Jane Fonda was arrested in Washington D.C., earlier today for protesting climate change, Entertainment Tonight reports. The arrest came after the legendary Hollywood actor and activist set off on her “Fire Drill Fridays” civil disobedience campaign, calling for action on climate change. A press release sent out today stated:
“Inspired by the growing movement of young climate strikers, Fonda decided to move to the nation’s capital for four months to take up their baton. She will be joined at every ‘Fire Drill Friday’ through at least mid-January by celebrities, scientists, economists and people from impacted communities who will speak and some of whom will invite arrest.” “Today, the United States Capitol Police arrested 16 individuals for unlawfully demonstrating on the East Front of the U.S. Capitol.
Her 1970 arrest occurred while she was on a speaking tour for an anti-Vietnam War campaign. When she flew from Canada into Cleveland, Ohio, airport security allegedly searched her luggage and found multiple bags of vitamins they assumed were drugs. Fonda was then arrested and charged with drug smuggling until the vitamins were tested. After which, she was released and the charges were dropped.
Mike Valerio, a local White House reporter with CBS station WUSA, was on site and tweeted that Fonda will “be here *every* Friday into 2020—demonstrate, get arrested, repeat.” #cf_4 .cf-btn:after { border-radius: 0px } .cf-content-wrap, .cf-form-wrap{ padding:5px; } div#cf_4 { margin-bottom: 20px; } .cf-content-text.cf-col { padding-left: 20px;padding-right:20px; } Happening Now — @Janefonda is HERE on Capitol Hill...She tells us she’ll be here *every* Friday into 2020 — demonstrate, get arrested, repeat.@WUSA9 #ClimateChange #breaking #FireDrillFriday pic.twitter.
Jane Fonda : Where was she years ago calling out Harvey Weinstein sexual attacks that all in Hollywood knew of Where is MeToo Calling her out ? And Meryl Streep did nothing. Such strong activist Women - women Congress AOC
Keep her in jail
She should have been prosecuted for treason and been in jail all this time.
No she was arrested for protesting on federal property which is illegal and she knew it...all it was was a publicity stunt but her, she and the others were asked by police to leave multiple times and then were asked if they wanted to be arrested in which she replied 'yes'
Is that picture old or did she have like a beautiful face transplant, Jesus lol
Did Jane Fonda get out of jail? What? She should spend her 4 month vacation in jail.
Dementia?
Dang trump!if you wanted to meet Jane just call her! Don't lock her!
Once they are done making themselves look like martyrs, they will fly their private jets everywhere....such attention seeking hypocrites....
Lol barley makes us even for sitting on a North Vietnamese artillery piece. Good thing US cops won’t string you up by your arms and beat you until you’re senseless. Enjoy the constitutional rights you so willfully threw away during Vietnam.
Janefonda needs some attention again. How Hollywood of her to get arrested for virtue signalling and buying her way out.
Unbelievable! Way to go Jane
So how can someone who has more plastic in her face than a Honda Pilot be campaigning about climate? Does she realize when she dies her body won’t decompose?
