(Worthy News) – President Trump is taking an unprecedented step to protect America’s electrical grid with a new executive order to prevent electromagnetic pulse attacks (EMP).
On Tuesday, the president signed the order directing all federal agencies to identify threats posed by EMPs, which experts say could be potentially dangerous to the US electric grid and other infrastructure systems. Trump’s directive orders the government agencies to find ways to guard against electromagnetic attacks.
The White House said the order is the first even to “establish a comprehensive policy to improve resilience to EMPs.” [ Source: CBN News (Read More…) ]
