Great post. I wonder what steps the Trump administration is taking - if any - to alleviate this major threat to our nation?

It would be a horrific, unimaginable nightmare that would kill, according to some estimates, up to 90% of the population, all described in the book, Apocalypse Rising.

Significant steps? I doubt that there are any.

It seems to me that there’s nobody other than Speaker Gingrich who not only (1) understands the triple threat, but who also (2) is prominent on the national stage.

Therefore somebody might say, “Let’s have Gingrich head up a big anti-EMP initiative.”

Yet if Pres. Trump should appoint Gingrich to such a job, that choice would probably doom the exercise since Gingrich is so widely disliked. He just doesn’t seem to be the kind of leader who is going to “bring people together” — whereas we seriously need a bi-partisan effort.

What about Frank Gaffney, Roscoe Bartlett and/or Jim Woolsey? They clearly are admirable experts in the EMP arena, but they have no real pizazz. They’ve been warning about the EMP threat for years, but almost nobody has paid them much attention — and IMHO, almost nobody’s likely to pay them attention in the future.

Bottom Line:

The outlook remains gloomy.
