If you are a member of a Native American tribe, it's more likely that you live in a city than on a reservation.

"I believe this is the first time a mayor from the Twin Cities come visit the...

DUBUQUE, Iowa - Back when he was still just teasing a presidential run, Beto O'Rourke told Vanity Fair he was "born to be in" the race. Now that he's campaigning to far greater media attention and much larger crowds than many Democrats who've been competing longer, they are taking offense at the former Texas congressman's sense of entitlement. Minnesota Sen. Amy Klobuchar drew the sharpest such contrast on Sunday, saying "I wasn't born to run. But I am running" while acknowledging, "Oh, that's...

DOVER, Del. - Did Joe Biden accidentally reveal his plans to run for the White House? Or was it just another slip of the tongue by the former vice president with a reputation for veering off script? In a keynote speech at a dinner for the Delaware Democratic Party, Biden boasted Saturday that he has "the most progressive record of anybody running." The only problem is that Biden hasn't announced whether he will launch a third run for the White House, despite repeatedly teasing the possibility....
Minnesota’s resident expert on Red Lake said zebra mussels recently confirmed in the North Woods walleye fishery will face a couple of unique growth obstacles and won’t destroy the lake’s trademark hue. The invasive mollusks are expected to spread and attach en masse to offshore rocks and other substrate, but the coming and going of bottom-scraping ice could keep the mussels out of critical walleye spawning grounds near shore, said Tony Kennedy, the large lake specialist in Bemidji for the Department of Natural Resources. Red Lake also is home...
