Millions across Spain, Portugal, and even parts of southern France woke up today thinking it was 2025. Turns out, it’s starting to feel more like 1925, because thanks to one of the largest blackouts Europe’s seen in decades, the modern conveniences they’ve been bragging about have crumbled faster than a EU climate summit under scrutiny. Cities went dark, airports froze, metro lines stopped dead in their tracks, and critical infrastructure was left limping along on backup generators—because apparently, nobody in Brussels ever thought something like this could actually happen.
The first signs of disaster hit around midday when Spain’s grid collapsed in a blink. Airports in Madrid, Barcelona, Seville, and Valencia were thrown into chaos, trains got stuck mid-route, and even the Madrid Open tennis tournament had to be shut down, according to The Telegraph. Hey, but at least the players didn’t have to worry about sweating under those expensive LED stadium lights, right?
Now, let’s talk about the million-euro question: what caused this mess? Well, while the usual EU mouthpieces are fumbling for words, a lot of people are pointing fingers at a cyber attack. Shocking, right? Not like we’ve been warning for years that putting every single system online would end in disaster. Spain’s own cybersecurity agency, INCIBE, admitted they’re investigating hostile cyber operations. Even Juanma Moreno, President of Andalusia, came right out and said that a cyber attack is the “most likely cause.” But don’t expect any backbone from Spain’s government. Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez is still hiding behind a podium somewhere, probably consulting a focus group before saying anything that might upset Brussels.
Meanwhile, Madrid’s regional leader Isabel Díaz Ayuso actually decided to act like a leader and demanded the activation of Level 3 emergency protocols, which would bring in the military. Good. Someone’s got to maintain order when the metro’s down, the supermarkets are shuttered, and gas stations are drier than Biden’s speeches.
It didn’t take long for the chaos to spill beyond Spain. Reports started coming in about outages in Belgium too. If you think this is “just a technical glitch,” I’ve got some oceanfront property in Kansas to sell you. European citizens, already fed up with skyrocketing energy costs, mass immigration, and governments obsessed with “green energy” fairy tales, are not buying the official silence.
Oh, and let’s not miss the European Commission chiming in with their typical empty “we are monitoring the situation” statement. Great. That’s like yelling “thoughts and prayers” while your neighbor’s house burns down.
If this blackout turns out to be a cyber attack—and all signs are flashing red—it’s a gigantic wake-up call. Europe’s politicians have been too busy pushing useless climate agendas and sending billions to Ukraine to actually protect their own infrastructure. Real leadership, like we saw under President Trump, would have put national security first, not last.
Funny how when you put globalist virtue-signaling ahead of basic competence, you end up eating cold beans out of a can by candlelight. Europe, you’re getting a real taste of what happens when you trust the bureaucrats instead of the bulldozers.
