Anti-Israel Protests Outside Chicago DNC Threaten to Tarnish Kamala Harris Coronation, Plans for 10k+

[Turd Fergusen]

CHICAGO — Tens of thousands of protesters are expected to march outside the Democratic National Convention in the Windy City in opposition to the Biden-Harris administration’s support for Israel — threatening to tarnish Vice President Kamala Harris’ weeklong presidential nomination fest.

A coalition of mostly left-wing and Arab- and Muslim-American groups are planning two protest marches — the first and largest on Monday at noon ahead of retiring President Biden’s evening appearance and again on Thursday at 5 p.m. ahead of Harris’ acceptance speech.

“The Democratic Party is the target and not Joe Biden as an individual or Kamala Harris as an individual … She’s just as complicit as Biden is,” said Hatem Abudayyeh, the executive director of the Arab American Action Network who cited her opposition to an arms embargo on Israel as evidence that her attempt to seem more “empathetic” rings hollow.

Protesters will be camped out at Chicago’s Union Park — a roughly 10-minute walk from the nearby United Center that will serve as the main convention venue.

Massive attendance had been expected at protests when Biden, 81, was the party’s presumptive nominee — but his decision to retire on July 21 and endorse Harris, 59, has cast some uncertainty over the scale of protests, though organizers say they still expect tens of thousands of participants.

Biden has been denounced as “Genocide Joe” at large and passionate protests – including one in November when thousands of demonstrators painted the White House’s gates red while chanting, “F–k Joe Biden.”

But Harris has been able to address large rallies with few interruptions over the past month — with the exception of Detroit, where protesters interrupted her Aug. 7 chanting “We won’t vote for genocide,” prompting the VP to sternly scold them, “If you want Donald Trump to win, then say that,” before giving a cold stare and head-snap.

Harris’ brushoff of that heckling drew mixed reviews — with some on social media praising her directness and others saying it was insulting to the communities the activists represent.

Meh, that's the way the cookie crumbles. She's not trying to get a job as the assistant manager at a pizza parlor. This is a good stress test, because there's a lot of this for any president. It's a miserable, stressful, thankless job. I don't know why anyone wants it.

With power you get the money and the sex.

chance to serve your country?

People enlist in a branch of the military to serve the country. People get into politics to serve themselves.

People enlist in a branch of the military to serve their nation,
People get into politics to serve an aspiration.

That's wise to remember. Not too shabby JP.
