The Biden Administration’s border crisis is getting worse every day.
Thousands of illegals are walking into the United States on a daily basis through floodgates that have been left open, turning the Tucson post into the primary point of unauthorized entry into the country. As reported by the New York Post, these floodgates, totaling 114, were deliberately welded wide open by officials from the United States.
Authorities in Arizona have given the green light to every migrant from Mexico to China to enter the U.S. illegally by literally welding the gates to the state open.
As reported by the New York Post, a large metal pin, originally intended to assist in keeping the gates open as required, has been welded to the gates, so they can’t be shut. The reason is supposedly to allow water to flow unobstructed during the monsoon season and to facilitate antelope migration, as stated by officials.
According to The Post’s report, an average of 1,400 immigrants daily, coming from places as far away as China, are simply walking through the gates, while the overwhelmed border patrol finds itself powerless to stop them.
Each of the 114 gates, left open for nearly two months, consists of 12-foot-wide doors. Smugglers transport groups of migrants to the Mexican side of the border, after which the migrants easily proceed on foot.
An Ecuadorian migrant shared with The Post, “We thought the agents were going to tell us something. But we just walked in.”
Another migrant from Cuba remarked, “It was so easy to get into the U.S.”

According to Border Patrol officials interviewed by The Post, the order to leave the gates open came from federal agencies, including the National Park Service. Attempts were made to close the gates, but an order was issued to keep them open due to the rain.
Nevertheless, the agents noted that the rain arrived later than expected, conveniently creating a dry route for the migrants.
A source shared with The Post, “Everything changed since [President Biden] took over. This part of the border wall was built four years ago. Now we’re just letting people through.”
