Wind turbines are part of it. Just how much is not clear now and can likely be and will be disputed. This all needs to be sorted out later.
Some wind turbines failed. Some natural gas plants failed. Neither failed because of the other.
The system had failures due to the above plants shutting down.
No, it’s pretty clear.

I wonder what Beto, who ran against Cruz, is doing? Hmmmm?
Placing blame where it belongs.

Beto is on a wild run. He now is using NAZI references to attack Republicans. I’m sure Disney would be fine with that.

No, its really not.
Wind turbines are freezing in Texas amid ‘unprecedented’ storm | The Independent
You will just have trouble finding anything about it using Google.
Refutations come right up, though.
It really is. Those ■■■■■ are a drop in the bucket compared to the other energy sources that are ■■■■■■■ up right now. Besides, the wind turbine freezes are yet another indication of incompetence due to lack of winterization.

So…it is at least partially wind turbines. Percent to be argued about later, maybe even by people involved in running the grid rather than green energy defenders.
Nah, that is pure obfuscation and distraction-mongering. We know why this is happening. They are launching an investigation into the matter to find the perfect patsy.
Nice distraction for you, huh?

Sounds like Dems think they have found that with Cruz going to Cancun.
Cruz went to Cancun. Texas is without power because of wind turbines.
^ one of those statements are true.
This is what I call “non news.” Cruz probably planned a vacation weeks or months ago, without any thought to getting away from this cold snap, something that he couldn’t have anticipated. If getting out of the cold was reprehensible conduct, you would have to censure a the few dozen people I knew from my town -in NJ - who have fled to Florida. Including a former mayor who was once popular enough to have his name plastered on a lot of recognized sites in the town. And they always say it’s about “finally getting away from the cold winters.”

They are not mutually exclusive.
Abbott is exclusively full of ■■■■■

There are worse characters than cruz running about. Thankfully, this guy is gone, though I’m not sure how his voters didn’t know he was an ■■■■■■■■
Human filth. Even his wife was fired, he really ticked some people off!

And Abbot blaming solar and wind power for his infrastructural ■■■■ up is the cherry on top
Natural gas plants failed because of wind power! Amazing how that stupidity from Abbot was repeated here.
i had someone on my FB feed blamin Obama for the blackout. seriously

Cruz probably could have picked up the phone and cancelled that trip.

And that is opposite of what he said on local news, where he pretty much blamed it on the natural gas infrastructure.
There’s just less scrutiny at Pravda. Cut him some slack.

He never said they were. It remains true that only one of those 2 statements is based on reality
