Susan Sarandon was one of the roughly 575 people arrested during a Capitol Hill protest of President Trump's immigration policies and family separations at the southern border on Thursday. The group, including Rep. Pramila Jayapal, a Democrat from Washington state, were charged with unlawfully demonstrating.
Sarandon tweeted from the rally, where she and other women carried banners that said, "We demand ... end all detention camps." They also declared, "We care," in response to the jacket first lady Melania Trump wore last week.
The protest took place in the atrium of the Hart Senate Office Building. According to U.S. Capitol Police, the individuals were processed on the scene and released. The demonstrators were there to protest the Trump administration's "zero-tolerance" policy that treats all illegal border crossings as criminal offenses. Mr. Trump signed an executive order last week ending family separations, but up some 2,000 children remained separated. A federal judge has ordered that families separated at the border be reunited within 30 days.
Sarandon tweeted, "Arrested. Stay strong. Keep fighting. #WomenDisobey,"

Susie is still mad at her conservative mommy and that is why she “protests” and gets “arrested”. Her mother does not care a flying fig so it is all for naught.

Hard to believe Ashley Judd wasn’t mentioned in the article. Maybe Ashley missed this fine opportunity to express her views.

What's hilarious is that they
despise her at Democratic Underground.

Her greatest role.

Because 0bama is pseudo-black African American and therefore anything said against him would be considered racist, which it was according to the MSMLSD and libs.

I have to be honest with this observation..As much as I adore everything FLOTUS wear and is known as a classy fashion aficionado I didn't understand the jacket until trump explained it on his twitter..I personally think she made a huge mistake by wearing that apparel right after visiting the holding building. When I saw the picture I immediately thought OH BOY what are you thinking!! I knew right away the left socialist were going to make it a rally cry to crucify her and trump!! Bad idea! 🙁 My 2cents worth!...don't fuel the communists!

Has she got a movie coming out and want some free publicity or does she hibernate for seven years like an insect then wake up and infest the countryside for a year or so?

How many arrests of this nature must one incur to be considered a ‘repeat offender’?

They look limp to me. In fairness, she is 71 years old.

She’s a great looking woman. I understand the political animus, but I’m an old geezer and she is fine.
