Dozens of pro-Palestinian protesters have gathered at the intersection of Pennsylvania and Constitution Avenues, blocking the traditional motorcade route between the White House and the Capitol. This demonstration comes just hours before President Joe Biden is set to deliver his State of the Union address on Thursday night.
The protesters are holding a banner that is obstructing the roadway, causing a symbolic blockade for the motorcade. While there are multiple alternative routes that the motorcade can take to reach the Capitol, the presence of the demonstrators adds a layer of complexity to the security arrangements.
