In 1928 Herbert Hoover promised voters, “a chicken in every pot and two cars in every garage.”

fast forward 100 years later.....

We now have a presidential candidate seeking reelection on the basis of banning not only meats and ICE’s, but even the means to heat the pot.

and businesses turn up their air conditioners amid scorching heat.

Businesses don’t turn up the air conditioning. The AC systems are programmed to maintain a certain temperature. They make it sound like it’s businesses that are causing the problem by adjusting their thermostats. SMH.

Weird. Liberals say electric vehicles would never overload the grid because the grid has excess capacity.

Quick, everyone buying electric car, and shut down all the evil “carbon” power generation, such as natural gas, coal and nuclear, and relying a bunch of windmills.

From the article:
“...PJM has ordered all power plants to be online and
for consumers enrolled in demand-response programs
to be ready to curtail their electricity usage
to keep power supply stable...

...PJM, which serves more than 65 million people
from Washington, DC to Illinois,
warned of potential tight conditions earlier in the week
and asked generators to prepare.
Power suppliers that fail to show up when asked to
by the grid may face stiff penalties....”

Brings to mind that squirrel in Ohio that took down the NE grid a couple of decades ago.

Growing up in South Jersey I remember some over 90 degree days in the early 1970s. We went swimming at Centerton Lake,some sandwash, or Lake Nummy. I always loved the cedar water.

SAME in N NEVADA.

Can go out when sun isn’t even up & work about 60-90 mins hacking Russian Thistles. Have 4 + acres to get under control.

Then watch reruns inside house while watching temp sender tell me it is 3 digit temps with about 7% humidity.

Oh, you mean one of the generators that the BiteMe administration wants to now ban?

Hope she stays cool and the fridge still works till they get the power back on, BTW.

Texas is the only Grid that can be isolated from everyone else. Or used to be, if the ptb haven’t screwed that up.
