Hasan Piker reacted to Mike Rogers bringing him up during his interview with CNN's Dana Bash. He justifiably criticized Dana Bash and liberals in the media for not pushing back on the disgusting Islamophobia being spewed by Republicans: "Democrats, liberals in the media, I know we have our disagreements. I know you hate my ass. I know you despise the things that I advocate for, my critical coverage on Israel, for example, but if you want to establish a basis for truth in your reporting, there are going to be instances where you have to push back. What does Hasan Piker have to do with anything? Am I the Muslim Brotherhood now? You have given credibility to these racist, right-wing attacks because you thought it would serve your purpose. You thought it would do away and defang an anti-Zionist platform that you disagree with, and now Republicans get to keep hitting that line over and over again. You allowed it to happen. This is what I meant."

Jake Romm from the Hind Rajab Foundation when asked by Hasan Piker why he thinks that IDF soldiers film their war crimes and atrocities: "As to why they do it, it's the decades and decades of impunity that the Israelis have enjoyed for their crimes against the Palestinians. When I say decades of impunity, I mean going back to 1947. I mean dating back all the way to the Nakba. They have been committing crimes without basically any pushback whatsoever, certainly no international legal pushback. When you live in a regime that is premised upon the violent racial domination of someone else and you are allowed to just continue not just without any pushback, but actually with a ton of support from the majority of the world and certainly the most powerful countries in the world, you feel invincible."

Hasan Piker on Amy Klobuchar and Angie Craig condemning and trying to cancel his planned event with Ilhan Omar and Omar Fateh: "I have a lot of fans in Minneapolis. Minneapolis is one of the more radical, Democratic base of supports in the country. I'm willing that there are more people deeply invested in the party in Minneapolis that are fans of mine than fucking Amy Klobuchar, you know what I mean? I'm so tired, man. I'm tired. What you do not realize is this: When you make a big deal about a narrative that is entirely reactionary, designed to cause an outrage cycle in Minnesota, as a Democrat, even if you like your big donors, you should privately assure that we are different than one another; we're not fans of each other, but it's a big tent and we gotta defeat Donald Trump. These guys [centrist Democrats] think there is this broad, anti-Hasan sentiment bubbling up. They do not see that these attacks only make them look like they're deeply out of touch and deeply out of step. Klobuchar, you're going to win. It's going to be a blowout victory. What are you doing? This is your time to actually lean in to your base. I'm just so tired. The Somali community is constantly under attack by the exact same forces that are trying to present me as this big danger and you have prominent Democrats in this state leaning into it. Disgusting."
