Loving all the DMs telling me renewables are NOT to blame for #TexasBlackout.

Green energy is NOT perfect. That's a non-controversial statement. If you don't accept it, we're done talking.

I don't waste time on intellectual children.

Fossil Fuels are not perfect either. That's not the issue.

The question is: given the cost, the lifestyle we demand as Americans, geopolitics, geology, physics, math, land use, etc what is the best mix of energy?

Politicians know this. That's why they talk about dietary regulation. Veganism. Banning the combustion engine. Heck, Bill Gates was just on 60 minutes talking about the sacrifice we must make. They know something has to give and they chose quality of life.

Did you chose that?

It's also not a partisan issue. It was RED Texas that chose to forgo fossil fuels in favor of green energy just like BLUE California has chosen the same. Both have resulted in deaths.

Not politicians' deaths. Not legislators or Governors. Regular people without a voice.

We were told we had to close coal plants because people were dying. Who? Can you find me one person who died from a coal plant?

I can show you 11 who died from the cold today. But not one greenie will cry a drop for them. Necessary casualties in the war against something.

The same people who told us to wear/not wear a mask or two or three, who kept your kids out of school while suicides doubled, who closed your business, they know all about the electric grid and have your best interest at heart.

Trust them. They "believe in science".
