Beto O'Rourke

I have been reporting and testifying on the projected SSN valley since March of 1995.

In terms of mitigating the shortfall, there are various options that can be pursued.

The FFG [guided missile frigate] is one-third of the firepower, but two-thirds of the cost.

We have to clearly see at this point that we do not have the means to pursue this campaign successfully. My service will not be as a candidate nor as a nominee of this party for the presidency.

If we instead set the precedent that this President is above the law, we will lose it forever, for every generation that follows.

I want them to be more afraid of their constituents, who will force this issue for their next reelection, for their careers and I hope for their conscience, forcing them to do the right thing while we can still do the right thing.

I think as Americans learn more of the facts come to grips with the truth. The fact that this President has committed crimes and sought to cover them up, sought to obstruct justice, and now commits them out in the open.

This is the true constitutional test of our time. And I want to make sure that we come through with flying colors.

He's been a master at that in the past. We've got to be disciplined and focused on what he has done and making sure that there are consequences.

I stand by my statement on that, but I don't even want to give the appearance.

I think they would come up with another reason to continue to obstruct justice and defy a co-equal branch of government.

Hell, yes, we're going to take your AR-15.

Hell, yes, we're going to take your AR-15, your AK-47. We're not going to allow it to be used against our fellow Americans anymore.

Yes, we are taking your AR-15, your AK-47.

This is a death threat, Representative. Clearly you shouldn't own an AR-15, and neither should anyone else.

We're not going to allow it to be used against our fellow Americans anymore.

We need to make sure that we free ourselves from a dependence on fossil fuels and embrace renewable wind and solar energy technology.

We need to lead on this issue because we know it is right. Legalize America, begin with those more than 1 million DREAMers, make them U.S. citizens right now in this, their true home country.

We're going to take your AR-15, your AK-47. We're not going to allow it to be used against our fellow Americans anymore.

Day one, re-enter the Paris climate agreement.

He made us less safe.

This country needs direction when it comes to meeting the single greatest threat that we've ever faced, so we all need this. And I'm just grateful to be apart of it.

This setting right now, the very first event of our campaign for president is an example of not only the way that I wish to campaign across this country for every single American, and I could care less your party persuasion, your religion…

Oh, this is inspiring. This is the border standing up for itself. This is El Paso telling our story. No one can tell it better than we can. Strong, secured community, that's who we are.

Okay. We'd love to have that within a week.
