In a virtual campaign event, actress Jane Fonda warns American citizens living overseas that if former President Donald Trump is re-elected, he will imprison anyone who protests his policies, claiming that he has already imprisoned people who disagree with him.
Speaking at a Democrats Abroad campaign event, Fonda urged young voters to exercise their right to vote to ensure a livable future and a voice in a democracy. She contrasted the approach of the Democratic ticket, which allows for lobbying, protests, and demonstrations, with that of Trump, whom she accused of suppressing dissent.
"The Orange Man will not let that happen. He puts the people who don't agree with him in jail, and he said he's going to make their lives miserable," Fonda asserted before being interrupted by a moderator who introduced the next speaker, Sen. Ed Markey.

Fonda's comments came as part of a larger campaign event organized by Democrats Abroad, the official arm of the Democratic Party for American citizens living overseas. The event featured a range of speakers, including elected officials and Hollywood celebrities, who urged attendees to support the Harris-Walz ticket.
**Other speakers echoed Fonda's concerns about Trump's policies, with former Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi arguing that "our democracy is at stake" in the upcoming election.** Pelosi expressed gratitude for serving as speaker during the January 6, 2021, attack on the U.S. Capitol, emphasizing the importance of electing the right candidates.

Former Attorney General Eric Holder addressed the "chilling" statements and policies put forth by Trump during the 2024 campaign cycle. Holder highlighted Trump's suggestion that supporters vote only once, after which they would no longer need to do so.
Holder's remarks align with his role as a key figure in the Harris campaign, where he led the vetting process of potential running mates. The announcement of Minnesota Governor Tim Walz as the Democratic vice presidential nominee was made last month.
