WASHINGTON — President Donald Trump walked out of his negotiating meeting with congressional leaders Wednesday — "I said bye-bye," he tweeted— as efforts to end the 19-day partial government shutdown fell into deeper disarray over his demand for billions of dollars to build a wall on the U.S.-Mexico border. In a negotiating session that was over almost as soon as it began, Democrats went to the White House asking Trump to reopen the government. Trump renewed his call for money for his signature campaign promise and was rebuffed. Repub...
The government shutdown is creating delays for house buyers, particularly in parts of Minnesota outside the Twin Cities. It is also slowing financing for small business owners and may delay an acquisition by the state's biggest company.

In a victory for relatives of children placed in foster care, a Minnesota appeals court has ruled that child welfare agencies in Minnesota must go through a formal court proceeding before ruling out family members as adoptive parents for neglected children.

BEMIDJI -- A hearing will be held Wednesday, Jan. 23, to determine whether or not a juvenile will be charged as an adult after allegedly assaulting a man in broad daylight downtown.
