I usually appreciate the AP, but Jesus fucking Christ what a pussy headline. “Triggers tension at a Minnesota hospital” is the best they could muster up the nerve to run with? They literally quote a source saying:
“It was laughable, if there was something to laugh about,” said one of the nurses, who spoke to The Associated Press on the condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to discuss patient care. “There was no way this person ran headfirst into a wall.”
How about a headline of “ICE assaults a person and lies about it so badly that medical staff would laugh if it wasn’t so tragic”.
As if we needed any more confirmation that these people are actual Nazis… Walking in and claiming this is what nurses need to write down on official documents is normal for them.
A medical record is a legal document. Health care workers may not be allowed to speak to the press per both hospital policy and HIPAA, but they can document behaviors in the chart.
Unable to walk patient per post op progression orders due to ICE refusal to uncuff patient’s ankles from bed. Everything.
The patient can then access, if they’re still alive on the outside, if we ever get our collective shit together and buck off the regime.
This reminds of an old joke from the Soviet Union days.
The good doctor Ivanovich is conducting an autopsy of a recent guest of the KGB with his assistant, Pyotr. “See Pyotr? Cause of death, brain hemmorage,” the doctor declares. Pyotr responds incredulously, “But comrade Doctor, this man was obviously shot in the head with a Makarov! How can that be a brain hemmorage?” Doctor Ivanovich nods sagely. “It is a 9mm brain hemmorage.”
The Doctors there should hold the ICE agent on an involuntary psych hold.
Waiting for an ICE victim to have officially “fallen backwards onto six bullets”
