Talk about Peak Irony!
I thought Walls don’t work?
And Walls are racist?
Right?
Right….?
Oh, I guess that’s only when President Trump wants to build one to protect our Country.
But in all other instances, they are ok!
They’re ok each time Joe Biden has constructed huge walls in D.C. because there was fear of a social uprising…(remember his inauguration? It looked like a prison camp!)
They’re ok for wealthy celebrities like Oprah, Zuckerberg, and basically all of them….
They’re ok for Nancy Pelosi’s house….
And they’re going up right now outside what is bound to be a massive shit-show at the Democrat National Convention (sorry Franklin).
Take a look:
🚨 The Democrats are currently building a MASSIVE wall around their convention in Chicago
This is PEAK irony 🤣

Oh the irony!
PEAK Irony!
It would be hilarious if it weren’t so maddening!
Here’s what The New York Post reported:
Protesters are expected to wreak such havoc at next week’s Democratic National Convention, some members of Congress have been told not to book hotels in their own names, according to a new report from Axios.
They’ve also been warned to avoid staying in certain area’s of the host city, Chicago, and one Democratic lawmaker told the website they were “very concerned” about personal security. At least some area hotels have been getting calls from people with random requests for names.
“The protesters aren’t staying in a designated protest site … and there are people who are going to go and really try to cause trouble,” the lawmaker added.

Per CBS:
The preparations for the Democratic National Convention are in high gear, and on Saturday security measures surprisingly spilled over into neighborhoods nowhere near the United Center or McCormick Place.
At the Dirksen Federal Building in the Loop, security gates popped up overnight to prevent anyone from vandalizing the courthouse, while people living along the Magnificent Mile and Gold Coast discovered unexpected more security gates and road closures miles away from the DNC sites.
ADVERTISEMENT“They put this up like 5:30 in the morning. So they kind of did it under the wraps,” Chris McClendon. “I live right over here at the Hancock Building. When I came outside, I had to go check the map to see what’s going on. I thought this was at the United Center.”
Along the Magnificent Mile near Chicago Avenue, roads have been blocked off, police officers are on standby, and large security gates have partially cut off access to sidewalks. The measures popped up overnight, leaving McClendon a little perplexed.
“I had to go back and get my wallet to make sure no one checked me, because I heard they’re going to do checks and stuff like that,” he said.
