on
Apparently, Robert "Beto" O'Rourke was a member of a teenage hacking group called Cult of the Dead Cow.
An intrepid Reuters reporter, who was researching a book at the time, tracked down and confirmed this story prior to the 2018 midterms, but agreed to hold it until after Texas voters headed to the polls to vote for their choice for Senate. In that race, O'Rourke lost to incumbent Senator Ted Cruz (R).
