America’s power grid is a fragile system that holds us all together, without it, we would be plunged into chaos. The American and Soviet government has tested the possible outcomes of this type of attack and are taking action to protect our most sensitive military infrastructures. Unfortunately for everyone else, it’s back to the stone age and the surviving under extreme conditions. Consumer Research reports:
The US and Soviet militaries learned first-hand of the potential consequences of a major EMP event when conducting high altitude nuclear tests over 50 years ago. In 1962 for example, a U.S. military exercise dubbed “Operation Starfish” exploded a 1.4 megaton nuclear warhead 240 miles above Johnson Island in the Pacific Ocean. Alarmingly, the resulting EMP field caused street lights to blow out and affected telephone and radio communications in Hawaii, 900 miles away. Fearing its use as a “first strike” weapon that would take out critical military command and control infrastructure, both superpowers spent the following decades hardening their military apparatuses against such an attack. Our civilian infrastructure, however, has remained largely unshielded from severe electromagnetic events. Much of the knowledge on the effects of EMPs has been classified due to its national security implications.
In March 2016 the United States Government Accountability Office released a report on critical infrastructure protection relating to the threat posed by electromagnetic risks. The paper further supports our findings that, while progress is being made to assess vulnerabilities and improve grid security, the United States is unprepared for the effects of an EMP and more work is necessary to protect the American public. Despite the complexity of the relationships between our critical infrastructure assets, it is clear from the Commission Report as well as other experts’ opinions that our Electric Power Infrastructure represents a center of mass of the threat from EMP. This stems largely from our dependence on electricity and electronic control systems that enable or control our other critical infrastructure assets. George H. Baker, who served on the Committee explained:
“Among the critical infrastructure sectors, EMP risk is highest for electric power grid and telecommunication grids… These infrastructures are the most vulnerable due to their organic long lines. And they are also the most critical to the operation and recovery of the other critical infrastructure sectors… If we have to pick one infrastructure to protect, the top choice would be the electric power grid.”19The following source outlines the probability of an EMP attack as well as the immediate and lingering consequences of an attack against America as well as known countries with the ability of deploying such a bomb against us.

It’s a good thing. No more Obama, Muslims, transgender freaks. We can go back to horse$#%&!@*and gun powder. Eye for an eye. Start stocking up on seeds too plant gardens. Bows and arrows. Putin can and will knock it out. He said it’s war if killery gets in.
Good, that means there will be no more progressive democrats.

The 3% are ready!
Gee to quote a SNL saying, “Jane You ignorant$#%&!@* First of all anyone remember the Tempest Program? It was a program in the government to harden equipment against Nuclear Blast in the 1980’s. A good portion of that equipment is still in operation. Additionally, havent T”ruth in Action” checked up on Preappers? They represent over 20% of the population. This article has been out since 1989:https://standeyo.com/News_Files/NBC/EMP.protection.html So to say 90% wouldnt survive my guess is somewhat of an exageration in my opinion. Many of us out there have equipment already protected. Yes it will be bad but it is also preventable too.Some of these folks wearing tin foil hats may not be off base either…
those figures sound like what sertan people want to have happen . think about it whats the agenda the un has put forth new world order is not a joke its an actual plan of action to depopluiate not just the usa . And yea for those who do manage to suvive . it would be like going back too the 1800s at the best. and few have the knolage or skills too handle that . we have forgoten those things .
First of all they’re not our leaders they are elected officials meaning they work for us
OMG!..I’m gonna..gonna..gonna have another cup a coffee
What do you suggest we do?
When I was briefed on this I was advised that it didn’t matter if the device was turned on or if it was off. It’s a very large pulse of energy and the pulse lasts for a long duration of time
