马克思主义政治网红哈森·皮克近日就联邦对其古巴之行的调查大发雷霆，称这是因他对以色列和美国的强硬立场而采取的“恐吓策略”。
皮克的回应得到了美国民主社会主义者组织、亲共产主义及反以色列领导人的呼应，这表明古巴“声援”运动、亲共产主义网红和反以色列活动网络在线上迅速联合起来，将联邦调查定性为针对更广泛的反资本主义、反西方、反以色列活动运动的政治压制，而非制裁或外国影响力调查。
周日下午，皮克在Twitch的直播中告诉粉丝，他之所以被盯上，是因为他是个“大嘴巴”和“煽动者”，批评以色列和“法西斯主义”的美国。
福克斯新闻数字频道周六报道称，美国财政部外国资产控制办公室已向皮克和左翼“粉色代码”联合创始人米迪亚·本杰明发出行政传票，要求提供他们3月古巴之行的财务、后勤和通讯细节，此举可能违反了与古巴政府做生意的相关法律法规。
“情况不太妙，”周日下午直播伊始，皮克对粉丝说道，“这消息糟透了，好吧？嗯，我的意思是，这狗屁不如，但还是很糟……我是说，这狗屁不如，但他们盯上‘你的孩子’了，这还是很糟。他们缠上我了。”
皮克没有回应置评请求，但他在直播中向粉丝承认已收到相关询问。他表示自己的行程已通过外国资产控制办公室的审批，称“我们所做的一切都得到了财政部的批准”。
美国财政部外国资产控制办公室未回应置评请求。
在其关于联邦调查的直播环节尾声，皮克从古巴制裁调查转向，辩称此次审查实际上是因他对以色列的言论引发的反弹。
“顺便说一句，这在很大程度上仍与以色列有关，”他说道，指责批评者“不喜欢我骂以色列”，“不喜欢我是个大嘴巴、煽动者”。
他声称此次调查“不只是关于古巴”，还涉及他在动员反以色列选民和候选人方面发挥的作用。
“他们意识到民主党人和年轻人都反对以色列”，并看到他“与反以色列候选人一起竞选，且他们正在赢得选举”，他说道。
联邦政府就古巴之行传唤哈森·皮克与米迪亚·本杰明

皮克的回应符合近期受到审查的网红活动人士的常见模式：将法律或监管调查重新包装为政治迫害，同时将问题扩大为一场广泛的意识形态斗争。皮克没有狭隘地聚焦于古巴之行相关的制裁问题，而是一再将自己描绘成“亲以色列”民主党人、亲以色列活动人士、主流媒体人物和“法西斯主义”特朗普政府联合发起的运动的受害者。
他频繁将话题从财政部调查的具体细节转移到一个更大的叙事中：据称联邦政府正在将反以色列行动、反资本主义政治和对美国外交政策的反对定为刑事犯罪。他试图将此次调查描绘为强大的政治和媒体机构针对挑战以色列、古巴和美国外交政策既定立场的异见声音的证据。
皮克曾一度表示，他在3月的古巴之行期间制作了一部关于古巴生活的迷你纪录片，称自己是以记者身份行事。在其他时候，他将此次任务描述为“人道主义”努力，将其之行定位为向古巴人民提供“人道主义援助”。
皮克还使用了近年来线上社会主义、共产主义和反资本主义运动中日益流行的语言，活动人士用“爱泼斯坦阶层”作为富裕精英和所谓美国资本主义道德腐败的简称。这种言论重复了美国对手包括古巴、中国、伊朗伊斯兰共和国和俄罗斯的宣传。
他念了一位粉丝的评论：“我们会救你出来，我的兄弟。”

皮克回应道：“我似乎要被当作典型……在美国走向法西斯主义的路上。”
他驳斥了埃隆·马斯克因他昨日采访了马斯克孩子的母亲阿什利·圣克莱尔而“下令”传唤皮克的猜测。两人目前正处于监护权纠纷中。
“我还没收到任何消息，”皮克说道。
“是的，我会请律师，”他在回应一位粉丝时说道。
他表示需要一名精通第一修正案且“熟悉外国资产控制办公室相关规定”的律师。
“我还没遇到这种事，”他说道，“而且这并非我所做的任何事导致的。”
周六晚间，皮克在X平台上发帖称：“美国政府宁愿试图将向我们曾想要饿死的国家运送援助定为犯罪，也不愿惩罚爱泼斯坦阶层。”

当晚10点51分，“粉色代码”的本杰明发帖称：“向古巴儿科医院运送医疗用品现在是犯罪？拯救婴儿的生命是犯罪？本届政府令人作呕。”
本杰明重复了该运动将古巴之行定性为“人道主义”任务的主流说法，尽管组织者和参与者多次将援助活动与公开的政治言论结合起来，谴责特朗普政府、美国制裁政策以及活动人士所称的古巴和拉丁美洲的“帝国主义”和“定居者殖民主义”。
皮克的舅舅、极左翼评论员森克·乌格乌尔是正义民主党人的联合创始人，该社会主义组织曾帮助伊尔汉·奥马尔、拉希达·塔利布和亚历山德里亚·奥卡西奥-科特兹在2018年当选国会议员。乌格乌尔周六晚间在网上为皮克辩护。
“政府显然给哈森发了些狗屁传票，”乌格乌尔写道，“他们正在收紧言论自由的绞索。记住，他们总会找个借口或找些技术细节。他们不会告诉你‘我们这么做是因为不喜欢你说的话’。”
乌格乌尔随后将调查与左翼更广泛的关于压制亲巴勒斯坦和反以色列言论的主张联系起来，辩称政府正在利用法律和程序机制针对政治异见，而非直接审查观点。

皮克称“粉色代码”联合创始人朱迪·埃文斯是“很棒的人”。他在哈瓦那与埃文斯合影，埃文斯随后在古巴的Instagram账号上分享了这张照片。
下午3点刚过，也就是直播开始1小时12分钟后，皮克承认：“我宁愿不用处理这种事。”
半小时后，他坚称自己被盯上是因为强烈反对以色列国的存在，并播放了纽约州共和党众议员迈克·劳勒和新泽西州民主党众议员乔希·戈特海默谈论美国国内日益高涨的反犹太主义浪潮（包括来自皮克的反犹言论）的片段。
在两位议员讨论美国国内日益增多的反犹太主义报告时，皮克一度嗤之以鼻。
皮克随后转向支持伊朗伊斯兰共和国参与美国和以色列结束伊朗战争的谈判，嘲讽以色列代表团的“叽叽喳喳”，批评美国外交政策据称让“以色列掌控了我们整个中东政策”，并将他的独白重点转移到对“犹太复国主义”以色列国和“流氓”美国的批评上。

Marxist political influencer Hasan Piker is lashing out over a federal inquiry into his recent trip to communist Cuba, calling it an “intimidation tactic” prompted by his harsh stance on Israel and the U.S.
The response by Piker — echoed by other leaders from Democratic Socialists of America and pro-communist and anti-Israel leaders — illustrates how quickly the Cuba “solidarity” movement, pro-communist influencers and anti-Israel activist networks converged online to frame the federal inquiry not as a sanctions or foreign influence investigation, but as political repression aimed at broader anti-capitalist, anti-Western, anti-Israel activist movements.
Piker told followers during a livestream on Twitch Sunday afternoon that he is being targeted for being a “loudmouth” and “rabble-rouser,” criticizing Israel and the “fascist” United States.
Fox News Digital reported Saturday that the Treasury Department’s Office of Foreign Assets Control has sent administrative subpoenas to Piker and leftist CodePink co-founder Medea Benjamin to get documents about the financial, logistical and communications details of their March trips to Cuba, in possible violation of laws and regulations about doing business with the government of Cuba.
“It’s not great,” Piker told his followers in the early minutes of his livestream on Sunday afternoon. “The news is not great, okay? Um, I mean, it’s bulls—. But still not great…I mean it’s bulls— but still not great that they’re after your boy. They’re up my a–.”
Piker didn’t respond to requests for comment, although he acknowledged receiving the queries as he spoke to his followers during his livestream. He said that he got his trip cleared by the Office of Foreign Assets Control, saying, “Everything we did was cleared by Treasury.”
The Treasury Department’s Office of Foreign Assets Control didn’t respond to a request for comment.
By the end of his segment on the federal inquiry, Piker pivoted from the Cuba sanctions inquiry to argue that the scrutiny was really driven by backlash to his comments on Israel.
“A lot of this, by the way, does still have a lot to do with Israel,” he said, charging that his critics “don’t like that I talk s— about Israel” and “don’t like that I am a loudmouth, a rabble-rouser.”
He claimed the investigation was not “just about Cuba” but also about his role in boosting anti-Israel voters and candidates.
“They recognize that Democrats and young people are against Israel” and see him “campaigning with candidates who are anti-Israel, and they are winning their races,” he said.

Piker’s response followed a pattern that has become common among online activist influencers under scrutiny: reframing a legal or regulatory inquiry as political persecution while broadening the issue into a sweeping ideological struggle. Rather than focus narrowly on the sanctions questions surrounding the Cuba trip, Piker repeatedly cast himself as the victim of a coordinated campaign by “Israel first” Democrats, pro-Israel activists, mainstream media figures and the “fascist” Trump administration.
He frequently shifted the conversation away from the specifics of Treasury’s inquiry and toward a larger narrative in which the federal government is allegedly criminalizing anti-Israel activism, anti-capitalist politics and opposition to U.S. foreign policy. He sought to portray the investigation as evidence that powerful political and media institutions are targeting dissenting voices who challenge establishment positions on Israel, Cuba and American foreign policy.
At one point, Piker said he created a mini-documentary about life in Cuba during his March trip, saying he was serving as a journalist. In other moments, he has described the mission as a “humanitarian” effort, framing his trip as providing “humanitarian aid” to the people of Cuba.
Piker also characterized the controversy using language increasingly emerging from socialist, communist and anti-capitalist movements online, where activists have used the phrase “Epstein class” as shorthand for wealthy elites and the supposed moral corruption of American capitalism. The rhetoric repeats the propaganda of U.S. adversaries, including Cuba, China, the Islamic Republic of Iran and Russia.
He read a comment from a fan, who wrote, “We’ll free you, my brother.”

Piker responded, “I’m seemingly going to be made an example of…in America’s galloping toward fascism.”
He batted away suspicions that Elon Musk made a “boss call” to subpoena Piker after he did an interview yesterday with Ashley St. Clair, the mother of a baby with Musk. The two are going through a custody dispute.
“I haven’t gotten anything yet,” said Piker.
“Yes, I’ll get lawyered up,” he said, in response to a follower.
He said he needed a lawyer with expertise on the First Amendment and “knowledgeable on OFAC.”
“I haven’t had anything happen to me yet,” he said. “And it’s not like anything I’ve done.”
Saturday evening, Piker posted on X that “the American govt would rather try to criminalize delivering aid to a country we’d starved, than punish the Epstein class.”
MEDIA TAPS TWITCH STAR WHO TOLD VIEWERS TO ‘KILL’ REPUBLICANS FOR COMMENT ON CHARLIE KIRK’S ASSASSINATION

At 10:51 p.m., CodePink’s Benjamin posted: “Taking medical supplies to pediatric hospitals in Cuba is now a crime? Saving the lives of babies is a crime? The administration is beyond grotesque.”
Benjamin repeated the movement’s broader framing of the Cuba trips as “humanitarian” missions, even as organizers and participants repeatedly paired the aid campaigns with overt political rhetoric condemning the Trump administration, U.S. sanctions policy and what activists described as “imperialism” and “settler colonialism” in Cuba and Latin America.
Piker’s uncle, far-left commentator Cenk Ugyur, the co-founder of Justice Democrats, a socialist organization that helped elect Ilhan Omar, Rashida Talib and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez to Congress in 2018, defended him online Saturday night.
“Government apparently sent some bullshit subpoena to Hasan,” Ugyur wrote. “They’re tightening the noose on speech. Remember, they’ll always have an excuse or some technicality. It’s not like they’re going to tell you, ‘We did it because we don’t like what you’re saying.’”
Uygur then linked the investigation to broader left-wing claims about suppression of pro-Palestinian and anti-Israel speech, arguing the government was using legal and procedural mechanisms to target political dissent rather than directly censoring viewpoints.

Piker called CodePink co-founder Jodie Evans a “wonderful person.” He took a photo in Havana with Evans, which she shared on her Instagram account from Cuba.
A little after 3 p.m., one hour and 12 minutes into his livestream, Piker acknowledged, “I would much rather not have to deal with this.”
Half an hour later, he insisted that he was being targeted for his strong opposition to the existence of the state of Israel, playing a clip of Rep. Mike Lawler, R-N.Y., Rep. Josh Gottheimer, D-N.J., as they spoke about the growing tide of anti-semitism, including from Piker.
At one point, Piker scoffed as the two lawmakers discussed increasing reports of antisemitism in the U.S.
Piker later moved on to a segment supporting the the Islamic Republic of Iran in its talks with the U.S. and Israel to end the war in Iran, mocking the Israel delegation’s “chirping,” critiquing U.S. foreign policy for allegedly letting “Israel take control over our entire Middle East policy” and moving the focus of his monologue to a critique of the “Zionist” state of Israel and the “rogue” United States.
