The electoral college is, without question, an inseparable friend to those who believe that every American across our vast country deserves to be heard.
We must fight to defend it from the far Left.

“I can’t believe a woman in Hegseth’s entourage giggled briefly at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier” shrieked the Communist weirdo who thinks America deserved 9/11 and the Constitution is invalid because it was written by white men.

Absolutely wild how the left just straight up dropped climate change. Like “WHOOPSIE! Sorry about the billions of wasted dollars and ruined energy portfolio anyways here’s how we should do healthcare.”

Texas Dems ran on”affordability” and their solution is to deplete our emergency fund to give you the equivalent of $28 per week. They have no answers.
Governor-elect Gina Hinojosa and Texas Democratic lawmakers are propossing to declare the state’s high cost of living a “public calamity” in order to legally justify withdrawing $17 billion from Texas’s Economic Stabilization Fund (aka Rainy Day Fund) to send a $1,500 payment to every Texas household.
Is that legal?
Probably not. I explain why below.

The avg cost of electricity in the US is about 18 cents per kilowatt hour. In NY, it’s 28 cents a KWH. In Cali, it’s 34 cents. But in Texas folks pay just 15 cents per KWH… And Gov-elect Hinojosa wants to blow up this sweet deal with a price freeze?! Do Texans realize she may be leading them down the road to serious energy shortages?

Partisans love to hate on the Texas electric grid, which was built over the 20th century with narrow climate tolerances, and had a big failure during a freak 100-year freeze in 2021. They cast that event as the norm, which is false, and ignore what's happened since:
The grid has been strengthened in the wake, and now Texas outperforms the national average outage time per customer at 223.5 minutes/customer, vs the 262.6 minute average nationwide.
Texas now ranks better than average in price (22nd cheapest), with an average rate of 15.91¢/kWh, about 12.4% below the US national average of 18.16¢/kWh
Next time someone talks about how bad the Texas grid is, correct them by citing the facts.

Price ceilings below market rates raise demand while cutting supply, since producers earn less and reduce output or exit. Result: shortages. In electricity this risks underinvestment in generation and blackouts during peaks, as suppliers cannot cover costs. Historical energy controls produced rationing, not lasting affordability.

Can’t wait for approximately zero miles of this to be constructed and it becomes a money laundering scheme like the one in California.

It's almost as if the economy was doing just fine and everyone knew it but had to pretend otherwise for the midterms 🤔

In the 15 years after Texas deregulated electricity...
Price went *DOWN* in every COMPETITIVE region
and went *UP* in every REGULATED region!
Freezing prices is a terrible idea.
Texas Gov.-elect Gina Hinojosa says she will declare a "high-cost emergency" and freeze residential electricity rates within an hour of taking office.
The plan clashes with Texas' competitive energy market, where over 100 retail providers compete for consumers under a deregulation law.
Nick Loris, president of @C3Journal, warns the freeze could leave suppliers unable to adequately provide power.

If you don't understand the EC, or want to eliminate the EC, you are the reason for the EC.

Last week we warned of the Californication of Texas energy policy after the Democrat's election sweep.
Looks like the Democrats are skipping the Californication part and jumping right to the Venezuelation of Texas....

Energy policy analyst here: Freezing electricity rates will INCREASE prices. Don't be surprised if Gov-elect Hinojosa proposes net-zero climate targets too. Yikes.
Remember: States set electricity policies. Red states, low electricity rates. Blue states, high rates.
Buckle up, Texas...
