Great Replacement Update / Duranty-Matthews Edition: Hispanic AXIOS Scribe Says Open Border Claims Are A “Myth”

Stalin had his Duranty. Castro had his Matthews. Traitor Joe Biden has Russell Contreras of Axios Latino. The same day that Fox News’ Bill Melugin reported that southwest border agents collared 270,000 illegals trying to cross the border in September, Contreras actually claimed that the “open border” alarm from conservatives is just a “myth.” As Bill Buckley once said to a guest on Firing Line, “I won’t insult your intelligence by suggesting that you really believe what you just said.”

Any day now, CBP should be releasing the border numbers for the month of September.
Per our CBP sources, those numbers will show almost 270,000 migrant encounters, the highest single month ever recorded, & will finish FY’ 23 w/ around 2.47 million encounters, a new record again.…

After claiming that conservatives are retailing that “myth,” Contreras’ Treason Lobby propaganda piece offered a condescending “reality check.”

Since 1992, the U.S. has quadrupled the number of Border Patrol agents — from less than 5,000 to nearly 20,000 today.

The wide-open southwest border explains all that.

Complained Melugin:

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.

Maybe Contreras doesn’t know that Biden has released millions of “migrants” to roam free with no fear of deportation (100,000 in the first 20 days of September alone), Maybe he doesn’t know that 18,000 gotaways slipped past border agents in the first 16 days of fiscal 2024, which began October 1. That’s 1,125 illegals every day.

Over 18K known gotaways in the first 16 days of FY24. These are individuals whose identities & purpose we do not know. That is why you need every Border Patrol agent to be in the field and on patrol. pic.twitter.com/uQlRgR76HQ

Of course Contreras knows. His piece isn’t just false. It’s embarrassing.

If the communist Mainstream Media are going to lie, they could at least not treat us like idiots.
