Projects on large public buildings seem to be the newest way to show resistance in the Era of Trump given the events of this week.

Just a few days after making waves by trolling President Trump with a projection on Trump's D.C. hotel that said "Pay Trump Bribes Here," D.C. artist Robin Bell took aim at Attorney General Jeff Sessions with some similar projections on Thursday night.

Projected on to the FBI's D.C. headquarters and the Department of Justice, the projections included one that read "#SessionsMustGo" and another that cited an infamous Sessions quote about the KKK and marijuana (which Sessions later claimed was a joke), both accompanied by an image of Sessions in a KKK robe.

Sessions wasn't the only target, though. Other images included members of Trump's cabinet (like "Mad Dog" Mattis and Linda McMahon), Trump himself, and calls for impeachment.

Besides these two examples of projection protests, Bell has also previously targeted Secretary of State Rex Tillerson.

So keep your eyes wide open as the resistance takes its fight to the sides of buildings in D.C.
