On this episode of the podcast, Peruvian-born naturalized American citizen and U.S. Army soldier Piero Maranon Velazco shares his shocking story of being branded a white supremacist and Nazi sympathizer — simply for having a photo of Donald Trump on his phone. From his turbulent reception at Fort Jackson to filing a formal EO complaint against a racist nurse and being singled out by a Hispanic drill sergeant, Piero opens up about the systemic mistreatment he endured under the Biden Administration. Upon being accused of violating DEA and EO policies, Piero’s case caught the attention of Congressman Eli Crane and Rep. Paul Gosar, who are now advocating for his right to re-enlist.
