Tonight, Beto O’Rourke and President Donald Trump are taking part in events happening practically across the street from each other. Here’s how to follow them online, including embedded live streams for both events.
Trump’s Event Begins at 7 PM MST (9 PM Eastern)
Trump’s rally is scheduled to begin at 7 p.m. MST (8 p.m. Central/9 p.m. Eastern.) The doors for Trump’s rally opened three hours earlier, at 4 p.m. MST. Trump’s event is taking place at the El Paso County Coliseum on 4100 El Paisano Drive.

The March for Truth Begins Earlier, But Beto Speaks Around the Same Time as Trump’s Rally
The March for Truth event is called “March for Truth: Stop the Wall, Stop the Lies.” A Facebook page for the event is here. This event will begin at 5 p.m. MST (6 p.m. Central/7 p.m. Eastern) and last until 9:30 p.m. MST (10:30 p.m. Central/11:30 p.m. Eastern.) Organizers have said they believe O’Rourke will speak around the same time as Trump’s event begins, which is approximately 9 p.m. Eastern. You can watch O’Rourke’s event in the live stream above. (It appears the event is starting just a little later than 9 p.m. Eastern.)
Attendees met at 801 S. San Marcial St. at 5 p.m. MST, next to Bowie High School. The event will start with a brief rally featuring leaders including Congresswoman Veronica Escobar, starting at 5:30 p.m. MST.

A peaceful march then took place, ending at the Chalio Acosta Park on Shelter Place, just about .2 miles from Trump’s event. Beto O’Rourke spoke when at the rally at the end of the march.
