heart of Mexico somewhere.

      They should. Send Abbott a bill for polluting their waterway too, while they’re at it.

        Probably the only reason Mexico hasn’t already pulled it out is because they don’t want to waste money that they know will never be reimbursed to them.

        Maybe the US will take it down and bill Texas themselves.

          Removing it has to be cheaper than installing it. Bleed Abbott if he wants to play this game.

      As funny as it would be, taking it out on construction workers who probably didn’t choose to be there seems a little unfair

      They should just be drowned. That’s the purpose for this barrier, so I think it’d be fair to drown anyone working to construct it. (I don’t condone drowning the workers, but the workers should stand up against their employers due to drowning risk. If they don’t listen, maybe they should have an “accident” and “drown” instead and the workers take control.)
