As long as AOC writes the software in the name of diversity, I don’t see a problem. /s

Austin has been lost for 25 years. I lived there from 92-2000. It’s called the “jewel of Texas” because it is beautiful. It actually has hills. As liberal as it can get.

This potential sale of land to a Chinese Communist agent should be banned by the U.S. Government due to National Security reasons.

Laughlin Air Force Base is a training base but their is no way of knowing what potential classified info can be taken by ChiCom Surveillance technologies.

Many believe that Texas is solidly red, but for those who live here, we know how tenuous the situation is.

After China Joe's actions prior to the extreme cold this past week preventing power companies from increasing output, and his refusal to designate all counties as disaster areas, it is blatantly obvious he is punishing Texas for being Red. If the GOP has ANY intelligence, they will continually point this out and make sure every Texan is fully aware of these criminal acts!

Yep, we are teetering on the edge and the Dems know it. They smell blood, because they are the ones inflicting the wounds.

Our schools are the same indoctrination systems as the rest of the nation. The media/entertainment industry has the same undue leftist influence here. We have been swamped with immigration, both legal and illegal, foreign and domestic and nearly all of them vote blue.

We will soon fall, for the various reason listed above but also because the GOP has no fight in them and only want to be liked by the left and their media buddies. It would take serous, strong action to stop this but not even most Conservatives who see it happening want to do what is necessary, they labor under the false belief they can still win even knowing the system is heavily rigged against them.

Such will be the fate of the US, we will become like Europe, people like Joe Biden, Mitt Romney will be considered Conservatives with an even more rabid, insane Liberal left.

Probably with Mexican labor...Immigrants, after they are vaccinated for Covid, get their free housing, medical care and probably some free groceries.

“Governor Greg Abbott (R-TX) held an emergency session with the Texas Legislature Sunday morning but failed to mention the Blue Hills Wind Project or rampant Chinese influence over Texas’ energy grid.”

...must’ve slipped his mind.~sarc

I don’t think it’s stupid, stupid implies they don’t know any better for lack of mental capacity. These guys know better and yet they want this. So while it may not be stupid, it’s definitely something.

No more wind farms for Texas! They are not reliable and need to be backed up by fossil fuel or nuclear. For every megawatt of wind you need to build a megawatt of fossil to back it up. It is insanity to rely on an unreliable resource.

There is already a wind farm 25 miles away that serves that area.

Why in the world would we allow a Chinese company to build another wind farm across from our most productive training air base?

Didn’t they learn enough about wind power this past week?
Wind power is unreliable (period).

Wind and solar farms are a no brainer guaranteed money making ventures, backed by leftist environmental laws so leftists can cash in on the American people
