The Biden administration has decided to roll out a new app for illegal migrants, allowing them to bypass the tedious process of in-person check-ins with ICE while they wait for their court dates—some of which may be set a few calendar years down the line. Apparently, the White House thinks that the best way to manage immigration is through a mobile app, which really begs the question: what’s next? A dating app for finding sympathetic judges?
This new development is yet another example of how the current administration seems to prioritize non-citizens over American citizens. With all the focus on ensuring that illegal migrants can interact with the system from the comfort of their phones, one has to wonder if the administration has ever considered the implications for law-abiding Americans who are forced to follow the rules. Perhaps they’ll soon unveil a phone app for taxpayers to keep track of how many rights they’ve surrendered while cozying up to individuals who bypassed the legal entry process.
😠😡You know the radicals at DHS under Mayorkas, himself a lifetime open borders, radical Marxist type, are just scheming and conniving every little game the can play during the transition.
Be clear, both parties used to respect this 'interregnum' period by not pursuing any… pic.twitter.com/ZT1i6kqaWM

The decision to implement this app raises eyebrows on several fronts. First off, it normalizes the idea that skipping in-person check-ins—something the rest of the population would never be allowed to do—should be an option just because you’ve chosen to ignore the immigration laws of the country. It sends a strong signal that the rules are far more flexible if you happen to be on the wrong side of the law. Who knew that all one needed to do to game the system was to download a handy app?
Additionally, the government continues to pour money into tech solutions which, rather than ensure safety and compliance, appear to just make it easier for people to flout the law. This app is yet another example of how bureaucracy seems to relent when faced with vague feelings of empathy, yet remains rigid for the average citizen who is dealing with endless paperwork and requirements just to get a simple permit or service.
In an age where everyone carries around a supercomputer in their pocket, it’s ironic that while American citizens are hampered by red tape, illegal migrants are given a tech-savvy lifeline. Instead of relying on an app that seems crafted to facilitate lawbreaking, perhaps the White House should consider a little less reliance on tech and a little more on restoring order to a system that has seen the rule of law turn into a mere suggestion.
