Democrat Schiff repeatedly heckled by pro-Palestinian protesters at victory rally

A victory speech by Democrat Adam Schiff following Tuesday’s primary win in California is seemingly cut short as raucous protesters repeatedly interrupt him with shouts of “Free Palestine,” “Ceasefire now” and “Let Gaza live.”
Some protesters were removed, but many were spread throughout the crowd, forcing Schiff to first try and speak above the bellowing before appearing to hurry his remarks, pausing several times.
Some reports suggest Schiff had been forced to cut his speech short by the protest.

BREAKING: Jews for Ceasefire, including @IfNotNowLA & @JVP_LA, and allies just completely shut down Adam Schiff's Super Tuesday speech. He gave up on his prepared remarks and left the stage.

Schiff, a Jewish congressman who has been outspoken in support of Israel’s right to defend itself, changed directions Tuesday and endorsed the Biden administration’s call for a Gaza ceasefire as part of a broader agreement that would include the release of hostages.
“My position is the same as the administration,” Schiff says.
Schiff will face off against former baseball star Steve Garvey for the US Senate seat long held by the late Dianne Feinstein.
