Abstract: We have obtained 15 and 22 GHz linear polarization VLBA images of a sample of strong and rapidly variable polarized sources at six epochs over one year. We observe rapid changes, in both cores and jet components, in total intensity, both with and without associated changes in polarization. Changes in the cores are probably associated with the births of new components. Images of one quasar (3C 273) and one BL Lacertae object (OJ 287) from two epochs are shown here. No significant Faraday rotation is observed at any epoch in any position in either source.
