Beto O’Rourke lied in his first debate about his drunken driving crash

While most of us in the news media were out scouring Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh’s high school yearbooks, some of us noticed Democratic Senate candidate Beto O’Rourke told a big lie during his first debate with Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas.

“I did not try to leave the scene of the accident, though driving drunk, which I did, is a terrible mistake for which there is no excuse or justification or defense, and I will not try to provide one,” the Democratic senatorial candidate said Friday.
