Thats a piss poor retort.Yeah, 70'000 Covid dead.Joe's doing a great job. Much better than the blob.That's funny.Not only would it have happened under Trump's watch (Biden hasn't been in the WH long enough to have done anything about it), it probably would have been worse. Just look at Trump's appalling record with regard to COVID.Would never have happened under Trump's watch.
Joe was either sleeping, go karting, or celebrating unmasked since Jan 20th.
He's out of his depth.
Hope you have the stamina to defend him for 4 years.
Texas in blackouts.
Big gaping hole in Mexican border.
China given green light to continue with concentration camps.
Americans still waiting for bread crumbs Covid cheque.
Women's sports destroyed.
Anti White ethos returned to schools.
LOL...
Fake news.
Joe's doing a great job. Much better than your blob.
You offered a piss poor premise.Thats a piss poor retort.
No, but Texans should.Solar panel are failing? Have you ask for a refund?Solar panels are also failing. Liberals destroy everything they touch and know Biden wants us completely off fossil fuels in a few years. This will become the norm.Wind Turbines are NOT the issue in Texas. That's a red herring designed to deflect from the failure to properly prepare. The GOP failure to prepareRegardless of why red state texans added wind turbines to their power grid, the people that ordered the units, bought a product that was substandard to the needs of the intended application. Either through ignorance and an unwillingness to learn the necessary facts, arrogance in their own limited knowledge, or greed to keep profits up.
What ever the cause, the blame falls solely on the individuals or groups making the final decisions on the design specifications that led to the failures.
Texas isn't the only state that got cold. Poor planning has caused lots of problems in Texas. Our current problem and flooding are just two of those problems.Bullshit. Green energy has nothing to do with the debacle in TexasGreen energy failed. Just like biden is doing, and now there is no one to blame. But Democrats, you are totally in control.

No it isn't.The whole damned country is in this kind of shape for God's sakes.This is the third time this has happened.
It comes down to deregulation. The people of Texas want no regulations so this is what they get.
Their electricity is privatized. There are no regulations or any consequences for not upgrading and winterizing. There are suggestions. That's it.
So because it's all privatized profit is put first. Not human life. Thus people are dying in Texas because profit for a private company is more important.
That last time it happened the federal government did an assessment, gave the state a report of what is wrong and how to fix it. The state and the private companies did nothing.
This is going to keep happening because money is more important than human life in Texas.
The people of Texas aren't willing to pay what it takes to make sure this doesn't happen again. The private companies aren't willing to pay what it takes to make sure this doesn't happen again.
Yet where did the Texans run quickly run to first?
You guessed it, the federal government. Biden is sending help. I thought the scariest words in the English language were "I'm from the federal government and here to help." Whatever happened to that conservative "pull yourself up by your bootstraps" and " take personal responsibility?"
Texas Was Warned a Decade Ago Its Grid Was Unready for Cold
(Bloomberg) -- Federal regulators warned Texas that its power plants couldn’t be counted on to reliably churn out electricity in bitterly cold conditions a decade ago, when the last deep freeze plunged 4 million people into the dark.They recommended that utilities use more insulation, heat pipes...finance.yahoo.com

That`s your second post of the morning where you said absolutely nothing.I meant our electric grid. We don't have many liberals where I live. We have no problems of any kind.Just where liberals live are shit holes. God if I would have listened to liberals I would have a boss my entire life. What a waste of a life.'Not where I am at colder and still have electric. Huh I wonder how that happened.The whole damned country is in this kind of shape for God's sakes.This is the third time this has happened.

If Obama shut that lignite mine down why is it still operating. Has anyone told them that they are shut down? The miners are always the last to know these things.This is the third time this has happened.

In most cases, the sun melts the snow off solar panels much quicker than many think - quicker than the ground and even your roof. Panels retain warmth and are often installed at an angle, so when the storm blows over even heavy snow slides rights off. Skeptical?

Wow
Wow you seem a lot more worried about it than the actual people who live in Texas. Maybe you should just mind your own business and worry about taking care of yourself....oh wait, you are a liberal bufoon, forgot.This is the third time this has happened.

Dolet Hills is a huge mining complex ... The part I was talking about them shutting down, was the one next to the Cleco Power Plant.
There are parts closer to Pelican and Converse that still operate, but they don't generate power.

I have no sympathy for them electing republicans.
I agree. They were warned. They invited this mess.
Funny just the other week Texas was going to leave the union.
Now they are begging for handouts from the federal government they say they hate so much.

Posted by a warm person I`m sure. How much do we piss away on military crap that will never be used? Do we need 19 aircraft carriers when Russia has only 1 and China has 2?It would be utterly stupid to invest billions into accounting for these rare weather instances. The cost would never equal or surpass the reward. Could they do it? Sure, should they? NO.
