Texas received a massive win on Wednesday after the federal court of appeals ruled that the Lonestar state is allowed to construct a border wall using razor wire to keep illegal immigrants from unlawfully entering the United States. Lame-duck President Joe Biden previously ordered authorities to cut the razor wire down.

So, to call this a major win for Texas would be an understatement.
At the same time, President-elect Donald Trump announced on Wednesday that Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum Pardo has agreed to stop the massive flow of illegal immigrants into the United States after he threatened to impose 25 percent tariffs.
