Democratic Sens. Elissa Slotkin, D-Mich., and Jacky Rosen, D-Nev., condemned livestreamer Hasan Piker after he said that Jewish Americans will face inevitable consequences for supporting Israel.<\/p>\n

Last week, Piker told his viewers, “If Jews in America keep putting this idea out there that they are singularly invested in Israel, eventually someone is going to come around and take action, not against the state of Israel, mind you, but against American Jews.”<\/p>\n

Slotkin, who is widely believed to be a potential contender<\/a> for the 2028 presidential election, shared what she called a “response to Hasan Piker’s recent comments on Jews in America being targeted because of their views on Israel.”<\/p>\n

“This shouldn\u2019t be hard: no community should face the threat [of] violence for their political views. Period,” Slotkin shared in a statement posted to social media<\/a>. “That goes if you\u2019re pro-Israel, pro-Palestine, pro-choice, pro-life or any other cause you care about. And blaming the victims of violence for bringing it on themselves only further endangers people.”<\/p>\n

ANTISEMITIC STREAMER FINALLY MAKES DEM LEADER SNAP WITH RARE REBUKE: \u2018MALICIOUS\u2019<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

She suggested that this is part of a much larger phenomenon of the normalization of political violence.<\/p>\n

“In a time where political violence and anti-semitism has been spiking \u2014 and where just 6 months ago Michigan had a nearly deadly event of anti-semitic mass violence at Temple Israel<\/a> \u2014 no one should causally be suggesting that anyone, Jews or otherwise, are to blame for being targeted,” Slotkin concluded.<\/p>\n

Rosen offered a similar statement<\/a>, blasting Piker\u2019s remarks as “a new low.”<\/p>\n

“Hasan Piker has been trafficking in antisemitic tropes for a while but even this is a new low,” she posted to X. “Blaming Jewish Americans for the violence and hate they\u2019re 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\u2019s no excuse for it.”<\/p>\n

ANTISEMITIC VIOLENCE REACHES DEADLIEST LEVEL SINCE 1994, NEW GLOBAL REPORT FINDS<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

Many prominent politicians across the aisle, including fellow Democrats, have spoken out directly against Piker, arguing that he appears to be victim-blaming the Jewish community for attacks they endure.<\/p>\n

While Michigan Democratic Senate nominee Abdul El-Sayed has previously shrugged off Piker\u2019s controversial remarks, he appeared to distance himself<\/a> from the left-wing streamer after the latest controversy.<\/p>\n

Piker has a long history of controversial comments, ranging from saying “America deserved 9\/11” to praising a Zohran Mamdani administration official\u2019s desire to “\u2019impoverish the White middle-class.\u2019”<\/a><\/p>\n
