Latest fact check

The Department of Homeland Security’s Feb. 5, 2026 statement explicitly says: “Bekzhan Beishekeev ... illegally came to the United States using the Biden administration’s disastrous CBP One app and was released into the United States.” Multiple independent news outlets (e.g., Fox News, JustTheNews) report the same DHS claim and the Web Archive capture of the DHS release preserves identical wording. Verdict: True — the DHS release does state that Beishekeev entered via the CBP One app and was released into the United States, as shown by the DHS statement and corroborated by independent reporting and an archived copy of the release.
