If Ebola Reaches Central America, 'There Will Be Mass Migration into the U.S.'

Fwd: Iowa




 

Guns, Cars, Guitars and Rock & Roll

Three Cheers for Iowa!!!!!!​


1. Obama Flies Illegal teens to Iowa. 
  
2. The Iowa Governor Flies them back to Honduras.

 

 

Governor Bransted of Iowa had announced: "Iowa will not take any illegal children."

 

Obama overruled him and sent him 124 teens, aged 13-19.  When the plane landed in Des Moines the airport manager called the office of the Governor.  The Governor drove to the airport and chartered a United Airlines plane from Chicago.  Within 8 hours all the teens were fed and loaded on that plane.  The plane left Iowa at 8 o'clock Des Moines time. 
  
It's next stop was Honduras.  The plane landed and was unloaded.  Four Social Workers from Iowa made sure the teens got safely to the terminal, and the Social Workers told the Honduran officials, "Here are your teens, they have no papers, you let them come illegally to America.  We refuse to take them. 
Iowa has its own laws.  Minors from outside our country not accompanied by adults may not enter our state." 

Iowa has not heard one thing from Washington.

 

IF YOU LIKE IT,  PLEASE PASS IT ON!!!

If someone asks you what "low information voter"means, email them a copy of this.

 

To better understand the mind of this woman be sure to read the whole 'letter to the editor,' including her definition of a "natural born citizen"!

 

From the Carteret County N.C. News-Times (Editor's note: The following Letter to the Editor, published in the Jan. 23 edition, has gone viral on the Web after a reader linked it to a Fox News page.

 

 

 

We have now discovered something with less intelligence than a moon rock. I am now dumber for having read it. When you're done, share it. Cause no one deserves to suffer thru this alone. They are among us and they can vote.

 

Scary isn't it!  WOW!

 


Fwd: Traitors



 LIST OF TRAITORS

 

Is your Senator on this list of traitors??

Ask yourself - vote accordingly!

 

Democrats are still fixated on the evil Republicans asking embarrassing questions about Libya, the IRS, AP wiretaps, and Immigration Reform.  When, oh when will the USA wake up?

Over the weekend, we came four votes away from the United

States Senate giving our Constitutional rights over to the United Nations.

In a 53-46 vote, the senate narrowly passed a measure that will

stop the United States from entering into the United Nations Arms Trade Treaty. 

 

 The Statement of Purpose from the bill read:

To uphold Second Amendment rights and PREVENT the United States from entering into the United Nations Arms Trade Treaty.

The U.N. Small Arms Treaty, which has been championed by the Obama Administration,

would have effectively placed a global ban on the import and export of small firearms. The ban would have affected all private gun owners in the U.S., and had language that

 would have implemented an INTERNATIONAL GUN REGISTRY

on all private guns and ammo.

 

Astonishingly, 46 of our United States Senators were willing to give  away our Constitutional rights to a foreign power.

Here are the 46 senators that voted to give your rights to the U.N.

These Senators voted to let the UN take our guns.

They need to lose the election.

We have been betrayed.

Kaspersky and INTERPOL issue global alert: ATMs spitting out millions without cards [feedly]

Kaspersky and INTERPOL issue global alert: ATMs spitting out millions without cards
// Betanews

ATMs (automated teller machines) are everywhere and we all use them regularly. That has always made them a target for bad guys -- a card reader can steal all sorts of information. But in the wake of events like the Target and Home Depot breaches things have risen to a new level. So high, in fact, that security company Kaspersky and law enforcement organization INTERPOL have issued a warning.

It seems that ATMs are pouring out money to criminals who are not even using any sort of credit or debit card. While this isn't a problem for any particular individual, it is a major one for the banks, which makes it everyone's worry.

This is apparently a global problem, which explains the involvement by INTERPOL. It all stems from a recent investigation conducted by Kaspersky.

"Kaspersky Lab's experts performed a forensic investigation into cyber-criminal attacks targeting multiple ATMs around the world. During the course of this investigation, the company's researchers discovered a piece of malware infecting ATMs that allowed attackers to empty the cash machines via direct manipulation, stealing millions of dollars", the security company states.

The malware results from the bad guys being able to physically access the machines and insert a CD that contains the malware, which is dubbed Tyupkin. The ATM is then rebooted and under the control of the attacker.

"To make the scam harder to spot, Tyupkin malware only accepts commands at specific times on Sunday and Monday nights. During those hours the attackers are able to steal money from the infected machine", Kaspersky points out.

With the machine under control, the criminal can enter a unique digital code which can be used the make the withdrawal, and the code changes with each session. The code comes via a mobile phone from the person in control of the malware and is capable of generating the PIN. In other words, this is being done by gangs, not individual attackers.

The scam has been caught on video, as many ATMs have cameras. Kaspersky has turned this over to law enforcement and also alerted banks of the steps needed to prevent this type of attack.
