The Trump Department Of Homeland Security is painting large swathes of border fence jet black in order to make them too hot to climb.
Kristi Noem Announced the move Tuesday, noting “Now, if you look at the structure that’s behind me, it’s tall, which makes it very, very difficult to climb, almost impossible. It also goes deep into the ground, which would make it very difficult, if not impossible, to dig under.”
“And today, we are also going to be painting it black,” she added.
? LMAO! Democrats are currently losing their minds over President Trump and Kristi Noem painting the southern border wall BLACK to let it get super hot from the sun.

It's being done so the criminals would burn their hands to the touch if they even tried.
Genius move. ?? pic.twitter.com/U0zGOuW6lm
“That is specifically at the request of the president, who understands that in the hot temperatures down here, when something is painted black, it gets even warmer, and it will make it even harder for people to climb,” Noem added during a press conference in Santa Teresa, N.M.
Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem said the entire southern border wall will be painted black, so it will get hot in the sun and "make it even harder for people to climb."

While the fence now looks a lot cooler, it’s actually way hotter.
“We are going to be painting the entire border wall black,” Noem reiterated.
When asked about criticism that the move could make conditions harsher for migrants, she replied “Don’t touch it. People have a choice.”
Of course, leftists are big mad at this move because they hate secure borders.
We are spending billions to paint an ineffective border wall black just to appease the President.

Imagine what the Republican Party could accomplish if it actually cared about helping people. https://t.co/oTxfsFdPPK
How is the wall ineffective? There are literally zero illegals being released into the country now that Trump is back in office.
It was only ineffective during Biden’s term when large parts of it were left unfinished or even dismantled and sold for $5 on auction sites.
Here are more of them complaining about illegals not being able to get over the border, and yes, it was a bit of a photo op troll exercise that massively triggered them.
Border Barbie strikes again.

Should have painted it Orange.

Sorry, but that is one of the dumbest things that I've heard about in awhile. Have you ever heard of gloves, winter, or nighttime? I wish this was a joke. Ridiculous!

Ya'll are just idiotic & laughable! DOGE needs to investigate this complete waste of money!! ????
Ever hear of gloves? Ever hear of that thing that happens after the sun sets? It's called 'night.' Ever hear of winter?

How about ladders?
so so stupid
News flash. The wall isn’t closed at night. Plus, the wall ends and they can simply go around it. Also there’s ladders, gloves, rope and other tools they can use to get over it. This is just cosmetic and stupid

Conservatives have more ideas to throw into the mix…
This is as close as we can get to that I think ?
— Eric Daugherty (@EricLDaugh) August 19, 2025
I would have added crushed rocks to the paint… making it sharp too

Please put sand in the paint so if they try to climb, it will make them think twice for fear of having to slide down because the wall is too hot. The sand in the paint will also make them think twice.

Put glass shards in the black paint.
