President Trump’s Treasury Department Subpoenas Hasan Piker and Medea Benjamin Over Cuba Trip

President Trump’s administration is not playing around with Cuba sanctions enforcement.

Federal officials have served administrative subpoenas on left-wing streamer Hasan Piker and CodePink cofounder Susan Medea Benjamin as part of a widening investigation into whether American activists violated U.S. sanctions law during a March trip to Cuba.

The subpoenas, formally described as Requests for Information, came from the Treasury Department’s Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) and seek financial, logistical, and communications records related to the so-called “Nuestra America Convoy.”

Piker and Benjamin are not the only ones in the crosshairs. Investigators are looking at as many as 40 American citizens who joined foreign nationals and activist groups connected to the convoy, and additional subpoenas are expected.
