Liberal media organization Axios is trying to gaslight Americans into thinking that reports on Democrat President Joe Biden’s open border policies are a “myth.”
The outlet deceitfully claims that “conservatives are falsely claiming that anyone can get into the U.S. without much hassle.”
The article goes on to argue that “conservative pundits and politicians” are pushing “false” claims that “Democrats support ‘open border’ policies.”
The article goes on to connect Rep. Jim Jordan (R-OH) to these purportedly “inaccurate” assertions concerning the border. Jordan is currently vying for the position of House speaker, according to Axios, which also criticizes the congressman.
Jordan is currently “seeking the role of House speaker,” Axios notes while smearing the congressman.
The report continues by giving a supposed “reality check” by listing reasons why the border is allegedly “more fortified than it’s ever been.”
By using the term "open border," conservatives are suggesting that anyone can get into the U.S. without much hassle. But the reality is the southern border is more fortified than it's ever been.

The Axios article additionally asserts that their “examination of news reports revealed that the ‘open border’ rhetoric gained prominence during the Obama administration as conservatives sought to obstruct proposed immigration reform.”
Reporter Bill Melugin, who has been covering the border for years, responded strongly to the report. Melugin, as previously reported by Slay News, has produced numerous eye-opening reports from the border that have often been disregarded by the liberal mainstream media. He criticized Axios for not engaging with Border Patrol agents and overlooking the warnings of CBP leaders regarding border security.
This is so bad. You can tell whoever wrote this hasn’t spent much time at the border or hasn’t bothered talking to the agents tasked with patrolling it.
Ask the 1.6 million + known gotaways how difficult it was to get in w/ chunks of the border unpatrolled while agents process. https://t.co/D4QcBsZmBv— Bill Melugin (@BillMelugin_) October 17, 2023
As reported earlier, numerous foreign nationals have been illegally crossing the border daily. Recent revelations indicate that gates at the Southern Border were intentionally left open, enabling migrants to enter the United States freely. This influx includes foreign nationals from various countries, including those from high-risk nations with potential ties to terrorism.

Overwhelmed and outnumbered border agents and now practically helpless to stop them.
“We thought the agents were going to tell us something,” one Ecuadorean migrant told reporters after illegally crossing the border, as Slay News recently reported.
“But we just walked in.”
On stunned migrant from Cuba laughed:
“It was so easy to get into the U.S.
“Nothing like our journey through Mexico,” she added.
“That part was hard.
“I thought there was going to be more security.”
