watching it in real time. That, to me, would be unconscionable as it increases risk for injury with the workers, but it is possible.

... Circuit is not a barrier.

At least that's my understanding. I've heard nothing about the D.C. circuit issuing it's own stay pending review of the lunatic motion.

And if you don't know what a right-wingnut hack Mr. Shumate is, here's a March 2025 letter of opposition to Mr. Shumate from the Alliance for Justice:

Trump's Kennedy Center appeal is so unhinged he must have written it himself: legal expert

watching the comments, which are a good laugh!

Last I checked over 22,700 people were watching. Conclusion: a good number of people want to see the Kennedy Center without trump's name!

the protesters were chanting, "take it down, take it down."

Someone yelled "take that thing down!"

Thunder and lightning

And if the Claw in the yard gets hit, then I will change my beliefs and become a believer. Will still likely believe that the Supreme Being is somehow a part of Mother Earth, but damn!, I will be at a church on Monday morning if a strike occurs.

and then dragged their feet in the process. It was pretty obvious they were waiting for appeals to take hold and/or other possible delays such as rain. Eventually, they got both.

Over the Kennedy Center when the court turned his appeal down.

I saw a pic on TV and it featured a smiling Congresswoman Joyce Beatty and the rainbow over the Center.

We owe her so much for standing up and speaking out.

They're still putting up more scaffolding! Are they going to run scaffolding all the way around the building?

Until it's done don't trust they intend to do it

Thst hadn't reached thst area yet

I bet no one wants to be the last person to take the last letter off.

I do hope there is a time when "Rump" is visible.

Cuz, y'know, birthday.

There is no legitimate reason to go multiple levels higher than the height of the letters that should have been down by this time.

Looks like monkey bars.

So that we can’t see his name coming down.

Just my theory….

And removal will take longer than installation because holes will need to be patched, primed, and painted to match.

Some shading and weather protection would make sense.

The marquee area where they're taking the "Trump And" from, and reposition the letters for "The".
It going to be far more difficult to replace than put on.
Unless all they used was silicon epoxy putty to make the changes.

Just to be sure the shit (Trump) is off

Around. MSNOW says Politico reported that TSF admin. has asked for a delay to remove the name.

As with other legal cases, it seems there is no way to enforce a ruling or penalize failure to act.

Gotta get some sleep…I hope someone here will post updates.

No rain is forecast for Saturday.
