Venezuelan Family's Asylum Hopes Dashed

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.
