    Anybody else thinking covert warfare against a too-independent Texas?

    • No ,I’m not thinking that .What I’m thinking is Texas ,which is normally not a winter wonderland area didnt have it’s grid up to par for serious winter weather outside of tornado season which would wreck a power grid anyway. Power outages happen in the northeast in winter weather also and nobody cries conspiracy/ covert warfare or about being too independent there. It’s fun/interesting to speculate but it can go too far when being aimed at the ” believe whatever you see on conspiracy site” types , way too easy for that to start generating fear porn. So go ahead and hate me if I busted some body’s bubble.

        • No hate. I’m willing to consider different viewpoints without getting worked up. Sorry to disappoint if you were expecting hate.

            • No expectation of any thing just used to seeing people go pissy pants when some one doesnt agree with their guru or something they have said or want to start a meme over or even worse continue a meme .

                • i haven’t been here in a bit and I can wholeheartedly say I am taken aback by your obnoxious tone. Totally unnecessary to be snide and contemptuous here. We entertain alternative ideas regularly. The idea that Texas, a leader in free speech activism in a time of state tyranny, and could be targeted with weather or space weapons, is perfectly reasonable to bring up for discussion here. Leave if you can’t be civil.

                    • I am not subject to your control in any way shape or form “voxi pop”. I will not be controlled by you . If you think you have this kind of control over me you are sadly mistaken I will think for myself. If you want this sort of power over others then go start you own cult. Telling people what they can do or where they can or cant be is not being civil. In addition to that being said Iam just as entitled to have my alternative view points as you are. You do not run the show here. Did you read what I said about people going pissy pants when someone doesnt agree with them ? When Farrell says its polite discussion I dont think he means always agree with the party line like a 5 yr old’s invisible friends do. I am not here to worship any gurus or be any one’s sycophant . Being able to disagree is being civil.

                      • Yeah, you can run around a room constantly farting loud toxic noise too, and someone may ask you to step outside. Deal.

                  • How could ‘the grid’ not be up to par? We use heat pumps in Texas. The exact same equipment running our ACs in summer 24/7 110 degrees AUG. I don’t understand how the grid can’t handle it? The power war is clear. Look away from the Nazis taking over while u freeze.

                    • There’s no conspiracy propaganda unless making money and taking political contributions count. ERCOT is doing exactly what they told to do, push sustainability.
                      Substituting wind turbines and solar energy for moth balled “dirty obsolete” conventional power plants added to the power outages. Their thirst for power and money got the b st of them. There is no shortage of competent engineers but the over supply of MBA’s with a minor in political science with connections to globalization nuts 🥜, out flank them in designing an adequate power grid. Listen to the science my eye. Maintaining there cushy leather seat positions is what
                      ERCOT is all about and that’s what told I them last night in my letter to Bob Orr, Media hack and Leslie Sopko, Government Relations hack. Ask them to please resign and sell their skill set to a benign NGO where they can do no harm.
                      Governor Abbott needs to do much more than investigate. Fire the lot and start over.
                      And stop posturing to be the next President in a wheel chair. Tend to Texas. If he does that….maybe.

                    • I’m thinking disaster capitalism, or else more weather manipulation to scare and annoy people so they’ll swallow the climate-change malarkey when they’re forced to eat bugs and 3D-printed meat to “save the planet.”

                        • I’d say disaster capitalism is utilizing social engineering techniques to obtain goals. It’s part and parcel of many facets, including the oldest one, divide and conquer. Whatever it takes to accomplish the results needed for the project at hand. Shutting down all reliable coal fired power plants as done during Obama’s era and replacing the megawatts lost with unreliable solar and wind turbines to receive federal dollars reeks of disaster capitalism. Who got paid off to push the idiotically stupid idea? Consultants and probably compromised engineers and politicians. All in the name of sustainability and check mark to show “green energy” meaning mostly money in someone’s bank account. What a waste of a life span and talent.

                        • Husband and I were just talking about this, his thinking was the weather situation may be a natural Polar Vortex, he did wonder if the collapsing grids might be part of a cyber attack of sorts possibly from Iran or elsewhere.
                          While I can see his point (and it has merit) it feels to me more like an aging grid, that has been both underfunded and set upon by all sorts of restrictions from the Federal Government as well as the State. Also, in a location where traditionally the severe power usage is during long-hot-Summer heatwaves rather than serious cold spells.
                          But this is not mutually exclusive, especially with “someone(s)” trying to take over and poison urban water supplies and other cyber “attacks” that have occurred recently.

                          • I like a good conspiracy theory as much as the next nut; but, in this case, I’m just thinking “February”!

                              • I’ve changed my mind. Having looked at some of the Mockingbird coverage, it does look as though the Texan weather has been manipulated for political purposes. I should have had more faith in Elana Freeland’s assessment that there is no completely natural weather any more.

                              • I’m thinking a little assist play is going on.
                                The weather isn’t being controlled; per se, it’s being manipulated when “they” find it advantageous to make it so; to nudge it this way, or that way.
                                The question is
                                does the NWO want the NYSE to move to Texas?
                                If not?
                                Here’s why not – now.

                                That’s the problem of mainstream boys who call wolf. When the wolf comes; no one believes it.
                                The wolf being real.
                                Real being something rare these days.
                                So weather changing in Texas, is the norm.
                                The good, the bad; and
                                the down right ugly – a chilling polar vortex.
                                Is it real?
                                Or, an assist?
                                Disaster capitalism and weather manipulation have been in bed together so many times; it’s getting hard to tell when “we’re” not being played by unusual weather events. Especially,
                                when there’s so much money/power at stake.

                                And, just how many players are there in this weather manipulation? NWO? Military? Intelligence agency? Breakaway civilization?
                                Or, even that off-planet player?
                                How many in-the-know, are scratching their heads?

                                Radar signatures?
                                Any other tell-tale signs?
