CNN’s Dana Bash Sounds the Alarm On Marxist Streamer Hasan Piker

Even CNN is raising alarms about radical Marxist streamer Hasan Piker, after several Democratic candidates declined to condemn his abhorrent remarks, which include defending the mass rape of civilians on October 7, 2023, and calling the terrorist organization Hezbollah a "resistance group."

CNN's @DanaBashCNN: "Hasan Piker is excusing sexual violence by Hamas terrorists. He also claims Hamas is, quote, 'a thousand times better than Israel.' Hamas is a designated terror organization, not just by the U.S., but by the EU, Canada, Australia, New Zealand." pic.twitter.com/Z0QKorD8Uz

"Here's some of what he actually has said about the depravity of the October 7th terror attack, the deadliest day for the Jewish people since the Holocaust. Quote, it doesn't matter if effing rapes happened on October 7th. Like that doesn't change the dynamic for me. The Palestinian resistance is not perfect. Now let that sink in. Hassan Piker is excusing sexual violence by Hamas terrorists," CNN's Dana Bash said. "He also claims Hamas is quote a thousand times better than Israel. Hamas is a designated terror organization, not just by the U.S., but by the E.U., Canada, Australia, New Zealand, just to name a few."

Here are just a few of his controversial political takes, inflammatory comments, and even an instance where he shocked his dog on stream for standing up, giving a glimpse of who he really is.

This comes as a candidate for U.S. Senate in Michigan, along with other progressive Democrats, have appeared at events with Piker and, in some cases, declined to publicly condemn him. Some candidates have also received endorsements from Piker, which should serve as a warning to voters of who not to vote for.

Michigan Democrat Abdul El-Sayed says there is NOTHING that Hasan Piker has said that he disagrees with.

JOURNALIST: “Are there any views that Hasan holds that you disavow?”

EL-SAYED: “I’m not here to disavow people’s views…”

Radical spokesman for Democrats Hasan Piker offers his full endorsement for Janet Mills:

"I'm a part of the Janet Mills militia."

"I'm Mills mafia."

"I am riding with Janet Mills."

Hasan Piker — who said "America deserved 9/11" — backs Georgia Democrat Senator Jon Ossoff.

Why is it so hard for you to condemn an endorsement from someone who said Americans deserved to die by terrorists, @SenOssoff? https://t.co/L0d8dxy6s3
