Winter Warning to Biden Administration, Energy Shortages Ahead
"I want to underscore this we touched on it earlier but now there's more information From our Friends at what watts up with that It's a great sight Winter warning to Biden administration New England energy shortages ahead By Robert Bradley junior natural gas shortages and reliability concerns in New England on either short term nor unanticipated ISO New England and the federal energy regulatory commission have for many months called attention to the very real reliability issues that are likely to face the region in the coming winter months due to insufficient supply of natural gas The New England power plants generated an estimated 4.18 million metric tons of CO2 and January 2022 up from 2.77 metric tons With a region's heavier reliance on oil accounting for most of the difference In other words because they're not getting enough natural gas Government intervention creates emergencies and shortages unlike self interested transactions when a true free market This was true a century ago where World War I planning and it remains true today

"And I'm susannah Palmer in the Bloomberg newsroom. Hundreds of migrants at least some bust to the Big Apple by Texas governor Greg Abbott lined up outside Lincoln hospital in The Bronx today. This to get healthcare coverage, food and other items, including school supplies and free phones. The event organized by the city hospital system was built as a resource and family fun day for migrants and their children many of whom have come to New York City in droves in recent weeks. Greg Abbott, governor of Texas, said today that it's a crisis for the nation, not just border states. We need our fellow Americans to understand how significant how prolific the challenge is that we're dealing with. We're in Buffett's bid to boost his big stake in Occidental Petroleum, even further isn't expected to serve as a prelude to a full takeover of the energy company, at least for now. In a regulatory filing on Friday, the federal energy regulatory commission said that Buffett's Berkshire Hathaway had received permission to buy up to 50% of the driller's shares. The news stoked speculation that Berkshire could be gearing up to acquire accidental, but The Wall Street Journal citing people close to the matter reports Buffett has not informed Occidental of any plans to acquire a controlling stake in the company.

"To avoid questions of bias or races to the courthouse, Congress replaced these with a random lottery system in 1988. The federal statute governing the lottery provides a ten day window to challenge an agency's action, any circuit where a lawsuit is filed during that time has an equal chance of being chosen. After the ten days conclude, the judicial panel on multi district litigation, clerk pulls a ping Pong ball out of a drum to determine where the case will be heard. The lottery has been used in two other cases this year, one involved a ruling from the national labor relations board and the other an order from the federal energy regulatory commission. Typically a quiet bureaucratic process, it's rare that the lottery system is used in high profile cases with such far reaching consequences as the government's vaccine requirement. The osha vaccine mandate, which is expected to cover 84 million workers, says that companies with more than 100 employees must either require their workers to get vaccinated against COVID-19 by January 4th, or require them to wear masks and undergo regular testing. The rule includes exceptions for medical and religious reasons, as well as for employees who work from home or only outside. The Biden administration says it believes it has the authority to issue this kind of mandate through osha given the ongoing pandemic. But the agency's track record on emergency rules is shaky. It has issued emergency rules ten times since it was created in 1971 of the 6 that have been challenged in court only one has survived. Experts say there is precedent for the agency acting to protect workers during broader public health crises, Wendy parmet, a northeastern university law professor who focuses on public health law, noted that osha issued regulations around how companies should handle HIV also a communicable disease. We don't have anything quite comparable. We have not had a pandemic of this kind of severity since osha has been created, but it did respond to HIV, she says. The mandate is very defensible, and I think it should be seen as with an osha purview. Parmet called the conservative lawsuit's arguments that the osha rule is unconstitutional, shocking, and quite troubling. If judges ultimately agree with that argument, she says, that begins to call into question many workplace laws, and many other kinds of regulations that we take for granted to keep people safe. Agency officials say the current political climate has likely influenced the challenges to the vaccine rules. COVID-19 restrictions have become highly politicized in the past two years. Conservative politicians have also challenged the Biden administration's vaccine requirement for a healthcare workers, as well as mask mandates and schools and cities around the country. What osha's doing isn't all that radical, but given the extreme positions Republican politicians and legislators are taking right now, it puts osha in the national spotlight in terms of the current controversy, former deputy assistant secretary of labor for osha, Jordan barret told time in September, when Biden first called for the agency to issue an employer vaccine mandate. This partisan environment likely affected how many groups filed lawsuits over the ocean mandate, in total, 34 cases were filed in all 12 regional circuit courts by conservative groups and liberal ones, including labor unions. The unions were targeting liberal circuits, meaning circuits with a majority of judges or a near majority of judges who were appointed by democratic presidents. Says Murata. While they were also challenging the mandate by doing so in circuits that were thought to be more favorable to Democrats, they guaranteed there was at least a chance that consolidated cases would be heard by a liberal leaning court. All 34 cases will now be transferred to the 6th circuit..

"This is the bane of their existence. I think the texas attorney general should get with the health insurance companies send them some civil investigative demands and find out. What's going on with that. I think that would be a great way to help. Republicans democrats and everybody else agree especially with this major increase in palliative care. We're going to be seeing coming up in the next decade or so. We really need to set ourselves up for success to be able to handle that with all the retirement. That's going to be going to be happening with the boomers here. It's already starting and it's going to be ramping up not gonna go away. If finally before i let you go. I want to talk a little bit about some other things going on in texas specifically with environmental considerations your power grid and we hear that they want to take this money and build a wall but they're not investing in their own infrastructure. Is there any role at the attorney. General's office can play in helping. Solve these problems for texans. Because i'm seeing the the great freeze the huge heatwaves it's It's getting out of control. Sure alison certainly the attorney. General zoos and defense lawsuits sends investigative demands. And things like that. But generally. you're the general counsel if you will of a large entity called the state of texas so it would have been a good general counsel policy to remind the legislature that in two thousand eleven the last time we had one of these you know nearly catastrophic cold snaps where the the power grid failed and it did happen. In two thousand eleven there was a four hundred page federal energy regulatory commission report that sort of warned in texas. Look if you insist on having a separate grid at least make modernisation and winterization priority and and you know it sat on the shelf for a decade until it happened again so i would say one attorney. General ought to have some sort of a nosy oversight over what the leading issues of the day our And and again you can't pass laws on your own but you're the lawyer state so you should have a say. Just like a general counsel would in a well run corporation. The second thing is now that the catastrophe has occurred and deaths and property insurance on a just horrific multibillion dollar scale because people's pipes burst and their homes are uninhabitable and insurance companies are saying well maybe an act of god. I don't know that we're going to cover that one. So people are literally like at within the attorney general needs to be involved in that as a consumer protection issue number one against the property insurers who are playing fast and loose with their duty to cover these losses and secondly the attorney general should be on the side of the rate payers and homeowners when it comes to these lawsuits and these questions for example. mister paxton has already ruled that urquhot.

"Once upon a time there lived a princess called rapunzel. The long had you know anyway. She was stuck in tower waiting for prince to come save her but really he has time for that. She ordered a ladder with prime one day delivery. She will start to hairdressing empire. Thank you perfect. Which by the white and the prince while cares prime. Put everything okay so a few weeks ago. You were telling me off-line about an effort to kind of fix this. That was made way back in. I think it was two thousand five energy bill. So what was that. And why didn't it work. So the energy policy active two thousand and five established a new function a new federal authority for transmission lines citing and. It's a dual authority between the department of energy and the federal energy regulatory commission where the department of energy is tasked to do a study every three years of specifically economic congestion. Right so where. There's a market opportunity here right where there's too high prices and identify areas where there is electric economic congestion as national interest electric transmission. Carter's or an i. E. t. c.'s. After the department of energy declares these anti atc's the federal energy regulatory commission now has backstop citing. Authority in those corridors. What is backstop so there is still the state process that we've been discussing is the first process right so developer with other transmission line would go to state citing commissions public utility commissions deciding boards in propose their line and if they're line falls in a natural interest electric transmission carter and isn't approved by the states than the federal energy regulatory commission has this backstop authority to essentially overrule right to consider it themselves. And say no actually. This line is important because it is in the national interest rate so the attempt here is to recognize that states are often constrained to only considering the state interest in so social government considering the national interest in line is a national interest than the federal government should set it. So you could say. I dunno main. It's like we need this power in southern new england urban centers. that's our environmental goals diplomacy with canada. Like we're given the thumbs up and your little main concerns are not going to be allowed to trump them. And that's how we do things. I mean sometimes in america right. It's a federal system and states have a lot of autonomy but we also decide certain things are of national interest and so that would be vision. It sounds great. But i assume we wouldn't be doing this episode. If a two thousand five law had solved the problem. So i intentionally misspoke. Because what i said why the states deny it but that is actually not what the law specifically says or how the law has been interpreted and hence the rep during discussion. There's an argument. That congressional intent was that it should be this denial right that of the state says no. The federal government can override but what the energy act language says is delays more than a year. The court interpretation of that is that it's a delay only so for state says no that is a determination and so the federal government cannot override a know. It can only override a no decision so in theory. This could speed decisions but at the state says no then. This line can't get built. Which is exactly what has happened. And this is where our textualist s- judiciary have may be operated at odds with. I don't know good sense. I think it's pretty clear. I mean you know you can have a view about how judges ought to do things. And how the law ought to work. But like the goal here was to create a system where the federal government would do preemption and we would build more interregional transmitter and the insistence on construing the words that narrowly that strictly has been that we have not infect had federal preemption..

"That when he was in the house. It was his job to protect religious liberties. It's not his job anymore so now he can protect civil liberties while this is not leadership as a business leader. It's his job to support inclusion. Because it's good for business as republican leader. It was his job to oppose it because these protections are bad for bigots. This just shows you one of the benefits of term limits. I think they get to hire former legislatures. Legislators who have relationships with existing law makers and now if he really supports this he's going to get to some policy work through a back door. I'm a little more skeptical. I think he's tried to project. He's not trying to protect religious liberty trying to protect his paycheck. What happened in kalamazoo. Was that the one member of the kalamazoo. The commission is aeronautics. The executive director of equality michigan. Which is the leading groups. Supporting the lgbtq rights movement. Along with pharaonic will michigan. She got the city council. The basically withdraw financial support for chatfield employer so in order to save that money and perhaps save his job. All of a sudden think chatfield a change of heart. And i think any support he gives to the amendment to the elliot larsen. Civil rights act will be purely lip-service. He's not going to lift one finger to really get passed yeah. I don't think it's even a voluntary statement on his part. I think you're right that the threat of losing the funding from kalamazoo which is an investment. The city makes because this organization is supposed to bring you know job development and spur economic activity in the area They're gonna take away that investment than you know the organization is going to say okay. Now it's time to do a little something about this going into the business community. As a business leader he is now in a sector that supports it and But like i said this is not. This is not leadership. In any way i think people are always glad to hear high profile. People give lip service and even dana nessel made some comments on on twitter saying that. She appreciated what he said. Choose take that for what. It's worth dana. is it normally that diplomatic. But i think she's being nice in this case. The national debate a month ago was about the electoral college. Now it's all about the electrical grid. Okay that's a bit of a stretch but give me give me a break. The republicans who have turned texas into a deregulated paradise for businesses in the name of prosperity have found themselves bitten in the bud by their randy and utopia and the ripple effects are even impacting michigan. All of the electrical problems in texas have meant that there are now part shortages at auto plants all around the nation because of the interconnection between the states for the the auto industry. The the whole thing just shows that government regulation if done properly makes a whole lot of sense in texas they decided we're not going to be regulated by the federal government by firkh the federal energy regulatory commission. And we're not going to really regulate the utilities ourselves. We're just gonna leave it up to them to do the right thing. While the utilities being the creatures that they are decided instead of winterizing and spending all that money necessary to protect their equipment to keep them operating in a once in a century storm they decided. Well it's going to increase profit margin if we just go on the cheap so they bought the cheapest windmills they could. They didn't get them winterized. They didn't winterized their gas plants. They didn't winner is the nuclear plants. So now they've got no have a huge crisis that's going to cost more. They say that any hurricane that has ever hit texas. It's a huge natural disaster and the idea of trying to blame it on. Windmills is just so bizarre. You know what the two states that use the highest percentage of windmill generated. Energy are the two dakotas last time. I checked it is bitter cold in the two choas every damn year. Denmark is basically a wind energy haven. Michigan's got a lot of wind. Energy are windmills are still pumping the differences. You can winner. Is the things in terms of the materials you use for the for the blades as well as for some of the internal structures as well windows are very reliable if you're prepared for what happened. In texas is increasing the enemy. Happy more and more climate change more and more impacts with extreme weather. It is just it's a classic example of why something along the lines of the green new deal make sense when they're trying to say degree new deal would destroy us you know. They're destroying themselves the decisions they make. I thought it was clear that texas was a failed state. When the west fertilizer company facility blew up and killed people and destroyed the school that was next to it the nursing home in the apartment buildings and all of these surrounding businesses and places were destroyed. Hundred and fifty people hurt. I can't remember how many people killed texts. this didn't require any liability insurance for storing hazardous materials so that company only had a million dollars of insurance. Well that's not gonna even cover the school. Texas had not done any enforcement of their already very low safety standards. They had in place for hazardous materials. And so if that didn't tell you the texas approach to regulation was a really bad approach. It really should have and i you know conservative. Republicans like to say that the market will decide if a company is doing something wrong. That company will go out of business. Well that's not how it works. It really isn't how it works You know the electrical grid a windmill farms. These things aren't going to go out of business because they don't invest in weather protection if texas do the right thing. I talked about the texas leaders. Who are making these decisions if they did. The right thing in got up owned it rather than go out on a pr campaign and say the wind turbines are the problem. The green new deal is a problem or they go to cancun and look at the governor. Did the governor went out and said well a boy. we appreciate. Joe biden's partial approval of our disaster plan. You know joe biden approved almost everything they asked for. They follow the process of evaluating the individual counties application for the individual part of need. Which is you know. You can get some money for a car for rent. That kind of thing instead of owning what they did. And saying you know what We hedged our bets on this weather protection and we were wrong they go out and they blame joe biden and they blame the wind turbines and so that part of texas is not going to change but the demographics of texas they are changing. And perhaps with the convergence of the climate change conversation and the disaster that you have here the failure of government here the very poor optics of ted cruz just taken off. Perhaps that will make a big difference in the next five to ten years. I think governors are beginning to find out to the competence matters in running your state whether you are gavin newsom in california your greg abbott in texas or your andrew cuomo in new york incompetence and people don't want that ultimately it's not about ideology with most voters about getting the job done being there when you are needed and doing it right which is why governor whitmer has continued to enjoy very high approval ratings throughout this entire horrific pandemic because the majority people michigan thinks. He's doing the right thing. The other thing. I think they're gonna learn in texas down the road and not too far down. The road. is that the deregulation of their insurance. Industry is going to mean. A lot of homeowners are going to submit claims that are going to be rejected because the insurance industry was allowed to insert all sorts of loopholes into policies. So that.
