Hasan created his empire on social media.
While still working as both a host and a producer at The Young Turks, Hasan began officially streaming on Twitch in March 2018 and quickly became one of the platforms top voices for his political content that resonated with young viewers, according to the New York Times.
“People came to me because they wanted to hear a point of view — and maybe not a manicured point of view either, but an honest point of view,” he told the outlet in a 2020 interview. Leftist millennial and Gen Z followers responded to his approach to political news that was decidedly less buttoned-up and filtered in comparison to traditional news outlets.
Hasan’s political content demonstrates a different way to reach young voters.
As his Twitch videos and streams became increasingly more popular, Hasan went on to work with Congressional officials. In October 2020, Hasan partnered with Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Rep. Ilhan Omar and organized a “Get Out the Vote” stream of the playing the game Among Us to attract young voters.
During the first political debate of the 2020 election between former President Joe Biden and Donald Trump, Hasan’s live commentary of the event on Twitch brough in 125,000 viewers — which was the highest viewership of all debate coverage on the platform, the New York Times reported.
Hasan’s harsh words for political officials resulted in a Twitch ban.
He was previously banned from Twitch in 2021, but more recently, in March 2025, Hasan was temporarily banned from Twitch due to his comments about Florida Senator Rick Scott during a live stream. “If you cared about Medicare fraud or Medicaid fraud, you would kill Rick Scott, OK?” he said while responding to Rick being interviewed by CNN's Kaitlan Collins.
He clarified his comments and his account was reinstated. “The reason why I’m saying if you care about Medicare or Medicaid fraud you’d kill Rick Scott — and not make him a prominent part of the Republican party — is because he, to this day, is still, also known as committing the largest medicare fraud in U.S. history,” Hasan said.
