The Democratic National Convention kicked off in Chicago, featuring President Joe Biden, First Lady Jill Biden, and former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton among the speakers. The event is set under the theme 'For the People', celebrating Vice President Kamala Harris as the newly confirmed Democratic nominee following Biden's endorsement after he exited the race. Jill Biden is expected to emphasize unity and support for Harris in her speech, while Harris will formally accept her nomination on Thursday. The convention will also highlight abortion rights, with speakers sharing personal stories related to the issue. Concurrently, significant pro-Palestinian protests are planned outside the venue, reflecting growing discontent with the Biden administration's policies.
