The directive by @POTUS for a Space Force could bring us from MAD to SANE: "Strategic Assured National Existence." This effort must get underway ASAP and with DETERMINED LEADERSHIP to employ space-based missile defense and Secure The Grid from EMP!! https://t.co/GnFedtGO9I
Dr. Peter Pry provides a concise analysis of the real and significant danger posed by Moscow's megalomaniac: Poseidon. It's just one example of Russia's nuclear superiority, which must be reversed by @realDonaldTrump https://t.co/Y3sDmNqlt5
With @FERC providing top-cover for @NERC they signal to the owners and operators of our nation’s most critical infrastructure that the “business as usual” culture of lackadaisical security can remain in place for adversaries to exploit. This may result in widespread suffering.
President Trump cannot rely on DOD, DOE, or DHS to accomplish what needs to be done to protect the American people against the existential EMP threat. We need @realDonaldTrump to appoint a competent Executive Agent from the White House to lead the effort! https://t.co/jT8JnByu3K
Our Coalition has put @FERC on notice, including FACTS from the most recent EMP Commission Reports in the official FERC docket. An extended blackout could result in the death of a large fraction of the American people, so FERC MUST require TRUE SECURITY! https://t.co/DCORaKP5Vc

Save the EMP Commission!
America: The DOD and HASC has failed you!
At a time when nuclear-capable North Korea threatens the United States daily with the prospect of a high altitude nuclear electromagnetic pulse (EMP) attack (which they have been rehearsing for much of the past decade), and as the sun continues to produce technology-killing geomagnetic solar storms, and as both state and non-state sponsored hackers continue to penetrate our grid with malicious and potentially devastating cyber attacks, the House Armed Services Committee and Department of Defense have, as of July 31, 2017, dismantled the only honest arbiter working to get the dysfunctional federal government to address these growing threats – The Congressional EMP Commission.
To learn more about this critical failure of the DOD and HASC and what YOU can do to help, please visit the “Take Action!” tab and download the “Save the EMP Commission” PDF.
Attacks on Electrical Substations
Attacks on electrical substations have underscored one of America’s most serious vulnerabilities: If the power goes off and stays off, our Nation and the vast majority of its population will cease to exist.
In addition to natural causes (geomagnetic disturbances (GMD) a.k.a. solar storms), the grid can be seriously disrupted for prolonged periods by four man-made events, including physical assaults, radio frequency devices (RFD), cyberattack, and high-altitude electromagnetic pulse (HEMP). Such events could disrupt and/or destroy outright key parts of the power grid, prompting the cascading collapse of substations and effecting every one of the other 15 critical infrastructures that assure the availability of water, food, medicine, finance, transportation, telecommunications, etc., possibly for years.
The good news is that we know how to fix the electric grid’s vulnerabilities. Known and relatively affordable technologies can protect our power grid and the 21st Century American economy, society and people that absolutely depend upon it.
Learn about the threat – and what you can do about it.
Our Nation’s 16 Critical Infrastructure Sectors are:
- Energy
- Defense Industrial Base
- Communications
- Healthcare & Public Health
- Emergency Services
- Water & Wastewater Systems
- Transportation Systems
- Food & Agriculture
- Information Technology
- Financial Services
- Nuclear Reactors, Materials & Waste
- Chemical
- Commercial Facilities
- Critical Manufacturing
- Dams
- Government Facilities
These infrastructures are dependent on electricity and technology.
