WTF is going on. I am tired of not winning.

U.S. Customs and Border Protection has put up just 1.7 miles of fencing with the $1.57 billion that Congress appropriated last year for President Donald Trump’s wall along the Mexican border, a federal judge was told.

A lawyer for the Democrat-controlled U.S. House of Representatives provided the information Tuesday to the judge in Oakland, California, who is weighing requests from 20 state attorneys general and the the Sierra Club to block Trump from using funds not authorized by Congress to build the wall.

"The administration recently provided updated information to Congress on the status of its efforts as of April 30, 2019," the attorney, Douglas Letter, said in a court filing. "Based on that updated information, it appears that CBP has now constructed 1.7 miles of fencing with its fiscal year 2018 funding."

That was 3/4 of a mile more than the administration reported at the end of February, Letter said.

Meanwhile, just so everyone understands, by the Administration's own estimation there are 4,000 illegal migrant families per day crossing the southern border.

That is a million and a half families per year. TRUMP is losing on immigration, folks.

Much of the Wall being built at the Southern Border is a complete demolition and rebuilding of old and worthless barriers with a brand new Wall and footings. Problem is, the Haters say that is not a new Wall, but rather a renovation. Wrong, and we must build where most needed....

Also, tremendous work is being done on pure renovation - fixing existing Walls that are in bad condition and ineffective, and bringing them to a very high standard!

Are you under the impression that they spent all 1.6 billion on that portion of the wall or being willfully obtuse to mislead readers the way the article you linked is doing?

Just based on the wording of the quoted part they didn't make it sound like it was all used. However, reeeeeesistors don't have time for reading comprehension.
