Anti-Israel Protesters Disrupt Colbert’s DNC Interview With Pelosi
In yet another example highlighting that the 2024 Democrat National Convention began as a disaster, then went downhill from there, CBS late-night host Stephen Colbert’s live interview with Nancy Pelosi was repeatedly interrupted by anti-Israel agitators, leading the host to plead: “Please don’t interrupt my guest.”
As Pelosi answered Colbert’s question about her reported involvement in the veritable coup that forced Joe Biden to drop out of the race, shouting from the audience could clearly be heard — and it continued throughout the interview.
To Colbert’s credit, he immediately responded to the demonstrators: “For the people who can’t tell, there’s a protest going on in the audience.” And that protest was aimed directly at Pelosi.
Colbert tried to quiet the disturbance at a commercial break, as he then turned to the use of U.S. power overseas.

There is a political convention in town, you are a politician and protests are natural.

If the goal is the peaceful and prosperous future for both Israelis and Palestinians, what role does the United States play?
