What is US Border News?
US Border News follows hundreds of official sources & high-quality unofficial open-source intel sources daily on both sides of the US-Mexico border to identify news & trends before the mainstream media reports them. Accuracy is a hallmark of our reporting.
US Border News is edited by Jack Beavers, an Emmy-awarded US journalist who was raised near the Texas border with Mexico. He has lived the issues he now reports on (well before Richard Nixon declared a “War on Drugs” in 1968).
Jack has spent time in the field with Border Patrol Agents, has flown with Department of Homeland Security air crews over Texas, sailed with US Coast Guard Crews patrolling the Gulf of Mexico, spent time aboard US Customs & Border Protection watercraft on the Rio Grande, witnessed countless Drug Enforcement Administration operations, and logged many hours with Texas law enforcement officers patrolling the Borderlands.
Through it all, Jack has applied the perspective of a native South Texan to today’s Border Security issues to provide decades of perspective to the headlines that are being generated along the US Southern Border with Mexico.
In addition, he has lived through many cultural and demographic shifts that have shaped the lives of current border residents, and is a student of border history, which gives him an understanding of how we got to where we are today.
The border between the US & Mexico is a fascinating and complicated melting pot of cultures, interests, and an ever-changing political battleground.
(Editor’s note: Although the focus of US Border News was originally the Southern Border with Mexico, given the current administration’s expansion of Border Security efforts, we have recently expanded our coverage, when appropriate, to the Southern American Hemisphere).
A word about our logo:
The US Border News logo was inspired by (but is not a copy of) the logo of the US Border Patrol, about which we frequently report. However, no connection to or endorsement by the agency is claimed or implied.
For those who want to compare the two logos, see the graphics below.
We’ve purposely chosen a different color, font, font placement, border size, and map outline to differentiate our logo from the official agency logo.
