GRID VOLTAGE DOWN:
The U.S. power grid is beginning to fail, just as myself and others have been warning. Con Edison just invoked an emergency VOLTAGE REDUCTION across vast areas of NYC! (See impacted areas listed below.)

This voltage reduction was claimed to be 8% (more than enough to set off uninterruptible power supplies and cause electronics failures) but many customers reported actual voltage reductions of 25%, meaning your typical household voltage of 115 V would be reduced to 86 V, rendering most modern electronics, motors, pumps, lights, etc., largely inoperable.

Con Edison essentially implementing a rolling blackout but called it a “voltage reduction.” Because no institution in America can admit the truth anymore. What truth? That the eastern power grid is on the verge of catastrophic collapse.

According to my AI research agents:
“The voltage reductions and energy conservation requests affected vast swaths of the city, including:
• Northern Manhattan and the Bronx: Areas such as Riverdale, Marble Hill, Kingsbridge, Van Cortlandt Park, Inwood, Hudson Heights, and Washington Heights were among the first affected, with emergency shut-offs also occurring in Riverdale.
• Brooklyn and Queens: Nearly 400,000 customers in these boroughs had their voltage reduced. Specific zones included northern Brooklyn (Williamsburg, Greenpoint, Bedford-Stuyvesant, Fort Greene) and northern/southeastern Queens (Auburndale, Jamaica, South Richmond Hill, Howard Beach).
• Westchester County: Approximately 90,000 customers in Yonkers, Mount Vernon, Bronxville, New Rochelle, and Mamaroneck were asked to conserve energy.
• Staten Island: Three pockets on the island also saw voltage reductions.
Customers in these areas were urged to limit air conditioning use, avoid energy-intensive appliances like washers and dryers, and delay electric vehicle charging.”

And it’s probably not even the hottest day of the year yet. On top of that, the eastern grid operator PJM just warned yesterday that it has reached peak demand beyond its ability to provide the necessary power buffer, and it may have to start ordering data centers to power down.

This is why I’ve been pursuing solar solutions for decentralized living, and it’s why I’m now advocating off-grid energy storage solutions, now that battery technology has finally advanced enough to offer reliable, long-life LFP batteries that make energy storage more practical and economical.

If you are one of 67 million Americans who depend on the eastern grid that serves 13 states, you should be urgently preparing to live without electricity for an extended period of time. You can start right now with mobile “solar generators” or power stations that can charge everything from electronics to electric vehicles. Then move up to a solar array that feeds your own on-site battery storage system, via an inverter that also converts the battery energy back into alternating current when you need it.

I will be covering all this in more details, including with upcoming how-to videos on solar technology and off-grid EV charging, at BrightVideos.com next week (and beyond).

I know this reads almost like a marketing brochure, but it's difficult to tell the full story about CATL's "TENER" sodium-ion grid storage breakthrough without it sounding like hype. The technical achievements are quite real, and this is a breakthrough for "grid shifting" wind and solar to off hours. It's also a huge deal for data centers who need large-scale power backup.

I'll be covering this in more detail in an upcoming broadcast and article from Natural News:

Happy 250th to the United States of America! At 250, it has lasted longer than most, but of course the original founding Republic is already ancient history.

Today, we live under a tyrannical regime of authoritarians, bureaucrats and incompetent fools who steal our money, start new wars, poison our crops, inject our children with toxic chemicals and tell us it's a new "Golden Age!"

The American Empire doesn't have much time left. Here's an infographic of the rough timelines of the rise and fall of previous empires. When will the American empire be added to this list? Probably soon. (Pardon minor AI errors in the chart...)

Got another powerful infographic for you on this 250th anniversary of the birth of our nation: Check out the rise and fall of world reserve currencies over the last several centuries.

Note that most currencies barely survive a century as the world reserve. The dollar, which is now being printed by the trillions (a form of theft from the citizens), has been the world standard, arguably, for about 106 years.

This too will come to an end. With Trump printing and spending like mad, that day will come even sooner. Thanks to Trump's foolish war with Iran, the entire world now sees the U.S. military as weak and ineffective. Most countries are taking steps to move away from dollar transactions and holding dollar (Treasury) debt. While the dollar is still by far the currency of the largest and most liquid debt market (U.S. Treasuries), that's slipping away as nations turn to domestic currency settlements and gold.

Will the U.S. dollar survive much longer as the dominant global currency? (AI-generated infographic, pardon small errors.)

The U.S. stock market is a Ponzi scheme. It needs new investors (suckers) to keep the Ponzi afloat.

Trump brags that the Ponzi going higher and higher is making everybody rich.

He sounds just like Bernie Madoff at this point, and when the Ponzi collapses, Trump is going to be blamed, so he'll look for somebody else to divert the blame from himself.

At some point, every government becomes a cheerleader for a market Ponzi, and it sees those who think rationally about market valuations as enemies of the state. And when markets collapse, those who accurately predicted the collapse are BLAMED for causing it... for not having enough "optimism" and thereby causing people to sell.

The very act of selling, at that point, is practically considered a criminal act by the government that desperately needs the Ponzi to continue growing. In Trump's case, it's far worse than ever before, because Americans are more indebted than anyone can remember, and Trump's only answer to rising food prices, fuel prices and health insurance costs is to tell people they're getting rich in the stock market.

When the market craters, that narrative falls apart. And the American people are abandoned, impoverished and wondering what happened to that "Golden Age" Trump promised them.

They didn't know it was always a scam from the very start. There is no Trump Golden Age coming. The gold is only for himself and his family. Everybody else gets rug pulled. The entire Trump presidency has been one giant rug pull, in fact.

Video clip with Mel K about the post-WWII Nazi infiltration of the USA, and how the Nazis took over the Dept of State and the CIA very early on... (from BrightVideos.com)

Brandon Weichert on Iran's strategy of cranking up the economic pressure on the west, making an ongoing war economically intolerable to the USA and other western nations. From our recent Decentralize.TV interview.

Those MAGA advocates who still "trust the plan" are actually victims of a modern-day version of Operation Trust, a genius influence apparatus put in place by the Soviets to get people to believe a narrative of inaction (i.e. trust the plan, everything you see is actually part of the plan, it's a 10-D chess plan, and it will all work out for you if you just sit back and watch the movie).

All the followers of QAnon, plan-trusters, Trump worshipers, etc., are all sucked into the same thing today. Here's an infographic that explains it. Pardon any AI-induced typos.

Astonishingly, there are still Trump cultist who are so deeply brainwashed, they believe the "Quantum Financial System" (rebranded GESARA / NESARA) nonsense, and many of them still think a new QFS system will be unveiled that will instantly make everyone wealthy.

It has always been a giant con, run through QAnon circles, Trump cultists and crypto scammers who wanted to believe Trump was their financial savior. (In reality, Trump took over $3.8 billion from nearly one million of his own followers in a series of crypto rug pulls.)

This infographic (AI-generated, so pardon typos) depicts the overarching narrative of the QFS / NESARA / GESARA nonsense, and explains how the QFS narrative has been used to scam those who are gullible enough to believe in it.

Randall Carlson explains the REAL "climate change" which involves solar events, impact events, volcanic events and more. The Earth has been put through extraordinary climatic changes over millions of years... (Short clip from our Decentralize TV interview).

If you are one of those Trump cultists who still "trusts the plan," you've been conned.

The entire Trump presidency was one giant rug pull.

This AI-created infographic depicts this concept in detail:

Broccoli is a classic favorite, but it’s not the only vegetable worth adding to your plate. Green peas, artichokes, sweet potatoes and other colorful veggies bring variety, texture and plenty of fiber to everyday meals. Mixing them into your menu keeps things interesting.

Trump Cultism Is Just a Modern-Day Operation Trust: Why ‘Trust the Plan’ Is a PSYOP For the Weak-Minded
https://naturalnews.com/2026-07-06-trump-cultism-a-modern-day-operation-trust.html

New infographic: Rolling blackouts are now happening in the USA, just as I warned. PJM already announced an emergency action level on the Eastern grid, and ConEd rolled out voltage reductions (essentially blackouts) across NYC over the weekend, plunging the electricity service voltage of customers from 115 V to 86 V (where electronics cannot function).

This is only going to get far worse as the U.S. power grid filters under the heavy demand load of data centers and EVs.
