Friday on MSNBC’s “Hardball,” 2020 Democratic presidential hopeful former Rep. Beto O’Rourke (D-TX) said Latinos throughout America “now feel like they have a target on their back in large part thanks to” President Donald Trump.

O’Rourke said, “When he was making his case to the country, announcing his candidacy for the presidency, he talks about Mexican immigrants as rapist and criminals, repeatedly warned of invasions from Mexico and Central America, called asylum seekers animals, called them killers, called them predators, put their children in cages, deported their parents back to the very countries from which they fled —and you talked about this a little bit in the run-up to this interview—at that rally in May in Florida, when he’s warning of this invasion and he says how do we stop these people, someone yells out shoot them, and the crowd roars their approval, and he smiles. He says this is okay.”

How would Bobby know? From an illegal who mows his lawn (just taking that NJ Dem at his word)?
If, as anti-Covid-vaxxers claim, https://www.poynter.org/fact-checking/2021/robert-f-kennedy-jr-said-the-covid-19-vaccine-is-the-deadliest-vaccine-ever-made-thats-not-true/ , https://gospelnewsnetwork.org/2021/11/23/covid-shots-are-the-deadliest-vaccines-in-medical-history/ , The Vaccine is deadly, where in the US have Pfizer and Moderna hidden the millions of bodies of those who died of "vaccine injury"? Is reality a Big Pharma Shill?

Millions now living should have died. Anti-Covid-Vaxxer ghouls hardest hit.

If Beto really believed this he wouldn't be calling himself Beto. He'd be Vladamir or Shau-Ping O'Reilly.

Didn't Sarah Palin get castigated by the press when she placed targets on congressional districts?

Media does not seem interested in Beto's similar methods.

And I looked it up.  First time the word 'wetback' was used (the word which Beto implied for all Latinos) was first used in 1920 by .... wait for it.... the New York Times, the self-proclaimed newspaper of record.

No punishment, in my opinion, is too great, for the man who can build his greatness upon his country's ruin~  George Washington

I think there is a country song that fits that.  If you break the law then you should feel like you have a target on your back.
AG William Barr: "I'm recused from that matter because one of the law firms that represented Epstein long ago was a firm that I subsequently joined for a period of time."

Alexander Acosta Labor Secretary resigned under pressure concerning his "sweetheart deal" with Jeffrey Epstein.  He was under consideration for AG after Sessions was removed, but was forced to resign instead.
