SAN DIEGO — Migrants waiting to enter the US using former Joe Biden’s CBP One app broke down in tears after their appointments were canceled the moment President Trump took office Monday – just the first of the sweeping border actions the new administration prepared for the first day.

The Trump administration has ended use of the border app called CBP One that allowed nearly 1 million people to legally enter the United States.

Since CBP One app was fully rolled out in January 2023, more than half a million immigrants have been admitted into the United States.

The CBP One app, which allowed 1,450 people a day to enter the US on parole, had been a cornerstone of the previous administration’s efforts to manage border crossings

Long-term appointments were canceled when the CBP One scheduling app was halted after Donald Trump’s inauguration.

The Trump administration cancelled a program aimed at easing the process of applying for asylum, leaving thousands of asylum-seekers disappointed and unsure of what to do next.

The president signed a series of orders that signal a dramatic change to immigration policy and left hundreds of migrants stranded at the southern US border.

General Jose Lemus, commander of Ciudad Juarez's military garrison, said the tunnel "must have taken a long time" to build, suggesting "it could have been one or two years".
