Full Report:

On a recent appearance on Fox News, commentator Kaylee McGhee White commended former President Donald Trump for his swift action in addressing the southern border crisis by shutting down the controversial CBP One app immediately after his inauguration. White issued a stark reminder to viewers, emphasizing that "Joe Biden is to blame" for the dangerous journey illegal immigrants have been making to the U.S.-Mexico border, pointing to the policies enacted under the Biden administration.


The CBP One app, introduced during Biden's tenure, was designed to facilitate asylum applications and reduce border congestion. However, critics argued that the app effectively served as a "digital ticket" for illegal immigrants, streamlining their entry into the United States. White highlighted how this policy incentivized migrants to embark on perilous journeys, often falling victim to human trafficking, cartels, and dangerous conditions.


White explained that Biden’s rollback of effective Trump-era border policies, such as Remain in Mexico and Title 42, directly created an environment that encouraged illegal immigration.


"Joe Biden is to blame for convincing these people to abandon their livelihood, to make that very long trek, to spend all these resources to come to our southern border, illegally ," White said, pointing to the surge in encounters at the border during his presidency, which broke records month after month.


With Trump now back in office, the decision to eliminate the CBP One app underscores his commitment to restoring border security. White praised the move as a critical step in combating the humanitarian and security crisis at the border, stating, "Donald Trump is not blame to enforcing federal immigration law."


She also addressed the human cost of Biden’s lax policies, citing reports of increased fatalities among migrants attempting to cross the treacherous terrain. "The CBP One app was never a legal process. Joe Biden lied to them. He is responsible for the devastation," declared White.


McGhee White’s comments echoed a sentiment widely shared among conservatives, who have long criticized Biden for his perceived failure to secure the border. She urged Americans not to forget who created the conditions for the crisis. "Joe Biden owns this disaster, and the American people need to hold him accountable," White concluded.


The renewed focus on border security highlights Trump’s determination to reverse the damage caused by Biden-era policies and reaffirm his administration's stance on upholding law and order at the border.
