Texas gets power outages a few days in the winter. California gets power outages at all times throughout the year.
As Texans sit and freeze they need to think about what Abbott has done for them, if he's accomplished anything its been for himself.
Texas. The new California.ðŸ‘ÂÂ
Texans never learn the lowest form of white man
Fire up the wind turbines and solar panels asap!
The Bible warns about end of days climate chaos. It’s all in there. Normal is not coming back, but Jesus is! Amen!
It’s not as bad as last year
For the people blaming green energy for the outages:
Wind power accounts for 23% of Texas power, and it only accounted for 13% of last February’s power outages. Wind turbines in the north work perfectly in the winter because they are weatherized, but Texas didn’t do that. Five times as much power lost was from natural gas, as the gas lines froze due toâ€â€Âyou guessed itâ€â€Ânot being weatherized. Many coal plants and one of four nuclear plants were also down during that time.
Sure hope Ted Cruz doesn't take a warm vacation to Cancun white Texans are freezing their asses off again.
God's CURSE ! Texans must repent.

Best Phrase and Truth Statement:"PEOPLE HAVE BEEN DECEIVED."
This weather reminds us of last year's Freezing Texans when Cruz let them suffer as he used their tax payer money to fly to Sunny Mexico.
Again?
Cancun Cruz heading to Mexico
Do nothing Republicans at it again.
Many who just moved there are saying behind the scenes – why did we move to Texas!?
how much are the power co inflating there kilowatt charge Ripoff
After last year's calamity you'd think they would have been prepared by now but nope. This is just a regular snowy weather, nothing extreme to point fingers at, if anything it's leadership fault if they aren't prepared by now.
0:56 Sand? I didn't know they put sand on the roadways to melt the ice. Does she mean salt?
Texans:
You can have functioning infrastructure, or you can have freee-dumb
Choose wisely
Where's salt and sand!? Texas has the money to do it. They didn't. She is wrong . They didn't respond to the issues. Abbott does not care.
That's Bullshit. They decided Not to winterize because it would not happen again. They didn't.
The only thing republicans can run is their mouths.
Governor Abbott is a fucking idiot
Keep in mind that this is the same system that gave birth to Enron.
AGAIN…. They Have the same Dicks running their state and they let THEM.. . They don't gave ANY electricity again this year and we're supposed to feel bad for THEM…
Your the ANT and the Grass hopper story from Aesopes Fables… The rest of the country worked on these PROBLEMS in our STATES…and what did YOU DO?…. So have you got ENOUGH Hay for your cattle or are we going to have to supply that for you again TOO…..
Darn cold, brrrr.
Yeah likely story
Texas still a failed republican state. Thank your clown leader Abbott.
