During President Joe Biden's visit to New York City for a fundraising event, hundreds of protesters, including many from Jewish Voices for Peace, gathered at Columbus Circle and other parts of Manhattan, leading to significant traffic disruptions and a strong police presence. The demonstrators opposed U.S. funding of Israel amid the crisis in Gaza, with slogans such as 'Genocide Joe has got to go!' and calls for a ceasefire. The protests, which were partly attributed to The People’s Forum, a CCP-funded organization, resulted in the blockade of Biden's motorcade and the arrest of over 60 individuals for obstructing traffic. President Biden departed NYC in Marine One after the protests caused city-wide traffic headaches.
