Why Has The United States Been Shaken By So Many Unusual Earthquakes Lately?

• https://theeconomiccollapseblog.com, by Michael

As you will see below, there have been noteworthy quakes on the west coast, on the east coast, near our northern border, and near our southern border.  Of course all of this comes at a time when the entire planet is being shaken by unusual seismic activity.  Is all of this unusual seismic activity building up to something?  If so, what does that mean for all of us?

On Tuesday night, a magnitude 5.2 earthquake that shook southern California made headlines all over the nation…

An earthquake northwest of Los Angeles shook a large swath of Southern California on Tuesday night, but there were no immediate reports of damage.

The U.S. Geological Survey said the 5.2 magnitude temblor struck at 9:09 p.m. and was centered near Mettler, an unincorporated area in Kern County about 85 miles (137 kilometers) from downtown Los Angeles.

Following the quake, Dr. Lucy Jones went on television and revealed that her initial assessment was that the quake was not associated with any known fault.

I thought that was quite strange.

Another earthquake expert named Ole Kaven agreed with that assessment, but he did note that this particular area is known for earthquakes

There isn't a known fault in the area where the earthquake struck on Tuesday night, but it's still an area known for earthquakes, said Ole Kaven, U.S. Geological Survey research geophysicist.

The shaking was felt over a very large area.

In fact, it was being reported that this earthquake was felt by those living "in Ventura, Simi Valley, Camarillo, Santa Clarita, Encino, Hollywood, Santa Monica, North Hollywood and Woodland Hills".
