How vulnerable is America’s power grid?

🇺🇸🇮🇷 Another war with Iran could expose just HOW VULNERABLE America’s POWER GRID really is.

Brandon Weichert spoke with Chris Heaven, founder of Survival Dispatch, about a frightening possibility that isn’t getting nearly enough attention.

What happens if another American attack on Iran triggers retaliation against critical infrastructure at home?

Chris has spent years working in technology and emergency preparedness. And he believes the U.S. is dangerously unprepared for a prolonged disruption.

His concern goes well beyond losing electricity.

Without power and communications, banks could stop functioning, grocery deliveries could be interrupted, and water treatment facilities could struggle to operate.

And replacing damaged electrical equipment isn’t necessarily a quick fix. Some major transformers can take years to manufacture and deliver.

We also discuss the pressure that high diesel and fertilizer prices are putting on America’s food supply, and why even a relatively short disruption could become a serious problem for households.

Chris walks us through practical preparations, from storing food and drinking water to backup power, emergency communications and coordinating with neighbors.

Importantly, there’s no evidence that an attack on the American power grid is imminent. Chris is describing a worst-case scenario, not a confirmed Iranian operation.

America has built an extraordinarily sophisticated economy that depends on electricity, communications and deliveries working almost perfectly every single day.

And we rarely consider what happens when several of those systems fail at once.
