Story summary

On November 10, 2026, pro-Palestinian protesters confronted former US President Joe Biden during a surprise visit to Trinity College Dublin, where his son Hunter Biden was receiving an award. At least two arrests were made as the protesters hurled objects, including what appeared to be milk cartons, at Biden and his wife Jill while they left the venue. The incident occurred outside the College Historical Society (HIST) within Trinity College, with Irish police officers present to maintain order. Hunter was honored for an "Outstanding Contribution for Public Discourse" award. Protesters were upset over Biden's support for Israel during its military campaign against Hamas in 2023 and his subsequent criticism of Israeli actions in Gaza.
