BETO O’ROURKE FLAGGED FOR CAMPAIGN FINANCE VIOLATIONS
Daily Caller ^ | 10/7/2018 | Molly Prince

Posted on 10/07/2018 9:24:58 PM PDT by bitt

Democratic Texas Rep. Beto O’Rourke’s senate campaign was flagged by the Federal Election Commission (FEC) on Sunday for accepting “excessive” and “impermissible” donations.

The FEC notified O’Rourke that a preliminary review of his campaign’s July quarterly report showed contributions from one or more individuals with addresses outside of the United States. Donations were also made that “exceed the limit” determined by the federal government. O’Rourke has 45 days to respond.

As if he is actually going to bother.

Violation: “You have reported donations from out-of-country. Explain yourself.”

“Ooopsie. I lost. I am a democrat. I should have erased those lines. “

Isn’t this a résumé enhancer for a Democrat?

O’Rourke notably avoided committing to any debates against Cruz for weeks during the summer, and even bowed out of the first tentatively scheduled debate saying he was unhappy that he didn’t get a big enough say in the terms.

Beto is a cowardly perp and is going down hard.

Oh, so he can respond after the election. Slap on the wrist...no punishment, as is typical of the toothless FEC.

From his equally weird grandmother, who made him into a Magic Mexican because he was beat up in school for being an Irish gringo....or so the legend goes.

Trying to appeal to Hispanic voters. His real name is Robert O'Rourke...a 4th generation Irish-American. "Beto" is a short nickname in Latin countries for Roberto.

A Democrat could rape a five-year-old at a campaign event, and their scumbag constituents, would not care.

That's a Mexican nickname for people named Robert/Roberto, used chiefly by charlatan politicians in states that have a significant Latino electorate and who shamelessly pander to said Latinos during elections on the assumption that they are so stupid that they don't recognize that they are being pandered to by a privileged, arrogant, Irish-American rich boy politician.

Add it to the list with the drunk driving thing and his big speech against 2A and guns. There's no way it will even be close on Election Day. It's impossible that there's real polling behind RealClearPolitics saying this is a "toss-up."

This is not shocking. He is yet another untrustworthy demo_rat who cheats and breaks the law. Remember, folks. Leftists make laws to control you and I. They then exempt themselves from those same laws. Obamacare is a perfect example of this fact. Unions and certain leftist organizations were exempted from the law.

That should put Ted up an extra few points - even in the fake polls.

Well...correct me if I’m wrong....but isn’t ‘Beto’ a white-Mexican name and NOT a magic-Mexican name? I have to ask this because I’m from Alabama and I’ve never heard the expression magic-Mexican. The minute we hear ‘magic’...we tend to think of Harry Potter or black magic.

Hope he wins. This way the DoJ (hahahahaha) can prosecute him , put him in prison and Governor Abbott selects Cruz to replace him.
