Thousands of illegal immigrants facing potential involuntary removal from the U.S. have instead opted to self-deport through an app provided by the U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP).
The number of immigrants who have opted to self-deport over the last month using the CBP Home app is over 5,000, according to Department of Homeland Security (DHS) data shared with Fox News Digital.
The self-deportations come as the Trump administration has ramped up a messaging campaign aimed at encouraging illegal immigrants to leave the country voluntarily, most recently releasing a flyer addressed to “illegal aliens” that threatens new fines for those who choose to remain in the U.S. despite a deportation order. […]
The flyer warns that the administration plans to start fining illegal migrants who have received a final order of removal $998 per day if they continue to stay in the country, while fines of $1,000-$5,000 could be given to those who failed to self-deport after claiming they would. …

GTFO
Thousands may be leaving, but the estimates are that there are 35-40 MILLION here; the pace of deportations is not even close to what’s needed
Come back when you can say MILLIONS of illegal aliens are going back home
Sweet!
The app. Do they have to leave immediately or just register to leave?
Good they can GO..too bad the killer of Omar Hernandez did not leave he would be alive today
I hope there’s enough remanufactured motor oil and jumper cables for them to make it home safely.
The fine. They’re not gonna pay it and they’re not gonna leave. Then what?
Wait...democrats and the media claimed we needed comprehensive immigration reform to accomplish these things. Could they have been lying?
Agree.
And one FReeper said the recent long awaited SCOTUS 5-4 decision still leaves in place that 9-0 the justices ruled there have to be proper warnings and notice, full legal representation and separate charges filed for each and every alien, not a mass bus and plane exit.
If that is true and upheld, then we cannot cope with all the delays, “change of attorney postponement” “defendant will be allowed to represent himself-—then ruled ineffective and incompetent legal representation for himself”, “appeal is granted. Docket full for 90 days but will be on waiting list for judge to hear the case.” “Judge rules jurors were tainted and new jurors will be interviewed and seated.” Millions of cases heard one at a time?
Alabama is hardly a mecca for illegal aliens, so I’m guessing that you don’t travel much to states and cities that ARE illegal alien magnets.
35-40 MILLION???
_____________
I heard 2500 people crossed per day. That is 75,000 per month
900,000 per year.
If 5000 people crossed per day that is 150,000 per day or 1.8 million per year. Rouding up, 10 million over 4 years.
My math proved me wrong.
Yes that!
My personal estimate has long been 20-25 million.
Come to the Home Depot in Texas.
The government figure 40 years ago was 11 million. They have been pouring over the border ever since with upwards of 10,000 a day during the Biden Administration
