Biden Refused Abbott’s Request That He Sign Major Disaster Declarations For 177 Texas Counties After Refusing To Allow Texas Power Plants To Operate At 100% Capacity Resulting In Massive Power Outages

My question? Why didn't Gov.Abbott simply order all Texas power generation facilities to operate at peak efficiency and force Biden to send his army to Texas to stop us? Does anyone think Biden would have sent the army to shut down our national gas power generation facilities?

[USA Conservative]

The Green New Deal at work. He’s throttling our energy independence with his actions.

Republicans have to obey the Laws and regs ‘Rats write.

‘Rats don’t.

It would be interesting who told Biden to do this, as he’s not up to figuring something like that out himself. It would be interesting to know the Who and the Why, but journalist quit writing serious investigative pieces when they turned to hit pieces and smear tactics.

What the hell is wrong with him other than his flipping demented brain. ?

[DIRTYSECRET]

Obama did the same thing she Texas got in trouble. red state.

[HollyB]

Agree!

[stylin19a]

The declaration Biden signed late Friday covers much of the Texas population, including Dallas and neighboring counties, and the counties that include Houston, San Antonio and Austin. But it falls far short of what Texas officials sought. The assistance can include grants for temporary housing, home repairs, and low-cost loans.

Figures...all RAT areas...and that's not on purpose?

Republicans should expect Biden to try to undermine Texas and plan accordingly. They still don’t get what we’re up against with this Democrat party.

First of all Biden did not order ERCOT to initiate rolling blackouts. Secondly governor Abbet could not have stopped the electric grid here in Texas from operating at peak efficiency. Thirdly even if he had it would’ve overloaded the entire grid and created complete blackouts for all of Texas lasting weeks perhaps months.

It might seem like a good idea to blame Joe Biden for what happened. But it wouldn’t be true.

[wrcase]

I would put nothing past this illegitimate president.

[ryderann]

Obama’s fingerprints are all over this catastrophe just like when he denied Texas federal help for the terrible drought and wildfires while he was the official president.

[Widget Jr]

First the Biden administration creates the problem that shuts down the Texas power grid, then shuts down the disaster response.

Just who is really calling the shots in the White House?

[Aria]

Thanks for your comment because it wasn’t making sense to me that Biden could just decree this disaster and the governor would obey.

[Jewbacca]

Agree.

[rellic]

Very good question!
I would have told Bidget to stuff it.
It would also be a good idea to figure out
the loyalties of the National guard, so you
can disarm all Federal police on Texas soil.
Then escort all active duty military personnel off Texas territory. Our military is disarmed on base.
Order confiscation of all federal taxes generated in Texas.
Control all access to Texas, roads, air, water, and however
else they will cross.
These are things he can do without firing a shot.

[A strike]

There you go trollin’ again/still.

Your left lib odors are not welcome here.

[BiglyCommentary]

Abbott should have worried about asking for forgiveness, not permission.

[LibertyOh]

The substance of the article correctly describes the EPA order that was given -did you not read it or as others suggest are you just a liberal troll. The 4 page EPA order does exactly what was described, let them operate to meet the needs but only if they were to charge exorbitant prices. This egregious act by the Biden administration needs to be clearly examined and investigated for the effect it had in causing the catastrophic damage to Texas.
