<p>The US Capitol was secured with fencing as President Joe Biden gave his State of Union Address on Thursday (local time) lashing out at his "predecessor" Donald Trump. As Biden gave his last Union Address of US Presidential polls, slated to take part later this year, a sign reading “Police line. Do not cross” was visible on the perimeter, as per a report by Independent. </p> <p>The security measure, which was taken for the fourth time for a State of the Union speech, came in the aftermath of the insurrection at the Capitol on January 6 2021.</p> <p>Far-right Congresswoman, Marjorie Taylor Greene hit out at Biden administration for such a move.
