The live video of removing Trump's name is so good!

I found a live YouTube video that shows a construction crew setting up scaffolding to facilitate the name removal. Apparently there’s a crowd watching and cheering progress. The crew knows their stuff and are a pleasure to watch. Excellent reality television!

No matter their political affiliation, they’re digging the attention..Working clean, safely,, and with a little swagger.

I see some umbrellas -- can't tell if it's raining. Apparently there are storms in the vicinity -- that might explain their leaving. I suspect it won't be done today.

So I think they're done for the day. Also, I don't see any sign of any letters having been removed yet.

Work longer, weather permitting. If the second wave of rain moves through quickly, there may be enough sunlight to work until about 8:30 pm.

They huddled up at the bottom and now they’re leaving, taking along their tools. Apparently it’s beginning to rain. Shows over for the tie being.

Somebody keep watch and let us know if they come back

I understand a judge refused to stop the removal despite a Trump team filing. They’ll probably appeal to a higher court until this get to Uncle Clarence.

These people. I swear.

It’s turned into an ASMR of the front of the Kennedy Center in the rain. You can hear the rain, occasionally people speaking or a murmur of voices, maybe traffic noises in the background. Very relaxing with a hopeful vibe.
