CBS News made sure to keep filming as a Columbian migrant was reportedly moved to tears after hearing immigration rules have changed under the new president.
President Donald Trump began his second administration with a bang, signing executive orders fast and furious to get a jump start on his agenda. One of the biggest issues he ran on was stymying the relentless flow of humanity over America’s southern border, something that even sanctuary cities have recognized as a problem.
Now, those who were attempting to enter the United States by taking advantage of the CBP One app used under former President Joe Biden are dealing with the fallout. CBS News shoved a camera in the face of one woman having an emotional reaction to the news.

“A Colombian migrant waiting to enter the U.S. using former President Joe Biden’s CBP One app broke down in tears after her 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,” they wrote in the caption of their X post. “CBP One has allowed nearly 1 million people to legally enter the United States with eligibility to work and it was abruptly shut down shortly after Trump took office. Now, migrants who have been waiting for their appointments for months in order to cross into the U.S., are left stranded.”
X users had little sympathy to share with the woman, and with CBS:
Can you stop being the propaganda wing of the Democratic Party for five minutes? What is wrong with them staying in Mexico? Are you saying that there is something wrong with Mexico? pic.twitter.com/QI0Ed07UMn

Somewhere, a veteran just killed himself because he was failed by the system that gives illegals debit cards and room service so excuse me if I feel zero for some third-worlder who is now unable to skate into America.
Come in legally

Nice acting job… she had no appointments yesterday as it was a national holiday.

Wild how illegals can get appointments on national holidays but Americans can’t

This is CBS’ attempt to guilt the public into believing a secure border is wrong and immoral. Don’t let them manipate you. They’re gonna try hard to do so.
