Protesters block traditional motorcade route between White House and Capitol
From CNN's Gabe Cohen, Aileen Graef and MJ LeeDozens of pro-Palestinian protesters are blocking the traditional motorcade route between the White House and the Capitol ahead of President Joe Biden’s State of the Union address Thursday night.
The demonstrators are at the intersection of Pennsylvania and Constitution Avenues with a banner blocking the roadway.
There are multiple routes to the Capitol the motorcade may take so this is more of a symbolic blockade.
There is a large police presence on the scene. There is no word of any arrests at this point.
White House officials said they have been watching the images of the protests. Demonstrations have become very commonplace near the White House, not to mention at Biden’s speeches.
“They’ve been out there most weeks,” one White House official said. “We’re aware of their concerns.”
That's right everyone, they blocked streets for the President and no arrests were made.
Meanwhile, a grieving father of a fallen soldier that Biden once commanded at the Capital was arrested by Joe Biden for speaking his mind.
Sounds about right.
Soon Biden and the DNC will normalize another Jewish genocide.
