Marcelo Gomes da Silva, a 19-year-old who was detained in an ICE facility for six days last year, attended Trump's State of the Union address as a guest of Democratic Congressman Seth Moulton (D-MA). But in the middle of the speech, the Department of Homeland Security posted a tweet naming him and calling him "an illegal alien who has no right to be in our nation."
