Last night, Gov Abbott said “electricity costs in TX remain one of the lowest in the entire US & far lower than the nat'l avg.” Acc'g to EIA, this is false. In 2019, *before* Uri, Texas' residential electric bills were 7th highest in the US. Now things are worse. 1/ #txlege

This is MY Alamo. Always remember.

Non-spin reserves were ~$60m for all of 2020. Non-spin was ~$140m in July 2022 alone. One month was more than 2x an entire year! (May was >$160m) When you've got a blank check which Texas consumers must pay, it's not terribly hard to keep the lights on. #txlege #txenergy

As Southwest Airlines CEO Bob Jordan pretends to apologize—remember—SW got a $7B federal bailout, spent $5.6B of that on Stock Buybacks, gave their CEO a raise to $9.1M,& forced frontline workers to 16 hour shifts under threat of termination—while spending $0 updating their software😳

From ProPublica: UT Austin has the 17th largest collection of unrepatriated Native American remains in the U.S. It has the remains of at least 1,900 Native Americans that it has not made available for return to tribes. projects.propublica.org/repatriation-n…

"So why don't they bury power lines so tree limbs don't keep falling on them?" you might ask. Council Member Chito Vela asked Austin Energy's Thomas Pierpoint that question last year. Basically: It's too expensive.

NEW: Just spoke with Austin Energy VP of field operations Elton Richards who told me the 6pm Friday expectation for restoring power to everyone is doubtful. He’s not comfortable giving a time frame.

Timeline of Austin Energy restoration projections: Wednesday a.m.: "12-24 hours." Wednesday p.m. (to the public): "sometime Thursday." Wednesday p.m. (to elected officials): "6 p.m. Friday." Thursday a.m. press conference: "6 p.m. Friday." Thursday p.m.: "Well actually..."

(1:45 p.m.) We have determined we are unable to provide a specific system-wide restoration estimate. Each individual outage has unique challenges and full restoration will take longer than initially anticipated. At this time, we are unable to provide a restoration time.

If the Emergency Alert System goes off, it's too late. Jason Robertson already scored on you.

Live look at Wedgewood tonight:

What a game lol
