MSN is an aggregate site that reprints articles from a lot of sources. American Insider, formerly Business Insider, is a right wing publication created specifically to counter MSM.
The rumor about welding the gates open was started by Ted Cruz. The gates are open, as they were during the Trump administration, to keep flash floods from knocking the wall down.
We can close them if you’d like. You won’t have anything left to complain about after the first good rain.
So now Microsoft news is in for republicans? Oh the humanity. What about their climate czar over at MSN?
IIRC, there is an issue with seasonal flooding and the wall so the gates have to be left open to prevent damage to the wall.
was this welding done in preparation for that storm a couple weeks back? I need more info.
IMPEACH the BUMS! How is this a benefit to America, her citizens and LEGAL Immigrants??
Biden is selling off the Border wall pieces that were not put up and now he is welding open the gates? What is next? Will he start taking down the wall??
The Dems really are trying to take down this country and continue Obama's pledge to fundamentally change it.

They would not weld gates just to open for heavy rains. The wall for this area was not in the path of hurricane Hillary.

I like the fake outrage and article to support it:
"The floodgates, however, open seasonally and predate the Biden administration.
The U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) said in a statement that, throughout the history of the Tucson Sector of the border, it has opened the floodgates during monsoon season and ahead of potential heavy rains to ensure proper drainage and minimize damage to infrastructure." https://www.reuters.com/article/idUSL1N3AC241

So an annual occurrence for years.....
So actual facts from the U.S. Customs and Border Protection should end this thread. But of course, it won't. Can't let actual facts get in the way of a good rant.
MSN reports that Biden’s homeland security has welded border gates OPEN
No, MSN is not reporting, your link it is an Opinion piece from "America Insider"
Claim: The Biden administration has welded border wall gates open near Lukeville, Arizona.
Truth: They opened the flood gates ahead the expected record rainfall from Hurricane Hillary, and obviously it wasn't Bidens call, but the local authorities
biden the terrible, has earned a spot on the list of all time murdering despots, Xi, putin, Kim, Pol Pot, UBL
