Some nutty anti-dairy industry protesters interrupted a Bernie Sanders rally today in Nevada, and it’s pretty frickin’ hilarious.
Here’s the dairy protester overpowering poor little Bernie:
Bernie supporter pleads to #LetDairyDie in his rally live stream! Gets in a few sentences before audio is cut, & the banners from the rest of the group are visible for quite a while before the video feed is itself cut. Thank you for such a brave action @priyadxe27 @DxEverywhere!! pic.twitter.com/tyVFsFEUoJ

You can see he uses all his socialist might to try to wrest the microphone from her, but he is unable.
Then the real crazies show up – the topless chicks pouring milk on themselves in protest.
More from The Hill:
Sawhney was part of a demonstration by the animal rights network Direct Action Everywhere.
Three other topless women also crashed the stage with the words “let dairy die” written on their chests, before pouring milk cartons full of fake blood on themselves. The women who were topless were arrested for indecent exposure and are held on $2,500 bond each, according to Direct Action.
“If Bernie truly cares about justice, he will stop propping up the dairy industry, which relies on the abuse of female cows,” Sawhney said in a statement shared by Direct Action Everywhere.
“I love Bernie, but we must hold abusive industries accountable, not shield and subsidize them. Animal farming is an industry which gives welfare payments to millionaires,” Sawhney added. “People are fed up. Like the Sanders campaign itself, animal rights is a burgeoning mass movement.”
The animal rights group claims “the dairy industry remains notably absent from” Sanders’ “condemnation” of factory farms.
A spokesperson for the Sanders campaign was not immediately available for comment.
Wow. That’s just nuts. Or rather, the opposite of nuts. Anyway, it’s nothing but embarrassing for Bernie, but that’s exactly what you get when you provide aid and comfort to fringe leftwing progressive freaks, they eventually turn on you.
Well that’s it for the weekend, we hope you had a good one! Go ahead and have an open thread, party people.
