Biden made an unexpected appearance at Trinity College, where his son, Hunter Biden, received the Gold Medal for Outstanding Contribution to Public Discourse. A group of protesters assembled outside the college during the event.

As Biden left the building, an object was thrown in his direction, though it was intercepted by an umbrella. Police arrested two individuals at the scene. Video footage circulating online shows officers detaining people amidst chants of “Blood, blood, blood on your hands!”

Biden was quickly ushered into a vehicle, and the motorcade departed as protesters continued to voice their disapproval, chanting, “Shame on you!”

Biden has faced ongoing criticism regarding his administration’s policies concerning the Israel-Hamas conflict, with some activists referring to him as “Genocide Joe” in protest of U.S. military aid to Israel. These critics argue that such assistance contributes to civilian casualties in Gaza.

Fox News Digital has contacted Biden’s office for a response.
