Pro-Palestine protesters flood Chicago ahead of DNC

Pro-Hamas protesters gathered in downtown Chicago ahead of the Democratic National Convention (DNC), which begins on Monday.

In preparation for the convention, the DNC erected a large barrier around the event site and implemented strict ID requirements for entry, despite their opposition to voter ID laws and border security, which they have criticized as being “racist.”

Vice President Kamala Harris arrived in Chicago on Sunday night after a tour through western Pennsylvania. Throughout the day, Harris was met with Trump supporters at various stops.

As Harris arrived in Chicago, far-left protesters were already taking to the streets, demanding that the DNC “go home.”

A video posted on social media shows thousands of pro-Palestine demonstrators and rioters flooding downtown Chicago, with reports indicating that an entire street had been shut down. The large crowd of protesters significantly outnumbered the police presence.

Protesters were heard chanting, “Racist, sexist, anti-gay, Christian fascists go away!” and “DNC go home! Or we’re gonna bring the war home!”

With the convention set to begin, the tension and protests suggest a tumultuous start to the DNC in Chicago.
