Houston congresswoman: ‘Weather calamity’ exposes faulty infrastructure

1. 200 YEAR'S…

2. Pretty sure this ol gal is hunter bidens crack plug.

3. Stop lying about rolling blackouts

   we have not had civilization for 100 hours

4. Just more political platitudes and pandering. What a distraction and waste of the people’s business. ALL of Congress collude together against Americans. Two party system is really a one party system owned by so called elites. Regardless of Trump, the GOP is dead. Many republicans are just now waking up to the deceit and lies. Democrat party of Jim Crow, KKK, and fascism was lost decades ago when culture canceling and race baiting became their legal tender. Lincoln party project and republican accountability project are political moles trying to convince Americans they are not part of the same corrupt cabal of politicians. Volunteers are resigning from election positions across the country and millions are changing to unaffiliated and searching for a new party.
   The oligarchs want a faux two party system and are going to do whatever it takes to keep themselves in power to control or destroy us if necessary. Using the media to pit Americans against each other using a cast system of politics, race, and culture keeps them in power. Decades in Congress created this obscene display as sycophant Americans blindly stand by and argue with each other on the street and internet. Go ahead and agree to Gov overreach now and you will be next. There is no hope for our children to change the system unless we dissolve the current mirage of power. Term limits on Congress would fix an array of evils in Gov and have true lasting effects. Almost all Americans agree with term limits and it’s the one thing Congress fears the most. I urge every American to drop the party letter on their name and switch to Unaffiliated and make the call for term limits NOW!

5. It's Texas, if you are poor and non white, no one in gov care!

6. Crap!!!. Do something to bring power to the entire state. Lot of sick elederly and children in the midst of this. No food water and power. The governor and all the mayors should resign. They are not fit for the position. They are elected to protect the people. We are let to die in the freezing weather, they need to answer tor what's going on .

7. Keep in mind "Sheila Jackson Lee" is not a Texan, she moved to Texas from New York. Stating the obvious during an unprecedented cold snap to win votes. As for the "poor infrastructure", Texas is engineered for Texas weather not New York weather….

8. Why the fake zoom background? Where was she really when she did this interview?? Comfortable in some building with electricity while the people in her district suffered as she did nothing again but talk? Jackson Lee does nothing for her constituents but grandstand in front of cameras during trying times like these. She’s a useless fraud and a race pimp. Time for her district to vote her out. .

9. This is just sad. Put politics aside. Gov. Abbott needs to acknowledge the truth and reassure people that they are working on it than go on Fox News and complain about the Green New Deal. Like geez. people are dying in the weather, have no water to drink, can't even practice BASIC HYGIENE, that is infuriating. I hope my fellow Texans can come out strong as they always have. Love from NJ <3

10. They just want money as always.Every time there is an emergency they just talk and get money

11. THERES NO REASON WHY HOUSTON SHOULD BE HAVING POWER OUTAGES DURING THIS TIME. WINTER FREEZE OR NOT,.. poorly planned and designed infrastructure…

12. That lady is a mason she wears that red mason ring.

13. Investing in crypto is the only big chance of making money

14. Yeah nothing wrong with helping descendants of slaves, but what about the natives… when will they ever be restored in their humanity??

15. Thank You congress woman. Please address Houston water supply issue next #ABC

16. Sheila Jackson Lee is part of the problem, not part of the solution. People are freezing to death and she’s talking about racism and reparations? She intentionally had no light on her face to make it look like she had no power. Sad.

17. She is so stupid that she doesn’t even know that she is stupid

18. Make us all ride bikes you Democrats !

19. Texas has converted 25% of electricity to green energy. Now I am for green energy but they have limitations that people don't consider.

20. What is the energy bottleneck? Production, distribution, broken power lines? You would think the power companies could at-least give people 4 hours of electricity a day to let them run their furnaces and keep the pipes from freezing in their homes.

21. And Texans want to leave the Union, LOL

22. "rolling blackouts"…already read that book. A dream come true for Wall Street…Follow the money

23. Reparations are issues when the injuring actions have stopped…

24. Ercot can't restore power until the ground thaws

25. Some terrible management at the state level.

26. Even when I was in the Army I told them DO NOT station me in Texas. I’d rather go overseas. They don’t give af about y’all!

27. the girl scouts of America can go around door to door selling cookies but the United States government cannot send the military door to door to hand out blankets and other provisions during this crisis, Think about it America.

28. Man they just trying to hoe everybody we could have prepared as a city for this but Houston got a bunch of goofies here

29. Students abandoned at Texas State University,
    San Marcos Campus!!!
    No power, no food,
    no response from the San Marcos police!!!

30. That’s corn pop for ya.

31. Wow
    Unbelievable

32. Somehow these people will blame Trump for this

33. This is always how the elite power brokers have run governments. Any state that's been republican controlled for very long should expect the same for their own infrastructure.

34. Fam some people haven’t had water and power in days and can’t eat and shower!! The kids in dorms are literally stuck.

35. Every city has an regulatory board that controls power companies rate increases, The only energy that is not regulated in most states is natural gas, that price is set based on national demand

36. Hi rise bldg s. are in down town area this is also were hospitals are power sub stations and main power plants are located, also police and fire are located in these areas as well. It is my understanding that the Texas utility regulatory board would not grant the power companies a rate hike so they can upgrade there power infrastructure. I also would point out that this is the 1st (yes 1st) severe weather Texas has seen in over 100 years. And I can tell you right now every year moving forward will get much worse

37. Please this is bullshit Black Lives Matter was involved the head of one of their chapters was arrested at the capital. Stop with the white national bs. Antifa is NOT white nationalists. More wealth? Not my family. Affirmative action has been in action since the 70s how much more do you want

38. I'm still having images of that failed coup. They might be frustrated from not attending major sports games like they usually do.
