Here's another action suggestion. It needs thousands to participate: Package up some fresh dogshit, and send it via USPS to the White House. Simple, inexpensive, and (I hope) effective.
Republicans hate the arts for the same reason they hate education, science, democracy, modernity: because of their bad choices, they resent everything good.
It probably wouldn't take much to bring down those tarps of the building. There didn't look to be enough cops there to stop a concerted effort.
Sure, those who did it and got caught would be facing the Wrath of Con, but we would see what's actually under there. I believe he fucked things up under there and is just waiting for the courts to for once be very fair to him, then the tarps come down.
Didn't some photographer sneak in and get a shot under the tarps? I suspect that when they removed his name, it left gaping holes in the facing of the building, and they are keeping it up to avoid even MORE bad press.
This is cheering. I love the T-shirt that says "34 felonies", though there are some other classics. Now it's time to lie down at the arch site, I would do it if I were anywhere near D.C. I've photographed every demonstration in Atlanta since the "Woman's March" the signs are always so creative!
Thanks for the post. I saw this event in the socials last night and it warmed my despairing and cynical heart. Over 6000 people,hand in hand, made a human chain around the Kennedy Center!
My only quibble with your post, Dom, is portraying oldsters as “shaking geriatrics”. I saw the videos and yes, there were plenty of badass boomers at the protest - and most of them were pretty strong, robust and pissed off! My generation is determined we won’t leave this world till that SOB is gone!
And I don't want Biden to die before Trump is out of office, because Biden will then get the accolades he will surely receive without the Toddler in Chief ruining it all. Biden looked better than I expected at the 9/11 memorial and when he spoke in Alaska, but maybe I think so because both my parents died of cancer.
How is that banner even permitted? If it was paid for by private funds, what the fuck is it doing on the DOJ building? If it was paid for by public funds, why the fuck are taxpayer dollars paying for this vanity project? (Oh, I get it. Our taxes are also paying for DVT's vanity war).
3- If you have job, go do the job, ignore everyone who hates you, and listen to "Slack Motherfucker" by Superchunk at least once every two weeks. Also, "Merchandise" by Fugazi, and any other anti-boss anthems you can think of. Whatever help. THEY OWE UUE! TAKE THAT FUCKIN' MONEY! WE'RE IN A FIGHT FOR OUR LIVES!
4 - Keep yourself hydrated! You are as strong as a plant! You were sent by the stars, from outer space!
5. Write, draw, paint. Have a creative outlet you can turn to no matter how much the world shits on Uue. Becuase Uue deserve to be exalted! Uue are a Good Person Being!
6. Find time to take a vacation. Where and when you want. Yes, you could sit at home typing up dementedly confusing reports, or you could show up in an airport thousands of miles away, dressed like a chicken. Your life is *yours.*
7. Go out into Nature, whenever Uue have A Chance.
8. Go out dancing and swimming, likewise.
9. Go smear this stupid Universe with your marvelous presence, every single chance Uue get! Uue can create something marvelous from instant to instant! Be sure to get arrested for swimming in a costume in a city fountain at least three or four times a year. And sing labor anthems while you're doing it!
10. Get a 'lectric bike or car and go swerving around in public. Make the sidewalks afraid of you.

Forgive me, but I would be ripping that tarp and scaffolding down and building a fuck barricade with it.
I know its propably illegal, but somebody should dronefilm whats under the tarp, just sayin.

Minor correction: Lynda Carter is spelled with a y.
Apparently we need snipers and drones if anyone invades Arlington

They need to tear down that fucking tarp
I can't understand why it hasn't happened yet. I also hate the banner of Trump's face hanging from the DOJ, we all already know he owns it.
How is that banner even permitted? If it was paid for by private funds, what the fuck is it doing on the DOJ building? If it was paid for by public funds, why the fuck are taxpayer dollars paying for this vanity project? (Oh, I get it. Our taxes are also paying for DVT's vanity war).
No question we taxpayers paid for it, just like the ballroom, reflecting pool mess, etc
Star Trek's "Devil in the Dark" was inspired by a super-hot pepperoni pizza. Prove me wrong.
Lord Dom, you are an angel!!
