WASHINGTON – The White House is now promoting a new Customs and Border Patrol app called Home, with an "intent to depart" feature.

It offers undocumented immigrants an "orderly and defined process" for letting the government know they intend to leave before any enforcement action is taken.

"The CPB Home app strengthens our mission to secure the border and provides illegal aliens with a straightforward way to leave now before facing much harsher consequences," White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt elaborated during her press briefing on Tuesday.

This new feature comes as illegal border crossings from Central America dropped 99% in February. Unlawful entries are down 94% overall since President Trump took office.

Also on the subject of immigration, Leavitt was asked about the removal process for Mahmoud Khalil, a green card holder accused of disseminating pro-Hamas materials on his college campus.

The arrest of the Columbia University graduate comes after Trump issued an executive order commanding ICE to detain those who engaged in "anti-Semetic harassment and violence" during Pro-Palestine campus demonstrations last spring.

Asked if a green-card holder needs to be charged with a crime to be deported, Leavitt said, "Under the Immigration and Nationality Act, the secretary of state has the right to revoke a green card or a visa for individuals who are adversarial to the national security interests of America."

She went on to say Khalil was a student who "took advantage" of the "privilege" of coming to America.

"This is an individual who organized group protests that not only disrupted college campus classes. [Those protestors] harassed Jewish-American students and made them feel unsafe on their own college campus, but also distributed pro-Hamas propaganda. Fliers with the Hamas logo on them."

Leavitt said Khalil's fliers were on her desk, but she chose not to bring them to the podium, saying it would be disrespectful to the room.
