The Trump administration has not built any walls to protect previously unbarricaded sections of America’s southern border, U.S. Customs and Border Protection confirmed exclusively to DailyMail.com on Thursday…
Border barriers erected between the U.S. and Mexico since Inauguration Day 2017 have consisted of supplements to existing walls and replacements for outmoded or decreipt barriers.
But ‘[t]he first new wall project, where no barrier currently exists, is anticipated to start in April,’ CBP spokesman Roger Maier said in an email. He identified Hidalgo County as the construction project’s location, a border zone along a meandering 50-mile stretch of the Rio Grande.
