Im really interested to see what kind of manual labor workers they get to paint the wall....like you know the US Federal government is gonna go with the cheapest bids, which will most likely be immigrants potentially of illegal status.

would be fuckin hilarious if they painted the US side and completely forgot about the Mexican side.

then when they go to paint the Mexican side, Mexico says, "no, that's our side"

This is the same border wall they've been pulling down with Toyotas?

So she knows someone who sells black paint. Didn't take a lot to figure that out.

maybe I'm thick... but how does black paint prevent someone from climbing a fence?

And Noem said Homeland Security was going to be trying black paint to make the metal hotter.

'K... ish... I mean, I get the physics, but, doesn't this murican know the concept of nighttime?

And how does that stop a ladder?

Right... Because black paint is going to stop them how exactly? "It absorbs the heat, so they will get burns when touching the fence".

Ever heard of night?

Oughta be illegal to be that stupid

So there is a market for white spray paint South of the border? Got my new side hustle!

Where those Epstein files at??

If they make the wall black, won't ICE try to deport it?

All 65 miles of it?

Shit, I didn't realize that angle grinders were so sensitive to black paint.

So good Mexico hasn’t learned about gloves yet… or you know… night time. Phew. Close one.

Add it to the pile of really obviously stupid ideas that can be thwarted with 3 seconds of thought...

Of course nobody in Mexico has ever heard of a tarp...

That clip of her standing in front of it, talking about how tall and deep it is, "almost impossible" to scale or dig under, then triumphantly proclaiming that they're going to paint it black to make it harder to climb. Right after saying it's almost impossible to climb.

Oh, and it's already black.

When I was leaving Mexico after a few months down there in my RV I was diverted from my usual border crossing location (Sonoyta) to a much larger one (Yuma) ~40 min away. I had to wait in a 2 hour line to get to customs, and in that line I was inching forward next to the border wall. In this large city in plain view of everyone, mind you, I watched 4 seperate teams of mexican brothers get over the wall in under 5 min. The magic weapon? Rope 3 of the times, a jank looking ladder the last time. Billions of dollars defeated with a rope. The facepalm would send me into orbit rn.
