Dallas official says White House called him about storm before Texas governor did

Chief Executive of Dallas County says ‘the governor made a conscious choice’ not to prepare for current crisis, and was still to reach out on Thursday as thousands remained without power

"SNIP.....

The leader of the city of Dallas says the White House called him during this week’s winter storm, but not Texas governor Greg Abbott.

Judge Clay Jenkins, the chief executive of Dallas County, told MSNBC on Thursday morning that Joe Biden’s administration was assisting with his city’s response to the record breaking winter storm Uri this week.

But Texas’s Republican governor — who has been called on to step down amid the crisis — had not called, Judge Jenkins told MSNBC host Hallie Jackson.

What a refreshing change from the slimy fuckers who are just looking out for themselves

3. That's been a common statement this week.

I'm in the Austin area, and lots of local officials here and in other cities have said the same thing.
