    'Border goons detain US citizen for having an opinion

    As reported in UserMag, CBP agents detained Hasan Piker — a popular progressive streamer and a New Jersey-born US citizen — when he flew
    back from France this weekend. The authorities in Chicago questioned him
    for two hours about his political views, Twitch bans, and his interviews
    while abroad.'

    <https://boingboing.net/2025/05/12/border-goons-detain-us-citizen-for-having-an-opinion.html>

    'The agent asked about his purpose in Chicago (a speaking engagement at
    the University of Chicago journalism school) and his occupation (Twitch streamer). The questions then shifted to his streams, asking if he
    discussed current events, drama, the internet, and specifically "the
    news." The agent then inquired about "the war" and "Trump." Piker found
    these questions unusual, stating, "I literally straight up told him,
    'Why are you asking me this? What does this have to do with anything?'"'

    So apparently, "free speech" is only free if Trump's junta likes what
    you say!

    How come you libtards were silent when the DOJ was spying on the Catholic Church?

    Cite, please!

    Or school board meetings?

    Same!


    Give me a break.
    Nope.

    I really won't.

    This was a US citizen, detained for what he wrote and thought.

    No, so long as the rest of us get to know what they see too.

    Free speech??  You mean like when the Biden government told social media
    to not publish news items they did not like and said they were "Disinformation?"  Or like now, when people are coming out and
    confirming how mentally unwell Biden was during his four years as president??  They are now wanting to "Look forward" and not talk about it.

    You really should take your meds for TDS.

    More whataboutism!

    TDS is believing that a convicted felon and admitted fraudster is on
    your side.

    Whenever I hear a libtard claiming Trump is a threat to democracy, free speech, the rule of law and that he is a fascist I laugh and gently explain to the libtard
    that it's actually the democrats who fit that criteria.
    They tend to project a lot.

    And you think talking to businesses about what they're promoting is the
