It would only take one nuke detonated 100 miles above USA to devastate the electrical grid and our way of life.

EMP attack could result in death of 90% of Americans in one year, according the the Congressionally appointed EMP Commission.

Obama DELIBERATELY LEFT US VULNERABLE TO THIS, even though preventive measures (protecting grid) would cost less than $3 billion for the whole nation.

This was TREASON

President Trump is attempting to correct this vulnerability as fast as possible, but faces opposition from the swamp.

WE ALL need to let our Congressmen and Senators know we are watching them to see if they take SWIFT ACTION on protecting the electrical grid. This is INEXCUSABLE.

why would the big elites who own all these industries and stores and make billions/trillions selling to Americans want that consumer base destroyed, which would also destroy the world's economy...??

that's the only hope, besides God, for me...that the rich want to stay rich.

I have seen some here suggest an EMP detonation would not be as devastating as you suggest. I have a friend who was an admiral (only what...216 or so of them). He worked with Petraeus on the surge as a logistical guy. One day we got to talking about EMPs and his comment was that the detonation of just one would be a horrible event. People are naive if they think it would be relatively easy to restart your car, furnace, tv, radio, power grid etc. if one was detonated over the US.
