Texas Governor Calls For Investigation Into Electrical Grid Operator | NBC Nightly News
After having gone through
3 days of snow AND NO
ELECTRICITY in Austin, Texas last winter, it is
reassuring that the Governor of Texas is more
concerned about finding
private funding for trump's
disastrous border wall than
he is about the Texas Power
Grid that is in dire need of
(Still!!!), stabilization, upgrading, and new policies
for faster repair during emergencies. Especially
after the 10 hour power
outage we had 3 weeks ago. Thanks, Greg!!!! Great
work, worthy of another
one of the " great trump
completely insane and
incompetent trophies" !!!
Don't blame CHINA for this……Dios castiga pero no a palos
Texans are being price gouge and put into Harm's Way and if they were smart they would be talking to lawyers and talking to their insurance companies and take the most advantage of what they can right now maybe think about buying some insulation
Abbot and ERCOT are responsible! We need heads to roll. Houston cannot pay the light bills that are coming! This city will go bankrupt! State Representatives get up and fight for Texas! Sheila Jackson Lee find your backbone!
ceo is in cancun LOL
Greg Abbott (Republican Party) is the Governor of Texas. He assumed office in 2015. His current term ends on January 17, 2023.

You get what you vote for!
Governor "a butt" turn out to be a butt…
Pass the buck TEXAS. We saw this coming and fails.
Texas : Don't Mess with Texas
Mother Nature : Hold my beer
Investigate what? They were told 10 years ago to weatherize the power system.
As a polluting politician, never let a good crisis go by.
Fossil Fuel fracky propagackies at it again. But but but wind turbines functioning just fine in Antartica… Canada?…
a typical gop governor.
Woketard "clean energy" left millions freezing.

Joke
As they say, government is supposed to be like a jalapeno,"Strong enough to make things work, but not to strong to burn your mouth severely"
Gas and coal systems also fell over not just the wind power systems.
Corporates needed to update the infrastructure but saved money for shareholders instead.
The bad news is that Texans voted for Traitor Trump's do nothing strategy that he also used for the Covid response.
The good news is that it is summer in New Zealand.
We have severe weather! Everybody screams global warming! And they haven't lived long enough to even know! I'm 66 years old in the weather no different than it was when I was very young infant! Being Manipulating.. .
Weather and scare politics.. .
