SEAN HANNITY (HOST): Our friend Joe Bastardi, he said -- he put out an article -- he's going to join us in a minute -- "Add yet another aspect to the assault on the Texas deep freeze." And how fossil fuels are now also being blamed for what happened with climate change and global, etcetera.

But he pointed out the cold before the five day stretch of this worst winter weather event in Texas history, which, to his credit, he got in touch with us and I got him in touch with both Governor Abbott and Senator Ted Cruz. And both were working, you know, 'round the clock in the lead up to this. They've got specific details as to everything that was coming, as some had downplayed what was on its way. But, you know, when you have a model saying it's going to be 40 and it's 30 degrees in a place like Dallas and you're having snow in places where they don't have plows and sanders and salt machines, etcetera. But, I mean, it's pretty unbelievable here.
