On the menu today: I hope you had a wonderful Christmas. I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but it appears someone is attacking the electrical power grid of the Seattle area, which comes after a series of similar incidents elsewhere in the Pacific Northwest as well as in Florida. And the FBI never caught the guy who attacked the electrical grid down in North Carolina earlier this month. Shooting up a power substation is apparently the latest fad.
Electric Boogaloo
Picture it: It’s Christmas, you’re about to prepare a big meal for the whole family, and the power goes out — all the lights, the refrigerator, your computer and cellphone charger, the works. That happened this year for a lot of families in the Seattle area, but it wasn’t wind, snow, or bad weather; someone shot up their local power substation.
The initial Pierce County Sheriff’s Department public statement was . . . curious:
Today at 05:26 am we received a call of a burglary to the Tacoma Public Utilities Substation at 22312 46th Ave E.
Deputies arrived on scene and saw there was forced entry into the fenced area. Nothing had been taken from the substation, but the suspect vandalized the equipment causing a power outage in the area.
Deputies were notified of a second burglary to the TPU substation at 8820 224th St E which also had forced entry with damage to the equipment. Nothing was taken from this site either.
At 11:25 we were notified by Puget Sound Energy that they too had a power outage this morning at 02:39 am. Deputies are currently on scene at this facility where the fenced area was broken into and the equipment vandalized.
At this time deputies are conducting the initial investigation. We do not have any suspects...

I hope other substations are getting security cameras installed & maybe some great, big dogs. Security does seem awfully lax at these places.
Just the kind of crisis that a power hungry cabal bent on the fundamental transformation of the United States would love to not go to waste.
Yep life is a bitch. May as well lie down, enjoy it as best
you can. The world is ever changing and has been since
time began. It will keep changing for those occupying it.

Obviously stochastic terry wrist and his band of anti power troops.
Yes. I agree.
So they are angry at the world instead of being mad at the h.s. bully.
This is what happens when everyone is allowed to " be whomever they want to be.

They have never been able to “figure out” who planted those “explosives” in DC because they planted them, IMO.
False flag to justify further intrusions on our rights.
ELF, Earth Liberation Front....................
We have decades of work on our electrical infrastructure in “the pipeline”.
Tons of work, unrealistic timelines and goals, undermanned and old...
insane enviroweenies
ANTIFA?
The Dims are stupid in their tactics. They’re sending their goons to mess up power stations before they’re done making the masses switch to driving EV’s.
It’s Obama and his green energy policies to shutter coal plants. In Tennessee and elsewhere in the South, gone are the days when TVA have back up capacity to keep up on demand in extreme cold/heat events. Reliance on solar/wind is now the goal
“these embedded terrorists”
One of the stories to come out of the Buffalo Blizzard was the looting at a Family Dollar store on the East side.
However, there was also a video on Rumble filmed in Lackawanna on the south side of the city where the local Arab community was defending THEIR business from potential looters by firing guns in the air.
I love a Happy ending to a story around the holidays.
Russians.
Which means it’s not Russia.
With just a little study and twenty men I could knock out an entire state’s electric grid for months.
Our electric grid is very fragile.
The big transformers are vulnerable targets and have long lead times to replace.
The Inter-state grid interconnections sit out in the open and breakers can be taken out with a rifle.
If Russia wanted to take down our grid it would be down.
Bingo. I think global warming scum bags, might be part of it too.
I know, it is so obvious. No one in our lying foul government even mentions it.
