After the tragic events of Hurricane Sandy, some newspapers started spreading the message that this event might have been engineered by none other than Barack Obama. It was believed that the president used The High-Frequency Active Auroral Research Program to create the hurricane, and some people even spoke about this being a way for the president to be reelected. Conspiracy theorists also claim that the government uses the Alaska-based program to change the weather using electromagnetic waves, which basically means that Obama controlled the weather.
