  1. This is similar to what happened in Texas a couple years ago when a strong winter cold period increased electricity consumption (as people turned up heating) beyond what power company had prepared for. There was so much draw on the equipment that power had to be cut in order to avoid damaging the power generation equipment. Once the emergency blackouts (followed layer by rolling blackouts) began to save the power equipment, water pumping stations lost power. At that point, with water not flowing and hard freeze temperatures, the pipes bursts as water began to freeze. So, people were without electricity for heat and without water. Here, we don't wave radiator heating systems, but they're radiators bursting is the same as our water mains bursting. Except, it's very rarely thst cold in Texas. Our problem was due to the electricity company not planning enough fuel supply at the generating stations. Then, once the storm hit, more fuel couldn't be transported in. Whatever Russia's current electricity generating issues are, all those complaining Russians should be tried for treason. If they are not building military equipment in a factory or fighting on the front "to save Russia from invasion", then they are not a necessary part of the society because they aren't doing their patriotic duty to support their "benevolent" czar.

  2. 13:00 so-called "Republicans" painted themselves into a corner. Democrats are willing to give them a deal on the border but then Republicans give a border policy victory to the democratic president. This is a further symptom of a total lack of leadership and vision in the republican party. Republicans are entirely reactionary, completely on defense. It's like watching tennis match where 1 player (democrats) are playing a relaxing game and the other player (republicans) are furiously trying to return the incoming shots and vollies and exhausting themselves trying to keep up and unable to take charge of the match. Republicans should be spearheading aid to Ukraine because it's beneficial to the US defense industry while updating our arsenal, it's damaging to Russia (a country that views the US as an enemy in a zero sum game), and aid to Ukraine would be helping a nation and people who actually WANT our help in fighting for freedom and democracy. Not helping Ukraine is helping Russia. Helping Russia is anti-American as Russia under Putin is against everything America stands for.

  3. @@fudgepacker2858 - You're right, it's absolutely ridiculous that a power company would be so inadequately prepared for a well predicted storm in Texas and it's ridiculous that Russia is expending its resources and lives trying to expand the empire while they can't even properly administer the huge territory of acknowledged, legitimate Russia. If you were trying to say that what I said was untrue, you can actually look everything up and learn something.
