Piker, a prominent Twitch streamer, told the Institute of Politics crowd at UChicago that he believes he was targeted at O’Hare for his criticism of the Trump administration. Sara Machi reports.

Piker says he believes U.S. Customs and Border Patrol was trying to “create an environment of fear” to discourage citizens from speaking negatively about the current administration. He cites other TikTokers who claim they were questioned about their political beliefs while reentering the United States.
