Demonstrators shout 'F--- you' at Chicago police on 2nd night of DNC

Anti-Israel protesters were observed shouting expletives at police officers and telling them to quit their jobs during the second night of the Democratic National Convention in Chicago.

One demonstrator stood in front of a group of fellow demonstrators and shouted "F--- you!" at the wall of Chicago police officers standing across from them outside a building that houses the Israeli consulate.

"You guys do not care about the city of Chicago, you do not care about the people standing behind me and you don't care about the people of the city!" the protester shouted at the officers.

"F--- every single one of you until you quit your job," the protester added.

Some demonstrators were holding Palestinian flags, while many wore black and had face coverings.

Police later warned the protesters that they would be taken into custody if they did not disperse from the area.

The protesters were subsequently heard chanting "Let us go!" as police marched towards them and detained several people.

Police were seen confiscating a megaphone and placing zip ties on at least five people.

One officer was seen pulling the jacket hood off of a protester's head after he was detained.

During the demonstration on Tuesday, protesters also burned an American flag and chanted "Free Palestine."

A large police presence remained hours after the demonstrations began.

This, as the celebratory roll call for Vice President Kamala Harris to officially be declared the Democratic Party's presidential nominee was taking place inside the United Center about two miles away.

Israel supporters, including some relatives of people kidnapped by Hamas, gathered earlier in the day at a pro-Israel art installation not far from the consulate to urge U.S. leaders to continue supporting Israel and pushing for the release of hostages.

Harris energizes crowd in surprise virtual DNC appearance while campaigning in key swing state

MILWAUKEE, WI - Vice President Kamla Harris took the Democrats' convention on the road on Tuesday, as she and running mate Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz headed to nearby battleground Wisconsin.

Speaking in front of a packed Fiserv Forum, the same arena where the Republicans held their national nominating convention one month ago, Harris pointed to her battle against former President Trump, saying "this is not 2016 or 2020," and warning that "the stakes are higher."

Portions of the rally in Milwaukee, Wisconsin's largest city and a blue bastion in a crucial purple state, were beamed into the United Center 90 miles south in Chicago, site of the four-night Democratic National Convention.

And the crowd of Democratic activists and supporters in Milwaukee - which the campaign put at over 15,000 - watched portions of the ceremonial nomination roll call from the convention in Chicago on the big screens inside the arena.

"The delegates at the Democratic National Convention, well they just completed their roll call. And they have nominated Coach Walz and me to be the next vice president and President of the United States of America," Harris said to sustained cheers as she came out on stage after the conclusion of the roll call.

HARRIS AND TRUMP HOLD DUELING RALLIES IN THE BIGGEST OF THE BATTLEGROUNDS

Since replacing President Biden at the top of the Democrats' 2024 ticket, the vice president has been riding a wave of energy, with a jump in polling and fundraising as the battle with Trump is once again a margin-of-error race.

Wisconsin is one of seven swing states that will likely determine the outcome of November's presidential election. And hours before Harris' arrival, Trump's running mate - Sen. JD Vance of Ohio - was campaigning in the southeastern corner of the state.

"Wisconsin, we have 77 days until the election. 77 days," Harris stressed. "And look, we know this is going to be a tight race until the very end. We have some hard work ahead of us. We have hard work ahead of us. But we like hard work."

Harris repeatedly criticized Trump, including over the issue of abortion, a leading issue that has energized Democrats since the overturning two years ago of the landmark Roe v. Wade Supreme Court ruling which had legalized abortion.

"Just yesterday, when he was asked if he has any regrets about ending Roe v Wade, Donald Trump, without even a moment's hesitation, you would think you'd reflect on it for a second. Said no. No regrets," Harris said as she pointed to an interview by the former president.

TRUMP, VANCE, HIT CAMPAIGN TRAIL TO COUNTERPROGRAM HARRIS, WALZ, AND DEMOCRATS' CONVENTION

Walz, in energetic comments ahead of Harris' appearance, also took aim at Trump as he looked back at last month's GOP convention and the former president's nomination acceptance speech.

"Donald Trump subjected us to 92 minutes of ranting and raving insanity," Walz charged. "Now look, they left here riding high. They were feeling good. This thing was over. Well, trust me, Milwaukee, a h-ll of a lot can change in four weeks."

And Walz, taking a verbal shot at the GOP ticket, argued that "you run a campaign based on fear like them, you're going to run into a little trouble when you run into a campaign that's based on joy."

The Trump campaign, criticizing Walz's energetic arrival on stage, wrote in a social media post that "you simply cannot trust a man who gesticulates this wildly. Freak!"

At one point during her speech, Harris reiterated her pledge to lower inflation, which has persistently plagued Americans during Biden's three and a half years in office.

"We believe in a future where we lower the cost of living! When I am president, I will bring down the cost of groceries," the vice president vowed.

The Trump campaign, in another social media post, spotlighted the clip and asked "Was there something stopping her from doing that in the 3.5 years she has been in the White House?"

The rally by Harris and Walz came one night after the vice president made a little bit of political convention history, as she spoke from the podium at the United Center as she praised Biden.

The surprise appearance appeared to be a very rare occurrence of a presidential nominee speaking from the podium ahead of their formal acceptance speech, which is traditionally on the last night of a convention.

Biden's speech at the convention, which capped Monday night's session, came four weeks and one day after his blockbuster announcement that he was ending his own White House bid and endorsing his vice president to replace him.

Twenty-four hours later in Milwaukee, Harris pointed to her boss and said "wasn't he terrific last night. And I know we are all deeply grateful for his lifetime of service to our nation. Thank you. Joe."

Her comments spurred chants of "thank you, Joe," throughout the arena."
