So they caused the biggest winter storm in ages???

Wind and solar also didn’t help in energy situation during winter 2021 storm. It’s known natural gas or other energy production didn’t winterize equipment to handle a 100 year or greater type winter freeze event (can’t remember how rare & extreme), and this was made worse trying to start up reserve production when wind & solar stopped producing while demand soared to keep warm. Risk analysis showed costs were not justified for winterizing down to such extreme winters and would have also pushed down price increases to consumers at the time, so they winterized to a more realistic level at the time.

Texans for Public Justice took on the tough job

Started in 1997 in Austin and later moved from Gov Bush to focusing on Bush’s 2000 and 2004 campaign contributions. They definitely have a certain agenda that this reporter and poster must like.

quote:
Texans for Public Justice
It has been accused of being "funded by out-of-state foundations and rich individuals to specialize in "lawfare" against state officials of whose policies they disapprove". Craig McDonald, a Michigan native, founded the organization and is its current Director. He began his career on the political left via the public interest movement in the late-1970s working as a community organizer. Working for Ralph Nader's Public Citizen activist group in 1984, he went on to create the Texas office of Public Citizen in that same year.

According to TPJ, its board of directors includes, in addition to McDonald, two other veterans of Nader's Public Citizen; a former aide to the late Texas Democratic Gov. Ann Richards who was also a Clinton-Gore organizer; and a journalist who "has written for numerous progressive publications."

The group receives monies from George Soros, Open Society Foundations, the Piper Foundation, the Sunlight Foundation, the Winkler Family Foundation, and Good Jobs First. Its 2005 tax return showed "Texas trial lawyers as major contributors.

Bush defeated Richards, and then Bush ran against Gore. It formed from typical Clinton political payback mixed in with Nader’s leftist agenda and funded by Soros and Trial lawyers.

Using Texans for public justice as source this specific reporter for the Houston Chronicle isn’t even trying to mask his agenda and usually doesn’t.
