Thank you

Id10t.

Hmmm, 1836, a great year!

So ERCOT has no oversight on power generator weatherization. Who had oversight authority?

Senate committee on Business and Commerce shows nobody was Responsible. Bush, Perry, Abbott, and Patrick Screwed Texas.

Who's trying to overturn the 2nd amendment? Fear monger much?

You have a weird fetish.

We are looking for accountability today and information to ensure that this never happens again. When I asked ERCOT CEO Bill Magness about the contradictions between his testimony and that of the CEOs of energy generators, he wasn’t able to provide a clear answer. We don’t know the truth yet, but generators say they were offline because of ERCOT’s actions. ERCOT says they aren’t sure about that. Rest assured, we’ll get to the bottom of this.

We will continue to work to get the answers that Texans deserve. ... See MoreSee Less
