DULUTH - Josh Haug patiently folded each towel from a massive green bin at Essentia Health's fitness center in Duluth on Tuesday, stacking them in neat piles. The 41-year-old, who has an intellectual disability, spends two shifts a week laundering and delivering clean towels to gym-goers - and earning more than minimum wage. It's a dramatic departure from the nearly two decades when he received "pennies on the dollar" to complete menial tasks at a segregated facility alongside dozens of other...

WASHINGTON — The fate of former President Donald Trump's attempt to return to the White House is in the hands of the U.S. Supreme Court. On Thursday, the justices will hear arguments in Trump's appeal of a Colorado Supreme Court ruling that he is not eligible to run again for president because he violated a provision in the 14th Amendment preventing those who ''engaged in insurrection'' from holding office. Many legal observers expect the nation's highest court will reverse the Colorado ruling rather than remove the leading contender for the R...
With a CPR mannequin laid out on a table next to him, Cottage Grove Fire Captain Nick Arrigoni on Wednesday told a few dozen East Ridge High School basketball players how to save a life when someone's heart stops. His voice rising above the din of other athletes working out in the school's gymnasium, Arrigoni told the players how to assess the victim, call 911 and set their phone on speaker mode, and then quickly begin chest compressions at a rate of 100 to 120 beats per minute.

NEW YORK CITY - Every Egg McMuffin sold in the U.S. now uses cage-free eggs after McDonald's and supplier Cargill achieved the milestone two years ahead of schedule. McDonald's last year bought 2 billion eggs, all from Cargill. Many of those eggs come from Minnesota. Forsman Farms invested millions to build a cage-free facility in Renville, Minn., to help meet the pledge McDonald's set in 2015 to use 100% cage-free eggs at its U.S. locations. https://www.startribune.com/mcdon...

NEW YORK — Members of the Guardian Angels roughed up a man during a live interview on Fox News Tuesday night, then misidentified him as a ''migrant'' in a primetime segment meant to highlight disorder and crime caused by new arrivals to New York City.

As some Guardian Angels began leaving Sliwa's side to attend to an off-screen d...
