Gardaí, Ireland's police, arrested at least two people on Tuesday as pro-Palestinian crowds shouted "Genocide Joe" at the former US president outside Trinity College. Biden had come to watch his son Hunter receive a Gold Medal from the College Historical Society, and the protests targeted his handling of the war in Gaza.
