Tribune Opinion: Murdock City Council must learn from its poor virtual meeting
The Murdock City Council failed in their attempt at transparency during the council s meeting Wednesday when they made a decision on the conditional use permit for the Asatru Folk Assembly, an alleged white supremacist religious group, to use the abandoned Lutheran church it purchased as its third “hof” in the United States. The council did not hold a roll call vote as required by the Minnesota Open Meeting Law.

Two American bomber aircraft have flown over a swath of the Middle East, sending what U.S. officials say is a message of deterrence to Iran. The flight of the two massive B-52H Stratofortress bombers over the region on Thursday was the second such mission in less than a month. It was designed to underscore Americaâs continuing commitment to the Middle East even as President Donald Trump s administration withdraws thousands of troops from Iraq and Afghanistan.
