Unfortunately, I have a family who just wants to stay here in the chaos when it starts. Absolutely suicidal, God not make us intentionally to be foolish stupid people or things that are very abominable to him if not worse.
As the family leader, it's your duty to club them over the head and drag them to the country for their own safety. Preferably sooner, rather than later.
No. A single EMP could cause great damage to about one-third of the nation, but some electrical infrastructure has already been updated and protected. Damage would vary, with some regions having total power loss, but others anywhere from 20% to 50% power loss.
End result would be significant destruction, chaos and economic damage.
If detonated in the upper atmosphere (somewhere above 70K ft), one thermonuclear bomb can deploy an EM burst strong enough to kill the power grid for the whole U.S., if detonated over the Midwest. Most of Canada and about half of Mexico would go down, too.
That was DARPA's estimate they gave the U.S. military back in the 90's. Our power grid is operating on technology developed over 60 yrs ago and hadn't been upgraded or hardened against EM interference since. I remember that Safety Stand-down well. It left us all a little shook that, with all the tech advances made up to then, that we would still be left so vulnerable to that. It's even more sobering to me that it's almost 30 yrs later, and we still haven't attempted to harden our global powergrids.
But that wasn't all that Kennedy was actually referring to here. If the whole part of that conversation would've been played, you would've heard her go on to explain that we are in a time frame where another Carrington Event could happen.
About every 150-175 yrs, the sun emits a very large burst of EM energy. The last time was the Carrington Event. It was so powerful, it literally fried to char telegraph operators in their seats, melted the telegraph wires, and set while sections of every telegraph operating country on earth that took the brunt of the waves. No country was left unaffected.
There are 9 super large power transformers scattered around the U.S. that help transmit our electricity around the country. It takes yrs of manufacturing to make one, none of them are made here in the U.S., they cost tens of millions of USD each, and it takes months of planning to move one into position and get it on line. They're so large, they can't fit under bridges or overpasses, so just the transporting of them over land can take weeks. And none of them are hardened against EM energy bursts. If even one goes down, it will affect tens of millions of people, and will take too long to replace to keep people from looting and killing each other.
And the U.S. Dept of Energy admits they can't do anything for us, and that to harden something against a Carrington Event level EM burst, it would've had to have been engineered into the manufacturing process. It's not as simple as building a Faraday cage around them all.
I would implore everyone to read One second after. A book about this very scenario. The author interviewed the top EMP expert at the pentagon and its forward is by Newt Gingrich. There are 4 books in the series and they are fantastic reads, but also grim in the reality if it were to occur.
We've heard this before. Hey if it happens we will be free at last. Can't control a nation without the electronics, vehicles and the ability to move around.
--Q
Any idea what this Black Eye is or could be?
Another user here posted a link to this possibly being the 'Black Eye'.
A starlink tumbler?
This made me laugh like crazy
Just bought one!!!!!! Doing a lot of around town driving and don't get a chance to keep a hot cup of coffee handy!!!!
The logo on it lol
Lol, missed that. I woke up and this was the first thing I looked at. Brain was not functioning.
Happens to me too :)
Can you link this Q post for reference? Thanks, Fren
Boom.
Cities I can see being chaotic but the further you get from one the better the situation.

Any EMPfags out there? Can one EMP knock out the entire US?

Imagine having a money printing machine and not thinking about these things.
These fckin retards have us all with our pants around our ankles.
Their is a lot of easy preps,you can do to help.
In the right place it can render most.of the nation inoperable. What good is a phone if the providers shit is gone.
Thanks

CIA is the ones that will do it!
