Protests had been taking place outside his home by pro-Palestine demonstrators.
The protesters reportedly chanted slogans including, “shame on you,” “war criminal,” and “bloody Blinken”, calling on the US to stop the “genocide” in Gaza.

It comes as the President even faces a revolt from his own staff after a top Education official quit over the White House “turning a blind eye to atrocities”.
Over a dozen of his staff members wrote an anonymous letter, recieved on Wednesday, protesting Biden’s handling of the ongoing Israel-Hamas war.
The letter, shared on Medium, was signed by 17 Biden for President staff members. It said: “As your staff, we believe it is both a moral and electoral imperative for you to publicly call for a cessation of violence.”
They wrote: “It is not enough to merely be the alternative to Donald Trump. The campaign has to shift the feeling in the pits of voters’ stomachs, the same feeling that weighs on us every day as we fight for your reelection. The only way to do that is to call for a cease-fire.”
