A California man is refusing to take down his pro-Trump flag after ICE detained his wife, an Iranian immigrant, from their Diamond Bar home.
Arpineh Masihi, who fled Iran as a toddler and has lived in the U.S. for decades, was taken into custody on June 30 during a wave of detentions targeting Iranian nationals. Despite being a longtime Trump supporter, she was detained days after the U.S. bombed Iranian nuclear sites.
Masihi lost her green card 15 years ago due to a theft conviction and has been trying to regain legal status while regularly checking in with immigration officials.
Her husband, Arthu Sahakyan, says ICE showed up at their home—where a large “Keep America Great” flag still flies—and took Masihi away. She hasn’t seen their kids since.
Still, Sahakyan supports the crackdown. “I’m for vetting Iranian nationals,” he said, though he misses his wife. “Trump’s not doing anything bad—he wants what’s best for the country.”
Masihi, now in her 40s, is being transferred to another detention center and fears for her future. Despite pleas from friends, Sahakyan refuses to take down the Trump flag.
