NEWARK - Emiljana Kodra felt thrilled to land a job as a U.S. immigration agent after serving as a police officer in Baltimore, until one of her new supervisors started texting her. He asked what kind of underwear she wore. He wondered about the warmth of her body. At the office, he allegedly grabbed her, according to a federal lawsuit she filed against the Department of Homeland Security. After she resisted him, Kodra said, she was transferred to one of U.S. Immigration and Customs...

RAFAH, Gaza Strip ? An aid ship loaded with some 200 tons of food set sail for Gaza on Tuesday in a pilot program for the opening of a sea corridor to the territory, where the five-month-old Israel-Hamas war has driven hundreds of thousands of Palestinians to the brink of starvation. The push to get food in by sea ? along with a recent campaign of airdrops into isolated northern Gaza ? highlighted the international community's frustration with the growing humanitarian crisis and its inability...
WASHINGTON ? The White House knew it had a political problem on its hands when a special counsel report questioned President Joe Biden's memory last month, but Biden saw a much more personal affront as well. Robert Hur, who had been appointed to investigate whether Biden mishandled classified documents, wrote that the president couldn't recall in an interview with prosecutors the date when his adult son, Beau, died of cancer. It was a shocking contention about a keystone event in Biden's life,...
When the U.S. Postal Service launched Project Safe Delivery last year, officials pledged they would be ''doubling down" on their efforts to combat growing rates of letter carrier robberies. The crackdown has led to hundreds of arrests, and robberies slowed toward the end of the year. But, overall, the number of postal carriers who were robbed in 2023 rose again and the number who were injured nearly doubled as criminals continue to target carriers for their antiquated ''arrow keys'' that allow...

GOP state Sen. Steve Drazkowski proposed a motion to eliminate remote and proxy voting during a rules committee meeting last week. Four years after the COVID-19 pandemic began, legislators are still allowed to cast votes remotely under certain circumstances. On Monday, Senate Majority Leader Erin Murphy,...

Saint Paul, MN –The Office of Cannabis Management (OCM) announced that it will begin enforcement to prevent the illegal sales of raw cannabis flower across Minnesota. The OCM has entered into an agreement with the Minnesota Department of Health (MDH) to add inspection capacity for illegal sales of raw cannabis flower. While Minnesota has legalized the sale of hemp-derived cannabinoid consumer products, selling raw cannabis flower is currently illegal because OCM has not yet issued any cannabis business licenses. OCM has received complaints o...
St. Paul, MN – One week after funding 24 projects to expand broadband infrastructure in Minnesota, the Department of Employment and Economic Development (DEED) today announced it is accepting applications for another $50 million in broadband development grants. “As a resident of Greater Minnesota, I know how important broadband is to our businesses, families and communities – and how difficult it is when internet is neither high-speed nor reliable,” said DEED Commissioner Matt Varilek. “The State of Minnesota and our partners continue to method...

Maybe it was because her nomination was the first for a Native actress. Maybe it was the optimism of film critics at her chances. Maybe it was the reality that Native people have been holding their breath for nearly a century waiting for Hollywood to see us. Perhaps it was simply Lily Gladstone's own poise and grace in carrying the hopes of her people. Whatever the reason (and probably for all these reasons), Native people struggled to make sense of Gladstone losing to actress Emma Stone for...
