The app, set to launch in January, allows illegal immigrants to alert family members and the nearest Mexican consulate if they are about to be detained by US authorities.
Mexico is creating an app, "Alert Button," to support Mexican nationals in the US facing potential deportation, a senior Mexican official announced Friday.
The app, set to launch in January, allows illegal immigrants to alert family members and the nearest Mexican consulate if they are about to be detained by US authorities.
"In case you find yourself in a situation where detention is imminent, you push the alert button, and that sends a signal to the nearest consulate," explained Juan Ramón de la Fuente, Mexico’s secretary of foreign affairs. He noted that the app has already undergone small-scale testing and "appears to be working very well."
The move comes as Mexico prepares for mass deportations in the US under President-elect Trump’s administration, which has vowed to secure the border and execute the largest deportation program in US history. Estimates suggest there are 4.8 million Mexicans in the U.S. without legal residency or proper documentation, reports Fox News.
The Mexican official said that Mexico’s consular network, with 53 locations across the US, will advocate for the purported rights of illegal aliens in America. His office has hired 329 legal representatives to ensure due process for deportees.
The Mexican government has also launched a 24-hour call center to educate illegal immigrants on their rights and provide assistance ahead of potential arrests. "We want to tell our fellow countrymen that they are not alone and they will not be alone," De la Fuente stated.
Tensions between the US and Mexico have risen, with Trump proposing a 25 percent tariff on Mexican imports in response to illegal immigration and drug trafficking.
Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum has warned of a potential trade war, asserting that her government is already addressing the issue.
The Biden administration enabled record-high illegal crossings, with ICE reporting 271,484 deportations in fiscal year 2024, including 237 known or suspected terrorists. The number of illegal immigrants on ICE's non-detained docket surged to 7.7 million, more than doubling since Trump left office.
P
They have no legal rights in the US. What part of illegal do those retards not understand.
Invaders. Invasion.
May not be an act of war, but it is extremely discourteous.
Good. Saves us a phone call
Time to close a few of these consulates down
What does that tell us about Mexicans illegally in America?
A compass is a good start.
Good! The Illegals can use the app when the Gringos dump ‘em over the Rio Grande into Mexico.
¿Evitar que me deporten junto con mi escuadrón asesino de pandillas? Hay una aplicación para eso.📲
English:
Stop them from deporting me along with my gang kill squad? There’s an application for that.
I think America should seize a strip of Mexican territory a mile-wide sout of the border, build another fence south of that strip, and the. place a few million land mines in-between. I think that would solve 95% of the problem for Mexico.
I doubt any Mexicans are involved in the creation of this app. It’s more likely being made by American immigration lawyers.
Map....
“I demand full diplomatic immunity”
“I demand full sovereign immunity”
“I demand full sanctuary status.”
“So keep your gringo hands off me, okay, turkeys?”
Maybe Mexico should spend their money bolstering the middle class, so those peeps want to stay
Annexation of the northern most states of Mexico and Baja, California should not be out of play. We already contribute so much to Mexico. 5 to 1 the inhabitants of those states apart from the drug cartels vote to join
Are you wondering why the Mexican government would do this?
“$55.9 billion
Remittances from the U.S. to Mexico reached a record $55.9 billion in 2022, accounting for 95 percent of Mexico’s total remittances of $58.5 billion. Mexican migrants in the U.S. typically send the funds home to support their families2. In 2023, a total of $64.4 billion was sent back, with most of the money arriving from the United States34.”
Wouldn’t it be funny if the app led the US government to every one of them?
Google has to APPROVE any new app, and if they do, they may find Janet Reno resurrected and putting together a case to DISMEMBER their company.
