Can you show me where anyone from the federal government has done a single thing beyond sending 60 generators that arrived too late and some blankets?The crisis is not over. It is ongoing.
You can repeat your false claim that no one is helping as much as you want, doesn’t make it a fact.
I would love to see a Tulsi Gabbard vs. Dan Crenshaw general election, but fear those candidates are not kick-ass enough. Gabbard won't get past a primary, as the media has already sullied her with "Russian Collusion" type rumors. Crenshaw will clearly appeal to the white supremacist-militia crowd with his libertarian leanings and special operations background, but that's not much of a voting bloc.
...And then get adoring Media coverage of how wonderful they are, and how much they care.Can you show me where anyone from the federal government has done a single thing beyond sending 60 generators that arrived too late and some blankets?
because FEMA said in their statement yesterday that is exactly what they had done
so basically they did what Dems always do - talk, put on a PR show and then nothing that actually fixes the problem
I’d support a Nikki/Tulsi ticket. Badass chicks.
Without doubt the always positioning, conniving, scheming and politically smarmy Decepticon, Nikki Haley, is planning to use the GOPe apparatus in her effort to become the republican nominee in 2024. This is as certain as the sunrise tomorrow. However, that said, Haley is now a fully exposed DeceptiCon; except -of course- in the eyes of the most entrenched of the professional political class. [NOTE – CTH archives are of value when researching Nikki Haley on these issues.]

Well, she has got nicer legs than Jeb(!)...Nikki Haley is GOP establishment to the core, and is going to be the candidate the GOP establishment will try to shove down our throats in 2024. Like Dan Crenshaw, she is a political grifter whose primary issue is one thing: ensuring permanent middle eastern war continues.
There is not a snowball's chance in hell she could win the nomination in a fair primary. The Trump base hates her, her only base would be Romney style Republicans who are a massive minority.

Cruz, his wife, children, all stranded and suffering in their frigid home without
any realistic prospect of relief in sight. In an effort to relieve his family from
having to endure these sub-zero temperatures, he makes a decision to move
them to a warmer location. What a great idea, wish I had thought of it.
Thanks for validating my point....FEMA send supplies based on what the state requests, which were generators, water, food, and blankets.
Per Emergency Management Chief Kidd with the Texas Division of Emergency Management, roads have been too icy to distribute the supplies they requested. Due to those icy conditions, the FEMA emergency warehouse in FTW wasn’t accessible until Thursday night.

I managed to get out Thursday and Friday both in Ft Worth...people made it to the shelter both days - the one our local church ran without any federal supplies...planes landed at dfw everyday this week and the same for the joint base in fr worth...I agree that more could be done. Having said that, the situation down here in Texas is a quite a bit bigger than a small patch of ice on the Kemah Boardwalk exit on I45.
I guess I also missed any single politician in either side of the aisle campaigning on the need to re-regulate our power infrastructure from beginning to end since it was deregulated in 1999....TEXAS REPUBLICANS RAN A 20-YEAR EXPERIMENT. THE RESULTS ARE IN.
The state’s energy crisis didn’t come out of nowhere: It took decades of deregulation to make it happen.

I have no problem with Ted Cruz leaving the country. In fact I wish he would’ve stayed in Mexico
Agreed, as long as such an exodus would also include Biden, Harris, Pelosi, AOC,
and those remaining comrades that are part of their egregious commune.

That article is exactly the problem with the Democrats- they are using a tragedy to push their political hate agenda instead of using the power they have gained to fix the problem...
Same as the last regime...but they act like they are so much better
Dan Crenshaw is John McCain 2.0, the only issue he cares about is permanent middle eastern war. He gets into twitter feuds with anti-war users and gets on his soapbox about how important permanent war in the middle east is.
He is also a gun control proponent.
The MAGA base already hates Dan Crenshaw, which is why he could never win any race outside of his own congressional district, and even then he could be primaried there.
Hindsight is undefeated.Never let a crisis go to waste.
I am not the biggest fan of the Texas state leadership as I feel that decades of single party rule has made the Texas state GOP very soft and swampy, but its funny how the media/democrats are trying to paint a broad referendum brush here. "Things went bad for a week, therefore we need to elect democrats".
Where is the media drumbeat to elect Republicans in California as year after year wildfires, rolling blackouts, and water shortages occur due to environmental regulations?
Let he who campaigned on a platform to re-regulate our power infrastructure, cast the first stone.
