Arizona's makeshift border wall made out of shipping containers is TOPPLED as Gov. Doug Ducey blames 'criminals': 150 migrants found in truck in Mexico on way to Texas crossing
2022-08-19
[Daily Mail, where America gets its news]
  • A makeshift border wall along Yuma, Arizona, was toppled over as Gov. Doug Ducey reportedly blames criminals for the incident

  • Ducey had ordered 60 shipping containers to be used as walls along the area, which has seen a spike in illegal immigration

  • The project was done on Sunday, with workers discovering the downed containers the following morning and blaming the incident on the wind

  • A spokesperson for Ducey claimed the incident was intentional and set to sabotage the state's work in closing the gaps along its border fencing

  • The incident comes after Mexican and border patrol officials stopped a truck carrying 150 migrants heading to Texas

#7  Fill the bottom containers with radioactive waste. If it's high grade enough, they won't make it over the top.
