MINNEAPOLIS (WCCO) Residents of a Minnesota town near the South Dakota border are being asked to conserve water in the effort to battle a raging grain elevator fire.
The Big Stone County Sheriff’s Office says crews were called to the Wheaton-Dumont Elevator in Clinton Sunday at about 10:45 a.m. on a report of smoke seen billowing from an upper grain tower.
Several neighboring agencies were called in to assist, as the fire spread to more towers and to the business office. Residents in a three-block area of the elevator were evacuated for several hours.
Her views reflect concerns being expressed on both the left and the right.
One thing she doesn’t mention: The Russians will be quick to fill the vacuum that we leave and start exerting their influence in the country and the region.
From an appearance by Clinton Sunday on CNN:
“It’s one thing to pull out troops that have been supporting security in Afghanistan, supporting the Afghan military, leaving it pretty much to fend for itself, but we can’t afford to walk away from the consequences of that decision,” Clinton said.
How do we help and protect the many, many thousands of Afghans who worked with the United States and NATO, who worked with American and other NATO-connected contractors who stood up and spoke out for women’s rights and human rights?” she asked.
