While hundreds of thousands of Americans shivered in the dark this week thanks to winter storm power outages, guess what energy source came to the rescue? The same one the radical left has been trying to destroy for decades - good old-fashioned COAL.

As green energy advocates watched their precious wind turbines freeze solid and solar panels disappear under blankets of snow, coal-fired power plants stepped up to keep the lights on across multiple states hit by the devastating winter weather. It's almost like reliable, proven energy sources actually work when Americans need them most.

This latest energy crisis perfectly exposes the dangerous fantasy that is the Democrats' green energy agenda. While they spent the last four years under Biden pushing their climate cult policies and trying to shut down coal plants, Mother Nature just delivered a reality check that should wake up every American to the fraud being perpetrated by environmental extremists.

Trump's Energy Dominance Vindicated Again

President Trump's "Drill, baby, drill" agenda and commitment to American energy dominance looks more brilliant by the day. While Democrats wanted to shut down the very power plants that just saved lives during this winter emergency, Trump understood that energy security means having ALL options on the table - not just the trendy green garbage that fails when you need it most.

Energy Secretary appointments under this administration have consistently celebrated reliable energy sources, recognizing that virtue signaling about climate change means nothing when your family is freezing in the dark. Coal, natural gas, and nuclear power don't care about your feelings - they just work, 24/7, regardless of weather conditions.

"This is exactly why President Trump fought so hard to preserve American coal and traditional energy sources. When the chips are down and lives are on the line, you need power sources that actually function."

The irony is palpable: the same energy source Democrats have demonized as "dirty" and tried to regulate out of existence just proved to be the cleanest solution to keeping Americans warm and safe during a natural disaster.

How many more wake-up calls do Americans need before they realize the green energy scam is about control, not climate? When your family's survival depends on keeping the heat on, suddenly those coal plants don't look so evil after all.

Finally some honest reporting on this green energy disaster!

This is exactly what we warned about! You can't run a reliable power grid on wishful thinking and solar panels that get covered in snow.

Absolutely right. Here in Texas we learned this lesson the hard way in 2021.

This is why we need an 'all of the above' energy strategy that prioritizes reliability over virtue signaling. When it's -20 degrees, people need heat and electricity that actually works, not empty promises about saving the planet.

My grandfather worked in the mines for 40 years and always said coal would be there when you need it most. Guess he was right! Meanwhile my neighbor's Tesla has been sitting dead in the driveway for two days because the charging station froze up.

Does anyone know the actual numbers on how much coal generation had to be brought online? I'd love to see the data on wind turbine failures during this storm.

From what I saw, wind was operating at less than 15% capacity in the affected regions. Coal plants had to ramp up to 85% to compensate.
