Why? Because they know our power and water systems are vulnerable, and they aren't relying on luck anymore.

But before we freak out, THIS IS A GOOD THING. It doesn't mean war is imminent. It means Trump is taking our national security seriously. He knows we have to protect our bases from any type of attack.

We don't know if there's more to this, but I will say, IF you've ever been looking for a sign to start prepping... this might be it.


Meanwhile, Dan Bongino is telling people to stock up on 30 days worth of emergency food and to do it immediately. Additionally, 17 nations have now asked their citizens to stock up on emergency supplies.



I'm sure it's nothing, folks. Still yet, it might not be a bad idea to stock up on some stuff. It sounds like they're expecting that the grid might go down.

I’m surprised that our bases aren’t already prepared to do so. Wouldn’t the electrical grid be the first thing to fail during a full scale war or thermonuclear exchange?

Not a bad idea to be able to run without grid power. I don’t think this indicates something big is about to happen (I hope I’m right), but in this day and age where everything runs off of electricity, it could make or break a conflict/war.

If someone waits for the government to tell them to prepare, they are already too late.

But anyway. I honestly do not think anything will happen, but I applaud them for warning us and preparing themselves.

Grid failure party doesn't sound as exciting as a hurricane party

Im going with this too.

We were told to keep 4" wide duct tape in the house for chemical attacks.

I know that since we have not had any attacks on the grid and there may be one, that we close to one today, than we were tomorrow; this is a preparedness thing.

Because to me, it sounds like Trump is trying to pull all powers together to create peace.

China,
Russia,
Brazil,
Europe.

So who is going to perpetuate the attacks?

Glenn Beck is always dramatic. That said... it is never a bad thing to be a prepper. Pretend you live in GTMO and a hurricane is coming and the desal plant gets wiped out.

Are we going to have a power outage while mass arrests happen? I'm curious when some of you guys decide things like this are doom porn scare tactics, legitimate concerns, or part of a plan carried out by white hats.

I’ll be dropping lines in the river behind me, and those squirrels are looking awfully fat in my trees. Water may be the only problem as I haven’t tried purifying before. May need to start liking wine to battle hydration issues

Another broken water line so we can stop counting votes?

Bongino has always pushed this, even before his break to join the Trump admin.

You do know My Patriot Supply is a sponsor, right?

Man that would be something if it goes down like that- no power, no communication while all the bad guys are rounded up - then BAM the lights come back on and every bad guy is in cuffs on the White House lawn!
