Biden causes traffic in Westchester to meet with Hollywood celebrities.
Driving through Westchester County this past weekend might have been a bit of a headache for locals as President Joe Biden made his way to hobnob with Hollywood stars. The presidential motorcade caused quite the traffic snarl as Biden attended a fundraising event hosted by director Rob Reiner and his wife, Michelle, in their sprawling estate in Bedford Hills.
The event was a star-studded affair with big names like Michael Douglas, Billy Crystal, and Bette Midler in attendance. Guests were treated to cocktails and a fancy sit-down dinner with tickets for the event reportedly starting at $100,000 per person. The Biden administration has been actively fundraising for the upcoming mid-term elections, and this event was just one in a series of high-profile gatherings.
While the event was a success in terms of filling campaign coffers, it did cause some inconvenience for local residents. Roads were closed off, and security was tight as the president made his way through the county. Some residents took to social media to express their frustration at the traffic delays, with one Twitter user jokingly asking, “Is there a Hollywood star shortage in LA that Biden had to come here?”
Despite the traffic snarls, the event was a hit with attendees who enjoyed rubbing elbows with Hollywood elites while supporting the Democratic party. Biden took the stage to deliver a speech thanking guests for their support and emphasizing the need for unity within the party to push forward their agenda.
As the evening wound down, guests were seen leaving the Reiner estate in a flurry of well-dressed individuals climbing into their luxury vehicles. The president’s motorcade departed soon after, leaving behind memories of a glamorous evening in Westchester County that had momentarily brought together the worlds of politics and entertainment.

While it may have inconvenienced some locals with traffic delays, the star-studded affair was a reminder of the close ties between Hollywood and politics. As the sun set on the Reiner estate, guests departed with full hearts and wallets, knowing they had contributed to a cause they believed in.
