Smoke Seen Pouring from Chimney at Russian Consulate in San Francisco

Source - AP

This report was just a short bulletin.....the headline was all the AP had on this.

Then I found one other source with slightly more info....here's an excerpt:

Firefighters who arrived at the scene were not allowed to enter the building Friday. An Associated Press reporter heard people who came from inside the building tell firefighters that there was no problem and that consulate staff were burning unidentified items in a fireplace. The consulate's workers are hurrying to shut one of Russia's oldest consulates in the U.S.

I figured they were burning papers they don't want us to see. But what really gets me is how rapidly this conflict between the US and Russia is escalating. I don't know if NK has anything to do with it......but it seems that WW3 is around the corner.

But where will it start?

What color was the smoke?

This is how they announce their new Tzars

Naw, too much smoke, huh

ruskies up to something big the way the market went this week...its duck and cover.....Gold startin to runnup and Siver more importantly

the friggin Euro.....stmpin the dollar....not actually, does it count if the central bank is tanking the dollar on purpose, else the bond market is over with< dangling participle, right there man

anyway the Euro is the new safe haven.....holding my long.....its not really that long, im a liar...he....he

Oh, it has already started. It is a real thing. I'd clear your calendar if I were you.

This is a drill?

Maybe it was fizzile material...everybody duck down, put their heads between their legs, and kiss their ass goodbye!

I mean really, this is a big girl's blouse stuff.

This is kinda what chimneys are for................

I would say world war 3 started with Gulf war 1, Then desert storm and so on...

It's a luke warm war....mostly economic based as corporations battle back and forth.

It could become hot very soon.....and I mean like VERY soon folks.

So were they burning Donnie's IOU's?

Standard procedure.

1. Shred confidential papers
2. Burn incriminating papers

It is when you throw shredded papers into a fire to burn them.

I think they were burning more than papers but who knows what would cause the smoke seen in the picture , definitely house cleaning before their eviction.

They were given 2 days to close their consulate in San Francisco I would guess that would mean a lot of frenzy shredding and burning of documents.

All them ties to Nancy Pelosi and the rest of the Democrats they bought had to go up in smoke fast then.

Why burn trumps?
Those still have some value.
More likely burning Hillary's.
Those are worthless now.

"Summer" in SF isn't like summer anywhere else. Still odd.

Silver is moving fast at the moment , which means that their is fear in the air. Missiles eat the stuff up fast, and stocks are down.

Not really. They were told to close the place down. Any sensitive documents get shredded, then burned. They probably have a small incinerator, but a lot of documents to burn so are using the fireplace as well to get it all done in time to close the doors.
