He did show the pamphlet DHS provided mentioning dhs.gov/dhs-trip on the stream.

Edit :

DHS themselves admitted there was an "inspection" but not much beyond that.

When asked for comment about Piker, a Department of Homeland Security official called his account “nothing but lying for likes.”

“Claims that his political beliefs triggered the inspection are baseless,” Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin said in a statement. “Our officers are following the law, not agendas. Upon entering the country, this individual was referred for further inspection — a routine, lawful process that occurs daily, and can apply for any traveler. Once his inspection was complete, he was promptly released.”

"Our officers are following the law, not agendas."

Laws are written by politicians, who have political agendas; therefore, following the law is following a political agenda.
