'American Pie' actress Jasmine Mooney said she was detained by ICE officials while trying to cross the U.S.-Mexico border to renew her work visa.

Summary

“American Pie” actress Jasmine Mooney, a Canadian citizen, was detained by ICE while attempting to renew her work visa at the U.S.-Mexico border on March 3.

She described the experience as a “deeply disturbing psychological experiment,” including sleeping on a mat with “aluminum foil wrapped over my body like a dead body,” being transported in chains, and receiving inedible food.

Officials allegedly told her she was “unprofessional because I didn’t have a proper letterhead” on her paperwork.

After her release, Mooney credited media attention and her support network for securing her freedom.

    the terrorist kill list was a little shady, but it was effective

    This is “effective” as well. For Musk/Trump.

    Doesn’t make it okay.

        Everyone thinks they’re the good guys. The people of the US cast GW Bush, then Obama, now Trump in the good guy seat and these tools were on the table.

        The whole problem with your philosophy of “the ends justify the means” is that that way of thinking is in itself an existential threat to humanity.

            don’t be on the losing team.

            Really was not expecting to see an openly fascist US nationalist on Lemmy of all places, but I guess it was only a matter of time.

            well, you can end up in a pile with the rest of my enemies.

            If I wanted to be threatened by some bootlicker child from the other side of the world, I would be on the chans or playing Rust.

            We’re done here.
