The senator went on ask if the O’Rourke campaign had “illegally” funded the caravan, alluding to an undercover video produced by conservative trickster James O’Keefe’s Project Veritas. “Beto campaign staffers confirmed they are giving supplies to immigrants who have crossed the border illegally,” Cruz spokeswoman Catherine Frazier said in an email. In fact, it’s not clear if those immigrants crossed the border illegally. The O’Rourke campaign said it did nothing wrong, although the video’s release appeared to catch them off guard. In the Project Veritas video, O’Rourke campaign staffers seem to think there might be something wrong with supplying donations, though it’s hard to tell how much of their concern was actually prompted by the Project Veritas videographer herself.
