California regulators have unanimously ordered an investigation into a dozen deliberate power outages that plunged millions of people into the dark last month.

The California Public Utilities Commission voted Wednesday at a short meeting in San Francisco after testimony from people pleading for regulation, planning and leadership.

Pacific Gas & Electric, known as PG&E, instituted multiple rounds of outages meant to prevent its equipment from igniting wildfires in windy weather and affected nearly 2.5 million people throughout Northern California.

This is like a skulk of foxes investigating who raided the hen house.

Let's step back and look at the big picture in the Socialist Democratik Republic of California.

They're going to take over the energy industry there, and run it by the State.
Like Venezuela, what could possibly go wrong?
