Hasan Piker says U.S. actions cause more deaths worldwide than al-Qaeda, pound-for-pound

In an Axios Show interview, Hasan Piker argues that pound-for-pound the United States has caused more deaths globally than al-Qaeda, citing incidents like a Minab, Iran school attack and noting his past apology for saying 'America deserved 9/11.' His framing has become a political flashpoint in Michigan’s Senate race, with Republicans tying Abdul El-Sayed to Piker while El-Sayed distanced himself and focused on policy.
