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.

    Oh please. Out of all the people the US had harmed, the current Iranian regime has caused the vast majority of its own problems. China and even Russia you can find a arguably sympathetic angle for if you’re motivated enough. The Iranian regime is simply inhuman and lost.

          Stay ignorant then. In fact, the Iranians were a democracy and very liberal, until the CIA forced the Shah of Iran onto them as political leader. They are no longer democrats because they didn’t like how the CIA arranged that, and their reaction allowed their theological leaders to gain ascendancy. It’s a direct result of US interference. You’re a good little magat, aren’t you? Learn and contribute nothing, and go through life mindlessly with your thumb up your bum.

      the iranian regime is the work of the cia. they thought they could manipulate the religious fundamentalists, so they supported a coup against a democratically elected president, with a budget of $1M in 1953
