Actual Headline: “Border Patrol Admits It’s Responsible for Open Floodgates in Arizona Border Wall”

The US Border Patrol has now admitted it’s responsible for the decision to leave giant flood gates in the border wall wide open — giving thousands of illegal immigrants an easy opportunity to stream into Arizona.
After some initial finger-pointing at other federal agencies, the agency took ownership for making the call.
“USBP makes the final decision on opening gates based on operational conditions and forecasted weather,” the agency said a statement to The Post.
Cartels are exploiting the situation, dropping off migrants by the busload so they can casually walk into the US through the open doors and hand themselves over to border agents, as The Post witnessed firsthand west of remote Lukeville, Ariz., last weekend.
