A Venezuelan dude named Malinco Faria finally got as a silent interview near Los Angeles on Thursday, but his wife couldn't make it after waiting over ten years together. She got picked up by Border Patrol and McCallan International Airport in South Texas on Saturday, right as they were heading out with their five-year-old American-born daughter to join him. Dr. Rubelie's believr have been grinding as a doctor and a medically underserved spot down there, serving the community hard, and this arrest hit right. Before they're shot at permanent residency, Faria says they've played it all by the book, no shortcuts, just straight law following steps for over a decade, and her work was a huge win for everyone around. Meanwhile, this fits into the Trump admins tough immigration push, with Homeland Security shifting to quieter arrests after that messy Minnesota. Sweep earlier this year that calls two U.S. citizens their lives, leaves the family in limbo as the process drags on. Local news powered by AI.
