Gina Hinojosa says she'll freeze Texas electricity rates "within an hour" of taking office.
Problem: Texas energy was deregulated over 20 years ago. The government doesn't get to set prices. And after the grid almost collapsed during Winter Storm Uri in 2021, it needs investment. Not empty promises. We are seeing how little she knows about how the state economy works.

@FoxNews She can't freeze what she doesn't control. Texas deregulated electricity over 20 years ago, so retail providers set prices, not the governor.
After Uri nearly took the grid down in 2021, Texas needs investment, not empty promises.

Trump says the Iran war is "militarily effectively over" after meeting Qatar's PM. More strikes are "quite unlikely," but the US stays "locked and loaded."
No surprise who isn't running this story.

@TheKabobMafia@LPX2019 Maho Beach right next to the threshold of Princess Juliana Airport (SXM) on St. Maarten. InselAir MD-80s used to hold the brakes and spool up full power there for the show. That rear-engine blast was legendary.
