Hasan Piker’s dangerous and hateful language targeting Jewish Americans has no place in our civic discourse. Suggesting that Jewish Americans bear responsibility for hatred or violence directed against them is wrong, dangerous, and antisemitic.

We can, and should, argue fiercely over policy. We should have meaningful dialogue and debate about the policies and actions of the Israeli government and American foreign policy. That is the lifeblood of democracy. But that’s not what this is.

No American should be told that their political beliefs make them responsible for hatred or violence directed against them. There is a bright line between vigorous debate and rhetoric that stokes hatred toward our neighbors. Mr. Piker has crossed that line, repeatedly and unmistakably.

[Neera Tanden🌻 @neeratanden]

The people obsessed with Piker are the ones who campaigned with him, pool partied with him, had him at their election night parties and GOP ad makers. AES distanced now so he can win. Question is why you care more about defending Piker than beating Rogers.

[Julie Karant @Julie32BJ]

@Metrorailinfo Has this been resolved?

[Neera Tanden🌻 @neeratanden]

Literally last spring a number of us warned you all Piker’s statements would be fodder for the right. On cue, Piker says Jews here are responsible for attacks on them - asking for it, Rogers attacks El-Sayed and El-Sayed has to distance. And instead of saying, hey we were wrong, maybe we shouldn’t prop up or excuse antisemitism, accounts on here double down. That’s not progressive, that’s factionalism above all else.

[Senator Jacky Rosen @SenJackyRosen]

Hasan Piker has been trafficking in antisemitic tropes for a while but even this is a new low. Blaming Jewish Americans for the violence and hate they’re facing is not just wrong, it provides an excuse to those perpetuating these anti-Jewish hate crimes. 

Let me be absolutely clear: crimes against Jews for being Jews is antisemitism plain and simple. There’s no excuse for it.

[Neera Tanden🌻 @neeratanden]

Republicans are attacking Hasan Piker and candidates that campaign with him because he alienates swing voters. Don't blame the people who warned you.
Blame yourselves for not listening to the warnings.
You can fight Trump's hatemongering without supporting hatemongers on the left. It's actually consistent to oppose both.

[Hakeem Jeffries @RepJeffries]

The malicious claim that American Jews are inviting violence against themselves is dangerous and antisemitic.

There is zero justification for threats against the safety of our Jewish brothers and sisters at a moment of rising hate.

We will fight the cancer of antisemitism with the fierce urgency of now.

Harbor East office workers get a good view of striking security officers rally, rat.

[Rep. Yvette D. Clarke @RepYvetteClarke]

The rise in antisemitic hate crimes targeting Jewish New Yorkers is deeply troubling and completely unacceptable. New York’s Ninth Congressional District is home to a vibrant Jewish community, and we must ensure that every resident can worship, live, and participate in all our city has to offer without fear of targeted acts of violence.

I stand firmly against antisemitism in all forms and remain committed to protecting the safety, dignity, and security of Jewish New Yorkers. I will continue to work with local elected officials and the New York congressional delegation to assist in preventing and combating hate crimes in my district and across all five boroughs.

Paul Begala to Jessica Tarlov: "The DSA has their own party, and here's what they've done for America: They elected George Bush by supporting Ralph Nader in 2000. They elected Donald Trump by supporting Jill Stein in 2016. They helped elect Donald Trump in 2024 by doing this 'uncommitted nonsense.' So their contribution to America has been the Iraq war, the Afghanistan war, the financial crisis, and the Trump presidency. I've had just about enough help from the kook left. Not only do they siphon off votes, but they taint and poison the brand." https://t.co/wPeku8eH3L

@LeighGiangreco It’s part of the reason why more people I graduated with are West than are left in Chicago - Boulder and Denver are satellite cites!

Amidst an increase in teen takeovers, altercations & disorderly conduct, Abacus officer Justin believes he didn’t receive the support he needed after a violent confrontation at 901 S. Bond Street on June 8, 2026. Before calling the police, perpetrators were banging on the windows, threw water bottles at him & pushed their way into the building. “We just want to feel safe & do our job.”

What happened to the argument of going everywhere and talking to everyone?

[SEIU @SEIU]

Our union has become the latest target of this corrupt Trump admin that weaponizes the legal process against working people on the job, at the ballot box, and in our communities. As we continue to show solidarity in our union and with our allies in Minnesota and across America, we’ve been surveilled. But just like we’ve stood up to bullies and #GreedyCEOs, our union is ready to do the same against self-interested politicians.

Working people will not be intimidated or silenced! More than ever, our solidarity with our members, our communities, and our neighbors is crucial ✊🏻✊🏼✊🏽✊🏾✊🏿 https://t.co/0XQtYWrUED

When Jewish students at an Arlington, Virginia, high school were mocked, threatened, and chased, their desperate requests for help were met with indifference by school officials.
