With Immigration and Customs Enforcement continuing nationwide arrests and deportations, the liberal media have hysterically cranked up the hysteria. On Tuesdays, CBS Morning Plus, for example, they claimed some illegal immigrants are “avoiding health care” in fear of being arrested by ICE...as if that will suddenly stop ICE from upholding the law.
The left-wing media want people to put illegal immigrants first by being empathic to their struggles. Co-host Tony Dokoupil began, “Now hospitals are preparing employees on what to do if ICE agents show up in the middle of care.” Does CBS think that ICE agents will show up in the middle of a heart surgery, and take the illegal immigrant being operated away?
Dokoupil asked CBS News medical contributor Dr. Celine Gounder if the raids in hospitals have started yet or if it is fear circulating rumors, to which she claimed:
As for official raids by ICE, that is still something we are waiting to see if we're going to have that happen. But we are seeing ICE agents in health care facilities. They are often bringing in people that they've detained for medical clearance. We see this often with law enforcement, but it is creating an atmosphere of fear. And my colleagues and I have had numerous patients tell us that they hesitated or waited too long to come in for health care. So, if you're talking about a heart attack, you're talking about heart muscle when you're delaying care. When you're talking about a stroke, you're talking about brain cells, when you're delaying care. So those delays really matter.
