Biden Under Investigation By GAO For Halting Billions Of Dollars To Finish Border Wall

Joe Biden’s problems regarding the southern border just got worse.

Biden is “under investigation” for halting billions of dollars in payments that were approved and set to be paid to private companies selected to finish President Donald Trump’s border wall.

Politico reported:

On his first day in office, Biden hit pause on billions of dollars set to be spent on his predecessor’s long-touted barrier between the U.S. and Mexico while his administration figured out the next steps for the money.

Now the Government Accountability Office is launching a review to determine whether the new president possibly broke the law by freezing the money in violation of budget rules designed to keep Congress in control of the cash flow, the federal watchdog confirmed this week.

The probe highlights the challenge presidents have historically faced in fulfilling campaign promises that require money to be spent — or suspended — at odds with Congress’ intent.
