Jill Biden Humiliated As She’s Met By Protesters At Vermont Fundraising Event
When the First Lady Jill Biden headed to the super-liberal state of Vermont for a fundraising event on Tuesday, she likely wasnât expecting to be met by angry protesters. Unfortunately for her, however, thatâs exactly what happened!
Protesters Target Jill
My NBC 5 reported that when Jill arrived in the town of Norwich for a fundraising event, she was undoubtedly shocked to be met by pro-Palestinian protesters who were quick to roll out the unwelcome mat for her.
âWe wanted to roll out the âunwelcoming mat,’â Nancy Welch, an organizer of Tuesdayâs protest and a member of Upper Valley for Palestine, told the Valley News.
âThe Biden White House hasnât heard the voices of the majority of Americans who are appalled by the ongoing slaughter in Gaza and want an immediate and permanent ceasefire,â she continued.
âWe are very and disturbed with the Biden administration right now, for continuing to aid and abet what we believe is a genocide,â added Hayden Smith, a member of Upper Valley for Palestine.

Protesters âTried To Just Be As Loud As Possibleâ
During the private fundraising event that Jill attended in Norwich, used noisemakers like pots, pans, and musical instruments as they marched down the streets of town to let the First Lady know that she was not welcome there.
âWe tried to just be as loud as possible, because people are trying to get the ear of the White House and the federal government and weâre just not being listened to,â Welch explained. âWe were going to use our noise and our numbers, making our ruckus to disturb the peace of people probably enjoying lavish appetizers while people in Gaza are starving.â
âWeâre using every mechanism that we have to make our voices heard; weâve been protesting for months,â said Rowan Wade, another protester with Upper Valley for Palestine. âWe were protesting before Oct. 7. Weâll be protesting until there is a permanent ceasefire and until there is freedom for all Palestinian people.â
The protesters made it clear that each presidential candidateâs stance on the war in Gaza will have a major impact on how they vote.
âTo get my vote, Joe Biden has to really change the policy soon,â said Liz Blum, of Jewish Voice For Peace.
The demonstrators ended their protest with a final chant before reconvening on the Norwich Green to express their hopes that Jill heard their message loud and clear.

Jill Previously Being Targeted By Protesters
Jill has found herself becoming a frequent target of protesters as she desperately tries to campaign for her husband. Earlier this month, a speech that she was giving on womenâs issues in Tucson, Arizona was interrupted by anti-Israel protesters, according to The Hill.
âJill, when are you and the president going to call for a cease-fire in Gaza?â one of the protesters stood up and yelled, with another adding, âThis is a genocide being committed by our tax dollars â women and girls that matter.â
This all should just go to show Jill that her husband isnât nearly as popular among Democrats as she would like to believe. If she canât even get through a fundraising event in the incredibly liberal state of Vermont without being targeted by protesters, her husbandâs re-election chances certainly are not looking good!
