BREAKING: #BorderWall construction crews at Coronado Memorial are plowing full steam ahead. Instead of demobilizing per yesterday’s @POTUS proclamation, they’re continuing to excavate & bulldoze mountaintops thru critical jaguar habitat. @DHSgov, call off this destruction NOW.

1. K&R...

2. They want money! They get none and should be held accountable

For the damage they are doing monetarily.

[Kaleva]

7. Because of the contract, they wouldn't get paid if they weren't doing what they are doing.

[dameatball]

15. Yup, and likely that the more they get done before it is rescinded. they will get paid for.

[former9thward]

3. I don't know about that specific situation but an EO can't break a contract.

If the companies have contracts to do what they are doing then they can proceed to the end of the contract. Otherwise the federal government would have to pay them in full.

4. Instead of paying off the contract and sending them home... how about fulfilling

the contract but adding an addendum that reads "or dismantling the wall".

[jimfields33]

5. Ok. Not exactly easy to do once original contract was signed.

Both sides of the contract would have to renegotiate the entire contract and sign.

[OMGWTF]

9. I was a contract manager for decades and wrote addendums to contracts every damn day.

You don't renegotiate the entire thing. Sheesh!

[groundloop]

18. Yep, it's just a 'change order' that both sides agree to.

[lamp_shade]

26. Similar experience with a company whose business was mostly with the govt.....

Nearly every contract was modified numerous times with addendums, change orders, or other modifications.

6. Renegotiate the contract to a different location... Mar-A-Lago.

Renegotiate the contract to a different location... Mar-A-Lago.

Use eminent domain laws to take a ten foot swath inside the perimeter of Mar-A-Lago and build the wall there to keep illegals out of there.

Trump has used illegals (RW term) at his golf clubs.

He has several properties that could use protection.

[Traildogbob]

11. Keep illegal seditionist in.

Build that wall. I believe most of our allies throughout the world would pay for a wall around Mar-A-Logo to incarcerate the entire trump gene pool. Toss in Rudy, Bannon and Fox Noise.

[keithbvadu2]

16. Bonus! Might even be worth a tax credit.

Bonus! Might even be worth a tax credit.

20. Thinking Angela Merkel

May foot the whole bill. We helped end their Nazis, she owes us. We can make a welcoming beach landing on Florida shores. They will be seen as liberators. MAGA like when we destroyed Nazis.

[Traildogbob]

22. Play the hits

Build that wall.... Who’s gonna pay.....lock em up.

[bottomofthehill]

21. Renegotiate the contract to a different location The USCapitol

So we never see the images of insurrection that we saw two weeks ago

[Hermit-The-Prog]

8. Call, write, email, fax or send smoke signals to your Rep and Sen. Get a stop work order.

[CitizenProle]

10. Stop Work Order

The DHS Contracting Officer for that specific contract must issue a stop work order for that particular effort. The EO provides authorization but must wend its way thru the layers of bureaucracy

[LiberalArkie]

12. On Twitter a person said the EO said stop work within 1 week and it has not been

1 week. I guess they are trying to get as much done as they can in a week. And then bill the US

[soothsayer]

13. Effers

[machoneman]

14. Send in the 1st Armored Division's M-1 tanks! Fire at a few heavy bulldozers and they will stop!

[SayItLoud]

17. Might be a Federal crime. When are we going to start arresting them? nt

[Kaleva]

25. Arrest for what? For doing a job the Federal Govt. contracted them to do?

[SpankMe]

19. They're working to an existing contract

Sometimes, this stuff can't be turned off at the flick of a switch.

Also, it's only day 3 of the Biden presidency. (726 days to go.) Let's Give 'em some time to act on all the Trump foolishness.

[Celerity]

27. ?

Also, it's only day 3 of the Biden presidency. (726 days to go.)

2024 is a leap year

so

4 times 365 days plus 1 and then minus 3

equals

1,458 days to go

[greenjar_01]

23. They should receive zero payment for any day after the effective date of the Exec Order

The funds have been moved back to the accounts designated by the Congress.

[mountain grammy]

24. destroying mountains to build a 30 ft wall

American exceptionalism.. exceptionally stupid.
