Hasan is lying again.. Lawyer says it's defamation | Asmongold TV

A lawyer who goes by "Legal Mindset" on YouTube is pushing back after Hasan Piker, a streamer with 1.7 million followers, called him a "fake lawyer" and a "Rumble streamer" in a public broadcast. The attorney, who is licensed in Florida and holds a law degree from the University of Florida, argues that these statements are not just insults but potentially defamatory — and that Hasan may also be violating a specific California cyber harassment statute. The episode is organized around a single claim: that large streamers like Hasan can no longer treat false statements about people as harmless banter, because the industry has grown large enough that legal accountability is coming.
