Jared Kushner, Trump's son-in-law and adviser, and government officials want to install cameras to livestream the US-Mexico border wall.

"There will be a wall camera here and it will be available early next year," an unnamed senior official in the administration of President Donald Trump told the Washington Post on November 13.

This initiative to install cameras to stream the wall building scene is supported by Jared Kushner and many White House officials, to promote public support for the wall project between the US border - Mexico Kushner sees the livestream as a way to show that the construction of the border wall is underway.

However, this idea met with opposition from the US Customs and Border Protection (CBP) and the Army Corps of Engineers. The two agencies said border wall construction companies did not support the live streaming of the construction process because they did not want rival companies to see how they worked.

Officials also fear the image captured by the camera could become evidence of U.S. forces violating Mexican sovereignty, as they sometimes have to cross the border to move construction equipment.

Trump and other officials also expressed their desire to have more pictures of the process of building the border wall, something the President can post on Twitter. Some White House officials said Kushner was eager to build the border wall because Trump asked him repeatedly about the issue.

The US-Mexico border wall project is an important commitment in Trump's campaign. However, he struggled to convince Congress to allocate billions of dollars to the wall, forcing the White House to mobilize capital from various sources, mainly the budget for building military works. team.
