Beto O’Rourke is back.
Did you miss him?
Me either.
In fact, let’s remember something very important: his name is not “Beto”…his name is Robert Francis O’Rourke, but he calls himself “Beto” to pander to the Hispanic population for votes.

And he didn't waste any time in trying to politicize the tragedy in Texas.
He's a sick individual, but that's not my opinion.
Nope -- he was shouted down and told to leave the facilities after being called a "Sick Son of a Bitch".
Accurate.
Newsweek reports it was the Texas Lt. Governor who called him a "sick son of a bitch":
Texas Lieutenant Governor Dan Patrick called O'Rourke a "sick son of a b****" for heckling Governor Greg Abbott about Tuesday's devastating school shooting. https://t.co/9nQSMozD1d

Others report it was the Sheriff:

Others report it was the Mayor:
“Beto” O’Rourke Disrupts Gov Abbott’s Press Conference to use the death of innocent children for political bandstanding. This is the tone deaf and sick measures of the left. Congrats to the Mayor for calling Beto out for what he is. https://t.co/jSs6VPLuWB

I suppose it doesn't really matter too much who said it, does it?
Hell, we ALL could say it!
Here are more details, from Newsweek:
Texas GOP officials slammed Democratic gubernatorial nominee Beto O'Rourke on Wednesday after O'Rourke heckled Texas Governor Greg Abbott during his update on the Uvalde school shooting.
As Abbott spoke on the need for people to seek mental health treatments in the wake of Tuesday's tragedy, O'Rourke was seen shouting at the governor from the bottom of the stage for "doing nothing" about gun control. Texas Lieutenant Governor Dan Patrick could be seen calling O'Rourke "an embarrassment" as Uvalde Mayor Don McLaughlin repeatedly told the Democrat he was "out of line" for approaching Abbott and shouted at him to "leave this auditorium."
"I can't believe you're a sick son of a b**** who would come to a deal like this to make a political issue," McLaughlin yelled at O'Rourke.
O'Rourke was heard telling Abbott that the shooting was "totally predictable," given the governor's record on guns.
On Tuesday, a gunman stormed a fourth-grade classroom at Robb Elementary School, killing 19 children and two teachers in the deadliest school shooting since Sandy Hook in 2012, in which 27 people, including 20 children, died.
"The moment to stop Uvalde was right after Sandy Hook. After Santa Fe High. After El Paso. Instead, Abbott made it easier to carry guns in public," O'Rourke tweeted after the shooting.
