Quick Glance: Fact Check: Biden Repeats Claim of Arrest for Defending Civil Rights. Still No Evidence

President Joe Biden reiterated his story of allegedly trying to defend the civil rights of Black Americans on 'The Howard Stern Show.' However, there is no evidence to support his claim of ever being arrested at a civil rights protest, as noted by 'The Washington Post' and 'PolitiFact.'

Biden has told the story of his supposed presence at a specific protest in Delaware at least twice without mentioning an arrest. He stated that the police simply took him home on that day.

It is impossible to prove definitively whether Biden was present at this or a similar protest over 60 years ago. He has also made other false claims about his personal life in the past.

Biden falsely claimed to have 'driven an 18-wheeler' and that he never earned $400,000 in a year. During his 2020 presidential campaign, he claimed to have been 'arrested' as a US senator while trying to visit South African anti-apartheid icon Nelson Mandela in prison, which turned out to be untrue.

Quick Glance: USC Main Commencement Canceled Amid Gaza War Protests

Protests against the Israel-Hamas war prompt the cancellation of USC's main graduation ceremony and numerous arrests at campuses nationwide.

Universities are grappling with protests that could disrupt upcoming commencement ceremonies and are considering changes to regulations regarding encampments and exams.

Some students demand schools sever ties with Israel, leading to accusations of antisemitism and concerns about safety on campus.

The wave of protests, inspired by events at Columbia University, has led to civil rights investigations into universities facing protests and complaints of discrimination amidst the Israel-Hamas conflict.

Quick Glance: Trump compares Charlottesville and Israel-Gaza protests

Former President Trump downplayed the significance of the deadly 2017 white nationalist rally in Charlottesville compared to the rising demonstrations on college campuses over the situation in Gaza.

Trump highlighted that President Biden frequently cites the Charlottesville rally and Trump’s response as a reason for his White House candidacy in 2020.

Trump’s remarks coincided with college campus protests concerning the Israel-Hamas conflict, resulting in numerous Palestinian casualties in Gaza.

Biden has denounced antisemitism in the protests while also criticizing those who fail to grasp the situation with the Palestinians.
