    For those of us in TX still fighting the cold and new snow, add this to your list of energy providers who require throttling after this is over. Death toll up to 30 and the damage to our food supply is incalculable at this moment – but HUGE.

    • The TX ‘grid’ failure is fake. Our grid does 24/7 compressor MAX ON all summer long. No problem. Garbage secret wars. I don’t believe one bit the ‘narrative’ at this point.

      • So sorry
        Justa, My prayers are with you.

        • Any way to throttle life is not wasted, diabolical!

          • It never occurred to me how this would affect the food supply… that’s awful. Best of luck getting through all the disruptions!

            • I saw the busted water pipes and long lines of freezing people waiting to get into grocery stores on the link to the “humanitarian crisis”; it also showed certain zip codes to have been more affected than others – interesting that office buildings still have power.
              Justa, sending prayers your way and to everyone there.

              • … yes, just as I’m sure New Orleans has been “waterized” since Katrina. I attended a conference in NO not long after Katrina. Several attendees took the shuttle from the airport to Downtown / French Quarter. On the way we had an interesting conversation with the driver. Long story short … when asked about all the promised funds to make NO more hurricane resistant he just laughed. His comment was that all that money will go to the same places all the previous monies for such projects went. I’ll let you guess where the money went.

                  • If Conservatives/people interested in saving a free America don’t get their asses in gear after this bloody wake up call, I give up. II am seriously considering getting on the board of my local energy cooperative if only because they have excelled over some of our neighbors and I would like to ensure a safe future for my region. We have been sitting on our hands while we let the “green retards” do all the work to run things nearly into the ground. So nearly that this has become a “near death” experience. Hope others will join me to figure out what they can do “after work” to fix this dang country.

                  • We are fortunate to have the power back on where we live in Ft. Worth, but so many are still suffering all up and down the corridor from the “polar vortex”. Anyhow, that’s the meme.
                    Prayers are going out for those still suffering from this storm. Here is the url posted over at today’s blog. “Green energy run amok.”
                    The answer is not “blowin’ in the wind”!

                    • Looks like a pattern…I’m thinking this is a consequence of weather modification, along the lines of Fukashima, the flooding I’ve heard Dr. Farrell discussing in China and the mega hurricanes which developed in the 90s. Regardless of cause, the cascade of consequences for populations in America’s Heartland from Canada to Mexico will be devoted to survival and recovery….and preparing for the next phase of this, flooding….. months and months of turmoil, expense, and stress…until the next crisis hits. An assault on millions. In the mean time at the expense of thousands of communities large and small, the model for creating lots of “opportunity zones” seems to easily apply once the damaged populations are scattered and the debris is removed. Thanks for posting the Zero Hedge link Justawoman! I didn’t realize Texas had created, in addition to it’s own bullion reserves, it’s own electrical grid. . Like the earth quakes that shut down Fukashima’s reactors, I wonder if the fall out from this catastrophic weather event will be a powerful enough mess for those big banking interests to rethink moving to the Lone Star State. Or, perhaps it was an exercise to test and harden weak points in grid systems of all kinds. Which is the category I place the pandemic foisted upon the world. Chaos data collection and wearing down resistance.

                        • “Chaos data collection” is great terminology, and that is a good hypothesis. I have similar suspicions about that last sentence of the ZH article how “it wouldn’t shock us if a movement begins to push the power operator to tie its grid into the rest of the nation’s.” Certainly there are players who would want such a movement to gain momentum.

                          • You can probably place a safe bet that this op is laced w/disaster capitalistic engineered opportunities for the select “in-the-know-crew”.

                          • Very informative ZH article, clarifies a bit the power loss discrepancies pointed out in today’s Tidbit blog post.
