New photo: Amy Klobuchar tried to spend the evening mingling with millionaires at a fundraiser.

Flooding in through a service entrance, Line 3 resistors shut it down.
Humiliated, Amy Klobuchar ended her speech and fled the stage.
As long as Amy Klobuchar is complicit in Line 3 destroying her own constituents and her own state, she deserves for her events to be shut down. Full stop.

Here’s the beautiful & dramatic video capturing the confrontation:

BREAKING: @SenAmyKlobuchar was just confronted at a fundraising event by a group of water protectors who SHUT DOWN her speech.

When faced with Indigenous youth questioning her inaction on Line 3, she rolled her eyes, tried to interrupt, and eventually fled the stage. #StopLine3
@SenAmyKlobuchar This isn't the first time that @amyklobuchar has been confronted on her Line 3 stance. This has happened several times already.

What's remarkable is that every single time, her response is to run away.

Senator, do you really think this is a good look?

Amy must hate this. It's like she can't have a single expensive private event for big-money donors without it being rudely interrupted by the people her policies are killing.

The worst part is, she could end this anytime. She could come out and say #StopLine3, but she won't.

BREAKING: Activists just SHUT DOWN Senator Tina Smith’s keynote speech, demanding she call on Biden to #StopLine3.

Two minutes after taking the podium, Smith *fled* to her car to avoid questions about the Line 3 pipeline.

Nice “climate leadership” @SenTinaSmith @TinaSmithMN.
For years, water protectors have met with @TinaSmithMN and called on her to take action against Line 3. Yet she has refused to take a side.

"Not taking a side" on Line 3 enables @Enbridge to poison Indigenous land and water and wreck our climate.
At a press conference last week, Smith said "Minnesotans understand that taking strong action on climate is a moral imperative."

So why hasn't she taken action to #StopLine3?

Instead, she’s refusing to engage with water protectors and running away. Shameful.

After nearly 8 years of fierce resistance, we learned that Line 3 will become operational this weekend.

This fight is not over, only shifted, so it's a good time for a refresher: what is Line 3, why should it be stopped, and how can you help? A thread 🧵 (1/9)

#StopLine3 Image: march to stop Line 3
Line 3 is a pipeline that crosses 200+ bodies of water and treaty land in northern Minnesota. It's set to carry over half a million barrels of tar sands oil per day from Alberta, Canada through ND, MN, and WI, before being shipped across the country. (2/9)
.@Enbridge claims Line 3 is a "replacement" for another pipeline that has carried oil through MN for decades, but its capacity is nearly 2x that of the old. It also has a brand new route that is rich with pristine wildlife and water bodies including the Mississippi River. (3/9)

Evening thoughts:

The White House’s @PressSec - ie @jrpsaki - just said Biden can’t #StopLine3 because it’s “under active litigation.”

Isn’t that a reason he SHOULD halt construction?
To @PressSec @jrpsaki:

If you are going to use legalese to justify ecocide, please don't insult our intelligence with such poorly reasoned arguments.
If Biden doesn't want to #StopLine3 just be honest and let us know he prefers Big Oil profits over our future. Ok?
