They detained an American citizen, questioned him about his beliefs and criticisms of Trump. This could be any of us who have public opinions the administration doesn't like.
“I could explain Hasan Piker’s politics to you, but that’s entirely irrelevant. The bold, all caps, underlined point is that a high profile, US-born American citizen was detained on Sunday by ICE for, it would seem, the crime of speech.”
Hasan Piker’s ICE detainment is a cautionary tale for multiple reasons
The progressive Twitch star's account of his experience shows unchecked power, and what *not* to do if detained.

Asked for proof of a warrant ICE wouldn’t provide it. When the teachers asked to provide ICE with their proof of being legal they were not allowed to do so. They had no rights. This is all illegal. Next it could be you.
A Maui public school teacher went public with the harrowing story of armed federal agents waking her and 10 other teachers on legal, non-immigrant work visas in a dawn raid on Tuesday, detaining them for at least 45 minutes — searching for a man who hadn’t lived in the home for more than a year.

Important decision which touches on Betar and Canary Mission's influence on getting people deported.
The judge highlights how ONE DAY after Betar tweeted that it had "submitted [Ercelik's] name for deportation," the State Department revoked his visa. The day after that DHS issued an arrest warrant.
The judge highlights how ONE DAY after Betar tweeted that it had "submitted [Ercelik's] name for deportation," the State Department revoked his visa. The day after that DHS issued an arrest warrant.
![1. Facts Relevant to the Constitutional Claims On November 3, 2023, Petitioner walked past and then approached a pro-Israel event at the University of Massachusetts Amherst, where he was previously enrolled. Before engaging in a physical altercation with a pro-Israel protester, Petitioner waved a Palestinian flag, raised his middle fingers to pro-Israel protestors, and expressed his own pro-Palestine views using sometimes crude language. Following the above-mentioned physical altercation, a police officer arrived on the scene. Three days later, Petitioner was charged for the altercation in East Hampshire District Court. After it was determined that Petitioner was neither a flight risk nor a danger to the community, he was released on $250.00 bail. Over the next 16 months, very little happened in connection to Petitioner’s conduct on November 3. Instead, he complied with all conditions of release and, with permission, traveled outside of the United States on two occasions, interacting with immigration officials upon reentry each time. Petitioner has since pled guilty to misdemeanors, [FN 4] with no required imprisonment, resolving the criminal matter in whole.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:2vtbmhmrwzbqcfv4we4uxzzt/bafkreibi3sef3rb7lyatpdlaqw6pzbyoru7pqdodc45z3f45bpjjidn3tu@jpeg)
![During this time, a profile for Petitioner appeared on the website for Canary Mission, an organization that claims its mission is to “document[] individuals and organizations that promote hatred of the USA, Israel and Jews on North American college campuses and beyond.” The profile of Petitioner discusses the events of November 3. On April 8, 2025, Betar Worldwide, an organization that claims its mission is “to empower Jews to stand strong, speak out, and defend their heritage and Israel against all threats,” tweeted an image from Petitioner’s Canary Mission profile. Along with the image, the tweet claimed to “have submitted [Petitioner’s] name for deportation.” [Dkt. 9-5]. It appears that Petitioner’s name had, in fact, recently been “submitted for deportation.” On April 9, 2025, just a day after the tweet, the Deputy Assistant Secretary of State for Visa Services sent a memo to ICE regarding revocation of Petitioner’s visa, effective that same day. 5 On April 10, 2025, the Department of Homeland Security issued an administrative warrant for Petitioner’s arrest, claiming “the execution of a charging document to initiate removal proceedings against the subject” as a basis for the arrest.
[FN4] Both Petitioner and Respondents confirmed that the pled-to misdemeanors cannot serve as grounds for removability.
[FN 5] 5 The memo read: “On March 31, 2025, in response to a request from DHS/ICE and the assessment from DHS/ICE that Efe ERCELIK had been involved in antisemitic activities that ‘involvement in antisemitic activities, his hateful rhetoric against Jewish students, and his violent attack of Jewish student on campus may indicate support for a](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:2vtbmhmrwzbqcfv4we4uxzzt/bafkreihyd5htk4qkhtvfauypvofgfbzwp2kbe5h4xfw42bhgzadnyxxnpu@jpeg)
