Is there anything the Biden administration can't inject its wokester politics into?
The latest news is a disturbing report from an industry-watcher using federal data, pointing out that attacks on America's power grid are up 71%.
According to the Wall Street Journal, which got a leaked copy of the report:
Physical attacks on the U.S. power grid rose 71% last year compared with 2021 and will likely increase this year, according to a confidential industry analysis viewed by The Wall Street Journal.
A division of the grid oversight body known as the North American Electric Reliability Corporation found that ballistic damage, intrusion and vandalism largely drove the increase. The analysis also determined that physical security incidents involving power outages have increased 20% since 2020, attributed to people frustrated by the onset of the pandemic, social tensions and economic challenges.
The NERC division, known as the Electricity Information Sharing and Analysis Center, or E-ISAC, recorded the sharp increase in incidents in 2022, driven in part by a series of clustered attacks on infrastructure in the Southeast, Midwest and Pacific Northwest.

There was also, where it could be found, an odd focus on "white supremacists" conducting the attacks, and yes, there have apparently been a couple, as if the Russians or Chinese or other malevolent actors, such as Mexico's cartels, wouldn't dream of disrupting U.S. power grids for their own purposes. The reports seen, which were oddly coordinated, all quoted experts who cited white supremacists in one form or another as being at the root of the problem.

White supremacists now the scapegoat du jour.
Enviro-Nazis and Antifa types are more likely to be the PERPS!
Keep believing the gov’t narrative on these stories.
I can substantiate that these attacks are indeed happening in many parts of the country.
In one incident a guy who knew exactly what to do was found inside the substation shutting down the breakers/switches/fuses by a local engineer. Local SWAT had to respond and the story never made it to the press.
The number of targeted groups is not small, but this white supremacy stuff is really classic Niemoller, “First they came for the Jews ...”
A lot of white people are sitting at home thinking, “Well, I’m not a white supremacist. And my friends are not white supremacists. And I don’t like white supremacists. So, if the government wants to hunt down white supremacists, I guess I don’t have a problem with it ...”
But, of course, the “supremacist” part of it is insignificant. There is a race war. And all white people are being hunted. I don’t think that it is an overstatement. White, Christian, Western European culture is being expunged. That’s white supremacy.
All this white hate reminds me of the insane Russophobia that is being pushed daily by the media propagandists and their Dimwit enablers. The hate is going to get someone killed.

Black Liberation Theology (like 0bama’s Rev Wright) also espouses getting rid of white people.
Some of the attacks could be a couple of drunk rednecks shooting up a remote substation, others could enviro-nazis and antifa types.
I think some also could be drug cartels, Russian, Chinese or Islamic terrorists in the country to commit acts of sabotage.
Remember we are in a proxy war with Russia and their allies what better way to distract the USA but create chaos inside the country that blames everything on White Supremacists.
I’m still thinking this is that uber left environmentalist group ELF under another name. They openly used to speak of sabotaging power plants and derailing trains.
Why not blow food plants also? PETA involved also?
Just a thought.
They figured that scapegoating 65% of the population was a bridge too far, so they now scapegoat a subset of the 65%. Nobody has ever seen or identified that subset. The closest they can get is people who watch Tucker, read American Thinker, or protest abortion. They are salivating over the prospect rounding up all FReepers one day and giving us the J6 treatment.
Antifa or China doing dry runs?
Physical attacks on the U.S. power grid rose 71% last year compared with 2021.
According to a confidential sources scrap yard purchases of copper is up by 71% due to inflation flat lined.
Enviro-Nazis and Antifa types are more likely to be the PERPS!
...and “homeless” bums stealing wire for drugs.
Yes, and I wonder where and what Earth First has been up to?
Ah, two of us. Hmm, no idea but I remember there were some serious radicals and serious money behind them. Maybe their silence is to NOT bring attention to themselves? Maybe my idea is a rabbit hol but if I were looking for a pattern and looking for an organization that despises growth, industry, capitalism and humanity, it’s them
