Episode Details

Presidio, Texas, is suing the Trump administration over plans to build a border wall atop its vital flood protection levee — a move that could expose the city to deadly flash floods, especially after the devastating 2008 disaster. The lawsuit argues federal agencies skipped required Army Corps of Engineers approval under the Rivers and Harbors Act, and warns that construction without environmental review could be catastrophic. While DHS hasn’t commented, local officials and the Democracy Forward Foundation are sounding the alarm — calling the river a connector, not a divider — as crews already arrive on site, risking irreversible damage to this critical infrastructure.
