    Bet they pull themselves out of this by their bootstraps and don’t ask for any federal aid!

    You got this privately owned power grid! Prove us all wrong that you suck and the people who vote in the republicans who allow this to continue have the intelligence of a bag of Quikrete.

      Houston has more Democratic citizens than Republican. Their current mayor is a Democrat, and they voted for the Democratic nominated President in the last four elections. Austin is very similar. They’re blue islands in the red state, living under the oppressive reign of Abbott.

      By all means fuck the other half of the state under voter suppression right!? Houston is so blue that Harris County is the primary reason for their voter suppression. Do go on with your generalizations that make you feel strong and powerful by lumping everyone in a large geographical region together. Especially great character to do so on the premise of people’s suffering.
