The whole concept of Continuity of Government (COG) was originated by the British government during World War II, then was later adopted by the US and other world governments. President Dwight D. Eisenhower was the first US president to start implementing such a plan as COG, he put it on the table.
A handful of people, an elite group, empowered by president Ronald Reagan while he was in office, redefined the, then current, Continuity of Government COG) program, to to suspend the Constitution of the United States of America during any crisis. This was a clear step by rogue elements within the US Military Industrial Complex to try and secure total control over the United States, its assets, infrastructure, and citizens, by one day, circumventing the US constitution.
These are the very same elements that have also prepared ‘mass graves’ for you and your family as I reported in March of 2009, on the Alex Jones Show and Prison Planet TV. In unison, an article I authored for Infowars.com garnered national attention, as others around the country responded, turning up yet more evidence that these graves were being installed nationwide. These mass grave sites are likely part of COG, and are definitely part of Mass Fatality and Pandemic Preparedness Plans implemented by various state and local government agencies under the direction of the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA). These plans dovetail into prior formulated plots laid out by some of our nation’s top head officials.
After Ronald Regan was elected president, he installed Louis Giuffrida, as the head of FEMA, an old cold warrior. Through Giuffrida and others, key members of a rogue power structure would manipulate the law to circumvent the constitution at a future date. That event was 9/11.
As innocent as the former Hollywood actor turned president Reagan seemed, his handlers, at the time, were a very dangerous threat to our nation’s future. In fact, President Reagan and close constituants were also responsible for launching a secret Readiness Exercise in 1984, dubbed, REX84. A plan that would also work in tandem with multiple federal agencies during a time of civil unrest or ‘mass exodus’ of immigrants from Mexico. Essentially allowing the construction of concentration (FEMA) camps in America, later enforced by laws and provisions such as the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA).
The Rise of FEMA
TruthOut.org reported (a view into the past), “In January 1981, as the Reagan administration begins, it becomes increasingly clear that a major theme will be: Carter was wrong about everything. Placate the Soviets? Wrong. Solar power? Wrong. Social welfare programs? Wrong. FEMA …?
FEMA, now less than two years old, was still searching for its identity when Hurricane Reagan hit the agency. More and more military officers were seen daily signing in at the guards’ desk. Director Macy was replaced by Louis Giuffrida, a retired Army officer. As the Reagan administration took an increasingly confrontational public stance against the Soviets, FEMA under Giuffrida took a similar approach. Coordinating the response to natural disasters was becoming less and less important. FEMA’s real mission? Prepare for “The Big One,” the nuclear war with the Soviets.
FEMA would be an early version of TV hero Jack Bauer, fighting hard to save America from external threats. The problem was, the US government already had plenty of Jack Bauer’s (24) at the FBI, the CIA and the Defense Department … and they had no love for this upstart FEMA that would suddenly dash to the front of the line and grab all the glory for our country’s defense.
So FEMA, facing public anger from the anti-nuclear-war left, also faced disdain from the federal intelligence and law enforcement establishment. The agency soon became known as the “Turkey Farm,” where politically reliable (but not very skilled) political appointees would be sent to play their war games while the real action took place elsewhere.
To be sure, there were some bright spots in the FEMA leadership … Jeff Bragg, who established an employee performance management system in the Federal Insurance Administration, Sam Speck, who headed FEMA’s State and Local Programs Directorate and who understood the value of reaching out to our non-federal partners instead of trying to order them around.”
Today FEMA is a fairly well organized machine. However some have doubts after seeing how the agency handled hurricane Katrina. All of these agencies have since been running drills, that all tie into the COG control grid, as well as Echelon and other surveillance platforms.
Once the, then current, COG plan was redefined by Regan’s people, there would need to be a catastrophic event such as “another Pearl Harbor” to kick off the suspension of the American Constitution behind the backs of the American people with a dastardly plan to takeover the nation. This attack came in the form of 9/11.
The Suspension of the US Constitution
September 11, 2001, during the ‘terror attacks’ that took place on American soil, the most recent version of COG, at the time, was enacted. This was the event the establishment needed to proceed with their diabolic plans.
These plans have been operational, and still in effect ever since 9/11, as we are in a technical state of emergency, the constitution remains technically suspended.
In fact, Wikipedia reads, “The George W. Bush administration put the Continuity of Operations plan into effect for the first time directly following the September 11 attacks. Their implementation involved a rotating staff of 75 to 150 senior officials and other government workers from every federal executive department and other parts of the executive branch in two secure bunkers on the East Coast. Friends, family and co-workers were only able to reach them through a toll-free number and personal extensions. The Bush administration did not acknowledge the implementation of the COG plan until March 1, 2002.
Since its inception, the newly created Department of Homeland Security has conducted at least three exercises to test continuity plans. The first, named “Forward Challenge ’04″, took place from May 12 to May 13, 2004, and included more than 40 government agencies. The second major exercise took place from June 20 to June 24, 2005. Titled “Pinnacle”, the exercise tested responses to various emergencies, including a hypothetical act of terrorism. “Forward Challenge ’06″ was the third major exercise, and took place on June 19, 2006. It reportedly involved nearly 4,000 government personnel.
In September 2010, President Barack Obama informed Congress that the State of Emergency in effect since September 14, 2001, will be extended another year.The National Emergencies Act grants various powers to the president during times of emergency,and was intended to prevent a president from declaring a state of emergency of indefinite duration.
In 2007, Professor Larry J. Sabato criticized the incomplete nature of the plan in his book A More Perfect Constitution. In particular, he objected to the fact that there is no Constitutional procedure for replacing U.S. House members in the case of a large-scale attack which could potentially kill a large number of representatives. In regard to the Continuity of Operations Plan, Sabato said it “failed outright” during the September 11 attacks.
The NORAD- and USNORTHCOM-sponsored exercise “Vigilant Shield 2008″ took place from October 15 to October 20, 2007.”
According to some, these national level exercises have ramped up, which likely signifies the eminence of a substantial coming event.
An excerpt from Wikipedia reads Describes the actual Continuity of Operations plan or COOP;
Each facility is a counterpart to its peacetime equivalent.
Raven Rock Mountain Complex → The Pentagon (Department of Defense)
Mount Weather → Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) (Used temporarily for Members of Congress in Sept. 2001) Camp David → Executive Office of the President
Unknown → United States Congress (The Greenbrier was to be used until 1992, when it was decommissioned) Cheyenne Mountain → North American Aerospace Defense Command (NORAD)
United States Strategic Command Center (Offutt Air Force Base) → United States Strategic Command (USSTRATCOM)
The Former site:
National Audio-Visual Conservation Center (Mount Pony) → Department of Treasury/Federal Reserve (sold off in 1997 to the National Audiovisual Conservation Center) Project Greek Island (Greenbrier Bunker – Exposed in the press and removed from service)
Also, mobile systems are used for additional command and control.
E-4, EC-135, and E-6 are all airborne command centers.
Air Force One is the term for any USAF plane the President of the United States travels on. However, the term normally refers to a Boeing VC-25A the President normally uses. While the VC-25A is equipped with numerous systems to ensure its survival, in an emergency, it would be recommended that s/he use the National Airborne Operations Center, a Boeing E-4specially built to serve as a survivable mobile command post. The Secretary of Defense may also use it, as a member of the National Command Authority. It is also possible that the President would authorize the Vice President to use it, depending on the circumstances. An E-6 Mercury, is USSTRATCOM’s Airborne Command Post, designed to take over in case USSTRATCOM’s headquarters is destroyed or incapable of communicating with strategic forces. NORAD owns and operates a Mobile Consolidated Command Center
The Army has now set up a command center called United States Northern Command (USNORTHCOM) to further carryout these actions if necessary or required.
COG measures were invoked on September 11, 2001, during the terrorist attacks, and likely the attacks were part of a larger drill based scenario that went live in the public theatre (domain).
Congressmen, Brad Sherman, and members of the Homeland Security Committee have previously requested to see the COG plans and that they be made public. While most members of the government would admit a COG plan should be in place, they remain leery of a secret detailed plan to that suspends the US Constitution. Members of the government and the Homeland Security Committee have previously been denied access to this plan. A plan that is designed to keep our nation functioning at all costs, so they say.
Highly detailed plans to keep the nations top staff, and infrastructure operational regardless of any event, do exist.
According to insider testimony top former US cabinet level officials, Dick Cheney, Donald Rumsfeld, and others, often role-played fictional doomsday scenarios, based on possibilities including the annihilation of seated government officials in Washington, and or the nation’s crucial command and operations infrastructure.
These random life-like drills, often ending in some undisclosed underground location. These were the beginning stages of what is now known as the US governments Continuity of Government program (COG).
While Dick Cheney and others saw a need for encased security and preparedness measures for our nations central command in a time of crisis, they also were drooling over the potential profits that could be made for their private corporations.
However, there is more to all of the ‘doomsday’ planning then that. We must ask why elites and people in-the-know have also been privately gearing up for the same such scenarios.
According to Brian Camdin of Hardened Structures, whom I interviewed a few years back. The elites are gearing up for something, privately, at a rapid rate. Camdin, has even made over 200′ long ‘doomsday arcs’ made of steel that can sit on the ocean floor for five moths then rise again after the smoke has cleared.
What are they gearing up for?

If 200 ft. arcs that can sit on the ocean floor are being built, that is a possible scenario for a full scale nuclear war.
