Trumps Border Wall Prep Trampling on Private Property Rights
National Butterfly Center Founder, Staff discovered workers with chainsaws on the center's private sanctuary clearing the way for Trump’s border wall in South Texas.
On July 20, Jeffrey Glassberg discovered that the Trump administration planned to build a wall through the National Butterfly Center in South Texas — a 100-acre sanctuary for the monarch butterfly and other threatened species. The founder of the center wasn’t notified in writing by the U.S. Department of Justice, as required by law. Instead, he found out when a group of workers with chainsaws began tearing through specially planted habitat on the privately owned land.
“This is a much bigger issue than the National Butterfly Center,” Glassberg told the Observer. “There’s a procedure the government could follow with due process. But they’ve decided — like with so much else — to just ignore the law, trampling on private property rights. The complete disrespect for the legalities of this country is something that ought to concern every American regardless of how they feel about a border wall.”
The surprise visit came less than a week after July 14, when the Observer revealed that the Trump administration had been secretly planning for six months to build the first segment of border wall through the Santa Ana Wildlife Refuge, which is 19 miles east of the Mission, Texas, butterfly center.

Probably need to build the wall a couple hundred feet tall through this area to make damn sure the Mexican butterflies keep to their side and don't intermingle with the American butterflies.
Yes, this is 
meant to demonstrate the absolute stupidity and recklessness of this damned wall.
I mean fuck, bulldozing thru a national sanctuary, REALLY
for the wall and construct it on Mexican soil.
