    They sure like trying to hide their racism behind “we only want legal migrants” then proceed to close all avenues to get here legally.

      Not only that…

      The app was designed to help legal immigrants make and get immigration appointments without having to illegally cross the border first.

      They killed the app, and they also cancelled all upcoming appointments made with the app.

    Here we go. They’re going to cry about illegal immigration while making legal systems inaccessible.

      No, it will be enforcement theatre, same as it’s been for decades. Just now they’ll look to end birthright citizenship, where even the children will have no choice but stay in the lowest occupations for fear of deportation. A permanent underclass that can’t even buy property legally and can be deported on a whim or just in time to make a headline before an election.

    To be clear although getting rid of this without replacing it in any way is horrible this app sucked big time was buggy, caused massive delays no where near meeting demand and so many more things. This app and the system around it was inhuman and awful both practically and humanitarianlly no reason to argue otherwise.
