Rolling blackouts may soon become the norm in parts of the U.S., much like they are in places like North Korea and Pakistan.
Imagine, third-world America is no longer an unbelievability.

Even the mass propaganda media is finally admitting the shift to green energy may prove to be catastrophic.
The Washington Post has warned:
The shift to green energy is threatening Americans’ power supplies—our power grid is being pushed to the brink.
Demand is skyrocketing for electricity:
– Northern Virginia, where the equivalent to several big nuclear plants is needed to handle all of the upcoming data centers there,
– Georgia, whose projected new electricity use for the next decade is 17 times greater than recent figures,
– Texas, where there are already routine electricity shortages on the hottest days of summer, growing demand could push it to a breaking point, and
– Arizona’s biggest utility expects to be out of transmission capacity before the decade closes.
As the Post noted:
Vast swaths of the United States are at risk of running short of power as electricity-hungry data centers and clean-technology factories proliferate around the country, leaving utilities and regulators grasping for credible plans to expand the nation’s creaking power grid.
They cite the rapid scaling of cloud computing and AI as part of the problem given its great demand for power. Crypto mining is also placing pressure on the grid, causing bottlenecks and other issues.
Also, manufacturers of clean technologies such as electric vehicle batteries and solar panels are building a lot of factories in the U.S. with support from federal incentives, and utility projections for the power that new factories will need in the next five years have nearly doubled and could grow more.
Further, the energy transition is pushing many Americans to depend on the power grid for fueling their cars, induction stoves, heat pumps and other appliances that no longer run on fossil fuels.
The chairman of electricity regulator Georgia Public Service Commission, Jason Shaw, said:
When you look at the numbers, it is staggering. It makes you scratch your head and wonder how we ended up in this situation. How were the projections that far off? This has created a challenge like we have never seen before.
You “wonder how we ended up in this situation.” Have you considered this is all by design? Remember, Barack Hussien Obama and his promise to fundamentally transform America into a sh*thole.
Although the Post has expressed concerns about how this might “stifle the transition to cleaner energy,” at least they are admitting there is a problem here.
Assessments by the North American Electric Reliability Corporation (NERC) predict:
[T]wo thirds of the U.S. could experience power outages this summer, including nearly everyone living to the west of the Mississippi River.
Further:
[T]he government is forcing conventional energy resources like nuclear power, natural gas, and coal into retirement too quickly, and it is not being replaced quickly enough by wind and solar power to meet power demands.
The Institute for Energy Research noted the EPA’s Good Neighbor Plan, which requires the fossil fuel plants in nearly half of the country to decrease nitrogen oxide emissions, will also lead to blackouts as power plants are expected to comply by limiting their hours of operation.
Meanwhile, solar plant inverters are suffering from widespread glitches and systemic performance issues that can trigger major power outages and threaten grid reliability.
The NERC summer reliability assessment:
[I]s a warning to [The Obama/Biden Regime] and states moving full speed ahead on the green energy transition.
Unfortunately, at present America is being led by a cabal of societally suicidal/homicidal actors who are feigning disbelief of how disastrous their push for green energy really is.
Sadly, the intent of these corrupt, mentally ill bureaucrats will not be sufficiently realized until the power goes out and We the People experience blackouts.
Final thoughts: Apparently, those determined to bring our beloved country to its knees have connected the dots—America is being set up for one disaster after another. And apparently, not enough actors intent upon saving America from imminent doom have similarly connected the dots.
How much longer are we to wait for The Plan to become apparent before We the People assume a more kinetic role to save our beloved country?
God speed to Conservatism and to the Take Back of our Constitutional Republic.
