Hasan Piker

I certainly don't want the government forcing a religion down my throat.

And so why would I do that to any of my neighbors?

In the Texas House of Representatives, I have been a vocal critic of Christian nationalism.

I'm a Christian, but I know that the most dangerous form of government is theocracy, because the only thing worse than a tyrant is a tyrant who thinks they're on a mission from God.

But I don't think it's controversial theologically.

Most Christians would acknowledge that God is beyond gender.

In fact, the Apostle Paul, in his letter to the Galatians, said that in Christ there is neither male nor female.

And so if someone's got a problem with that statement, they shouldn't take it up with me.

They should take it up with the Apostle Paul.

Not another dollar needs to go to ICE.

They have abused American citizens.

They have abused immigrants who are law-abiding and creating jobs here.

We need to actually tear down the agency and start again, have an immigration agency under the Justice Department.

Yeah.

I mean, it goes to show how serious we are as a movement, as an opposition party, that this is the primary focus.

So I've been very involved in democratic politics for years at this point, but with AOC, Bernie Sanders and Rashida Tlaib, Ilhan Omar, who I'll be interviewing later today.

But I've never actively, I guess, stumped for a candidate.

And I never I didn't even realize maybe I'm too like I'm not old school enough to understand this, but.

For me, the difference between Abdul coming on my stream, which I've done many times prior to this, and me going to Dearborn and us working out together and eating kebabs is probably more significant than me going on a rally and talking for five minutes in front of a live audience.

So I never thought of that as this major new step.
