Actress and activist Jane Fonda was arrested again outside the U.S. Capitol building in Washington D.C. for protesting climate change, this time alongside her “Grace and Frankie” co-star Sam Waterson.
The 81-year-old actress is making good on her promise of doing it every week, as she was also nabbed last Friday along with 16 other people on the Capitol steps.
TMZ reports that Fonda was arrested again in the same location. This time, however, she had the support of the “Law & Order” and “The Newsroom” actor.
The outlet shows a video of both Fonda and Waterson being taken away in handcuffs:
The arrest comes after Fonda, a liberal Hollywood celebrity long known for activism and outspokenness, said she soon planned to leave Tinseltown and relocate to the nation’s capital, at least temporarily, inspired by young climate change activists.
“So, I moved here to do an action every Friday called ‘Fire Drill Friday’ because Greta Thunberg says ‘our house is on fire we have to behave appropriately,’” Fonda told reporters upon her release last week. “So, we have a fire drill every Friday and every Friday at 11:00 we will have a different focus on climate.”
When asked by a reporter what compelled her and others to take that extra step to go up onto the steps and be arrested, she said: “Well, because it brings people like you here. It attracts media. We’re trying to raise the visibility of this crisis.”

Added Fonda: “There’s a lot going on in the world, as you very well know, and we want to break through and make sure that climate and the catastrophe that’s looming remains as much front and center as we can make it and there’s gonna be more and more and more of these direct actions and civil disobedience, non-violent disobedience. If necessary, we’re gonna have to be able to bring things to a halt.”
Fonda said she and the other arrested protesters in the Capitol Police Station were simply waiting out their time, plotting their next move.
“Organizing, we were organizing, planning next steps and so forth, it was great!” she stated.
According to the Los Angeles Times, the 81-year-old actress had a goal in mind when she moved: to get arrested.
Fonda told the newspaper she planned to spend about four months in Washington for a series of sit-ins and rallies — after getting an OK from Netflix to take time off from her series “Grace and Frankie,” which she co-stars with Lily Tomlin.

Once again Fonda is trying to convince Americans that she obviously knows what she’s talking about because she believes the obvious, that truth comes from the mouth of a mentally unbalanced bubblegummer who apparently deserves a Nobel prize, sharing her genius with the likes of Albert Einstein and the unaccomplished pathological liar Hussein Obama hoping that he may one day actually earn the honour which we now know never did. These lunatics have taken over the asylum.
Waterson and Fonda – desperately seeking relevance.
Beats getting tied up in a home .
Who is cleaning her pool and mansion ?

In the movie ON GOLDEN POND Hanoi Jane was out acted by some Loons(Birds)who were far better then this traitor turkey
To self …… I’m going to get arrested because I want the planet to change the way I want . Yes I want the temperature to not change more than a degree or two.
Oh screw the sun , cloud cover , volcanoes , ocean currents because as everyone knows they never change .
There in a nut shell is a description of a self absorbed hypocrite Liberal.
She didn’t seem to mind living on a 590,000 acre ranch with the highest cow farts per capita on the planet .
She has found a cause or is it a cult ?
This must come as a shock on the scale of the Easter Bunny being man made up , but humans are not going to take over setting the earths thermostat .
It’s been way warmer without volvos and it wll freeze again .
When Jane was even hotter than today global cooling was the big baddie .
I wish Hollywood would do something for the raped actresses and even the poo population of street dwellers in some of their cities . Just something real and not so blatantly hypocritical . Maybe just give up the private jets and
muti mansions . You know show some real commitment to setting the earths temperature.
Why dump it on all the poor dung burners in Africa .
So Hanoi Jane how much of the Desert did you and Redford mess up while making your putrid movie THE ELECTRIC HORSEMAN?
Sadly, instead of promoting thoughtful scientific & policy debate inside the statehouse we get uninformed Hollywood types being arrested on the capital steps. What’s wrong with this picture?
