A viral post circulating on X claims that Brooke Jenkins, the District Attorney of San Francisco, threatened to arrest political commentator Hasan Piker if he entered the city.
The post, which appears to be from an impersonation/parody account, reads that Jenkins would have Piker arrested and prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law due to his left-wing critiques of SF policy.
However, Grok verified that the claim is fake and comes from a parody account, riffing on the real DA's tough-on-crime stance.
The post seems to be linked to a discussion involving Hasan Piker in a New York Times Opinion podcast about 'microlooting,' where small-scale theft from large corporations was debated.
Piker made controversial remarks during the discussion, including being 'pro stealing from big corporations' and clarifying that he personally doesn't engage in such actions.
Hasan Piker has faced multiple suspensions on Twitch, with his last ban coming on January 29, 2026, though the exact reason or duration is unknown.
