The BBQ pit thing I heard on at least two news reports here in Houston, along with warnings to stop doing that.

Yes, I heard reports of charcoal BBQ grills in homes and garages. I grill exclusively with charcoal and would never do such a thing. I actually wish I had stocked up on charcoal before “the big freeze”, but I was not expecting to lose power for 24 hours. Didn’t really matter. My wife and I had lunch and dinner at some friends’ house while our power was out.

Twitter has lost its relevance now that Trump is gone from the platform.

I agree there is nothing he can really do by being in TX.

It’s an optics thing. More fuel for the liberal media.

Just like when McConnell shutdown the idea of 2K stimulus during the congressional race in GA.

Only because someone who doesn’t care about deficits and spending at all foolishly tried to out-welfare the Democrats by calling for $2K checks.

I’ve already seen more coverage of Ted’s vacation “faux pas” than I ever saw of Swalwell sleeping with a Chinese agent.

I guess it really does pay (in many ways) to be a Democrat.

"To all posters who think that Cruz should be in Texas, I ask “Doing what?”

Not politically shooting himself in the foot.

Be honest - if in the days following Hurricane Katrina, it was found out that then-Democrat Senator from Louisiana Mary Landrieu was embarking on a Mediterranean cruise, would you have felt the same way you do about Cruz's Cancun trip?

Democrats will always get the benefit of the doubt from the media and act accordingly.

The media will always be gunning for Republicans, who for some reason, not only fail to learn that, but keep furnishing the media with more and more ammunition.

We put firewood in the BBQ pit and cooked all the meat in the freezer. Also made coffee and hot chocolate.

The only thing that sucks is that I couldn’t have any music since I had no batteries for any of my radios.

And yet that was the issue that gave the libs the senate.

Notice that the rats didn’t even give 2000 but they showed openness to it.

If McConnelll would have sounded open to it, they wouldn’t have had that issse to run on.

And saying that Mitch cares about the deficit is laughable.

Yes, that’s true...he’s toast. It’s too bad this happened now, because he has been supportive of Trump and has been willing to fight. Now his stupid actions are being used to discredit the entire GOP.
