He spoke for all of us. There’s no excuse for the 4th largest city in America to act like a third world country. Pathetic.
@ 4:47 lol this is a 3rd world country, welcome to Da TrEnCHeS SCREWSTON , Tx H-ToWn babaayyyyy awwreddyyy holl uppppp haha
This career politician only spoke for all other career politicians. Whenever we have a disaster in Houston that they did not prepare for, this is always the speech. Worthless 3rd world losers.
Also we're the richest, or one of the richest countries in the world despite widespread poverty in parts, BUT!!! there's no excuse for this third world mess here in the USA!
The 3rd world countries are in shock because America should be better than this!
Judging by the population make up, it IS a 3rd world city. Sorry not sorry.
Facts the brisket guy knows what he’s taking about, why wait a week in advance when they know a storm is coming.💯
When we knew nationwide that Texas's power grid was seriously outdated because they give private companies free reign to keep their infrastructure up to date!
I don’t like Biden, but why are you waiting for executive response on a state level? Sounds like a lazy government employee.
Certainly doesn't jive with his constant federal government bashing with his "conservative" principals. 😅
@@CelestialWoodway Abbott ain't no Conservative, he's a CROOK. He's GOTTA to GO. He NEEDS to be FIRED. As much Disdain I had for Perry, At least HE wouldn't have stood by or let Centerpoint take over everything. Reliant was VERY Reliable and was ALWAYS able to respond quickly.
Especially when the deregulation this state government has been pushing for decades is the root cause of why repairs are so hard to fix. These individuals look like old men but act like children when it matters.
It's like the bipartisan border bill Trump didn't want to pass they'd rather you'd live without air conditioning and lights because they don't want it to look like Biden is accomplishing anything You're on your own in Texas you would like these idiots remember that when you vote in November
The president needs the governor to request the FEMA aid the president tried to contact your governor and receive no response how about sticking to the truth instead of running your mouth. The people of Texas deserve better Good news though Trump sending paper towels
Last year the CEO of CenterPoint made $38 Million. Why.
Because you’ll allow it
no, because center point is monopolized by Abbutt and his cronies , @philliphall5198
That's why there is no money for anything else.
He does provide electricity to the United States. Why do you think there were workers from Ohio Denver California all over America came here
U have to be pale and smart to earn that position USA has always been that why u think in places like the Hamptons NY only the big cats live??? U don't see a Chevy truck with accordion music there
This is not the first time Houston has been without power for a long time.
Hurricane Ike took out our power for 2 weeks
@@LarryWright-sh4oy I think the people that lost power are people that usually keep theirs when the storms usually hit, from the sounds of the interviews.
😂😂😂
They act surprised for underestimating the potential. No power companies came and staged. THAT is on your government
After hurricane Ike parts of the city didn't see power for over a month and half.
I have not seen a single truck from center point in spring branch to restore power…it’s now day 5…please help
Well a while back electricity was out for 11 days 5 seems quite small
Yea but that storm was a cat 4. This is ridiculous. No fuckin excuse.
@@John-f8e2ywe ain’t listening to company ppl like yourself sweet nothings bby this is unacceptable
Long point and Campbell has power
@solly773 I'm off cypresswood in North Spring and the whole neighborhood is out. Further down as well. It sux having to work from 5PM to 5 AM in New Caney and drive home to try to sleep in the heat and dark. I can't even come home to my wife and son because they went to stay in Killeen with family but I gotta work.
WAIT Why is the governor WAITING for the president to call????
Yup. Call already! Don't be precious or political. Get 'er done and don't wait around.
State and local officials must submit a request for a federal disaster declaration solely at the discretion of the president. Once the president declares Houston and other areas a disaster area, then federal funds are disbursed to those areas for cleanup and other necessary services. The lieutenant governor is correct. Incompetence on Biden's part. Too busy defending his position that he's competent to stay in the race for president 🤔
Texas was already working with FEMA, so why was a call needed?
Yes he was waiting for Biden to call and declare it a disaster that way the money comes out from Washington not the state!
Gregg is overseas. Stop politicking and fix the problem.
Y’all vote for these ppl to manage Texas even though they’ve shown you who they are OVER and OVER again LOL
They're more worried about complete nonsense. They want to live like the Old Testament.
Florida goes through this all the time and they don’t deal with this BS. GET IT TOGETHER CENTERPOINTLESS or the people will start making moves to get you OUT OF TEXAS. WERE TIRED OF YOUR LIES.
Florida is a mess with a crappy governor. No one can buy insurance in Florida anymore.
I dont know alot about politics and such, but I will say that Desantis had boots on the ground and power companies on stand by last hurricane season, especially during Ian.
I live in the Oak Ridge North/Imperial Oaks area of Montgomery County and Centerpoint's newly released map shows they've restored power to us and that isn't true. There is still a downed power line with a tree on it 2 blocks from my house. They are trying to document performance for future lawsuits. Don't let them get away with this.
Dan patrick not taking accountability... what a POS
Dem voters are pieces of the too and so are them cheating Astros....by my Black a$$ could care less nor could I care about Democrat voters suffering from what they voted for in Houston. LOL!!! That Lex Luthor looking Mayor a liar and good actor and that County Judge...HAHAHAHAHAHA!!!
Try the mayor.
Remember how the government works. Local to state than federal.
@@rude1527They all failed.
I know crying and sniveling trying to beg for handouts..😂
The mayor not talking to the county judge and the lieutenant governor waiting for the president to call. The visiting linesmen waiting for training and direction from Centerpoint and all this while the elderly and sick are sweltering in the heat. I hope people are getting the full picture of the "leaders.".
This Lt. Governor sound like he’s campaigning. Dude, you can’t call????? You don’t know how to reach the president? Does not say much of you as a Lt. Governor. That should literally be your first call PRIOR to the disaster. You sound petty and incompetent. Texas deserves better.
Dan is a doofus. He needs to call the CEO of Centerpointless, but can’t because it is a huge donor to the Republican Party. What an idiot.
@@DiabolikalFollikles Exactly!
Exactly! He is supposed to call the president, not sit and wait for the president to call. Patrick knows better, he's being petty. Gaslighting his supporters, that's all. He has one job and he can't do it. He chose pettiness over courage.
Oh look.....a MAGA that lies? I am shocked! Lt. Dan needs to get a new job. I am one of those business owners that is losing every day due to Centerpoint's inability to secure critical infrastructure.
The same people who want a small government and LESS government involvement are waiting for the federal government to rescue them. Now he says he has no problem with FEMA. I bet he doesnt.
Time to get tf outta Houston and move west every year same shi$t
What about our fabulous governor and fantastic cowboy mayor. The mayor gives the most flamboyant speeches.
I've been discussing this with several of my friends. I'm retired, and Wichita Falls is looking good.
Time to gtfo out of USA before Kurt Russell will appear as Jesus.
Dan Patrick is politicking. He needs to hold “Centerpointless” to account, but won’t because they are big donors to the Republican Party. The CEO recently admitted they had no reliable map tracking *before* Beryl. Hello?
Exactly true.
Who's in charge of Texas, last I checked it was Dan Patrick and Gregg Abbott.
Actually it's Greg Abbott governor Dan Patrick lieutenant governor. And since Greg Abbott is in China right now Dan Patrick is acting governor
Well right now they are focus on the Mexican and the Venezuelans along with the honduriians and Salvadorians this dudes always causing trouble but the system won't ban this nationalities to stop coming into USA
@@John-f8e2yAbbott’s not in China, he’s in Taiwan, South Korea and Japan as part of an economic development trip to persuade manufacturers to locate factories (especially semiconductors) in Texas. If you know anything about his stance, he sees China as adversarial to US & Texan interests.
@@christopherarmstrong2710 Oh yeah to say nothing of Biden's CHIP grant in Austin for Samsung, Abbot has truly been an exceptional stateman in Asia. I think he has a 110 million deal for gas with South Korea so yay? I wish he would see hurricanes as an economic problems they are.
@@John-f8e2ywho is in charge of Houston?
Remember the government goes local to the state then federal.
Dan Patrick the governor he needs to do some thing and stop trying to pass the buck
Pass me as many bucks you want, I’m broke.
But Biden won't call me. lol. Pathetic
He's not the governor. And why is it his fault that CenterPoint energy did not respond right.
Because that's his job as a governor @@John-f8e2y
@@John-f8e2yLt. Governor is the governor when the governor is not around
It’s not the President’s Fault!!!!
At all but this is the perfect time to make it political for Texas. Where is Abbott since we blaming.
Yep it's not the president's fault that this state chose to give their utilities full power to some rich guys and then decide not to have any type of regulations on them
Thank you. Where the hell was our governor? Oh yeah, out of the country. Try again, Dan.
Texas and cities along the Gulf coast both need way better disaster preparedness planning, organization, coordination, and resources because this recovery is a sh&t show. It ought to be mandatory and FEMA ought to have an "NTSB" for disaster response to troubleshoot and make recommendations so that these mistakes aren't repeated.
He said, she said. Take accountability. Take action. Make it right.
People outside of Texas better take note. Extra gas, generator beans and rice oatmeal extra water and cash in hand.
Centerpointlesss need to take note
GENERATOR BEANS
You’ll perish on day 1 trying to live on beans and rice in 90 degree heat. You need real food which is why people were out looking for it. Also there won’t be enough gas for all those generators. That’s supposed to be a short term fix. This is Day 5. For an outage this long, ppl have to evacuate but we couldn’t. It’s a Cat 1, so no one was off work and there was no contra flow.
Well we have governors who don't allow private friends to own the utility companies and also we have regulations that make sure that if something happens the government will take care of it and its people but Texas decided to opt out of that common Sense way of doing things when it comes to their utilities
I have all of that and now I’m second guessing my own preparations 😂! I have a 4,500 watt generator, 3,000 watt power station, everybody has their own personal power station, and 50 gallons of extra gas. I think I need to look into solar power and/or save to have a whole house generac hooked up to the house. If I was in Texas I’d be suffering when I run out of gas! My generators have saved me SO many times but that’s because the power always comes back on after 3 days at the most. I’ve never been tested for a week with my plans. I even fill my freezer with ice for the food so I don’t have to hook it up to the generator too long.
Let's be honest please this is turning into politics as usual the upper management at center point energy should be held accountable do not turn this into a political debate people's lives are at stake ❤😮❤😢❤😮❤
Who appointed center point?
Exactly. The CEO of Centerpointless admitted recently it had no effective/accurate map tracking system *before* Beryl. But Centerpointless is a huge donor for the republicans party, so Doofus Dan is laying blame on Biden. He’s an idiot.
Respectfully this is a political issue because this state is ran by Republicans who gave the power of no regulations to their buddies who run these power plants as opposed to other states who do not have privatized power stations and they do have regulations to follow which prevent things like this from happening and also have regulations to make sure that they are not allowed to continue to let you go without power for a length of time
@@Hippitidippity Agreed. In addition, these weather events aren’t “natural.” The environment is jacked and they know it, but deny because it’s profitable to do so. Hold onto your boot, because it’s going to get rowdy. Unfortunately, more storms are on the horizon. Vote.
200 people froze to death 3 years ago & the Ercot was awarded a new contract. These political THUGS stick together 😤
Not only the business hurts, also the people who have been looking for food driving around and using up all the gas which is another rare commodity. People don't know when they are going to run out of gas and be stranded just looking for food and gas. It perpetuates a vicious cycle.
Is why I don't like Texas is 2024 and still does not have a transportation system everything is exaggerating far away the weather is terrible the food is garbage nothing but Mexican and repeated restaurants not much choices cars suck too u don't even see a Ferrari in a blue moon the architecture is lame everything is one story and square design and now this BS with the old fashion electric grid
Why do people have only two or three days of food at home?
Lol dan talks about being incompetent😂😂. Did him or abbott take a good look in mirror?
@@caremotor86only thing you’re right about is the electrical grid! Get out of little York and southwest and you’ll see everything you’re complaining about 😂
@@Gator777mind you business ho
This business owner is 100% correct!! Residents should be madder than hell. This is bullshit. Prayers go out to all these people without power.
Sir your accountability. Not the President Sir. We're is the Governor? It's sad.
The president releases the funds for disaster relief. The president has not released the money. It is ultimately the president's responsibility to send the money needed for disaster relief. But he probably wants some groveling first!!
The Governor could have just stayed in vacation wherever he went. Texas doesn't need him. It never did.
They say they have to peep a lot due to the language. You think the person being interviewed would be the one cussing. The first curse word came from the reporter. 😂😂😂😂😂
Hahahahahahaha i thought the same thing.
He wanted to stir him up and got the exact reaction he wanted😂 . I got to get them views!
No Lt. ,The president doesn't live in Texas. You do!
Just imagine how we felt down here in Puerto Rico 6 Plus months without power and all Trump did was throw napkins at us
You're not a State.
They are a US territory though and they do vote in US elections @@Jessica-xx7nt
I felt for yall 🇵🇷
Puerto Rico do be having some beautiful women FrFrTho🤡🤡
Love Dem chicas. Gracias senor ✌️
@@Jessica-xx7nt does it really matter if there a state or not these people went through that six months I live in Houston 8 days been hell
Wow blaming the President for a Cat 1 hurricane. Cool
Governor Abbott is in Tokyo Japan since yesterday….. Are you serious?????
Let the finger pointing begin 👉🏼👈🏼👆🏼👇🏼
Why did you use white hands 😂?
Exactly, I believe the same thing happened during the winter storm “ someone was going to pay” ha ended up being us and still no charges- what a joke !
No changes
With food about to go bad, bust out the pit and start cooking
I cooked a mess of grub before the storm, got bags of ice, and ate like a queen w/o lights. We have a gas stove. No one went hungry.
I did😮
@@DiabolikalFolliklesya are lucky to have gas stoves. A lot of us have electric
Yeah that’s still a loss.
@@PoyTroy That’s ok. Keep a cooler and load up on ice. You can buy deli meats and fruit. Batteries, flashlights, fully -charged, external power banks (I have a Halo), candles, smart fans, lighters, etc. I’ll be ready next time. I’m going to invest in a generator. Because that heat ain’t no joke *and* some of my frozen meat thawed. We have to stay prepared. The environment is jacked up. It’s going to get worse. We’re going to have more storms. Please be prepared and be safe. 🙏🏾 🖤
It’s time to put power cables under ground
THAT IS THE PROBLEM.HOW DO YOU FIX THAT CABLES UNDER GROUD😂😂😂
It will take longer to repair and underground cables in a disaster for flood areas.
With what money with whom ‘s signature
We got hit by a derecho in STL a number of years ago. Some areas were without power for days. The next year the regional electric utility did a massive amount of tree clearance around power lines. In the succeeding years it has really helped. Might be a good start for y'all. All the best to you.
People EXTORTING and SNORTIN Houstonians Money up...
You ain’t never lied they all high
Minnesota has never had these type of issues. He Voters would remove this type of Governor ❤
Dont surpise when your utilities bill go up when they will increase price to cover recover efforts.
It definitely will! They changed us big time after hurricane Katrina! I’m in Northeast Louisiana and we only got a little rain during that hurricane. My little town was crazy busy for a year after that. I remember volunteering at the civic center and a huge shelter for 2 months during that time.
Dan Patrick fire him now
I can live in third world conditions, but I'm paying for first world. Thankfully my power is back on, but I spent three days camped out under a tree. I have friends who are still suffering. I really feel sorry for these business owners, and vulnerable residents. Imagine being 80 with a heart condition.
Yes This Does Raise Concern Why Are There Still Residents Without Power Centerpoint Better Have A Good Response This Is Sad
You’ll notice that Dan Patrick and Greg “cockroach legs” Abbott never have any tough words for Centerpoint’s CEO. Financial enrichment and exchange of money is very very likely the reason.
I can personally guarantee that cockroach legs never lost electricity and neither did Dan Patrick and you can imagine how many millions they make quarterly from their Centerpoint electricity preferred shares.
1:02 this guy a nut job
Abbot has a phone
And the numbers.
It gregs job
Because they're lining their pockets with State funds emergency funds and now they're trying to beg for handouts from the president
The question is how come these businesses don't have a power generator???!
Blame The President??? Typical BS
They (Republicans) choose to stay off the American power grid. Texas should just leave the US and invade Mexico 😅
ABSOLUTELY!!! 🤮🤮🤮🤮😈😈😈😈
so much sadness, desperation, & hopes for the poor hardworking American taxpayers in their hometowns ,cities & communities & the President / Gov . can't step up it's a cry for help when it's a crisis state of emergency ,😢🤦🤦🤦

He correct THIS IS HOUSTON, WE LIVE BASICALLY LIVE ON THE COAST HURRICANE COAST!! CENTERPOINTLESS
He wants to blame the federal government, but they always fights that they don't want federal help. lol
Exactly lol talking about seceding too. This your time to show you don’t need the federal government , right? But nope, blame the President. Politics suck.
And these people have the nerve to call others sheep... While being led to the slaughter by leadership who specifically refuse to connect to federal power grids.
Why did you throw away the food, everyone else has been cooking and giving food away
This is Bad Business.
Electrical problems in Texas? You don't say? Tell me more. lol
I'm sure Centerpoint ceo that akes 38 million a year for killing people basically will step in and help, also he picket 2 million the government gave him for repairs
Thank You Isiah for your reporting
To the people of Texas😮 has it ever occurred to you that no other state has to go through this but you.. not privatizing utilities and having regulations goes a long way in these times..
@@Hippitidippity complete bs. All power companies help each other in extreme weather events
@@bretthong6137 Your response has nothing to do with the comment.
Could've had a cook out..
When his business starts back up, I’ll be there because he’s real and I’m happy he’s speaking up
The restaurant i worked at was not grateful i showed up to work on the night the hurricane came. I aint working aftter hurricanes no more.
He said everything I’m thinking. “Break off some of that salary” to pay the linemen… they should have had all this “negotiated” ahead of time! Centerpoint execs seem corrupt. I bet if you scratch the surface you will find some weird money things going on there that delisted in all our lives getting wrecked. No work for a week, hot, melting, lost all the food in the fridge. Where I live there is not even cell service! This is unacceptable!
Good job Dan, CYA, Abbott should have canceled his trip, this storm was headed this way before you left
He speaking for all of us at this point in my neighborhood the gas stations are up they have been up two to 3 days and the street lights are up but our apartments are still without power their priorities are messed it up it doesn’t make any sense .
ITS YOUR JOB! Blame game!
I'm a Houstonian and this is not good for our city at all. How can we conduct daily business or host conferences and major events in our city if we have a reputation for having unreliable power? The residents are more important than business, but business is still very important. Aside of them not having enough trucks ready, it was reported that Centerpoint spends very little on vegetation management and now fallen trees are a major contributor to the current power outages. Centerpoint needs to get it together so that this doesn't happen again.
Starts with your own mayor buddy 😂
So we live in the Conroe and yesterday we had our power restored for most of the day and then around 4:00 pm our service was shut down again and said it would NOT be back on until the 15 of July in the evening about 5:00 pm, so was this the problem from the Hurricane or MAN'S HAND'S, MAKE THIS MAKE SENSE, ALSO one area close by the other night the street lights and traffic lights were working fine but the following day the whole area lights were shut off, off, No power, what was that from the Hurricane or MAN'S HAND'S, I'm not convinced, time for a real investigation / Lawsuit here in Texas and the affected surrounding areas in the Houston county 👍🏾
Montgomery Co should have Voted for Beto in 2022. He NEEDS to Run for Governor again in 2026.
Best news segment!!! Let the people say how they feel.
I feel so sorry for those business....you guys need to move further north.
No electricity is horrible. Local government officials have to get to work and coordinate with everyone who has power. Stop finger-pointing
My neighbor who lives behind me got her power restored Tuesday morning. It’s Friday and I’m still without power, I’m trying not to be petty
Just try to be patient I know it sucks considering I’m sure you lost all of the food in your fridge and freezer.
Welp, that business owner said it correctly. N tbh the money thing is really about who's got way more to sway the provider vs those trying to reach that level. Centerpoint is n has become a sell out to the highest bidder. Jsy not really surprised by it. Only amazed it took this long for fellow Houstonians to realize how they're really running their services. Houston we maybe a welcoming city but shouldn't let that be grounds to be pushed over like a stranger.
Why throw it away if it was going to waste then just give it away
Yeah give away too those who have no power either!🙄
CEO made 38 million last year 🤬🤬🤬
This is more evidence business owners and households should invest in heavy duty generators or at least a good solar generator to keep the light on through this type of bullchit. It will at least save you more money than what you could loose through this BS.
It’s hell in Houston with no AC…. Now I’m 30 imagine an older person or special needs or kids who can’t do much for themselves.
He kept it all the way real..
I loved the beeps
WE ALL GONNA EAT THIS BILL FROM CENTERPOINTLESS
Ok I'm with ya'll but this business owner should've had a big ass generator at his place 😢
why would they even throw it out? have a giant cookout or have a community cookout so you dont waste thousands of dollars of food. they had 12-36 hours before food they had in walk in fridges wouldve went bad.
@@sicklygazelle He may not be able to claim it as a loss if he used it.
I would recommend every business in Texas just use generators all of the time. What could be wrong with that? They don’t give out any emissions or anything, right?
I agree especially during the time frame of June 1st - November 30th which is Hurricane Season.
@@whimsicalhamster88gas generators do give out emissions. And electric generators that are fueled by the Sun don't always work if it's not a sunny day
It's the state responsible for directing center point how to proceed. The state just now calling out the national guard. The state and city of Houston didn't have a warroom prior to the storm
I hope they don't make us pay high electric bills because they can't handle a crisis. 😢
Gop blames everyone else for their lack of management.
Country and city are blue, and where was Dora? Out of town for days ahead of time - and it shows.
Dora is not a leader at all.
@@AntiWarTexan Blame everyone BUT the GOP Owned Government. Yeah. That's why nobody agrees with you.
A company that buys and sells high quality food ought to have a standby generator.
Man after Enron folks should ban together and getr some off grid power going..I know easier said than done but its worth it, those companies don't give a crap...Centerpoint should be sued and shut down for this..they are literally holding Houston Hostage!!!
Grocery stores have to have power or they have to toss their refrigerated and frozen sections, and can't get more until the power comes back on.
And they can't checkout customers except with cash.
Ever hear of generators?
This man speaks the TRUTH!
Does he? Sounds like a child who can't take responsibility for his states actions to give power companies complete control to determine if they want to keep their equipment up to date. But if you like being led like sheep to the slaughter, keep doing what you're doing!

I wish they could sue Centerpoint for the lost revenue
I've been out of work for a week my paycheck is going to be super weak hopefully I can cover groceries next week
Businesses please buy yourself backup generators so you can still run your business quit trusting the city in situations like this
You're electrical company and provide your energy is corrupt You're trying to screw out of state workers and keep lining their pockets while you suffer
WOW so sad for Houston Texas
Be sure to support your local small businesses when the power comes back they desperately need it.
He’s right, it’s all about the money w/ these leaders. And why is this always reactive & not proactive?!
Oh yes the governor of Texas, Joe Biden
I’m so sorry for good people that are working hard for support there families and going through this
Centerpoint is totally mismanaged. For profit rather than electrical reliability. CEO and his whole mismanagement team needs to go.
He said what we all was feeling. Yep it's money. Those linemen know THEIR worth just pay those linemen get us all power
Keep voting red and you'll keep getting what you get. Texas Toasted I can smell it up here in Colorado.
They also are not allowing them to work overtime! It’s always about money!
