President Biden’s fundraiser at Radio City Music Hall on Monday night was marred by interruptions from protesters, who shouted anti-Israel slogans and criticized the President’s policies. Former Presidents Barack Obama and Bill Clinton were in attendance, but the event was overshadowed by the demonstrators outside the venue.
Chants of “Free, Free Palestine” echoed outside Radio City Music Hall as protesters expressed their disapproval of Biden and the Democratic Party. The NYPD arrested at least one demonstrator for disorderly conduct as tensions rose during the event.
Inside, the fundraiser featured musical performances and remarks from prominent Democrats, including House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries and Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer. Tickets for the event ranged from $250 to a staggering $500,000, with more than $25 million raised for Biden’s re-election campaign.
Former President Donald Trump took the opportunity to criticize Hollywood liberals who supported Biden, using the event to raise funds for his own campaign. Despite recent polls showing Trump leading the 2024 race, Biden maintains a significant financial advantage.
The fundraiser was organized by Hollywood mogul Jeffrey Katzenberg and Vogue editor-in-chief Anna Wintour, highlighting the influence of the entertainment industry in political fundraising. The protests and disruptions at Radio City Music Hall serve as a reminder of the deep divisions and contentious issues that continue to shape American politics.
