Not only did the Harris Biden camp divert funds from FEMA to illegals…
Incompetence or just plain stupid?
Sounds like bullshit

Not a single credible news source reporting on this even though these tweets are dated back to February, just a bunch of X nobodies. I’m going to assume it’s a fake news botnet
[Finding the source Tweet](https://x.com/amuse/status/1841146840592318465?s=46&t=GjI-lDbGOw_cGLLsw447cQ) gave me brain rot.
I know it’s a shock, but I can’t find a single source that indicates that the US has depleted a reserve stockpile of transformers. In fact, according to [this report](https://www.cisa.gov/sites/default/files/2024-09/NIAC_Addressing%20the%20Critical%20Shortage%20of%20Power%20Transformers%20to%20Ensure%20Reliability%20of%20the%20U.S.%20Grid_Report_06112024_508c_pdf_0.pdf), it appears that the US *does not* maintain a stockpile at all, despite what the post says. Page 18 of that report recommends starting a stockpile due to a decade-long trend of transformer shortages.
Looks like an unbiased headline from unbiased source. When resources are spread worldwide with multiple crisis happening simultaneously, coordination and timing are very critical when allocating what is necessary and to where it goes. You can’t just stop sending to one plan and allocate everything to another place overnight.
This is the government mind you. Waiting time is always 24-48 hours/days/months/years.
Wait our stockpile is less than 100 transformers? This is some good conspiracy bullshit comrade.
Wouldn’t it be ironic if Russia knew we sent all our resources to Ukraine, so they manipulated storms somehow to intensify the damage to strategic areas of our infrastructure? FAFO. Did we think there would be no response to our attacks on Nordstream 2? Add the bridge in Baltimore harbor to the list as well.
would not be surprised if this was true, current leaders are a mess.
Is this some weird whataboutism because of the tRump/ Putin covid test bullshit?
Like that’s the worst thing any president has ever done… /s

Here’s more info straight from a USAID press release. Now this doesn’t mean we don’t still have some left for our own turf…but apparently we gave them a billion in energy assistance.
Today, Deputy Administrator Isobel Coleman announced that USAID will provide more than $190 million to the Securing Power, Advancing Resilience and Connectivity (SPARC) project, which will provide urgently needed energy assistance to the Government of Ukraine (GOU) over five years. This project will focus on improving the resilience, reliability, affordability, and security of the electric power, natural gas, and district heating sectors in Ukraine and provide critical technical assistance, reform support, and equipment and services to maintain energy supply…USAID has dedicated nearly $1 billion in energy assistance since the onset of Putin’s full-scale invasion, building short and long-term resilience for the people of Ukraine. This includes over $475 million in emergency support provided during the last two winters to help Ukraine repair and maintain its energy infrastructure. This equipment includes autotransformers to ensure electricity transmission to communities across the country and mobile boiler houses to heat critical facilities like schools and hospitals. This support is helping Ukrainians achieve the future they envision for their own country – one in which Ukraine is prosperous, democratic, and independent.

This is bullshit. The electrical grid in the US operates uniquely to the rest of the world. They aren’t even the same frequency so almost nothing is compatible between the two systems.
It’d be like trying to put a random Ford engine into a random BMW
I work in power plants and power company warehouses all over Texas, they keep their own backups. They are not dependent on any federal emergency reserves. They have warehouses full of this shit for times like this. It takes time to mobilize it and get shit fixed especially when an area is devastated by a fucking hurricane with another one right on its heels.
Probably a lot of migrants traveling north rn
Is this the response from the bots after hearing publicly that trump gave russia covid tests even though people here were dying because of lack of testing?
Strange , I thought it was the Governor that refused help.
The bullshit is that Ukraine or Israel receive anything from the US
This is not true.
Don’t you get tired of believing every fear mongering post?
MAGA horseshit is at diarrhea levels.
Don’t they run at 50Hz over there? All our equipment would be spec’ed at 60Hz. How would this work?
