The infrastructure bill has funding in it that will strengthen America's power grid.

Long time lurker.....they say the power grid can be hacked 3 to 4 times a year every year. However there are rules in place the prevent outages cascading. There are rules in place specifically for electric providers regarding cyber security. The federal government has CIP standards that require each company to monitor Computer logs, patch computers, back up systems and so forth. I’m not saying it is impossible but when we lost 30 generators during the ice storm most people had power. When we lost over 100 lines during hurricane Laura people in the northeast were just fine. So this is again the government trying to scare people. I’ll go back to lurking

Coincidence that these are both industries that the left hates?

Jen is probably thinking, "I wonder what a power grid does."

My question is, "Why are our critical infrastructure control systems exposed to the Internet?" There is nothing safe from hackers that's on the Internet.

There have been very smart people warning the government about hardening and securing the power grid for 15-20 years and very little has been done to do that.



Sorry we have been to busy bombing the Middle East, spending money on immigrants, giving banks and major companies bailouts they don’t deserve and overspending on a corrupt military industrial complex to bother protecting the homeland. Maybe our newest diversity hire can paint our power grid rainbow colors to show those pesky Russians that they can’t hack us or they are bad guys.

Yep, every foreign hacker has their eyes on AmeriKa. Our enemies pretty much can do whatever the heck they want to do to us. Creepy Joe still chasing after that "I love Trannies, and "White Supremacy" is the world's greatest threat absurdity. In the meantime, Creepy Joe still struggles to string together coherent sentences. But at least he hasn't stumbled and fallen, repeatedly, going up the stairs to AF1.

For her part Kamala "Heals-up" Harris still travels the world convincing our allies (and enemies) that America is slipping into third-world status. Kamala got a really bumpy ride to Guatemala. Her plane had to turn back because of mechancial trouble. You want evidence America is on the decline? Even our government airplanes are theatening to fall out of the sky. She should have stayed home. The Guatemalan President and her people gave Heels-Up a not-so- pleasant welcome. Basically told Heels-up to mind her own business and go home.

Sigh.

May not be a hard task. Take down 2 of the 5 major sites with long range snipers and the entire systems collapses for months. Would be the ultimate black swan event. Crash the country expect for the liberal east and west coasts. Starve and kill everybody in the middle.
