I have an idea on how to help the Texas Republicans with their cold weather problems. Ask the Jews if they will use their space laser that the GOP know for a fact exists to start a few controlled fires around texas. The people of texas can then stay warm until the Republicans get off their asses and do something productive for once. Easypeasy.

Residents turned to a community Facebook group to ask whether the small town planned to open warming shelters, while others wondered if firefighters could do their job without water. But when Colorado Citys mayor chimed in, it was to deliver a less-than-comforting message: The local government had no responsibility to help out its citizens, and only the tough would survive.
No one owes you [or] your family anything, Tim Boyd wrote on Tuesday in a now-deleted Facebook post, according to KTXS and KTAB/KRBC. Im sick and tired of people looking for a damn handout!
Boyds tirade, which also demanded that lazy residents find their own ways of procuring water and electricity, immediately drew backlash. Later on Tuesday, Boyd announced his resignation and admitted that he could have used better wording.

(53,959 posts)If it hasn't come out already, it will be shortly, how the Jews are responsible for the Texas disaster by either sabotaging the power grid in order to bring Texas back into the fold of the national grid or, from the MTG types, the Jews used our weather machine to create this disaster because a)Texas didn't go to Biden, b) we are trying to allow "illegals" to sneak into the country while Texas is in chaos, or c) Israel (there are always those looking to blame Israel).
Wait for it.
