WASHINGTON — Former FBI Director Robert Mueller was given sweeping power Wednesday to investigate Russian interference in the 2016 presidential campaign, with a broad mandate that could encompass any questionable actions of President Donald Trump's associates and possibly even the circumstances of last week's abrupt firing of James Comey. The Justice Department's appointment of Mueller as a special counsel is an acknowledgment of growing public demands to place the politically charged inquiry into the hands of an outside investigator with b...
Minnesota lawmakers voted overwhelmingly Wednesday to bring the state’s driver’s licenses in line with upgraded federal security standards, finally ensuring that Minnesotans won’t have to use passports to get through airport security.

Mark Dayton as expected, it will allow Minnesota to follow the other 49 U.S. states in moving to upgrade their licen...
If North Korea is confirmed as the culprit behind the massive ransomware attack known as WannaCry, it raises a question: Why would a country so unpopular around the world risk alienating its few remaining friends? Among the hardest hit of the 150 countries where the virus spread were China and Russia, North Korea’s traditional allies and its only defenders on the U.N. Security Council. Was Pyongyang trying to send them a message, strutting its technical prowess by holding their computers hostage? Or were the motives purely mercenary rather t...
TULSA, Okla. — A jury on Wednesday acquitted a white Oklahoma police officer who says she fired out of fear last year when she killed an unarmed black man with his hands held above his head. The family of Terence Crutcher burst into tears and expressed outrage after jurors found Tulsa officer Betty Jo Shelby not guilty of first-degree manslaughter in the Sept. 16 shooting. About 100 demonstrators later gathered outside the courthouse and some briefly blocked a main street. http://www.startribune.com/jury-to-hear-closing-argu...

PEMBROKE — Lumbee Tribal Council members are preparing to vote Thursday on a resolution reprimanding tribal administrators, including Chairman Harvey Godwin Jr., for using budgeted money for purposes not approved by the council.

The cleanup c...

For decades, the Oglala Sioux Tribe has called for an end to alcohol sales at a trading post commonly referred to as Whiteclay, located near the Pine Ridge Reservation border and established over 100 years ago for the sole purpose of dealing alcohol to the residents of Pine Ridge where alcohol sales are prohibited. On April 30, after more than a century, the external flow of alcohol from this beer-trading post onto the reservation, which has had so many negative consequences for the tribal nation, finally came to a halt. htt...
The family of Tammy Keeash and northern Ontario First Nations leaders say they are rejecting the premise of the Thunder Bay Police Service that the 17-year-old drowned in a river nearly 10 days ago. “There are no words to describe how I feel,” said Pearl Slipperjack, Keeash’s mother, as she spoke to the media at a Thunder Bay press conference on Wednesday. Slipperjack said she also lost her young son in 2010 while he was in care. https://www.thestar.com/news/canada/2017/05/17/first-nations-family-rejects-thunder-bay-police-e...

Allegations that President Trump asked fired FBI Director James Comey to quash an investigation into his former national security adviser Michael Flynn have caused some political analysts to resurrect a mechanism for the president’s removal from office: the 25th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution. Conservative columnist Ross Douthat made waves Wednesday morning with a column in the New York Times advocating the use of Section 4 of the 25th Amendment — rather than impeachment — to remove Trump from office. And this isn’t the first time it’s be...
