“Do it the right way,” MAGA said. Oswaldo Pirela did.
He fled political persecution in Venezuela, applied for asylum through the legal process, continually renewed his work authorization, built a career with the San Diego Padres and raised two U.S.-born daughters.
Then ICE detained him at El Paso International Airport while he was returning home from work. His family is still waiting for him. ICE has offered no public explanation.
This was never just about “criminals.” It was never about “law and order.” The process itself has become a trap: follow the rules, work, raise a family, contribute to your community—and masked agents can still take you away.
A functioning immigration system processes cases. A police state disappears fathers at airports and calls it “enforcement.”

Know your rights. Record everything. Share his story. Demand answers.

As I reported was trending that direction a few days ago, @HailStateBB has hired long-time @UVABaseball head coach Brian O'Connor. O'Connor led #UVA to seven #CWS appearances and the national championship in 2015.
What a hire by @zacselmon.
Reminder that Western NC was considered a “climate haven” in the US.
Don’t think the impacts of climate change won’t reach you. Asheville is over 250 miles inland and 2,000 feet above sea level.
This isn’t normal and we need to address this as a climate crisis.
