A Baltimore County, Maryland resident in a Facebook group called "BGE Victims," which has 22,000 Marylanders venting about the power bill crisis, revealed earlier this week that a Baltimore County Police detective "paid [him] a visit" over posts in the online group that allegedly threatened "the parasites of BGE and the grid owners/operators."

Baltimore resident Vin Shrader - or at least that's his online name  - said, "A detective from the Balto. Co. P.D. just paid me a visit about some of my post claiming I've been threatening the parasites of bge and the grid owners / operators," adding, "He strongly suggested that I tone down my opinons."

Shrader continued, "BULLSHIT, Now I can expect the swat team to come and get me for using my 1st admenment rights. It's now obvious the parasite democratic policticans along with bge are going to have local law enforcement do their bidding to shut us / me up. BULLSHIT, not going to happen. I have to be a martor, so be it. There's only one way I'm going down."



The Maryland power bill crisis first came to our attention in August 2024, when years of poor power-grid management by Democrats (mostly due to backfiring 'green' policies) in the state collided with surging electricity demand from AI data centers (read here).

Fast forward to today: the power bill crisis in the one-party rule state of Democratic Party kings and queens, headed by leftist Gov. Wes Moore, who has presidential ambitions, is getting hammered in the polling numbers (new data from Annapolis-based Gonzales Research & Media) as struggling Marylanders are financially crushed by mounting power-bill debt and venting their frustration in the group of 22,000.

All along, it was inevitable that the power bill crisis in the Mid-Atlantic would become a "major political issue" and that it was only a matter of time before the people revolted against local politicians who've been wearing green blinders for a decade, if not longer.

We don't want to be the bearer of bad news for residents in the region, but the epic grid mismanagement by Democrats, now colliding with the era of data centers, almost certainly means this crisis is not going away anytime soon and will likely become one of the most pressing issues in Mid-Atlantic states like Maryland.

FYI to the 22,000 members of the group: It seems as if "Big Brother" is watching...

Trump Proves That He IS Israel's President, Launching the 7th Illegal War For Israel Since 9-11-2001

General Wesley Clark, Supreme Allied Commander Europe of NATO revealed in 2003 that just 3 weeks after 9/11 the Pentagon planned “to take out seven countries in 5 years,” beginning with Iraq and ending up with Iran.

Gen. Clark was absolutely correct in his report, except the timeline…the Pentagon couldn’t pull off their outrageous, genocidal plans to destroy the entire Middle East until the American people were dumb enough to elect a certifiable lifetime tool of the “Jewish state”, twice.

Iran blocks Strait of Hormuz: Revolutionary Guard tells ships they are 'not allowed' through world's most vital export route

Ships have been reportedly blocked from passing through the world's most vital route for exporting oil by the Iranian Revolutionary Guard, in retaliation for joint Israel-US air strikes targeting the regime.

The Strait of Hormuz connects the biggest Gulf oil producers, such as Saudi Arabia, Iran, Iraq and the United Arab Emirates, with the Gulf of Oman and the Arabian Sea.

However vessels have been receiving VHF transmission from Iran's Revolutionary Guards saying 'no ship is allowed to pass the Strait of Hormuz', an official from the European Union's naval mission Aspides said on Saturday.

until there is a notice to mariners' hazard to navigation warning issued this is just a strongly worded warning, when the Iranis start laying mines and Lloyds of London starts cancelling insurance policies then it's serious. I'm sure the mine fields have been laid out for years changing only to fit in newer weapons, all they have to do is direct transits closer to Irani shore battery fire with the guns already sighted. when that happens all transports of commercial volumes will cease. Iran has had plenty of time since the Sammual B Roberts (FFG58) to install command detonated mine fields. the mine the Roberts hit was from 1943 soviet stocks given to Iran in the early '50s. in the '90s they got ahold of Italian made Manta mines which are unsweepable with a truncated cone shape invisible to sonar. no telling what the chicoms have sold them in the rapid self-rising class of short tethered moored mines, by rapid it means 750 knots of speed, rocket propelled.
