NBC Reporter: Terrifying Experience Rushing Toddler To Hospital As State Is Powerless | Katy Tur
I hope everybody lights come on…. Everybody!!!
According to Ted Cruz
Real Texans are tough and they don’t need power
Yeah, cause he’s gone to Cancun
Exactly! Real Texans go to Cancun. 🤭
@Paula Lim so real Texans are cowards who abandon people when they need help the most? Yep, sounds about right.
When it snows in Texas
Ted Cruz turns into a Snowbird and flies to Mexico
All hospitals should have a Disaster Relief backup plan.
Hospitals do have backup generators for power but are not equipped for lack of water due to their governments irresponsible emergency preparedness.
Hospitals do
Apocoliptic Texas..this is when you have leaders say..fend for yourself..no empathy ..good going Cancun Cruz
👍🏼
I like Cancun Cruz, but you should try “Fled Cruz” lol
These politicians keep getting more nick names! Cancun Cruz is good! What was his previous nick name?
@myrna jay I’m unsure… Ted Cruise? Although that’s weak lol
@MysticiaDev Creative lol ; )
Maga cult: “Yeah, it’s all the fault of the windmills!”
Texas: “But renewable energy is only 15% of our power supply. Natural gas is 50% of the total.”
Maga cult: “WINDMILLS!!! 😜 ”
Texas: 🤦🤷
Did the renewable energy plants freeze up?
Yes. Yes they did.
@Crimdor “The Texas power grid has not been compromised.The ability of some companies that generate the power has been frozen. This includes the natural gas & coal generators.” – Gov Abbott Feb 15, 2021.
Sorry, you were trying to make a point? 😅😂🤣
Ro G – that’s true too.
We’re both right.
“WINDMILLS! CAUSE CANCER!”
“No, sir, you were in a tanning bed for six hours.”
“WINDMILLS!”
Actually only 10%
Welcome to a Republican run state (20years). He loves lower taxes, privatization and deregulation but only hates the result of those polices when it affects him. Vote Republican and get more of the same.
Why does California have Wildfires and power outages every year ?
Prayers going out for Texas.. 🙏🏼
Even Ayn Rand took both Social Security and Medicare. People like Rick Perry continue to promote the myth that society functions better when it’s everyone for themselves.
Everything’s bigger in Texas, especially their fu@# up’s.
That’s odd, because Cruz didn’t seem to have a problem getting to the airport for his trip to Mexico recently.
@Crimdor lol, in no way do I sound like trump, for one I don’t tell lies like he does
psycobleach46 tullis – “it is NOT Biden’s job to talk to the officials there it is the governors and state legislators that need to look into it”
Replace Biden with Trump and that was trumps response to states dealing with COVID
psycobleach46 tullis – so actually you do sound like trump. You sound EXACTLY like him
@Crimdor I’m talking about how to fix their power grid, that is the states problem.
psycobleach46 tullis – same argument could be made about California wildfires, but trump still visited and met with officials
Are Texans gonna march down to their capital with them ice cold guns?
😂😂😂
You may not be interested in climate change, but climate change is interested in you.
It’s La Niña this year though. That’s why
Hug and kiss that little boy a thousand times.
This is what deregulation looks like.
Terrible situation. It’s almost as if Greg Abbott, Rick Perry, and George W. Bush have been running the state for the last 25 years!
The condition of the USA is becoming frightening. From politics to social issues, to climate.. This country is in for a reckoning.
Imagine if we covered the Puerto Rico aftermath by pointing out everything they did wrong rather than what we could to help.
Crimdor actually republicans did point out everything wrong with PR before help was sent. I’m pretty sure help is there or on its way, and I guarantee power companies from other states are there helping
I don’t think you’re remembering how the PR aftermath went down accurately. At all.
WAIT WAIT WAIT.. Cruz says this then he gets on a plane and leaves the state… SMMFH
I’m confused, was his son allergic to peanuts?
