Ted Cruz wants to build the border wall using a different kind of brick.

The Republican senator from Texas is proposing the US use cocaine-tainted money forfeited by Mexican drug lord Joaquín “El Chapo” Guzmán to pay for President Donald Trump’s proposed wall on the nation’s southern border.

Cruz introduced a bill — called Ensuring Lawful Collection of Hidden Assets to Provide Order, or ELCHAPO — Tuesday that would repurpose $14 billion in assets the feds plan to squeeze out of Guzman to fund the project, Axios first reported.

“Fourteen billion dollars will go a long way toward building a wall that will keep Americans safe and hinder the illegal flow of drugs, weapons, and individuals across our southern border,” he said.

Guzman was extradited to the US earlier this year and pleaded not guilty to a 17-count indictment charging him with manufacturing and distributing heroin, cocaine, methamphetamine and marijuana, as well as money laundering.
