A half-century after high school kids in California's Marin County started using "4:20" as code for smoking marijuana, political advisers to the 81-year-old teetotaler president, Joe Biden, began signaling that he was hip to reefer slang. The Department of Health and Human Services announced at 4:20 p.m. one day last year that it was moving forward with a plan to reschedule the drug. President Biden and Vice President Harris each tweeted at 4:20 p.m. on April 20 of this year that they supported...
After more than six months of war, the children of the Gaza Strip have many questions their parents cannot answer. When will the war stop? How many more nights will they sleep on the floor? When can they go back to school? Some still ask after classmates who have been killed. The adults don't know what to say. They feel helpless, desperate and exhausted, they say - worn out by the challenge of tending to visible wounds and those their children try to hide. To report this story, Washington Post...
DULUTH - The new Itasca County jail includes a two-story display of the Ten Commandments, a choice that's come under fire by many who discovered it and other religious quotes on the walls during recent tours of the northeast Minnesota facility. The display was so overwhelming it made Grand Rapids resident Dana Butler tremble, she said, while she walked through the new $75 million jail last week. "The whole time I was thinking if I were in here, it would be very clear to me that I was not in a...

CHICAGO – Before the Twins reeled off 10 straight wins, transforming into the hottest team in the major leagues, they viewed this part of their schedule as a chance to dig themselves out of a hole they created. The Twins weren't playing well through the first three weeks of the season, but they had three straight series against the Chicago White Sox and Los Angeles Angels, teams with two of the three worst records in the American League. "We knew we had an opportunity coming into this stretch t...
A large swath of Twins fans either stayed up late Tuesday or woke up early Wednesday to receive some very unpleasant news. Comcast, a huge cable TV provider in Minnesota and second-largest in the United States with a reported 14.1 million subscribers in 2023, has dropped Bally Sports channels from its lineup after the two sides failed to reach an agreement on a carriage deal. The team most immediately impacted is the Twins, as I talked about on Wednesday's Daily Delivery podcast....
MOUNT HOREB, Wis. - Police shot and killed a Wisconsin student outside a middle school after receiving a report of someone with a weapon, the state's attorney general said in the first law enforcement briefing on an incident that sent children fleeing amid gunfire. Authorities in Mount Horeb had previously said an active shooter who never got inside was ''neutralized'' outside the district's middle school building Wednesday. Attorney General Josh Kaul said at the news briefing that no one...
The federal government is removing some barriers to Minnesota's budding marijuana industry by reclassifying the drug as less dangerous. If the decision to move marijuana from a Schedule I to a Schedule III controlled substance goes forward as planned, businesses could take advantage of normal tax write-offs, something state-licensed growers and dispensaries around the country are unable to do under current IRS rules. That will add up to millions in savings for Minnesota cannabis businesses,...

The findings come as the Biden administration is seeking to stabilize U.S.-China relations to avoid miscalculations that could result in clashes, while still t...
Caitlin Efta's path to becoming a teacher began with helping her younger siblings with homework, navigating their daily hurdles and cheering them on from the front row at all of their sporting events. This passion led her to pursue a career in teaching when she left for college. But the journey hasn't been easy. The financial burden of unpaid teaching experiences, often far from home, has forced Efta and many of her peers to question their fate as educators. "It's just a lot of hard work, a lot...
