Why dont you just try to get your power grid to work?
Greg Abbott
@GregAbbott_TX
I just signed a Resolution asserting Texas sovereignty under the 10th Amendment over all powers not granted to the federal government by the US Constitution.
The Resolution officially notifies the President & Congress to cease acts of encroaching upon the powers of states.

None of his frantic political tapdancing will make that fact go away. I can't wait for this evil little creep to be a thing of the past.

(62,530 posts)6. asshole abbott does his best to wallpaper over his failures.
but the glue he uses is failing
he's desperate to try and change the news cycle, but it's not working. Especially now that ercot is fucking us again in this heat wave.
asshole abbott, I think, knows deep down that he's fucked.
