It’s been a heavy few days for Cenk Uygur, host and founder of The Young Turks and livestreamer of airport drama. Today, the man attended the sit-in portion of Democracy Spring, a large-scale demonstration against corruption and money in politics. Over the last week, participants marched from Philadelphia to D.C. Today, 3000 of them vowed that they weren’t afraid to get arrested and sat around the capitol in protest.

Uygur live tweeted much of the event. Below, you’ll find some of the highlights along with parts of the livestream from The Young Turks.

Police just told us that they are running out of space. Most people ever arrested at the Capitol! #DemocracySpring — Cenk Uygur (@cenkuygur) April 11, 2016

(His claims have been backed up by others present.)

Police just told us that they appreciate us being so peaceful. Several pro-police chants throughout. They are also 99%. #DemocracySpring — Cenk Uygur (@cenkuygur) April 11, 2016

There was a “Where is CNN?” chant. Largest arrest at the Capitol and they don’t even show up. Do they cover news? #DemocracySpring — Cenk Uygur (@cenkuygur) April 11, 2016

He retweeted this video of himself chanting:

As of this writing, he is still there documenting the event. This post will be updated if he is arrested.

UPDATE — 4:57 p.m. EST:

We have received this comment from Uygur:

I’m risking arrest today at our nation’s capital because our representatives don’t represent us anymore. We have asked them to take action countless times to get money out of politics. We want something very simple – restore free and fair elections. Because of their inaction we take action today. It is obvious that Congress is awash in corruption. Today we begin civil disobedience against that corruption.
