Beto O'JOKE.

 

[DudleySmith]

lol Roberto Francisco wants to give every criminal illegal alien a billion dollars, so his sniveling is merely stupid. I hope Democrats nominate that meth head drag queen. In fact I think if Republicans were smart they would all bum rush the Dem primaries and vote for that deranged idiot.

Poor little beta boy, he doesn't have a snow balls chance in hell of selling his extreme marxism in TX. Of course he doesn't want the guard at the border, he want's as many illegals as possible to cross.

Beto? Lol, where did MSNBC even find him to set up this interview? I figure by now he probably spends his days at the bottom of an interstate offramp shouting at moving cars.

Beto will be Governor of Texas 1 year from now, and PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES 3 years from now

Yeah, you believe that about as much as I do.

One thing is for sure, Abbott needs to go.
February 2021 , the freeze hit Texas, Abbott didn't do a damned thing about it, since.

A sampling of how much Texans cared about Texans.

Colorado City, Mayor Tim Boyd faced extreme backlash after he made comments criticizing citizens for not preparing for the winter storm and stating: "the strong will survive and the weak will perish."

Former governor Rick Perry said, "Texans would be without electricity for longer than three days to keep the federal government out of their business."

Senator Ted Cruz faced heavy scrutiny over his trip to Cancún, Mexico.
Though he initially claimed he was dropping off his wife and daughters, text messages from his wife revealed the hastily planned nature of the trip as an escape from the freezing conditions.
He returned back to Texas admitting that the vacation was a mistake, receiving further criticism for appearing to blame his young daughters for the trip, claiming they begged him to go.

Cruz on February 22 tweeted the news about the hike of electricity rates in Texas, calling "(s)tate and local regulators should act swiftly to prevent this injustice".
This was criticized as hypocrisy because Cruz had been a strong advocate of the Texan power grid deregulation, one of the major cited reasons which led to this mass power outage.

The only politician to actually help..................

Former Representative Beto O'Rourke ran a virtual phone bank to contact over 780,000 seniors across the state.

Yes, cuz if there is one thing Texans hate it is a Governor without an electrician's license and acertified power plant operator. Your shrewd and telling observations are duly appreciated.

A general contractor doesn't need an electrical license or be a certified power plant operator.

To put two plus two for you, Abbott is the states general contractor and he didn't do shit.

Only if your friends in DC manage to Federalize state elections, and even THEN, it's more likely the country would be embroiled in secession or civil war. You people need to get your heads out of your asses and wake up. You may find a way to ram Fed election nonsense down our throats but you can't force us to go along with it. What, do you really think half the country can be subdued to your will? Are you guys really that effed in the head?

An Den? An What? Did he soothe them while they were freezing in their homes? IIRC, the whole damned thing happened because TX was following Federal mandates on clean energy or some such nonsense.

So now you're going to pretend you knew that already. Too late, dumbass. And FYI, in Texas the Lt. Governor actually has more power, and it is the state legislators who fund stuff and state agencies who do the contracting for state business, of which the electric grid isn't one of them, it was 'privatized' at the time, a thing most state Democrat pols voted for. You don't know squat about anything here.

And, there is the Texas Railroad Commission as well; note some of it's duties and functions here:

The Railroad Commission of Texas

www.rrc.state.tx.us

"Railroad Commissioners are elected statewide to six-year, staggered terms. The Chairman is chosen by the Commissioners. One Commissioner position is on the ballot every two years. In the case of a vacancy, the Governor appoints a replacement. Irrespective of the length of the unexpired term of the appointee’s predecessor, the appointee may only hold office until the next general election. At that time, an election will be held to fill the remainder of the unexpired term."

It's commissioners are elected, not appointed by the Governor, yet another fact you were too busy smoking meth and wanking off to educate yourself on.

Texas seems in pretty good shape to me. Abbot is correct keeping the Texas NG on the border. The border that's being overrun with illegals. Beto is an idiot.

Those stupid wind farms froze up, so did the natural gas pipelines.

WTF ,idiot.
Everyone knows that.

Really?
That would be a first, like the vice president has more power than the president?
The Lt. Governor Patrick, is just as stupid as Abbott is.

, and it is the state legislators who fund stuff and state agencies who do the contracting for state business, of which the electric grid isn't one of them, it was 'privatized' at the time

NO SHIT, genius.
It's been that way for decades.
They had the same thing, to a lesser degree happen in 2011, ERCOT did nothing and the politicians didn't make them.

ERCOT, a nonprofit organization subject to oversight by the Public Utility Commission of Texas and the Texas Legislature.

Federal regulators warned ERCOT a decade ago that its power grid was vulnerable following a 2011 blackout caused by similar extreme cold conditions, although it was not required to act on the recommendations.

, a thing most state Democrat pols voted for. You don't know squat about anything here.

So, of course, you blame "others".
The Texas legislature was republican controlled when Bush was Governor in 1999.

On Jan. 20, 1999, Sen. David Sibley unveiled legislation that would fundamentally change how Texans buy electric power. The legislation that came to be known throughout the industry simply as Senate Bill 7 (SB 7) called for the elimination of regulated energy rates and monopoly providers.

At the time, Texas touted plentiful supplies of cheap power for its booming population and to feed heavy industrial users like refineries. But lawmakers said that under Senate Bill 7 competition and market forces would drive already low prices in Texas even lower.

Sen. Sibley could not have been more clear about SB 7's bottom line goal. "We want this bill to bring down the cost of electricity for all get consumers lower rates, then we have been a failure.

Ten years later, there seems to be no end to industry-sponsored reports and studies proclaiming the success of SB 7, many going so far as to declare the restructured market "an example for the world." But ask anyone paying an electric bill and they will tell you that it doesn't feel like a success. Prices are much higher since the start of

So, the fuck what?
Texas has been stupid since they voted in Gorge Bush as governor.
Abbott proves they are getting dumber.

^lol moron thinks long triggered screeds from halfwits with high self-esteem are convincing substitutes for their ignorant dumbassery. Still can't demonstrate even basic knowledge about who does what here, just babbles nonsense trying to make a skateboarding meth head drag queen look better or something, like a typical deviant shit for brains.
