"This has to be intentional."
Part of the WEF/Schwab program for the "great reset" involving depopulation and the destruction of Western Civilization based on the thoughts of the Enlightenment.

Proposed Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) rules regulating carbon dioxide emissions for power plants would lead to blackouts in a large slice of the Midwest and impose costs of nearly $250 billion, according to new analysis by the Center of the American Experiment (CAE).

Good.

Nothing will end climate change activism faster than forcing Americans to throw away all the food that went bad in their refrigerators while paying utility bills that look like mortgage payments.

Rolling blackouts will absolutely kill people. Reggie White was an NFL player who died from sleep apnea. If your power goes out certainly people will die.

Now you know why places are banning natural gas hookups. So even if you have a natural gas generator you can’t run it. Your heat and AC are essential if you live in a cold or hot climate.

Can you imagine being in 110 degree weather in Arizona or -30 in Minnesota without climate control?

Rolling blackouts are the price paid to defeat “evil carbon”

“This administration is a one nasty herd of donkeys.”

The BIG DIFFERENCE is that RINOs hate Trump supporters, but the Democrats HATE THE UNITED STATES.

Big difference...and ending electricity in the US SHOULD be enough for everyone here to finally figure that out.

We are well past the point of people needing to start saying “no” to this crap, and I’m at the point that I don’t much care what form that “no” takes. When an unelected bureaucrat in the executive branch decides if an when I can have electricity, or what kind of appliances I can have, or what kind of car I can drive, or what kind of lightbulb I have to use of an evening to light my book, then I have to doubt how free I am. And this is just one of their attacks on liberty. How is what we now have even close to what true American government should be? We’re getting close to what the old communist regimes pulled in their propaganda— they were people’s democracies and had true freedom and equality and the government was working to preserve democracy and freedom — and everyone, including the communists in charge, knew it was b———t.

To your point, what about homes with sleep apnea patients who depend on CPAP machines to survive at night?

We got to live through that blackout. 48 hours with no power. Below 10F at night. BUT the powers at ERCOT who DONT live here didn’t lost their power. Good on them.

The millions pouring across our southern border are used to intermittent electrical service.

Can't blame them. I'm not. We're not enforcing our borders. We're too woke so we'll rather vote for Biden and the Democrats.

You know sometimes I feel like all these rules being implimented is because there will be ( unfortunetly a takeover of the US by a foreign power. Now, this is pure speculation oney part.

if anyone would like this info on my speculation shoot me a message here. It isnt complicated either

Why these institutions like the EPA and many others, are allowed to make rules and regulations is beyond me. It’s unconstitutional yet it’s allowed to go on.

Congress makes laws and no other body can. SCOTUS should be shutting this shxt down and I thought at one point it was going to happen.
