The Lukeville Crossing Fiasco

The Lukeville Crossing Fiasco

Here is a little timeline for the Lukeville, AZ US-Mexico border crossing.  Seems it got a bit busy with Cartel Katie Hobbs working with the cartels to flood it with new prospective Democratic voters to be dispersed here.

The above linked article talks about this very border crossing and an actual gun-battle that happened there while it was closed.  Then you'll see below the article about how it gets re-opened a few days after the shootout.

Unbelievable.

Dec. 2, 2023:

"PHOENIX — So many migrants are crossing from Mexico into the United States around remote Lukeville, Arizona, that U.S. officials say they will close the port of entry there so that the operations officials who watch over vehicle and pedestrian traffic going both ways can help Border Patrol agents arrest and process the new arrivals."

December 10, 2023:

"LUKEVILLE, Ariz. (AP) — Gerston Miranda and his wife were among thousands of migrants recently arriving at this remote area on Arizona’s southern border with Mexico, squeezing into the United States through a gap in the wall and walking overnight about 14 miles (23 kilometers) with two school-aged daughters to surrender to Border Patrol agents."

December 10, 2023 (basically the same as above):

"A shift in smuggling routes has brought an influx of migrants here from countries as diverse as Senegal, Bangladesh and China, prompting the Border Patrol to seek help from other federal agencies and drawing scrutiny to an issue critical in next year's presidential elections."

Around January 2, 2024 (article has not dated):

"The Lukeville-Sonoyta Port of Entry will be reopening Thursday, a month after U.S. Customs and Border Protection shuttered the crossing as a result of increased migrant arrivals on Dec. 4.

"Senior Biden administration officials announced Tuesday that the Lukeville border crossing and the Morley Pedestrian Port of Entry in Nogales will reopen Jan. 4. The Lukeville port will reopen at 6 a.m. Thursday while the Morley gate will reopen at 10 a.m., CBP said."
