ICE Scrambles for Doctors After Years of 'Critical Condition' Care
ICE is reportedly frantic to hire doctors and nurses as deaths and lawsuits mount in its detention facilities. This urgent 'scramble' conveniently ignores years of documented medical neglect and rising mortality rates under both Republican and Democratic administrations. Organizations like Human Rights Watch and the ACLU have detailed systemic failures, delayed care, and inadequate oversight for
over a decade. It's almost as if penny-pinching on human rights leads directly to multi-million dollar payouts in court. So, after years of dismissing warnings and ignoring pleas from detainees and advocates alike, ICE now finds itself in the uncomfortable position of having to address the very 'crisis' its policies created. How many preventable deaths does it take before 'scrambling' becomes
'accountability' for government agencies?
