Ardent critics of US support for Israel in the Gaza war insist their plans have not changed since Joe Biden dropped out of the race and Kamala Harris took the nomination, even though she is more sympathetic to Palestinians.

Hatem Abudayyeh, national chairman of the Palestinian Community Network of America advocacy group, said: NBC Protesters will be bused in from nearby states.

Their plans were revealed as Biden and Harris prepared to appear in public together for the first time after he was forced to drop out of the race.

Tens of thousands of pro-Palestinian protesters prepare to descend on Chicago for Democratic convention

Pro-Palestinian groups are planning to bus tens of thousands of protesters to Chicago next week to demonstrate at the Democratic National Convention.

Ardent critics of US support for Israel in the Gaza war insist their plans have not changed since Joe Biden dropped out of the race and Kamala Harris took the nomination, even though she is more sympathetic to Palestinians.

Hatem Abudayyeh, national chairman of the Palestinian Community Network of America advocacy group, said: NBC Protesters will be bused in from nearby states.

He added that a virtual meeting was held with members after Biden ended his presidential campaign and they agreed that nothing would change.

“We are not going to do anything different. We are going to mobilize,” Abudayyeh said.

“Harris represents the administration, he represents Biden. There is nothing he has said independently that tells us he does not support the policies.”

Harris is set to formally accept the Democratic nomination for president in her convention speech Thursday night.

Biden will speak on inaugural night, followed by Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton, Bill Clinton and a host of celebrities.

Exclusive:Six in ten voters say Joe Biden should resign as president now

Joe Biden may have ended his re-election bid, but nearly six in 10 voters believe he should go further and resign as president.

The 81-year-old bowed to pressure last month and stepped aside as a Democratic presidential candidate after enduring weeks of scrutiny following a disastrous debate performance.

Now voters are wondering whether he is fit enough to lead the country if he is not fit enough to run again.

A whopping 57 percent of likely voters surveyed by JL Partners said they believe the nation’s longest-serving president should resign now.

Those numbers include nearly half of Democrats, or 47 percent.

Joe Rogan praises Kamala Harris’ ‘great speech’ in Atlanta… and reveals why Trump has a ‘problem’

Joe Rogan praised Kamala Harris on a recent episode of his podcast, praising her speech in Atlanta and saying she “did great.”

In an episode with guest comedian and actor Adam Ray, Rogan said Harris gave “a spectacular speech” last month in Atlanta.

As the two discussed how a debate between Trump and Harris would play out, Rogan referenced last month’s speech, saying the current vice president “crushed” it.

Rogan said this will be a “problem” for Trump, who has been hesitant to commit to a debate against Harris.

“I have to say, in a speech she gave right after they decided she was going to be the nominee, she said, ‘If you’re going to say something, why don’t you just say it to my face? ‘ It was a perfect moment,” Rogan admitted.
