Rep. Brandon Gill Fires Back After Hasan Piker Targets His Wife

Gill Answers Piker’s Claims About America

Rep. Brandon Gill responded after Hasan Piker’s interview with Axios included the claim that, “pound for pound,” America conducts more terror around the world than al-Qaeda. In a Sept. 18 post, Gill called Piker the “poster child” for why birth tourism should end. Gill said Piker was born in America to Turkish nationals, raised in Turkey to hate Western civilization, and now spends his time working to make America weaker while strengthening America’s enemies. Those are Gill’s descriptions of Piker and his political views. The dispute then moved from Piker’s comments about America’s conduct abroad to immigration, citizenship, and national loyalty.

Piker Turns the Argument Toward Gill’s Wife

Rather than directly answering Gill’s criticism, Piker posted a short response aimed at Gill’s wife, Danielle D’Souza Gill. “Your wife is Indian,” Piker wrote. Danielle is the daughter of author and commentator Dinesh D’Souza and Dixie Brubaker. Piker’s post shifted the focus from his comments about America to Danielle’s family background.

Gill Responds With His Own Broadside

Gill answered that his wife is “an American, born in America to American citizens” who deeply loves the nation and its culture. He then accused Piker of being born to “foreign invaders” and wanting to turn America into the “third world culture” where he was raised. Gill also accused Piker of advocating communism while living at a $3 million mansion and referenced an allegation that Piker had electrocuted his dog. These were claims in Gill’s response to Piker’s post.

Dinesh D’Souza and the Michigan Senate Race Enter the Fight

Dinesh D’Souza also responded on Sept. 19. He wrote, “She’s Christian, born in America, and her mom is white. Care to shows us a picture of your family?” Piker is also described as one of the main cheerleaders for far-left Michigan Senate Democratic candidate Abdul El-Sayed. El-Sayed has repeatedly been asked to disavow Piker’s comments, including Piker’s assertion that “America deserved 9/11.” Instead, El-Sayed defended the statement as having been taken “out of context” and attributed the controversy to “gotcha politics” and “cancel culture.”
