As Barack Obama waxes eloquent about the supposed negative impact of walls on humanity, crews have completed the wall surrounding his Washington, DC home.

Grabien reports:

Sitting alongside German Chancellor Angela Merkel, former President Obama lectured the current administration about its immigration policy Thursday.

While not mentioning President Trump by name, Obama made clear to whom he was leveling his criticism.

“In this new world that we live in we can’t isolate ourselves,” Obama said. “We can’t hide behind a wall.”

But that’s exactly what Obama is doing in his Washington, DC and Chicago homes.

Crews have completed the brick and metal wall surrounding his home in the tony Kalorama neighborhood in DC.

They began in January:

A wall is good enough for Obama's new digs, but not America? pic.twitter.com/eoGtLETpVm — Kyle Olson (@kyleolson4) January 18, 2017

Here's an update since you don't do much research but Obama who wouldn't build walls to protect America has it for his DC home…wake up!! pic.twitter.com/3PGTvBNXRM — Deplorable Me (@ROWMANEMPIRE) March 20, 2017

Obama’s DC home isn’t the only one protected by walls.

The former president’s Chicago neighbors are begging Chicago leaders to take down the barriers that have been blocking their street, even though he is no longer in office.

DNA Info reported in February:

Leaders at KAM Isaiah Israel, the synagogue across the street from Barack Obama’s Chicago home, say the heavily secured block in Kenwood should be reopened to the public.

Interim Executive Director Debra Hammond said Monday the synagogue at 1100 E. Hyde Park Blvd. wants the gates and barricades that block Greenwood Avenue at Hyde Park Boulevard removed to send a message of openness and inclusivity.

“If we could have it the way we wanted it, it would be open at Hyde Park Boulevard,” Hammond told DNAinfo. “We want to be more of a place of sanctuary.”

Photos show the neighborhood is still very much fortified, despite Obama’s public opposition to walls:

Perhaps Obama forgot to tell the Germans, “Walls for me, but not for thee.”
