Trump Is Bulldozing a National Park for His Border Wall

from Bulwark Takes · host The Bulwark

Tim Miller sits down with Isaac Saul, founder of Tangle, to discuss Donald Trump’s plans to build a border wall through and around Big Bend National Park in West Texas. Saul explains why local residents, business owners, sheriffs, and even some Trump-supporting officials are pushing back against the project. Tim and Isaac discuss the environmental damage from construction, the enormous $19.4 billion cost for the new border barriers, and the surprising possibility that new roads and infrastructure could actually make it easier for migrants to navigate the area.Read more from Isaac’s work at Tangle: https://www.readtangle.com/author/isaac-saul/
