SUBJECT LINE: Major concern about handling of 2026 College Democrats Convention
Dear [INSERT NAME],
I hope you are doing well. My name is [NAME] and I'm a constituent from [CITY, ZIP].
**I'm reaching out to express my concern about the handling of the 2026 College Democrats of America Convention, especially in respect to the invitation and presence of the controversial livestreamer Hasan Piker at the event.**
For context, Hasan has a longstanding record of major controversies, including having said that America "deserved" 9/11 and that "it doesn't matter if f***ing rapes happened on October 7th" (https://www.cnn.com/2026/04/08/politics/video/inside-politics-hasan-piker).
Hasan has said that he "doesn't give a fuck about the Democratic Party" and that he is trying to infiltrate our party to try and push his own agenda (https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=JPTVgqk21n0). When Hasan spoke at the conference, he described himself as "an outsider, currently pushing for an insurgency" (https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=7xgBUSzF6d4&t=68s&pp=2AFEkAIBiggCQAE%3D) and concluded his speech by saying "No more to the Democrats, who compromise, who conciliate, and who betray us" while literally dressed as Mao Zedong, the Chinese communist revolutionary (https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=QnWyB9bedx0).
Hasan was also able to get Cameron Landin, the Executive Vice President of College Democrats, to kick out another livestreamer Destiny and other influencers who have been openly critical of Hasan for these stances (https://x.com/i/status/2078634510049058943). Notably, none of these other influencers caused any commotion or broke any of the event rules (https://x.com/northislive/status/2078601086420623590). This is especially concerning because Destiny is an actual supporter of the Democratic Party with a proven track record of rallying his followers to canvass for Democratic candidates (https://www.yahoo.com/news/why-high-profile-youtuber-stream-103000521.html).
**If you are interested in helping address this, please email Sohali Vaddula, the National President for College Democrats, at [email protected] and ask that (1) the organization issue a refund and a public apology to anyone who was kicked out of the event because of Hasan, and (2) that Cameron Landin be removed from his position as Executive Vice-President.** Not only is Cameron enabling open enemies of the Democratic Party to have a platform and sow division within our movement, but he is also allowing those enemies to exclude real supporters and allies to our cause. Cameron has done real harm, and there needs to be real consequences.
Sincerely,
