Schumer also filmed a video while at the Senate building, saying, “I think we’re going to get arrested.”

Another clip from the protest shows a law enforcement official asking Schumer, 37, and other demonstrators if they want to be arrested. 

“Yes,” Schumer nods in response.

Instead of zip-tie handcuffs, the protesters were given different colored bracelets by police. Asked by a reporter for The Hill what her pink bracelets were for, Schumer responded, “for drinking.”

Model Emily Ratajkowksi also was arrested and seen standing alongside Schumer.

A Capitol Police spokeswoman didn’t immediately return ITK’s request for comment.

Schumer also participated in a celebrity-filled anti-Kavanaugh protest earlier on Thursday outside of the Supreme Court.

The comedian has been a vocal opponent of Kavanaugh’s nomination, tweeting last week:

Christine Blasey Ford testified before the Senate Judiciary Committee last month that Kavanaugh assaulted her at a high school party more than 30 decades ago. Kavanaugh has denied the accusation.
