Two political statues have mysteriously popped up in Washington, D.C., drawing crowds of onlookers, just a week before Election Day.

People look at a bronze art installation depicting a pile of feces on former U.S. Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi's desk on the National Mall near the US Capitol in Washington, D.C., on October 24, 2024.

A Tiki torch statue called 'The Donald J. Trump Enduring Flame' at Freedom Plaza in Washington, DC, on Tuesday, October 29, 2024. Groups of tourists and passersby have gathered at the statues to read the artist’s tongue-in-cheek messages and snap photos of the works.“I think they’re very thought-provoking,” Maryland resident Grace Denman said of the statues. “It reminded me how angry I was about January 6 and the deaths in Charlottesville because of the White supremacists, so it brought back some of that energy and anger that has faded over time as we’re coming into a really contentious and possibly dangerous election.”D.
