Reuters: Exclusive: Trump team seeks agency records on border barriers, surveillance
In a wide-ranging request for documents and analysis, President-elect Donald Trump's transition team asked the Department of Homeland Security last month to assess all assets available for border wall and barrier construction.
The team also asked about the department's capacity for expanding immigrant detention and about an aerial surveillance program that was scaled back by the Obama administration but remains popular with immigration hardliners. And it asked whether federal workers have altered biographic information kept by the department about immigrants out of concern for their civil liberties.
The requests were made in a Dec. 5 meeting between Trump's transition team and Department of Homeland Security officials, according to an internal agency memo reviewed by Reuters. The document offers a glimpse into the president-elect's strategy for securing the U.S. borders and reversing polices put in place by the Obama administration.

Just make sure his companies doing things in Mexico can get stuff back to the US.
I assure you the biggest outcry over the wall/fence construction will not be about the people but about the wildlife that uses these north/south corridors. Expect a 60 minutes expose about the deer, Mountain Lions, and Jaguars that will be cut off from natural migratory routs by the coming construction...
