What is an EBT anyways?

An EBT is the reason your city will burn.

Never mind. It looks like SNAP is “Federal food dollar bills” and EBT is the “debit card version” of the same thing. If no SNAP dollars are allocated, you have no money in your EBT card.

“That letter doesn’t say there’s an EBT shutdown in November. That will never happen. 0 will never stop the flow of money from the hard-working productive people to his loyal supporters.”

If he’s trying to incite riots and chaos, he would.

YES - as long as the blame is put on Republicans

I better stock up on (more) food and ammo. Am planning on a “Bug In.”

The temporary EBT shutdown and ensuing chaos followed by the release of this letter certainly raise suspicions of a coordinated attack.

There was a time I would have called for a tin foil hat. Not now. What happened in Louisiana looks like a trial run. It was not that the EBT cards did not work but that they had no limit for a time. Get them in the stores then shut it down. It sure looks like the community organizer (a.k.a. communist agitator) now has the levers of government.

OK, everybody prep for roaming band of “the dependency class” and protect yourselves.

Crime will go up for sure.

All this is to scare spineless Reps into caving. Obama wants civil way in the streets, gives him his national emergency so he can call Martial law, seize and retain power. Call off elections.

Good to hear, and yeah I saw the humor in your post and just decided to play along too :) While I think this is all a scare tactic, one never knows. Sometimes events take on a life of their own. Perhaps another trip to the grocery store is in order very soon.

I ASSume the journalist from Utah called up to verify before running her story.

But if there are reporters here actually looking for a story, go do your job. Call up the USDA and find out if this is for real.

I’m just a dude posting on a public forum. Don’t believe everything you read on the interwebz!

This must be bogus. It’s just too good to be true.

What exactly is the reason for the cutoff?

Obama has decided it is time to show Bitter Clingers who is really in charge.
