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.

Oh no please don’t embarrass me more, I can’t stand to be called a decent human being. 😭

Maybe you can help me cope, how do you do with so many downvotes? Maybe you are right, if I ignore kids being lured outside and sniped by idf i will feel better 😇
