AOL ^ | Oct. 1, 2023

Americans around the country will see their phones light up this week following a nationwide test of emergency alert systems.

The Federal Emergency Management Agency and the Federal Communications Commission are planning to test both the Emergency Alert System (EAS) and Wireless Emergency Alerts (WEA) on Wednesday, October 4, at 2:20 p.m. Eastern. The test will be conducted in two parts, with one set to go to cell phones and the other to radio and TV stations.

FEMA says the alert will have a unique tone and vibration to make the alert accessible to all recipients. Phones should receive the message only one time in the 30 minutes after the test begins on Wednesday.

Heard this was world wide?
New world order sh!t with a super strong signal?
Who knows anymore.
I’m going to see if I can shield my phone and see what happens.

Time to put your burner phones in an EMF bag. They can us geofencing to link them to your phone.

Bastards are probably up to something. This is rumored to be a test that lasts 2 hours.

Actually, I think that anything FEMA can/will tell me will be either irrelevant to me OR they’re just too damned late and a dollar short. And, if it’s some warning about GNW (Global Nuclear War) it won’t matter one bit.

Without a doubt he was. And here we are.

October 4 - turn off your cell phone day. Would not be surprised if the givernment signal will be sent when the phone is turned back on, or taken out of the EMF bag.

That’s when the “test” will actually be the real deal and they will say to “Bend over and kiss your A$$ Goodbye because we have given thechicoms, chia pet nork boy, puttieputt and the iran mollusks all the Lat & Lon numbers so that they can not stack warheads in the same place.”

And this is how we will steal this upcoming election.

“I think that anything FEMA can/will tell me will be either irrelevant to me OR they’re just too damned late and a dollar short.”

My first reaction ... any such communication from the today’s feral givernment will be untrue. It makes me sad to say that.

From what I’ve read, supposed to last 1 min but take 30mins to cover the whole U.S.

JR said “This means leave off the the cussing and swear words. No f-bombs. No c-words, no sh-words, etc. Not even masked. If in a headline or article you’re preparing to post, bleep it out.”

Yet cussing is in almost every post so far.

I haven’t read that. All I’ve seen is it’s a national test here. Other countries have their own tests.

Lying is worse than cussing. Inability to count is even worse.

The best conspiracy fear porn out there is that they will use this to transmit a frequency that will kill everyone who got the vax. The real vax that is.
