A tall fence has been installed to wrap around the U.S. Capitol building in order to prepare for Joe Biden’s State of the Union address and due to “safety concerns.”

The fencing was put up after it was recommended by the U.S. Capitol Police and Secret Service as a safety precaution.

Many Republicans pointed out the hypocrisy of the Biden administration, specifically how the administration was quick to erect a security fence around the Capitol building for Biden’s speech, while neglecting to address necessary security measures at the Southern border.

In December 2023, border crossings reached a new record. The U.S. Border Patrol recorded approximately 250,000 instances of encounters with migrants attempting to cross into the United States during that month.

Remember this when @POTUS talks about the border tonight.

Biden doesn’t hesitate to put a barrier up for his speech in Washington but refuses to build a wall and secure the southern border. https://t.co/QHnHWmEl2G

They claim a border wall to protect America is racist & immoral

But it took them less than 12 hours to put up a fence around the Capitol to protect themselves at tonight’s #SOTU2024 pic.twitter.com/e6VMqnRM6v
