this is the "cbs overnight news." >> a group calling itself we build the wall has been doing what the federal government has been unable or unwilling to do, erect a border along the southern barrier. truth be told, their wall is only going to be half mile long, and when it's done, they'll have enough money for another mile or so. still, they have a gofundme page looking for people to donate. but there is a problem with that. at least one state has opened an investigation into how the gofundmes have been spent. david begnaud from new mexico. >> they want it to be a half mile wide by the time it's done. they say they could complete it by this weekend. 48 hours ago, the mayor showed up and said wait a minute, you don't have the right permits.u .
