Jane Fonda (and Ted Danson) are arriving at the Capitol to get arrested for the third time in her weekly climate change protests
Jane just asked a group of very buttoned up college kids on a capitol visit if they wanted to join her. Ted Danson added that getting arrested “sharpens the mind”. 
This is “Dr Dog, PhD” who is here to watch jane get arrested, but not get arrested himself, says his owner

Ted Danson introduces himself as Jane Fonda’s “new trainee”
“When I turned 70 I thought ok, time to rest on my laurels” says Ted...”and then I met Jane Fonda”. He calls her his mentor. “Here I am about to get arrested.”
“Come on down and get arrested” says Ted.
“There was a time when there was no plastic,” says Jane, “and we did just fine.” (Plastic was invented before she was born but popularized in the 1960s I believe)
A large number of capitol police have arrived. They say they hope they will not have to make any arrests and that Jane & Co stay off the plaza.
The police are getting into position.

Here comes Ted Danson, Jane Fonda & co to get arrested by capitol police
Ted Danson seems to be having a grand time
They are now walking away from the closed off plaza. The logistics of getting arrested seem kind of complicated in a big crowd.
I can hear the cops in this car giggling
The crowd is now in the intersection of first st SE and east capitol, far from the arrest-y steps. I imagine they will return.
The police have come to join the protestors in the street...
The police have just issued their first warning to everyone to get on the sidewalk or get arrested

Just got back to the office, where I told @MaryBeth I saw Ted Danson get arrested at the Capitol. She asked me, "how do you know it wasn't Vicy the demon in a Ted Danson suit?" and I'm so mad
catch me on Entertainment Tonight later talking about the day’s madness!
