The tragedy in Texas has nothing to do w Green Deal, or really renewables.
The real story: Texas gov knew this could happen for years — they did nothing about it, instead Texas deregulated and increased executive pay and profits.
Every Texan should be mad as hell at @GovAbbott
I don't think people understand how large a fuck up the #TexasBlackout is. Too many are talking about how this is freak weather and it was unforseen. It wasn't. It was seen in 2011. A thread.

I covered this in 2011 when I was a news reporter at KOSA-TV in Odessa, TX.
It was wild back then.
Even more staggering now that it's happened ... again.

This thread is wild.
In 2011, ERCOT saw this coming, wrote a report on it, and it looks like everyone dropped the ball in implementing it.
What a colossal fuck up. #texaspoweroutage

Texas disaster was not unexpected, unprecedented or unmanageable. Referenced doc notes instances in 1989 and 2011 neither of which had anything to do with the Green New Deal either.

This is how cold it is at my Apartment.
As a Texan, yes, I'm certainly not built for this. I don't even care.

It should be reported as an exercise in Congressional jury nullification since a vote had been taken on the Constitutionality and that matter was settled, yet they continued to vote on that rather than on the charge.

As a Black Muslim who’s spent decades listening to random white folks insist that my community take responsibility “for the extremists in our midst,” I have questions. Lots of them.
