Beto O'Rourke's Profane Tirade: ‘’F*** the Rules,'’ Calls GOP ''Fascists''
2025-08-12
Demonstrating that he has internalized all the bright ideas of the Democrats to show that they are more “persons of the people” than any stodgy old Republican — by cussing and calling names.
[TOWNHALL] In yet another unhinged outburst that highlights the radical state of the modern Democratic Party, failed Senate and presidential candidate Beto O'Rourke;

...Kennedyeque businessman, musician, skateboard artiste, and politician who represented Texas' 16th congressional district in the United States House of Representatives from 2013 to 2019. Beto is a Latino nickname for people whose names end in "erto," like "Roberto" or "Alberto." He is seeking the Dem nomination for President in 2020 because he has nice hair and lots of teeth. He was born into a local political family in El Paso, Texas and is a graduate of a prep school and Columbia University, which is not in Texas. In 2005, he was elected to the El Paso City Council. He was elected to Congress in 2012 after defeating eight-term incumbent Silvestre Reyes in the Democratic primary. He declined to seek re-election in 2018, instead running for the Senate against Republican Ted Cruz, running a campaign that drew national attention because of his skateboarding skills. A few months after he lost, he announced his campaign for President...

s" and openly calling on Democrat-led states to gerrymander their districts, regardless of the law.

''F*** the rules, we are going to win whatever it takes,'' O'Rourke shouted.
The Dem battlecry...
The explicit rant has drawn sharp criticism and renewed concerns over the extreme rhetoric and tactics being embraced by prominent figures on the Left.

O'Rourke's rant comes after a Texas judge blocked him from funding Texas Democrats
...every time you hear the phrase white people, white supremacy, white anything but paint, you're listening to a Democrat. Ask him/her/it to reimagine something for you; they do that a lot, though not well. They can hear a dog whistle a mile or two away. They invented the spoils system and Tammany Hall, and inspired the addition of the word (Thomas) Nasty to the English language. They want to stop continental drift and repeal the law of unintended side effects...
who fled the state in an attempt to stop the GOP redistricting legislation.

Tarrant County Judge Megan Fahey issued a restraining order Friday against O'Rourke and his group, Powered by People, over alleged illegal fundraising to support Texas Democrats who fled the state.

"Defendants have and will continue to engage in unlawful fundraising practices and utilization of political funds in a manner that either directly violates or causes Texas Democratic Legislators to violate [the law]," Fahey wrote in her ruling. "Consumer have and continue to suffer irreparable harm through these unlawful acts because they are making political contributions that are being used to fund personal expenses and violate state law."

So a National Democrat Party pushing Socialism calls US Constitutional followers "Fascists".

Then makes it clear, he & the Democrats intend to F**k (violate) the rule of Law?

Thus placing their political agenda over the Constitutional civil rights of 100's of Millions of US Citizens?
