California Gov. Gavin Newsom has reminded everybody in his state that they need to set their thermostats to 78 degrees or higher, turn off unnecessary lights and avoid using large appliances until after 9 p.m. (so much for charging electric cars).
Other politicians from California are sharing those reminders and Rep. Eric Swalwell is one of them:
Rep. Eric Swalwell (@RepSwalwell) ~ It’s time to rally, California!
We all need to do our part to help avoid power outages this week.
Before 4pm, pre-cool your home. After 4pm, avoid use of major appliances and turn your thermostat to 78 or higher.
Let’s keep the lights on, California.
And that’s where the brilliant shot/chaser artist @DefiantLs comes into the story, and it’s quite a “how it started/how it’s going” gem:

Back in July, Swalwell was referencing this alert ...
Phil Jankowski (@PhilJankowski) ~ Breaking: ERCOT has issued an alert for possible rolling blackouts Monday from 2 p.m. to 8 p.m. "A projected reserve capacity shortage with no market solution available." Additionally, ERCOT has issued a call for energy conservation Monday.
Sorry to break it to ya, Eric, but ... we didn't have any blackouts ... rolling or otherwise ... in the D/FW area this summer. Everything just kept on cranking, as per usual.
Don't worry, Eric ... just make sure Fang Fang and your wife have plenty of batteries on hand ... since their vibrators are FAR more fulfilling than you are, sport.

Comrade Misty is Putin’s Buddy (@SarcasmStardust) ~ Classic. 🤣🤣🤣
Swalwell won’t be self-aware enough to bother to notice the irony.
Swalwell is too stupid to be self-aware.
