Texas Congressman: Coffee Shop and Cable Networks

texas congressman: In tiny Burlington, in southeast Iowa, he scaled a counter to be heard during an afternoon stop at a coffee shop, according to CTV. Let us not allow our differences to define us as at this moment, O'Rourke told a whooping crowd, his heels perched at the countertop's edge. The former Texas congressman began his campaign by taking his first ever trip to Iowa, the state that kicks off the presidential primary voting. History calls for us to come together. He took questions about his support of federal legalization of marijuana as well as the possibility of a universal basic income, all while characteristically waving his arms and gesticulating fervently. Earlier in the day, O'Rourke popped into a coffee shop in Keokuk while many cable networks aired live coverage. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
