WHAT if THEY just shut down the grid when if the EAS message starts going out??????
Has anyone considered this?

The Deep State could just bring down the grid rendering the EAS system useless.

Don't get mad at me, I'm just playing along in the What If scenarios.

They'll never take down the grid. if they did that, they'd no longer be able to control the narrative.

You wouldnt be able to watch TV with no electricity.

How would the EAS work with no electric?

I mean, if you believe this EAS is going to happen, you have to figure they would stop at nothing to stop it.

Might not be the DS doing it. Could be China. Or whoever hacked the DOE computers in the SolarWind hack.

Yes and no. I worked as a TV station engineer for over 10 years and I can say it will be hit and miss. Our main transmitter (over the air) had zero backup.

That is why they are silencing opposition. Simply take out alternative news and make them unable to communicate, and they regain control of information.

My point of this thread is, IF you believe this EAS is going to go out, you have to alos believe there are people trying to stop it at any cost.

It's a little known fact that cell phones have an FM receiver in them. My guess is that, along with handheld radios, would be sufficient to share the necessary information as a last line of communication.
