Rep Shri Thanedar was viciously trolled and made responsible for his first wife's suicide after he expressed his interest in the Supreme Court hearing on birthright citizenship. Thanedar said the hearing was deeply personal to him as he came to the US as an immigrant. But he was attacked based on unfounded claims and one social media user held him responsible for his first wife's suicide.
"As an immigrant myself, today's arguments on birthright citizenship are deeply personal to me. The 14th Amendment is clear: the children of immigrants are guaranteed US citizenship. Despite President Trump's wishes, he cannot rewrite the Constitution," Thanedar wrote.
