Hasan Piker says he just wants healthcare and to end American militarism. A compilation of his archived statements tells a different story: advocating killing capitalists, saying he'd vote for Hamas over Israel every time, and stating America deserved 9/11. This is the media face of the movement that just won multiple elections.

After warning listeners that the DSA's media allies are trying to soften their image now that they've won elections, Bongino plays a recent clip of Hasan Piker — the progressive streamer with millions of followers — claiming that DSA candidates just want healthcare and roads, and that calling them radicals or terrorists is unfair. Producer Justin then assembles a counter-clip package of Piker's archived statements, which Bongino watches for the first time on air. The reel includes Piker calling for landlords to be killed in the street, saying he would vote for Hamas over Israel 'every single time,' arguing the premise of October 7th as an intentional antisemitic massacre is 'incorrect,' and stating 'America deserved 9/11.' Bongino's reaction is raw and genuine — he had not seen the compilation before air. He frames it as definitive proof that the 'healing' narrative is an intentional rebranding effort.
A Wall Street Journal counterfactual shows that a 22-year-old in 2011 who could have invested just $83 per month under Bush's partial Social Security privatization plan would have accumulated over $800,000 by retirement, using actual S&P 500 returns. Instead, the government spent that money and replaced it with IOUs it can't redeem by 2034.
Bongino states that Social Security's own actuaries have projected the program will exhaust its trust fund IOUs by 2034, calling it effectively bankrupt now.
A Wall Street Journal analysis found that a 22-year-old in 2011 would have accumulated over $800,000 by retirement if the Bush 2005 Social Security partial privatization plan had passed, using actual S&P market returns.
The Wall Street Journal Social Security counterfactual used the S&P 500's historical 10% average annual return as the baseline for calculating what workers could have accumulated under Bush's partial privatization plan.
Ten years ago, 90% of tech media coverage was relentlessly negative and Kalanick felt he couldn't speak freely. Today, the rise of independent podcasters and Elon Musk buying Twitter has fundamentally changed the game — and it's why he's finally willing to talk.
Kay Classman, 28, was arrested for repeatedly posing as a 16-year-old and enrolling in Bronx high schools across multiple districts. She wasn't a predator — just someone so sad and lonely she wanted her lost childhood back. That's somehow sadder.
Disney, Meta, and Paramount have collectively paid Trump roughly $60 million to settle what Galloway calls nuisance lawsuits — all routed to his presidential library. Newsrooms are folding. The White House is handpicking press pool participants. This is what the end of a free press looks like.
One cheap fake documentary made by a teenager in his mother's basement convinced 16% of Americans that 9/11 was an inside job. Social media didn't invent conspiracy — it just gave it a rocket engine.
A progressive organization with a stated mission to destroy Turning Point USA received millions from ActBlue and is now publicly pushing the narrative that TPUSA insiders and Israel murdered Charlie Kirk. Andrew Wilson traced the network of accounts all amplifying the same conspiracy in perfect unison.
The microphone-bomb theory fails on every physical front: no smoke, no ignition, mic on the wrong side of the wound. And the .30-06 rifle round used is extensively documented by the US Army — it does not always produce a through-and-through wound. Wilson argues this is a well-studied projectile with well-understood behavior.
Andrew Wilson publicly offered Candace Owens $300,000 to debate her theory that Israel and TPUSA murdered Charlie Kirk. She refused. He argues that flat-earthers will debate anyone, but Kirk conspiracy theorists won't defend their claims under scrutiny.
Erika Kirk became the CEO of TPUSA while grieving her husband's murder in public, and now faces tens of thousands accusing her of conspiring to kill him. Andrew Wilson calls it mind-boggling psychological torture. The sparklers at the memorial weren't suspicious — they were a grieving widow doing her best in an impossible situation.
Joe Rogan and Andrew Wilson watch a bystander video of the Corey Ruiz police shooting in Madison, Wisconsin live on air. The video is so blurry they initially think a female officer fired the fatal shots. They later learn a male officer did, after Ruiz allegedly pulled a knife and stabbed officers. Their conclusion: you cannot have a hot take on a story you don't understand yet.
