Hasan Piker, the biggest progressive political streamer in America, was detained by Customs and Border Protection for hours of questioning upon returning to the U.S. from a trip to France this weekend. Piker posted about the incident on X and later talked about it on stream.

He was detained in Chiago and questioned for two hours about protected journalistic activities like who he’s interviewed and his political beliefs. He was asked whether or not he’d interviewed Hamas, Houthis, or Hezbollah members. He was questioned about his opinions on Trump and Israel and asked about his history of bans on Twitch. His phone and laptop were not confiscated.

Sorry to say, but you are a special kind of stupid. One day the terrorist state known as Israel will collapse and we will celebrate.

I will not excuse the abhorrent atrocities the IDF did. Not today, not ever.

Ps. From long Ethan viewer: he is an unstable person and his argument are in bad faith.
