Exactly.
Sen. Ted Cruz just was discovered flying with his family to Cancun because they lost power and water like the rest of us.
Had to return in disgrace a few hours ago and is currently still not able to offer a consistent excuse for abandoning his constituents.

In each media interview he gives a different shade of the story as he tries to walk it back. He's got to be lying in at least all but one scenario he explains it as.
Definitely not good enough for Texas.
It's as if ... being affected by this terrible doesn't make someone an expert on situation since whatever is happening with the grid is quite far from those affected.
But it's not like there being differing opinions means that truth and falsehood cease to exist. Someone is lying, specifically Fox News and the governor of Texas are about alternative energy. Some policies really were problematic. etc.
And I'm sorry the diverse people of Texas have to suffer this. If one policy makers were the one who had to freeze in the dark but that's life.
