Texas is geared for hot weather and ERCOT should easily have been able to handle this load. ERCOT manages the Texas energy grid and it looks like they're run by Democrats if you look into the backgrounds of their board members.

In fact, 5 of the board members, including the chair (lives in Michigan, connected to Witchmer) doesn't even live in Texas. WTF? How does that happen? More to come out on this....

This is Globalism. Uninterested people with no personal investment in the welfare of locals profiting from them while controlling their fate from a comfortable distance.

tin foil hat time, Dem board orchestrated this mess to get the FEDs to come in and seize control of the texas grid absorbing it into the national grid

And that's when secession happens. Which is why Texas's grid was separate to begin with.
