SUMMARY
Minutes after President Trump’s inauguration, his administration shut down the controversial CBP One app, a key tool of the Biden administration’s border policies. The app, which allowed illegals to schedule appointments at U.S.-Mexico ports of entry, was widely criticized for encouraging illegal immigration by creating loopholes for entry without visas. By canceling all outstanding appointments, Trump officials signaled a decisive end to policies perceived as enabling unchecked migration. Critics of the CBP One app argued it undermined border security, allowing tens of thousands of aliens to bypass traditional vetting processes. The app facilitated over 48,000 entries through ports in December alone, raising concerns about its role in incentivizing migration. The Trump administration’s swift shutdown of the app and plans to reinstate strict policies, such as the "Remain in Mexico" program, underscore a renewed commitment to robust border enforcement and national sovereignty.
