  • Georgia tallies votes as US Senate control hangs in balance

    Jan 6, 2021

    ATLANTA - Georgia officials began counting the final votes of the nation's turbulent 2020 election season on Tuesday night as polls closed in two critical races that will determine control of the U.S. Senate and, in turn, the fate of President-elect Joe Biden's legislative agenda. The two Senate runoff elections are leftovers from the November general election, when none of the candidates hit the 50% threshold. Democrats need to win both races to seize the Senate majority - and, with it,...

    Jan 6, 2021

    Jan 6, 2021

    More than 84,000 people as of Tuesday morning had received first shots of COVID-19 vaccine in Minnesota, where extra doses in vials have stretched the limited initial supply. HealthPartners reported squeezing six doses out of almost all five-dose vials of Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine, meaning that its initial allotment of 10,000 doses by week's end could provide as many as 12,000 shots for doctors, nurses and other providers. "It's possible we will have a larger number of vaccinations than what our...

  • COVID masks for young athletes are worse than useless

    Jan 6, 2021

    On Jan. 4, sports from the youth to the high school level were scheduled to resume under new regulations from the Minnesota Department of Health. According to these new rules, all athletes must wear face coverings while competing in their sports (with exceptions given to wrestling, swimming, cheerleading and gymnastics). I have concerns with these rules as I see them posing undue hazards to our young athletes. I am a former multisport high school athlete and collegiate basketball player. I...

  • Minneapolis Park Board winds down last encampment, at Minnehaha Park

    Jan 6, 2021

    The dwindling population of the last homeless encampment in a Minneapolis park has limited time to pack up, even as the Minneapolis Park and Recreation Board began clearing the site. As the sun rose Tuesday over Minnehaha Regional Park, a backhoe and a Bobcat scooped up trash and uninhabited tents from the encampment just off Hiawatha Avenue. After the Park Board issued a Dec. 31 order to leave within three days, people living there had expected the camp to be disbanded Tuesday. Park Board...

    Jan 6, 2021

    BEMIDJI -- The three successful incumbents in Beltrami County's 2020 elections were sworn in for new terms on Tuesday, with one of them also taking on a new role.

  • Attorney General Ellison sues to block Trump Administration's attempts to shield predatory lenders from state usury laws

    Jan 6, 2021

    January 5, 2021 (SAINT PAUL) – Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison today joined a coalition of eight attorneys general in suing to stop a new Trump Administration rule to allow predatory lenders to evade state interest-rate caps, called “usury” laws. The new agency rule would enable predatory lenders to circumvent usury laws through “rent-a-bank” schemes, in which federally regulated banks act as lenders in name only and attempt to pass along their exemption from state law to predatory lenders backing the loans. In September, AG Ellison c...

  • Biden firm on uranium-mining ban around 'jewel' of the Grand Canyon

    Jan 6, 2021

    WASHINGTON – For four years, the Trump administration took steps to boost uranium mining for what it called national security reasons, a move environmentalists saw as an attempt to open the door to mining near the Grand Canyon. President-elect Joe Biden may be ready to shut that door for good. "I can't believe I have to say this, but we can't let Donald Trump open up the Grand Canyon for uranium mining," Biden tweeted in August, after a Trump administration task force on nuclear fuel proposed r...
