Houston is his home town.
Is he even in Texas right now?

Not a fan of the man so I had to google. It looks like he posted on twitter an hour or so ago from a shelter in Houston…so I am guessing he is in the state. I don’t have a twitter account and I can only see a little clip so don’t hold me to it. 😆
While I really don’t like him, I do think he is smart enough to learn from his last episode…unlike so many others. 😉😆

I heard he's back in TX, whereas Abbott is not. However, can anyone confirm that Whataburger is how people are tracking outages because the power company doesn't supply that info?  |

Abbott’s off on his “I wanna be president someday” tour. Neither of them gives a crap about blue Houston anyway.

Centerpoint’s outage map has been “down for maintenance” since May. We’ve had two major weather with widespread outages events since then. |

And and Cruz couldn’t go to Cancun because they got hit by Beryl before we did. Aruba, maybe?

I mean, it’s not going to give you street by street guidance, but if you’re out looking for a gas station or store with power, heading towards the open Whataburgers isn’t a bad strategy . |

Making the big time.... After the devastation left in the wake of Hurricane Beryl, millions of Texans were left without power. And once again, residents of the Lone Star State were unable to count on Texas' flagship utility company for either prompt service restoration or even reliable communication. Some Texans frustrated with the Electric Reliability Council of Texas and main power company CenterPoint Energy (formerly Reliant Energy) not providing residents with an outage tracker found a better alternative — the app for Texas-based fast food chain Whataburger. Of course our Texans already knew!! x.com/0liviajulianna/status/1810533306179408236 |

They’ve rarely done anything to help so we’re indifferent as to where they are. Abbott withheld federal disaster funds from Harris County (which had the most $$ in damage) after Harvey just because we don’t vote for him. Biden has said he’ll get federal funding directly to affected counties this time instead of letting Abbott/the state distribute it like Trump did. We’re better off that way. Me, I’m just planning our move to Spain. |

DH can come with me or he can stay and deal with the fall-out. One "I told you so" I am looking forward to if someone wins. |
