I know we can't agree that Xibiden rigged his way into the White House. But good luck with trying to change Texas to blue.

You and who can not agree that Biden rigged his way into the White House?

Is it not true that Biden killed 400,000 people with the coronavirus that trump could not handle? Is it not true that Biden raised up the dead to vote for himself? Is it not true that Biden fed you kraken so you would crack up and be yelling voter fraud? Is it not true that trump is the current President of the United States of America. Is it not true that you are unable to use the brain in your head and see with your eyes?

Of course we can agree, ono, of course we can.

Please, how does one prepare for, or even prevent a wildfire?

Can you stop imbeciles from lighting matches near forests? Can you stop the sun from lighting up dried leaves and twigs? And when the wildfire starts, do you know that is impossible to stop until after many hours? Have you any idea how hard it is to stop a forest fore once it starts?

Your building can never be fire proof but it can be cold proof.

Furthermore, Trump initially refused to send federal aid to california for the wildfires in 2020. He later changed his mind..Governor Newsom pressured for the aid.







Dullard what is now the need for climate change activism if it can't solve environmental crisis , so why wasting our time discussing it, leftist then must be extremely stupid from your analysis

Since the wildfire can't be predicted then we need climate change activism , if not it will happen shocked is that your logic then leftist are daft

Still, you would need to convince me (with references pleade) that the Keystone XL project could have been completed before this current debacle occured if Biden had not stopped it.

Are you aware that this is not the first time Texas has had this problem?
Bro. That guy knows nothing about Keystone XL. What's Keystone XL got to do with power infrastructure failure in Texas. What has Keystone XL got to do with utility bills going through the roof.. how come colder states New York, Illinois, Minnesota e.t.c. are not crying about Keystone XL or suffering power infrastructure failure neither do they have energy bills going through the roof.

I don't believe in playing politics with power outage issue in Texas. It turns politics into a childish affair.

Texas has no reason to prepare their wind turbines for a deep freeze. It's a force majeure scenario.

Dems blaming Texas Reps for not coating their windmills for deep freeze should get ready to be blamed on the next natural disaster.

Or better still who started politicizing it.

Rather than Texas Republicans to focus on the crisis in Texas, they began blaming liberal policies for the issue, Liberals are only pushing back to their stupidity.

One of their nairaland cretins is telling me the green deal is responsible for the outages, how can a deal yet to be implemented be at fault? see the madness Democrats are dealing with

WRONG.

Windmills only account for 23% of all Texan electricity.

If Texas was on the national grid, they would not have had the catastrophic failures that occurred in their normal power plants.

DEAR CONSERVATIVES LIKE ONO, BASILICO AND DAPCITY-

WIND TURBINES ARE NOT TO BLAME FOR THE TEXAS ELECTRICITY OUTTAGES. RENEWABLE ENERGY ONLY COUNTS FOR 23 PERCENT OF ALL POWER IN TEXAS.

WHEN TEXAS HAD AN EARLIER FREEZE AND POWER OUTAGE IN 2011, THEY DID NOT TAKE ADEQUATE MEASURES.


----‐---‐------

Texas power output;[27] moreover, equipment for other energy sources such as natural gas pipelines freezing were more responsible.[26] Viral images of a helicopter de-icing a Texas wind turbine were actually an image from Sweden taken in 2015.[27] Governor Abbott later acknowledged that every source of power, not just renewable ones, had failed.[26] Five times more natural gas than wind power had been lost.[28] When power was cut, it disabled some compressors that push gas through pipelines, knocking out further gas plants due to lack of supply.[29]

During the 2011 Groundhog Day blizzard, Texas had faced similar power outages due to frozen power equipment, after which the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission reported that more winterizing of power infrastructure was necessary.[25] ERCOT said that some generators since then implemented new winter "best practices," but these were on a voluntary basis and mandatory regulation had not been established.[25]

Not entirely correct. One of the effects of federal regulations was to ensure something like this didn't happen, Texas opted out so they won't have to conform. It is squarely their own oversight.

Like couple other people told you before, Texas Republican officials makes it a partisan issue by trying to blame the Democrats for their incompetence. Why did Texas take themselves out of the National grid ?. That's the first question and the most important question to ask. Why are they not prepared for what happened knowing the effects of climate change and things like this happens once in a while. What happened in Texas is nothing if the inept leaders have prepared for it. Most States in the Fruited Plains have worse weather and wintry conditions and they do not lose their lives, electricity, water and other calamities that befalls Texas.

Notice 185- Well if you look at this from a Democrat perspective, President Trump was blamed for literally everything so this is 100% on Joe Biden!

—————-
This status is based on facts and my opinion! I ask my readers to research to form one’s own independent conclusion.

That said...

President Trump would have already been in Texas, but that's the difference between someone who really cares and someone who is going for a photoshoot (after the fact) and a pep talk.

Fun fact... If President Trump handled Texas the way fraudulent Biden is ...the media would be all over it! Fraudulent Biden is responsible for the 47 deaths in Texas. Per the rules given when President Trump was working so hard to get ventilators, face shields, mobile hospitals, and the vaccine.

How many Americans are in Texas and without power, (heat) food and water?

So leftie Einstein’s...why would you let 25000 homeless people in to further strain the resources? Try and think .. you can do it... I guess.

The idiocy I have read in some of the post is just mind blowing!

1) It’s not Biden’s fault. It’s Not Democrats fault. It’s Republicans fault.
2) It’s not weather reporters fault.
3) It was a historical storm in an area not feared for this.
4) When you have your own power grid not connected to other power grids ...this is an issue when things like this happen. The parts of the state (10%) that is not on the main Texas power grid still have power. So the issue is this individual power grid so it would seem.

Okay let’s get back to reality...
Since 2006, Texas has given 19 billion dollars in energy subsidies to wind energy companies. Over the past three years, Texas tripled its dependence on wind energy to 25%.

So actually what Texans found out this week is that wind power and solar power BS that you Democrats have been pushing for years are not reliable or dependable energy resources. Hard Lesson learned.

The first priority is to get these people help. Could we have not evacuate them on large scale? People are freezing. There has to be a immediate solution to help! Especially to avoid senseless deaths in the future.

In any case....

Fraudulent Biden’s first day in office signed an educative order that allows China access to our electric grid which President Trump tried to stop. Don’t you find it strange that the electric grid was so compromised? It is buried in the keystone executive order section c ...at the end.

We will never know how much China paid Hunter and fraudulent Joe under the table for their help. Could have been millions in offshore bank accounts.

And ... Look, Texas is a beast of a state and they will power through this. But, at the end of the day, it’s cheap taxes and energy is what drives Texas, nothing else. Why do you think nearly a quarter of the fortune 500 companies have bases there? You guessed it, cheap taxes and energy and absolutely no one wants more than that.

And...
On that note...

Have you noticed the endless coverage of Cruz going on vacation for a day. However, fraudulent Joe drags his feet and not a word, got it. His Big show of offering help when it's not needed anymore.

Where's has fraudulent Biden been? It was 60 degrees today in Texas! He should have been there from the start. Although I appreciate his minions showing up for photo opportunities and AOC bringing in donations, I want to know where did all of the money, generators, and fema go to. None of this ever came to anyone I know? Texas has over 250 counties, where did everything go?

Anyhow...
A little late there Joe! We know you've been too busy signing executive orders that destroy our country. I know ...let’s let 25000 illegals in to make the humanitarian crisis worse.

Biden approves Texas disaster declaration

https://www.foxnews.com/us/live-updates-texas-storm-2-20-21

President Joe Biden announced Saturday that he had declared a major disaster in Texas and ordered federal assistance to aid in local and state recovery efforts as millions of residents suffer the effect of severe winter storms.

The action makes federal funding available to affected individuals in 77 different counties and includes grants for temporary housing and home repairs, low-cost loans to cover uninsured property losses, and other programs.

President Biden has declared that a major disaster exists in the State of Texas and ordered federal assistance to supplement state and local recovery efforts.

What a shame, I asked a question on Friday and you are now responding by posting something Biden did a day later on Saturday. What had he done by that Friday that I asked the question? If it was Trump that waited this long before acting, you guys and the corrupt media will be crying all over the place about it.
