White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt promoted the CBP Home app as a means for migrants to self-deport rather than face mass deportation videos. The White House shared an upbeat deportation video featuring alleged Venezuelan gang members being sent to detention in El Salvador, accompanied by a nostalgic song. This approach signals a shift in immigration policy techniques and messaging on social media, contrasting with the previous administration's practices, which Leavitt criticized as facilitating illegal entry into the U.S. Through the app, migrants can notify authorities of their departure intentions, actively encouraged by the administration.
Migrants are being encouraged to self-deport using the CBP Home app to avoid being included in deportation videos posted by the White House.
Leavitt highlighted the app's functionality, likening the previous administration's approach to a 'fast pass at Disneyland', emphasizing changes under the Trump administration.
