Karen Bass Whines That L.A. Illegals Aren't Showing Up at the Hospital for Taxpayer Funded Healthcare

Karen Bass has been waging a one-woman war on ICE in L.A., because she's done a fantastic job of rebuilding the city post-wildfires (hahahahaha -- just kidding!).

Now she's playing the 'lifesaving care' card:

Patients are skipping life-saving care out of fear of ICE, with no-shows doubling in some L.A. hospitals.

I worked in the Emergency Room — I know firsthand how dangerous this is.

This assault on our city must end. https://t.co/7suDQGVPos

They are free to self-deport to their home country, which probably has that awesome socialized medicine the Left loves, anyway.

Here's more from LAist:

No-shows at some local hospitals and clinics have increased since immigration agents descended on Los Angeles last month, according to the L.A. County Board of Supervisors.
St. John's clinics in Los Angeles and the Inland Empire have seen cancellations and appointment absences increase to 30% since June 6, when the federal government began enhanced enforcement. Los Angeles General Medical Center's no-show and cancellation rates have doubled to around 20%.
Those figures are cited in a motion unanimously approved by the Board of Supervisors Tuesday directing county agencies to assess how the increased immigration actions are affecting patient access to needed medical appointments and other social services.
'We must do what we can to safeguard access to essential health and social services for all of our immigrant communities,' said Supervisor Hilda Solis, who introduced the motion with Supervisor Lindsey Horvath.
They are not entitled to healthcare paid for by the taxpayers -- taxpayers who voted for President Trump to deport illegal immigrants.

Practically this is irrelevant nonsense.

Someone illegally in the country 5 minutes has no legal right to physically be here. There is nothing cruel about legally returning them to their home country.

All of these hysteria stories just highlight the need for faster removal. https://t.co/neus0bUO4u

Faster removal of all illegals.

I am sick of activists fomenting fear and then citing the fear they fomented as proof their position is correct. https://t.co/1wuRsGoe3L

It's tiresome.

"No shows"... at the Emergency Room.

Somebody ate their box of Crayons too many times. https://t.co/EDeBcXSQRS

Or she admitted that illegals are using ERs as primary care facilities, which makes things messier for those who really need the ER.

"Illegals are skipping medical care on the taxpayer dime cause they are being held accountable for their actions" -not Mayor Karen Bass https://t.co/9jNa0Vujd6

That's another way of putting it.

"I worked in the Emergency Room"

A shiver just ran down my spine.

Say "Cleaning the bed pans." https://t.co/8DoQfSsYWi

We hope so, because imagine Karen Bass as your nurse.
