@OccupyDemocrats This is why Democrats are pushing back with a partial shutdown because of ICE not following law enforcement policies. @GOP are funding ICE.

BREAKING: IT'S MURDER! Death of a 31-year-old woman dropped by ICE at a Pittsburgh bus stop in freezing weather with no coat ruled a homicide!
The Allegheny County Medical Examiner’s office has ruled the death by hypothermia of Haitian immigrant Daphy Michel, who spent more than 30 hours shivering at a Pittsburgh bus stop after being dumped by ICE, a homicide.
Three days earlier, Michel had been in Washington County Jail on misdemeanor charges that a judge dismissed. Her family was waiting to pick her up in Charleroi – just a 40-minute drive away.
But because ICE had placed a detainer on her, instead of releasing her to loved ones, authorities handed her over to immigration enforcement.
ICE fitted her with an ankle monitor, put her in their “Alternatives to Detention” program, and then dropped her off on the South Side of Pittsburgh, far from home, in February cold, wearing only light clothing. She never made it back.
“When you release someone like that that far from home, it’s a recipe for disaster,” Her attorney Joseph Murphy said. “She would have been in her own environment. She wouldn’t have been sitting around a bus stop [with no coat] in February, and she’d be alive now.”
The death at the hands of ICE was no accident. It was the direct result of cold, bureaucratic cruelty, with immigration officials choosing enforcement theater over basic human decency.
County Executive Sara Innamorato said the death was “a tragedy that appears that with a little humanity, it could have been completely avoidable.”
After the death, friends and family gathered at the bus stop where she died and held a vigil for her (photo, right).
This horror is part of a pattern under Trump’s ICE that hasn’t dissipated since the agency has fallen from the headlines: they still treat people as disposable, and appear to get perverse satisfaction making life as difficult as possible for the people they harass, like dropping vulnerable individuals in unfamiliar places with no support.
Michel didn’t deserve to die alone in the cold on a bench because the system cared more about optics than people. Her death should haunt every official who signed off on this cruel process. Each one should be worried about the pendulum of justice swinging in their direction now that the ruling is official.
If this preventable, heartbreaking tragedy makes you furious, like and share this post.
No one should die abandoned in brutal winter's cold because ICE decided their life didn’t matter.
@DavidShoebridge How appalling for our police to treat us this way
Giving precedence to the production of war materials in our name.
The level of violence in these public sevants is unacceptable. That woman could have been severely injured when thrown to the ground that wsy
@DarcyAmaroo We are a colony of USA. In other words, we are USA's bitch. We do as we are told. The sooner we understand that, the better. Or we grow some balls, kick USA and Israel out of Australia and take our country back b
@DarcyAmaroo@AlboMP is a moron. Period. A weak, USRAELI lap dog selling out our sovereignty, democracy & intefrity to 2 foreign regimes & turning Aus into an apatheid Zeo-owned colony subserviant to US military control. Labor better replace him B4 elec'n or we'll end up with eff'n PM Hanson!
The Albanese Govt fell over themselves rushing to implement an Inquiry into Anti-Semitism at the request of the Israel Lobby but has ignored any inquiry into the $400 BILLION AUKUS and Nuclear Submarine Deal despite its importance and all the criticism.
People who say "Zionism is just the belief that Jews should have a homeland" are hilarious. Zionism isn't some abstraction; we can all see its material manifestations with our own eyes. We can all see that Zionism means genocide, apartheid, and nonstop wars and abuse.
This isn't some kind of theoretical debate where we all get to have our own opinions about what Zionism is and what it entails. It's 2026, not 1890. The facts are in and the case is closed, kids. This is what Zionism is. This is the only Zionism in existence. What you see is what you get. And what you see is quantifiably one of the most evil things happening on our planet.
@GregLBean@supressedvoic Yes the border control staff could easily ask the question do you have other passports and it may be that they have computer systems that they can check ? Im sure theres a way to keep track of travellers
APSC’s Melanie McIntyre refuses to advise if Robodebt orchestrators who NACC did find corrupt - Mark Withnell & Serena Wilson - are still employed, says needs to check.
