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.
Wut. If you are being questioned by any form of law enforcement it is because they want you to tell them something that will put you or someone else in prison. They are trained to get you to say incriminating things. It is your constitutional right to not talk to them. Do not fucking talk to cops. Shut the fuck up.
