WHITE PRIVILEGE IS REAL!

YOU CAN'T FIX STUPID!

In the wake of the winter storm that nearly failed the power grid in Texas, Gov. Greg Abbott vows to fix the mess that he and his predecessors created. The state of Texas uses its own power grid and it nearly collapsed because of the state's refusal to regulate the energy industry.

The executives of the ECOT were forced out after it was revealed that some didn't even live in the state and they failed to get the ground running when the storm happened.

Energy companies are sending bills to struggling families. Some are getting bills that are nearly over $2,000. The state is demanding the energy companies wave fees. They are demanding the energy companies to find ways to ensure this never happens again.

Abbott also faced heat for appearing on Fox News to trash the Green New Deal, a proposal sponsored by controversial lawmaker, Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY).

They did not winterize their pipes and didn't expect the winter storm to be destructive.

Nearly 20 million Texans lost power and are struggling to get water. 

The Republicans continue to pretend this disaster is not a big deal. 

The far-right agitators were outraged that President Joe Biden did not immediately head down to Texas.

The president will meet with Abbott, Sen. John Cornyn (R-TX), House members and state leaders. Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) opted out to meet the president. He will be in Orlando, Florida at the CPAC 2021 bitching about the election and why Biden didn't come to Texas in the first place. 

Cruz faces backlash for leaving the state for a vacation to Cancun, Mexico. He also will face backlash for going to CPAC instead of staying in the state to help his constituents. 

Cruz even mocked the controversy he's facing.

"I've got to say, Orlando is awesome! It's not as nice as Cancun, but it's nice."

The far-right were outraged that the president didn't go Texas about a few days after the storm passed. 

This was their attempt at trying to paint the president as a doddering old fool. Biden did not want to waste time and resources needed for residents who are in desperate need.

Ted Cruz decides to leave his constituents again for the warm luxury of Florida. He goes to CPAC.

Anyway, the president and First Lady, Dr. Jill Bide will survey storm and power grid damage. They will visit an emergency operation center and food bank. They will stop in Houston and head to the NRG Stadium to see how the rollout of the coronavirus vaccines.

During a televised meeting with the governors, the president said to Abbott about the Republicans refusal to work with him and the extremism within it ranks.

"Governor Abbott, I don't want to rduni your reputation. But I look forward to coming down to Houston to be with you. And I want you and the residents to know that we're here to provide the federal assistance you need to support your state."

Biden won't come to Texas and throw paper towels and tell people in emergency shelters to "have a good time." Biden has empathy for Americans when it comes to natural disasters.

The far-right will say it's all for publicity and the such, but they've already complained that Biden didn't show up. So make up your minds! Which is it?
