Hasan Piker Subpoena + Iran Peace Deal? | PBD #805
"Free me. We will free you, brother. Yeah, free me, free me."
Political streamer Hassan Piker and Code Pink co-founder Medea Benjamin were subpoenaed by the Treasury Department's Office of Foreign Assets Control investigating potential violations of U.S. sanctions laws during March trips to Cuba. The probe involves up to 40 Americans and explores foreign influence operations tied to extremist movements. Businessman Roy Singham allegedly funneled hundreds of millions into pro-China, pro-Cuba nonprofits, with Code Pink receiving over $1 million. Piker's nervous on-stream reaction contrasted sharply with his previous revolutionary rhetoric.
