Whatever happens, when the federal government sends in FEMA and starts bailing out Texas, they better attach strings and bring the Texas grid into the federal regulatory scope.

Yeah, summer strains our grid in the northeast a lot more than winter. And I'm just about ready for summer now instead of more snow.

Not to worry. You won't get your state taxes raised to pay for needed upgrades. Instead, my federal taxes are going to bail yall out of yet another natural disaster your "low tax" state refuses to prepare for.

Denmark and Sweden don't seem to have much problem running windmills in cold weather. Russians can run a nuclear or gas plant at damn near the north pole.

You got it backwards. Ignoring the covid year anomaly, the NYC metro is the only part of NY that is growing. All the other cities you mentioned except Albany have been dying a slow death for a few decades now. NYC will be fine once tourism comes back. The rest still won't be fine.

I thought Rush Babies were what happened when frat guys forget to use a rubber.

Aren't the power plants themselves having issues with the cold?

Yeah. Biden should tweet "Since its okay for a President to incite people to attack Congress, somebody go get em."

You don't get to kick the can down the road intentionally and then say that Trump is shitty but we can't do anything now. Trump was impeached when you were senate majority leader, Mitch. If he was as bad as you said he was today, then you betrayed your duty as leader of the senate by refusing to call an emergency session. So step down. This is entirely Mitch's fault. As much as I hate Trump, I think Mitch is several times worse. There will only be 20 or 30 people in the level of hell where they end up.

He could shoot a Republican Senator in the capitol today, and that same Republican Senator would register a vote to acquit while bleeding out on the floor.

History always prevails is a cop out. History is made. Right now, in North Korea, history says Kim il Sung is a god. History is written by the victors and the Trump GOP knows they can still be the side that writes it. The Dems can not let them do so.

And they should. Enough of the bullshit. If the GOP doesn't care about governance, then they can go home and stay there. String the trial out and make them vote to acquit and make them publicly comment on their reasoning.

Sure, if you live at the airport already.

There is a Biden thread if you want to go complain about him there. But you support all those things. And you support open insurrection. So not sure what you are complaining about. This is a thread about taking the car keys away from someone who believes in Jewish space lasers. And you compare this to policy disagreements. And half your shit about Biden is made up anyway. So yeah, I can disagree with Biden while also knowing that Biden isn't a complete imbecile that needs to be removed from government. You're a sham. And not even a good one. There is one big thing that soulless people like yourself that just want to watch the world burn miss. Its gonna be burning with you in it. Wake up.

Look up Kathy Griffin. She took it too far. But really, you're just on the wrong side of history. The modern conservative viewpoint is intolerant and it desires punitive action against others for their skin color or gender. Or for being born poor. Or for believing in science. These things just aren't all that acceptable. Nobody needs to tolerate intolerance. "Cops, quit killing black people!" and "Cops, keep killing black people!" are not equal and opposite statements, either politically or otherwise. Sometimes wrong is just wrong. I could certainly nitpick issues with some Dem politicians that aren't progressive enough. But none of them called for the speaker of the house to be killed or believes in space lasers. There simply aren't equivalents. And you know that rocko.

It really sounds like Nikki Haley is trying to backtracking lately. Yeah. Fuck that shit. Once you start licking that orange asshole, the orange doesn't wash off. Nobody gets off the hook.

Trump doesn't have anything on them. You continue to think about it from the perspective of a caring human. They dont care. They are doing this to ingratiate themselves with Trump voters. The very same mob that attacked them. And all because they care more about continuing to get elected than actual governance. I would never hire someone so afraid of losing a job that they have a weaker spine than a jellyfish. I have no idea why people would vote for them. Its not that they're hateful even though they are. Its that they really have no actual ideals or goals. I will take a hateful true believer over a spineless jellyfish any day. They are more straightforward to deal with. Trump could tell Cruz to send his wife to Saudi Arabia as a gift to a sheikh and she would be on the next boat there. Cruz just wants those Trump voters to make him President so he would give them anything. And as President, Cruz isn't going to do jack shit because all he wants is to be President just like he wants to be a Senator now. Just the title. Nothing more. At least Trump wanted people to swear loyalty to Trump and grift. Its not much of an ethos, but its way more than the bootlickers are working with.

They suck as humans. There is a single thing that may have been able to change their ways though. They didn't care about cops being killed. They would not have cared if a Dem had been killed. But a Republican being killed may have made them take this seriously. If I was related to one of them, I would tell them to fuck off and never talk to them again.

So he is just telegraphing the fact that he is about to lie.

Agree on Twitter. It's shocking how much the bans quieted down everything. But Trump will still be around and trying to profit off his base in 2022. He is just waiting for the impeachment to end and trying to figure out a post twitter move. He will absolutely be noisy again. Forgotten or dead is wishful thinking. He is gonna be around for 8 or 9 hundred more years.

In Texas, it would be for sale. So it would be someone like Fertitta or Mattress Mac. And both would be better than Cruz or Cornyn because they would actually deal. In NY, you'd get someone better than Schumer or Gillibrand too. Long term policy wonks instead.

It was better when they were appointed rather than elected. It is supposed to be an educated and earned position. The house is for the rabble.

Split it all up. A plane for everybody. Every state can have a nuke. Whatever. Red states will sell their assets off anyway. They won't want to spend to maintain them. Norad will be Canada and a union of blue states.

Now here's a Trump speech where we cut out the bad parts. See, he doesn't incite. Next we can watch 15 minutes of a Hitler speech where he talks about German jobs and pretend the last 20 minutes where he talked about killing Jews doesn't exist.

This guy wouldn't win a middle school debate with this bullshit. Not that it matters. The Senate already voted before this even started. Fuck it. Let's just get the Civil War started. This shit isn't sustainable. Maybe in the aftermath we can elect people who put country over self and party.
