A 26-year-old man from Chicago, Il. was arrested this weekend after allegedly hacking into the Cook County Human Services system & approving every single application for food stamps.
But he didn’t stop there - he reportedly had new EBT cards mailed out to applicants with $2.5K loaded on each, and even credited existing cardholders with an extra $2.5K.

Americans have never been carpet bombed and have no idea what is the mass loss of life inflicted by warmongers. Any American who wonders why any part of the world shouts "Death to America" is seriously deluded about their own history, crimes, and practices. Your taxes kill babies

Mohammed Al-Farrah, a member of the Political Bureau of Yemen's AnsarAllah:
"Venezuelans should not wait for the United Nations to restore their president; condemnations, denunciations, rebukes, and statements will not bring Maduro back.
Maduro will not return to his people unless America feels that its interests have become threatened, that its warships and vessels are exposed to Venezuelan strikes, and that the Venezuelan people have entered a state of mobilization and readiness, with intense hostility toward America.
The experience of Yemen in confronting America is a school for everyone who is harmed by its evils."
