America's Achilles' Heel - Our Enemies Plan to Exploit
A single nuclear EMP from Iran, North Korea, Russia, or China… or even one massive solar storm… could collapse our entire power grid overnight.
This brand-new video exposes the terrifying vulnerability and the affordable, American-made solutions that could protect us today.

Long before it was fashionable, Jim Woolsey warned that America's electric grid was among its most vulnerable assets. The former CIA Director and Honorary Co-Chair of the Secure the Grid Coalition died July 21 at 84.

Emergency preparedness: “We are not preparing for the world we live in. We are preparing for the world we find ourselves in.” - Michael Mabee (Author of The Civil Defense Book.)
At Secure the Grid Coalition, that same principle guides our mission: prepare the grid for the world we may face, not just the one we expect.
Before the night ends, remember this:
The modern world runs on a grid most people never think about until it fails.
Solar storms are natural. Enemies are plenty.
Transformer damage and preventable blackouts are policy choices.
Protect critical infrastructure.
Secure OUR grid.
Did you know?
In 1989, a solar storm helped knock out power to 6 million people in Québec.
The lights did not go out because of wind, ice, or sabotage.
They went out because activity from the Sun disturbed Earth’s magnetic field, sending currents into Transformers/long transmission lines and stressing the grid.
That is the hidden risk behind geomagnetically induced currents, or GIC.
Solar storms are natural.
Grid failure does not have to be.
Secure the grid. Protect critical transformers.
If we order a transformer TODAY, you get power in 2030.
4–6 year manufacturing lead times could cripple America after a substantial grid collapse.
This isn’t a supply chain issue, it’s a national security crisis.
The Secure the Grid Coalition is fighting to fix it.
Secure the Grid. Secure our Future.
