“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,” a clothed woman who was the first one to jump on the stage and steal Sanders’ microphone said.

As the security moved towards her, topless anti-dairy activists with words ‘die’ and ‘dairy’ written on them joined her on the stage and covered themselves in colored liquid.

“This is Nevada. There’s always a little excitement — at no extra cost. Except we have a lot of water on the stage,” the candidate said as he once again addressed his supporters.

In his speech, the Vermont Senator was also oddly direct in confronting his Democratic rivals for the 2020 presidential nomination.

In his attack on his competitors, Sanders slammed billionaire Mike Bloomberg for “trying to buy the presidency” by using hundreds of millions on ads promoting his campaign.

Bernie also called out Pete Buttigieg and Joe Biden as he said they’re raising money for their campaign from billionaires.
