President Joe Biden's visit to Michigan, marked by a celebration of his recent endorsement by the United Auto Workers (UAW) union, is overshadowed by vocal protests from the Arab-American community. Discontent over Biden's failure to call for a ceasefire in Gaza has led to 'F*** Joe Biden!' chants and a pro-Palestinian rally outside his event. The tension is palpable as pro-Palestinian protesters face off with police. Despite the UAW's backing, the absence of meetings with Arab Americans, who are frustrated by U.S. support for Israel in the conflict that has resulted in over 26,000 Palestinian casualties, underscores a growing divide that could impact Biden's support in this crucial swing state ahead of the general election.
