Summary
Jasmine Mooney, a 35-year-old Canadian woman, has been detained in U.S. immigration facilities since March 3 after attempting to enter with an incomplete Trade NAFTA work visa application.
She was initially held at San Ysidro border crossing before being transferred in chains to detention centers in San Diego and Arizona.
Her mother, Alexis Eagles, reports inhumane conditions including overcrowded concrete cells with constant lighting and inadequate facilities.
Business partner BJ McCaslin called the situation a “nightmare” while Global Affairs Canada confirmed they’re aware but unable to intervene in U.S. immigration matters.
no amount of conformity will ever make you safe under fascism. the noose will always tighten to meet the fascists’ needs for torture. once the old enemy is eliminated a new hegemony will be homogenized and the torture will continue either at the same pace or accelerated.
it’s not really about skin tone, accent, visa access, sexual identity, gender identity, or even political stance. it’s about that the fascists must other, and they will other you any way that thy can.
