President Donald Trump Orders Construction Of Border Wall

The President of the United States, Donald Trump has on Wednesday started plans to commence the construction of the border wall.

 Donald trump signed two executive orders directing the construction of a wall on the US-Mexico border, boosting border patrol forces and increasing the number of immigration enforcement officers who carry out deportations.

 The orders also call for stripping sanctuary cities of federal grant funding and announced sweeping new criteria that could make many more undocumented immigrants priorities for deportation.

 Trump said in a Tweet, “Beginning today, the united States of America gets back control of its borders.”

Trump has repeatedly promised that Mexico will reimburse US taxpayers for the construction costs, the suggestion Mexican officials have rejected out of hand.
