At the August 19, 2024 "March on the DNC" pro-Palestine rally in Chicago, Nesreen Hasan of the U.S. Palestinian Community Network (USPCN) said: "We will end Zionism!" Hatem Abudayyeh, spokesman of the March on the DNC referred to U.S. Vice President Kamala Harris as "Killer Kamala," to U.S. President Joe Biden as "Genocide Joe," and to U.S. State Secretary Antony Blinken as "Baby-Killer Blinken." Activists with the Palestinian Feminist Collective said that the Democratic Party may be blue, but that Kamala Harris and Joe Biden's hands are red with the blood of innocent Palestinian children. Another activist said: "We will resist by any means necessary."
Pro-North Korea activist Ju-Hyun Park of Nodutol for Korean Community Development said that the U.S. and South Korea are rehearsing for the invasion of North Korea, and Anees Aqel of Palestine Solidarity in Grand Rapids, MI praised the Palestinian "resistance fighters." Omar Flores of the Coalition for the March on the RNC in Milwaukee also said: "Democrats cannot defeat the Republicans without defeating the genocide first… We are going to force them!" Protesters at the rally held signs issued by the Freedom Road Socialist Organization (FRSO) bearing the text: "Victory to the Palestinian Resistance!"
Nasreen Hasan, U.S. Palestinian Community Network: "We know Jared [Kushner] was honored by the anti-black, anti-Arab, anti-Muslim, Anti-Defamation League – ADL. The ADL had him as a speaker at the convention, so that's why we marched on the DNC.

Muna, Palestinian Feminist Collective: "The Democratic Party can no longer hide behind the false veil of inclusion. A woman of color ordering the death of innocent children is neither progressive nor ethical. It is the highest of betrayals and an affront to the very essence of humanity. To Kamala Harris and Joe Biden we say: Your party may be blue, but your hands are stained with the red blood of Palestinian mothers and children."
