Hundreds of protesters descended on the Brooklyn home of Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) this weekend, demanding the U.S. end aid to Israel and a ceasefire.
Dozens of arrests were made, which is ironic if you consider this point from Mollie Hemingway.
From the New York Post:

It’s a shame Brett Kavanaugh didn’t get this kind of protection at his house.

These protesters might be disappointed to know what Schumer is doing right now.
From the Times of Israel:
Schumer to lead bipartisan senators group to Israel to show ‘unwavering’ US supportAhead of a trip to Israel this weekend, Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer says an upcoming administration request for wartime funding could include aid for both Israel and Ukraine.Schumer — the first Jewish Senate majority leader and the highest-ranking Jewish elected official in the US — is leading a bipartisan delegation of senators to Israel this weekend to express support for the country amid its week-old war against Hamas. He told The Associated Press in an interview that he wants to make clear that the United States stands with Israel and also show bipartisan support.“To have a bipartisan delegation, led by the majority leader saying strongly and unequivocally we’re with Israel is going to make a big difference to Israelis,” Schumer said.
The radical left’s position on this situation is maddening and sad.
