Very on brand for republicans to blame power outages in a state that they run entirely on the Green New Deal proposed by democrats that hasn’t even been voted on yet let alone taken effect.

[Iliyah]

1. Yes but republicans will be believe it because . ..

it's those EVIL Liberals.

[MagickMuffin]

2. But our state legislators decided to let a non-profit run our power grid

Whose board of directors pay themselves yearly a sum of $6,416,592.

The CEO Bill Magness makes over $800,000 and who takes no responsibility for his role in this clusterfook.

I think we know where the blame lies.

3. Blame George Soros

He pointed the Jewish space laser at Texas, put it in reverse, and floored it.

4. Maybe blame gay marriage too n/t

[IronLionZion]

5. Liberals are so sneaky like that

deliberately sabotaging the great state of Texas by putting wind turbines all over the place. The wind from the turbines must have frozen the natural gas pipelines and compressors. That's totally a thing that hippies do.

But hey, they saved a bunch of money by not implementing winterizing measures like neighboring states. Texas elected officials are always looking out for the tax payers.

6. That's it Space Aliens are to blame.

Are trumpers ever gonna learn? I wish a gun nut would get pissed at Dump.

[NoMoreRepugs]

8. Democratic Presidents do control the weather don't they???

[VA_Jill]

9. Indeed, Ms. Hill

Indeed.

10. Just watching Abbot press conference

I was just watching Abbot’s press conference until they lost power and it went dark .He said that they were starting to get some more power on line except the renewable sources. He also said that there are gas producers that have been piping the gas out of state instead of putting it on the Texas grid and ordered all production to remain in the state .He was rambling and nervous as hell.

[Mr.Bill]

11. So much for the free market. n/t

[sarge43]

12. "He was rambling and nervous as hell."

Well, that's what happens when fact based reality shows up and kicks in the door.

[LymphocyteLover]

13. his news conference actually lost power and went dark? OMG!

[Aerator]

15. I was watching it on the weather channel and the feed went dark so they cut away

[paleotn]

14. Keep all TX produced nat gas in state?

First, I don't think he has the power to do that. Secondly, it's damn socialist, don't ya think?

[Aerator]

16. Probably a temporary thing

[FailureToCommunicate]

18. Texas gas companies have contracts to sell to Mexico. They shut those down pretty quickly.

Alas for Mexicans, who all now also have rolling blackouts. The kind that don't seem to roll...

[summer_in_TX]

19. Most of the blackouts in Texas aren't rolling at all.

I have friends and a sister and brother-in-law that have mostly had no electricity since Monday morning about 2 a.m.

I want to know what power companies and grid operators knew and when they knew it.

[FailureToCommunicate]

22. Correct. The blackouts aren't "rolling". Only thing rolling in Texas are the eyes of Texans.

And Abbott joins Tucker in blaming the Green New Deal liberals, who somehow snuck into Texas over the last few years and forced solar and wind power on everybody.

And boy, if there is one thing that doesn't work during a winter storm, it's wind.

[Skittles]

23. thank you

my power would be off 8 or 9 hours and then come on for one hour.......wtf kind of "roll" is that?

[Jetheels]

17. Power outage storms are caused by gay marriage. Duh.

[czarjak]

20. Stupid Party policies speak for themselves. Every time.

[Dorian Gray]

21. At this point

I'm starting to think that the people who keep voting them in are dim.

[Skittles]

24. dumber than a bag of hammers

hopefully this will wake some of them up but the cult mentality runs deep in Texas

[patphil]

27. My father used to say, "Dumber than a keg of nails".

But, I'd rather be a hammer than a nail.
