Donald Trump took the oath of office Monday at the Capitol Rotunda, officially becoming the 47th President of the United States. As he makes his move back to the White House, he is set to begin his immigration crackdown right away. Just minutes after he took office, the effects of his administration were already being felt for migrants across the country, as the app used by many to legally request asylum in the country, CBP One, was immediately shut down, leaving those with appointments in limbo.
"Illegal entry will immediately be halted, and we will begin the process of returning millions and millions of criminal aliens back to the places from which they came," Trump said in his inaugural address. Later in the day he signed a flurry of executive orders, including declaring a national emergency at the southern border.
