WASHINGTON — Former Trump campaign chairman Paul Manafort made several attempts to tamper with witnesses in his ongoing criminal cases, prosecutors said Monday as they asked a federal judge to consider revoking his house arrest. In a court filing, prosecutors working for special counsel Robert Mueller wrote that Manafort and one of his associates "repeatedly" contacted two witnesses in an effort to influence their testimony. The contacts occurred earlier this year, shortly after a grand jury returned a new indictment against Manafort and w...
Attorney General Lori Swanson jumped into the DFL primary for Minnesota governor on Monday, immediately shaking up the contest between state Rep. Erin Murphy and U.S. Rep. Tim Walz and complicating the Democratic effort to hold onto the state’s top political job. Swanson announced her plans at a hastily arranged, 20-minute news conference in Minneapolis. At her side was U.S. Rep. Rick Nolan of northeastern Minnesota, her newly minted lieutenant governor running mate. http://www.startribune.com/candidates-pivot-toward-primary...
BLUE EARTH, MINN. – Only a year ago, Tonya and Dale Hurley thought they had found a home for life in this southern Minnesota community of 3,400. But that was before four of their son’s high school football teammates allegedly beat him so brutally at a house party last fall that he lost consciousness. http://www.startribune.com/teen-pleads-guilty-to-sex-charge-in-blue-earth-football-beating/484477121/...
More than 500 religious leaders have signed a petition against Enbridge's proposed new oil pipeline across northern Minnesota, with several delivering a letter Monday afternoon to Gov. Mark Dayton and state utility regulators. The letter, signed by regional Protestant leaders and ministers of several faiths, called the proposed new Line 3 a "moral issue" — a threat to the environment and Minnesota's Ojibwe. http://www.startribune.com/minnesota-religious-leaders-oppose-new-enbridge-oil-pipeline/484501501/...
WASHINGTON — President Donald Trump claimed Monday he has an "absolute right" to pardon himself, part of an extraordinarily expansive vision of executive authority that is mostly untested in court and could portend a drawn-out fight with the prosecutors now investigating him. No need of a pardon anyway, Trump tweeted, because "I have done nothing wrong." In fact, his lawyers assert in a memo to special counsel Robert Mueller, it's impossible for him to have done anything wrong in the area of obstructing justice, an issue Mueller has been i...
BEMIDJI -- The third stop in the Advantage RV Modified Tour Series came to Bemidji Speedway Sunday night. Weather conditions early in the day were less than appealing with rainy, windy and dreary skies.

By late afternoon, the sun was shining and the cars and fans were on scene ready for racing action on the 1/4 mile oval. The Wissota Modified tour racers were racing for $1,500 to win on the fast track against some of the best...

Hiawatha schools sho...
WASHINGTON (AP) — Americans overwhelmingly believe teachers don’t make enough money, and half say they’d support paying higher taxes to give educators a raise. The findings of the new poll from The Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research come amid recent teacher strikes and other protests over low pay, tough classroom conditions and the amount of money allocated to public schools in several Republican-led states. https://apnews.com/d48bfef260b04f9a872d999256bb8004/AP-NORC-Poll:-Amid-strikes,-Americans-back-t...

(Bloomberg) -- Allergan Plc faced a skeptical appeals court Monday as the company defended its use of an American Indian tribe’s sovereign immunity to avoid challenges to its patents from generic-drug makers. Two of three judges on the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit in Washington questioned whether Allergan was seeking to circumvent review by the Patent and Trademark Office. The reviews are widely used by technology companies, banks and insurers who say it offers a way to weed out bad patents. https://www.bloo...
Calling the border with Mexico an “environmental disaster,” Interior Secy. Ryan Zinke has ordered both U.S. park rangers and park police to Arizona and New Mexico to help stop the movement of illegal immigrants into the country.

WASHINGTON — Environmental Protection Agency chief Scott Pruitt had a top aide seek a used mattress from the Trump International Hotel and perform other personal chores for him, according to an email and testimony from the aide released Monday.

Louellyn White came to Pennsylvania to search for graves of native children who died after their Carlisle Indian School masters sent them out to work as maids and farmhands. But as she hunted for burial records in the dusky, seldom-used library of the Byberry Quaker Meeting in Philadelphia, she made a horrifying discovery: a yellowed skull, labeled as Native American, set in a display case among a collection of rocks and fossils. http://cumberlink.com/news/local/state-and-regional/american-indian-nations-push-for-remains-to-...
National parks have been a centerpiece of America’s tourism culture since the late 19th century, after the colonialization and displacement of many of the Indigenous people of the West. But recently what’s been called “America’s best idea” has a new label: “loved to death.” Last year, about 330 million people visited the parks. That’s roughly 5 million more visits than the total U.S. population and almost 50 million more visits than in 2012. While visitation has increased, staffing levels have declined and the costs of overdue park infrastruc...
