Bulletins and News Discussion from July 24th to July 30th, 2023 - Venezuela's 4,600,000th House

The Great Housing Mission of Venezuela, launched in 2011 by Hugo Chavez, is the most ambitious housing project in the country's history. This week, the 4,600,000th house was built, with a goal for 5 million homes by 2024 and beyond. The program has built 1,255 residential complexes on a total of 9,837 hectares, an area equivalent to six times the Swiss city of Geneva.

The program additionally provides social infrastructure like schools, subsidized food markets, and recreational and green spaces. Over 70% of constructions are self-managed by communities, with financial and logistics support from the government. Communities also provide each other with materials - from each according to their supplies, to each according to their needs. Russian, Chinese, and Belarusian companies have helped supply the program over the years.

In Antímano Parish in southwestern Caracas, a group of predominantly women came together in 2015 and trained in construction, cleared land, and then built apartments while under the pressure of food and materials shortages and electricity blackouts due to the United States' sanctions campaign.

Claudia Tisoy, a mother and self-trained plumber, said “This goes beyond building homes for our families, we are also building the future of our country, with women leading the way. This is what the socialist horizon is all about.”^VA

Biden’s dog bit seven secret service agents
US President Joe Biden’s dog bit seven people in a four-month period, including a Secret Service agent who was hospitalized with arm and leg injuries, according to internal emails obtained by conservative activists. The dog is the second of Biden’s canine companions to terrorize the White House.
The most serious incident took place last November, when the then one-year-old German shepherd – named ‘Commander’ – came down a flight of stairs and bit an agent who was sitting at the bottom with his arms folded. Commander bit the agent on his arm and his thigh, causing “a considerable amount of pain” and forcing the agent to shield himself with a steel cart as the dog “came after [him] again,” according to a Secret Service email published on Tuesday by Judicial Watch, a conservative watchdog group.
The agent was sent to a local hospital by the White House physician’s office, and was taken off active duty for three days following the attack.
“What a joke… if it wasn’t their dog he would already have been put down,” a friend of the agent wrote to his injured colleague two days later, adding that the “freaking clown needs a muzzle.”
Is this praxis?
I also love the idea of chud activists searching through internal emails to find secrets about Biden's stalinist woke agenda that he's enacting and just finding people complaining about Biden's dog lmfao
- A secret service agent needs to let Commissar go wild during a Mitch McConnell visit
- A dog that has been properly cared for will not bite people. The Bidens must be terrible dog owners who doesn't have the time, energy and/or ability to raise a dog properly.
  Don't get an animal if you can't take care of it.
- freaking clown needs a muzzle
  this part wasnt referring to the dog
  
  They really need to do something about this rabid dog thats hurting people all the time!
  And the one that keeps biting the agents is pretty bad too.
