EL PASO, Texas - President Donald Trump charged ahead Monday with his pledge to build a wall at the U.S.-Mexico border, skimming over the details of lawmakers' tentative deal that would give him far less than he's been demanding and declaring he's "setting the stage" to deliver on his signature campaign promise. In the first dueling rallies of the 2020 campaign season, Trump's "Finish the Wall" rally in El Paso went head-to-head against counterprogramming by former Rep. Beto O'Rourke, a former...
A few hours after Sen. Amy Klobuchar joined the Democratic presidential race, Our Revolution Minnesota endorsed Sen. Bernie Sanders. A day earlier, the national Progressive Change Campaign Committee said it's backing Sen. Elizabeth Warren. The moves underscored a key question for the Minnesota senator's White House campaign: Is she progressive enough to win the nomination at a time when the party's most liberal wing is ascendant? http://www.startribune.com/winning-progressive...
The evidence showed that Sean Penoncello committed a litany of heinous crimes. He videotaped his sexual assaults of children, then shared them on the internet. He secretly installed cameras at a motel pool dressing room and recorded women and girls as they changed. The 45-year-old St. Louis County man had little chance at trial. Yet Penoncello pleaded not guilty, requiring his victims to testify at a federal trial in Minneapolis. After a jury convicted Penoncello in 2016, Judge Patrick Schiltz sentenced him to about 33 years in prison, saying...
Top Democratic leaders in Congress rebuked Minnesota Rep. Ilhan Omar on Monday for a tweet that implied money drives U.S. politicians' support for Israel, prompting the freshman Democrat to publicly apologize. In an extraordinary step, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and other Democratic leaders condemned a tweet Omar sent Sunday using the song lyric, "It's all about the Benjamins, baby" as hurtful and offensive. http://www.startribune.com/minnesota-rep-ilhan-omar-once-again-faces...
Twin Cities residents have been clearing store shelves of snow-related products. And for good reason. A new storm is set to dump 3 to 5 inches of snow Monday night into Tuesday. Right behind that is another system that on Thursday is set to sock parts of Minnesota with an undetermined amount of snow. http://www.startribune.com/storms-to-bring-more-snow-to-minnesota-tonight-and-more-later-this-week/505674762/...

Gov. Tim Walz congratulated 40 new U.S. citizens at a naturalization ceremony on Monday, encouraging them to get involved "in all aspects of civic life."

Since the Donald Trump’s escalator ride down at Trump Tower in 2015 when he launched his run for president and his demeaning words about Mexico sending rapists and criminals across the border, America has been held hostage and in a downward spiral with insult after insult from Trump. American Indians have had to live with his constant taunting of Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) by calling her Pocahontas. Trump’s inappropriate usage of Pocahontas’ name is a constant insult to the legacy of the historic Pocahontas, who was far different than...
The crisis of democracy that has attended Donald Trump’s Presidency has visibly manifested itself in challenges to the free press, the judiciary, and the intelligence agencies, but among its more corrosive effects has been the corruption of basic mathematics. Since the 2016 election, Trump has periodically rage-tweeted about an alleged three million non-citizens whose ballots delivered the popular-vote majority to Hillary Clinton. His fulminations were a fanciful extension of the Republican Party’s concern, despite all evidence to the con...
Of the 43.5 million of those providing unpaid care to an adult or child in the last year, AARP shares that 60 percent are women. Following a somewhat exhaustive search, no data seems to exist reflecting how the laundry and household chores are divided between men and women. Based upon calls to my show and conversations had with many male caregivers, however, a growing trend seems to show that while their wives struggle to care for an aging parent, many men seem to overlook the growing pile of...

TALLAHASSEE — Four years after lawmakers started a controversial teacher-bonus program, Gov. Ron DeSantis said Thursday he wants to scrap the “Best and Brightest” program and plow nearly $423 million into a new effort to reward teachers and principals. The Best and Brightest program has faced opposition, at least in part, because it considers teachers’ scores on SAT or ACT college-entrance exams in determining eligibility for bonuses. The use of those scores has drawn state and federal lawsuits arguing that the program discriminates against...
For some Minnesota students, gone are the snow days from school that can be spent on snowmen, sledding and drinking hot chocolate. Rather than racking up more days for students to make up later on, some school districts across the state are implementing what is called e-learning when school is canceled due to weather. http://www.startribune.com/online-learning-has-replaced-snow-days-in-some-minnesota-school-districts-and-others-may-follow/505540472/...
The nation's K-12 schools experienced 122 publicly reported cybersecurity incidents in 2018, more than half of which were caused or carried out by staff or students, and nearly 60 percent resulted in students' personal data being compromised. And that's likely just the tip of the iceberg, according to a report released Thursday by the K-12 Cybersecurity Resource Center, which noted that many more such breaches and attacks likely went undetected or unreported. http://blogs.edweek.org/edweek/DigitalEducation/2019/02/schools_cy...
