"Pro-Palestinian Protests in Chicago Disrupt Traffic, Demand Ceasefire"

Pro-Palestinian demonstrators disrupted traffic on DuSable Lake Shore Drive in Chicago to protest outside U.S. Senator Dick Durbin's residence, demanding an unconditional ceasefire in Gaza. The protest, which is part of a series of mobilizations in Chicago, led to at least one arrest and significant traffic delays. The protestors are calling for an end to what they describe as a genocide in Palestine, funded by U.S. tax dollars. Senator Durbin's office has not yet responded to requests for comment.

Pro-Palestinian demonstrators disrupted the California Assembly, and the Turlock High School community mourned a coach who died in a car crash. Elsewhere, unsealed court documents revealed details about Jeffrey Epstein's abuse allegations without listing alleged "clients" or "co-conspirators," and an imam was shot outside his New Jersey mosque.
