Tens of thousands of pro-Palestinian protesters marched across Washington DC on Saturday to protest US involvement in the Israel-Hamas war, stopping outside the White House to shout "Allahu Akbar" , "Fuck Joe Biden," and "Biden, Biden, you can't hide! We charge you with genocide!" -  while smearing red paint and pushing on the gate.

They also defaced and vandalized historic monuments across DC.

Earlier Saturday, rapper Macklemore spoke at a pro-Palestinian rally in DC, in which he told the crowd that "They told me to be quiet, they told me to do my research, to go back, that it’s too complex to say something, to be silent in this moment," referring to the pro-Israel camp.

"In the last three weeks, I’ve gone back and I have done some research, I’m teachable," he told the crowd. "I don’t know everything, but I know enough to know that this is a genocide."

Macklemore first offered Palestinians his support two weeks ago on Instagram, where he said he couldn’t “stay silent any longer.”

The rapper said he was “deeply hurt for the Israelis that lost loved ones,” but didn’t believe in “killing innocent humans in retaliation.”

“This is why I am supporting the people around the world who are calling for a ceasefire. We are witnessing an unfolding genocide in Palestine at this very moment.”

At the DC event, many speakers took hits at the President, especially his pledge to send $14 billion in aid to Israel. -NY Post

Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) also spoke out, posting a video in which he condemned Israel's "indiscriminate bombing" for "hitting hospitals, refugee camps, and killing thousands of innocent people."

The anti-Biden backlash to US support of Israel is a serious issue for Democrats, whose support they rely on.

The leftists at The Hill panicked, framing the situation as "Sure - American Muslims might be pissed, but Trump's worse!"

...which comes on the heels of the White House's ham-fisted 'strategy to combat Islamophobia," which the DC protesters immediately saw right through.

Oh, and Kamala Harris's stepdaughter (whose father is Jewish) just raised $8 million for Gaza. Let's see if that's enough to convince protesters that $14.3 billion to Israel right now isn't 'funding genocide,' as they say.
