Amid growing concerns of security risks to members of Congress, more than 50 senators have been issued satellite phones for emergency communication, people familiar with the measures told CBS News. The devices are part of a series of new security measures being offered to senators by the Senate Sergeant at Arms, who took over shortly after the assault on the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021.
The satellite phone technology has been offered to all 100 senators. CBS News has learned at least 50 have accepted the phones, which Senate administrative staff recommend senators keep in close proximity during their travels.
In testimony before the Senate Appropriations Committee last month, Senate Sergeant at Arms Karen Gibson said satellite communication is being deployed "to ensure a redundant and secure means of communication during a disruptive event."
Gibson said the phones are a security backstop in the case of an emergency that "takes out communications" in part of America. Federal funding will pay for the satellite airtime needed to utilize the phone devices.
A Department of Homeland Security advisory said satellite phones are a tool for responding to and coordinating government services in the case of a "man-made" or natural disaster that wipes out communication.

Notice this is the Senate...not the HOUSE.
Wonder what disruptive bs they’re playing at.
Only 50 Senators have accepted the phones? All Democrats?
What is the Chain of Command... President, VP, House Speaker...
So no SAT phones for the Republican led House? AND 50 other Senators declined the phones?
Interesting chat from Nate.
RED ALERT! US GOVERNMENT ISSUING SATELLITE PHONES, RUSSIA EVACUATE NUCLEAR WEAPONS, F16s WILL BE WW3

Hope for the best, plan for the worst. Maybe NSA found it would easier to monitor their communications if they used government issued satellite phones.
I guess even among the ruling class, some are more equal than others.
What do they know that is possibly getting ready to happen that we do not?
A lot of the world's problems would be solved if russia and the u.s. each launched one large yield nuke taking each other's seat of government. No need to involve the rest of our countries' citizens in the russia mafia/deep state retardery.
It’s a very bad idea.
Senators could be located by bad guys via the senators’ rather rare phone signal emissions.
there are a lot of moves happening that are making the media, it is being reported, but not at fever pitch.
IF or when the situation changes it will ‘shock’ many. Many will be unprepared. If it ends up being nuclear, at my age I am fine with that way ‘out of this world.’ The United States citizen is so unprepared for such an event I just do not believe most will survive it.
An EMP event is a different story or far enough away from the nuclear event without grid is a different story. That requires survival skills, bug out bags from the city, and a place to go. That one is a play it by ear. Small town/city might be safe if it has strong leadership and a militia for support. 5 years to the estimate to bring the grid back online in such an event.
The clock is ticking...
Festerman tried to eat his.
The missing nitrogen fertilizer, this "Nazi Uhaul White House" dry run.
"Patriot Front" (pure fed gay op) right after Biden speech Buckle up, the big false flag is going to be blamed on WHITE SUPREMACY.
Maybe it has something to do with Gordon Chang’s warning last week:
“Pray with all your heart. We’re about to face the unimaginable.”
They are PROBABLY BUGGED!
FAKE AS HELL!
Unfortunately, the exchange wouldn't stop with just two nukes. And there are plans to evacuate the White House, Congress and the senior bureaucracy to safety at the first signs of attack, so those of us peons fortunate (or unfortunate) enough to survive WW III would still have those same rulers to support.
"Mr. President, I'm not saying we wouldn't get our hair mussed. But I do say no more than ten to twenty million killed, tops. Uh, depending on the breaks." - General "Buck" Turgidson (Dr. Strangelove, 1964).
Was Biden driving again?
Maybe Deep State is getting concerned some were/are planning on leaving the reservation.
Agreed.
All those tons of fertilizer that went missing off that rail car. It all fell out along the tracks...right. They think we are idiots.
All those survey flights that have been happening over the cities? SMH.
