  • Vikings beat Raiders 3-0 as Justin Jefferson is injured again and Joshua Dobbs is benched

    Dec 11, 2023

    LAS VEGAS - The Vikings ended their two-game losing streak, with a 3-0 victory over the Raiders on Sunday. But they'll go home with a long list of concerns. The game was the first to end with a 3-0 score since Nov. 26, 2007, when the Steelers beat the Dolphins, and the Vikings scored the only points of the day late in the fourth quarter on their second drive with Nick Mullens at quarterback after coach Kevin O'Connell benched Joshua Dobbs. Dobbs finished the day 10 of 23 for 63 yards, while...

  • Are Minneapolis City Council members overpaid? And is Mayor Frey underpaid?

    Dec 11, 2023

    Minneapolis City Council members are paid more than most of their peers - and the mayor is paid less - in comparable cities across the nation. That's the conclusion of a study commissioned by council members, who responded to it with quiet. The city's 13 council members are currently paid $109,846 a year, and Mayor Jacob Frey is paid $140,814 annually. Neither of those figures will change for at least the next two years - the end of the council members' elected terms - according to a resolution...

  • Battles rage across Gaza as Israel indicates it's willing to fight for months or more to beat Hamas

    Dec 11, 2023

    DEIR AL-BALAH, Gaza Strip - Battles raged across Gaza on Sunday as Israel indicated it was prepared to fight for months or longer to defeat the territory's Hamas rulers, and a key mediator said willingness to discuss a cease-fire was fading.

  • Drug lords go on killing spree to hunt down corrupt officers who stole shipment in Mexico's Tijuana

    Dec 11, 2023

    MEXICO CITY - A recent killing spree in the Mexican border city of Tijuana could have been lifted from a TV script: enraged drug lords hunting down corrupt police officers who stole a drug shipment. Two of the officers suspected of the theft have been killed, prosecutors say. But so have at least three other officers, according to the city's former police chief, suggesting the cartel believed to have owned the drugs may have launched a generalized retribution. It is the latest blow for Tijuana...

  • Biden and Congress are mulling big changes on immigration. What are they and what could they mean?

    Dec 11, 2023

    WASHINGTON - President Joe Biden is taking a more active role in Senate negotiations over changes to the immigration system that Republicans are demanding in exchange for providing money to Ukraine in its fight against Russia and Israel for the war with Hamas. The Democratic president has said he is willing to make ''significant compromises on the border'' as Republicans block the wartime aid in Congress.

  • Why Minnesota could soon face a budget shortfall

    Dec 11, 2023

    The good news delivered by Minnesota leaders Wednesday is that the state projects a $2.4 billion surplus for the two-year budget cycle that began in July. Then came the bad news: Lawmakers might not get to spend it, a disappointing revelation for constituencies who are amassing legislative wish-lists. How could that be? The surplus will be consumed in the coming years by rising costs of state services, such as long-term care for people with disabilities and free school meals for everyone. If...

  • Biden's focus on bashing Trump takes a page from the winning Obama and Bush reelection playbooks

    Dec 11, 2023

    WASHINGTON - President Joe Biden's campaign manager recently sent a fundraising email meant to reassure supporters worried about the Democrat's reelection chances, urging them to take a ''quick walk down memory lane.'' Julie Chavez Rodriguez noted that many Democrats 12 years ago questioned whether President Barack Obama would win a second term. Biden was Obama's vice president. ''Flash forward to November 6, 2012. I think you may remember the day,'' she wrote. Underneath was a photo of the...

    Dec 11, 2023

    BEMIDJI - Without anyone in his family already in the field, when Casey Dorr first decided he wanted to become a scientist, he didn't have many people he could talk to about what that decision meant. "When I decided I wanted to become a scientist in high school, I had no idea what that involved, and no one in my family did either," he recalled. "I just had a dream." As a first-generation descendant of the Mille Lacs Band of Ojibwe from Bemidji, Dorr wanted to combine his Indigenous heritage...
