It was also reported that existing appointments have been canceled. Users saw that when they opened the application, it was no longer in use and their existing appointments had been canceled.
After taking the oath, Trump, in his speech, drew attention to the issue of irregular immigration in the country, stating that he would declare a National Emergency regarding the U.S.-Mexico border like in 2019, to prevent illegal immigration and deport these individuals. Trump mentioned that he would issue an executive order to end the practice described by Republicans as "catch and release," which allows immigrants to be released into the country while waiting for their court cases. In his speech, Trump referred to irregular immigrants as "criminals" and also announced that he would send troops to the southern border of the U.S.
