After The Nightmare In Texas Is Over

we need 'someone' like Steyer to pony-up the dough to start a state-wide tv ad campaign explaining to the residents, that the electrical outages, water outages, the coming sky-rocketing electric bills, and the other price-gouging, are all at the hands of the Repub DEREGULATION agenda, and it will KEEP HAPPENING unless they throw the Repubs out.

that the people of Texas would be able to find out WHO is responsible for this monumental fustercluck!
Were it to have happened in a society where personal honor and integrity was paramount they would already have resignations from at least 1 governor, one senator, and who knows how many others.

Lord knows we've got enough 'independent commissions' forming these days, but, well, might not be a bad idea here.
Good luck Texas - you're gonna' need it.
