This is what the United States has done to refugees and asylum seekers. This was done in your name, in my name, in the name of all Americans.

Holy wow, this thread viral when I wasn't looking, so I want to say that I deserve no credit for this. I didn't break the story, just tweeted it. It was written by
@LambeJerry and the report came from@ProjectSouth. Also@GovAcctProj has taken on the whistleblower's case.Show this thread -
Although the whistleblower has been identified, I will not identify her any more than I already have for probably obvious reasons. Also,
@theintercept did an in-depth story on the same issue, leading with a different angle and painting an awful picture:https://theintercept.com/2020/09/14/ice-detention-center-nurse-whistleblower/ …Show this thread -

Seeing a lot of aspersions and doubts cast on every aspect of this story, so I highly recommend learning about the history of Irwin County Detention Center and LaSalle. This facility is well known. 2012https://www.thenation.com/article/archive/how-one-georgia-town-gambled-its-future-immigration-detention/ …

If all of this is new to you and seems too shocking to be real, then perhaps you just weren't paying attention. Actually, I know no one was. I was covering it and trying to get people to pay attention.

As far as the sterilizations go, all I can say is that I've heard stories like this for a long time -- but no one would talk on the record.

Oh and by the way, they are penning people up in there to die of COVID!! People who have to make a mighty effort to even exist in the eyes of the USA, simply for seeking a better life. It is all monstrous.

Oh, one last observation to add to this thread. These are refugees and asylum-seekers who have committed, at most, a civil offense. Not a criminal one. But don't take my word for it. https://www.oig.dhs.gov/sites/default/files/assets/2018-06/OIG-18-67-Jun18.pdf …
