Topless animal rights protester confronts Bernie Sanders at Nevada campaign rally

Topless protesters have disrupted a stump speech by Senator Bernie Sanders in Nevada.

The anti-dairy protesters stormed the stage just as Sanders was beginning to address his supporters at the event on Sunday in Carson City.

First, a fully clothed woman jumped on the stage and grabbed the mic away from the candidate to deliver their demands.

Topless women mounted the stage and poured colored liquids over their bodies from containers marked ‘milk’ to protest the dairy industry

The protesters were upset about a 2018 bill that Sanders voted for which provided emergency financial support for the dairy industry after milk prices fell

The protest caused brief chaos just as Sanders had begun addressing the crowd

‘Bernie, I’m your biggest supporter, and I’m here to ask you to stop pumping up the dairy industry and to stop pumping up animal agriculture,’ she said. 

‘I believe in you…’ she continued, before the mic suddenly went dead and security moved toward her. The campaign’s live video feed of the event suddenly cut out.

Meanwhile, topless women mounted the stage and poured colored liquids over their bodies from containers marked ‘milk.’

Security guards intervened and dragged the topless women off the stage.  

Sanders looked on appearing mystified before resuming his speech, shrugging off the bizarre protest.

‘This is Nevada. There’s always a little excitement — at no extra cost. Except we have a lot of water on the stage,’ he said as he returned to the stage. 

Developing story, more to follow.
