In 2011, study done & identified these deficiencies in Texas Grid.
Abbott & his MAGAT co-conspirators spend tax dollars on illegal acts.
Abbott is preparing a 14,000 acre ranch for the people who resist these NAZI MAGATS!

Good thing Dan Patrick is focusing on what really matters - banning hemp derived THC products. Dan Patrick is pro black market.

Arizonans are asked to reduce natural gas use

Now SW Gas and Salt River Project are increasing gas turbine power generation at Roosevelt AZ ( a minority community with a past of fatal gas pipeline explosions )

not a good sign for TX

Geez, I did not know that. Funny how our heater usage causes a problem, but all of us running our A/C 24/7 during the summer doesn’t.

Texas State “Government” should be burned to the ground and replaced with actual elected officials without all the gerrymandering and single party rule.

PSYCHOPATH Trump (KGB codename since 1987: Krasnov) has been PSYCHOPATH Putin’s bootlicker for decades.

Trapped w/in the behavior patterns of their disorder, WORLD DOMINATION/ENSLAVEMENT is the agenda as *RUSSIA’S Republicans*—also cultivated over decades—destroy America/Americans to pave the way.
