  • More than 500,000 mail ballots were rejected in the primaries. That could make the difference in battleground states this fall.

    Aug 24, 2020

    More than 540,000 mail ballots were rejected during primaries across 23 states this year - nearly a quarter in key battlegrounds for the fall - illustrating how missed delivery deadlines, inadvertent mistakes and uneven enforcement of the rules could disenfranchise voters and affect the outcome of the presidential election. The rates of rejection, which in some states exceeded those of other recent elections, could make a difference in the fall if the White House contest is decided by a close...

  • Minnesota's OSHA hits two Twin Cities hospitals with penalties over COVID-19

    Aug 24, 2020

    State health and safety inspectors have penalized two Twin Cities hospitals for serious problems related to insufficient COVID-19 protections for front-line caregivers. North Memorial Health Hospital in Robbinsdale and United Hospital in St. Paul were each hit with $2,100 citations after workers complained to the state about an array of allegedly unsafe practices related to breathing devices and other personal protective equipment (PPE). All told, inspectors from Minnesota's Occupational Safety...

  • Residents flee as Gulf Coast sees possible tandem hurricanes

    Aug 24, 2020

    NEW ORLEANS - The Gulf Coast braced Sunday for a potentially devastating hit from twin hurricanes as two dangerous storms swirled toward the U.S from the Gulf of Mexico and the Caribbean. Officials feared a history-making onslaught of life-threatening winds and flooding along the coast, stretching from Texas to Alabama. A storm dubbed Marco grew into a hurricane Sunday as it churned up the Gulf of Mexico toward Louisiana. Another potential hurricane, Tropical Storm Laura, lashed the Dominican...

  • In secretly recorded audio, President Trump's sister says he has 'no principles' and 'you can't trust him'

    Aug 24, 2020

    Maryanne Trump Barry was serving as a federal judge when she heard her brother, President Trump, suggest on Fox News, "maybe I'll have to put her at the border" amid a wave of refugees entering the United States. At the time, children were being separated from their parents and put in cramped quarters while court hearings dragged on. "All he wants to do is appeal to his base," Barry said in a conversation secretly recorded by her niece, Mary L. Trump. "He has no principles. None. None. And his...

  • Nelson Cruz homer in ninth inning helps Twins hold off Royals 5-4

    Aug 24, 2020

    KANSAS CITY, MO. – The Twins took off for Cleveland following the game with every right to wish the Royals a good riddance. "This is a team that's played us exceptionally tough," Twins manager Rocco Baldelli said. "They've beat us up a little bit at times even and to be able to come out on top and go out on a high note was good for our guys." Maybe it's fitting that the Twins escaped with a 5-4 win over the Royals on Sunday in the final meeting of the regular season between the two teams. The s...

  • Vacationers, migrants drive Italy's surge in COVID cases

    Aug 24, 2020

    ROME - Sicily's governor has ordered all migrant residences on the Italian island to be shut down by Monday, part of a push-back by Italian regions alarmed by a surge in COVID-19 cases a few weeks before schools are to reopen. But while some new migrants have tested positive, vacationers returning from Mediterranean Sea resorts abroad as well from the Italian island of Sardinia lately have accounted for far more of Italy's new coronavirus infections. On Saturday, Italy registered 1,071 new...

  • Minnesota briefs: White Earth Nation voters legalize medical marijuana

    Brooks Johnson|Aug 24, 2020

    White Earth Nation voters approved a measure last week to legalize the production, regulation and distribution of medical marijuana within the northwestern Minnesota reservation. The measure allows the Tribal Council to create its own rules governing medical cannabis on the reservation that wouldn’t be subject to Minnesota’s medical marijuana laws, which are considered among the most restrictive in the nation. In May, the Red Lake Nation became the first reservation in the state to allow cannabis cultivation and production for medical use. The...

  • Tying tradition to today: Red Lake hip-hop artist's new song involves local youth

    Aug 24, 2020

    RED LAKE -- Some Red Lake Boys and Girls Club youth who had been working on traditional dances for now-canceled powwows were recently given a unique opportunity to show off their skills. Red Lake hip-hop artist Thomas Barrett, who goes by the stage name Thomas X, gave the 9 to 14-year-old's a virtual stage in his new music video. "All of these kids would take any opportunity to get in their regalia," he said. His recently released song, "I'm Anishinaabe," blends contemporary powwow singing with...

  • Living with bears in Minnesota

    Aug 24, 2020

    If you live in Minnesota, you live in bear country. The black bear is an iconic species usually associated with Minnesota's north woods, and, while they are common throughout the forested northern and central portions of the state, they can live throughout the state, sometimes wandering into cities and towns. Black bears are naturally cautious animals that avoid human contact for their safety, but conflicts between people and bears can arise. To live peacefully with bears, humans play a part by...

  • First ever double hurricane could hit the Gulf of Mexico

    Aug 24, 2020

    Next week for the first time on record, two hurricanes could hit the Gulf of Mexico at the same time. Twice before, in 1959 and 1933, two tropical storms have entered the Gulf at the same time. But never before have both been hurricanes. It might not go that way. Only one of the storm systems has yet strengthened into a tropical storm - a dangerous cyclone, but not yet a hurricane. The other remains a tropical depression, and its future is still unclear. But forecast models have suggested the...

  • Stakes high for Supreme Court as Trump battles for reelection

    Aug 24, 2020

    President Trump has a chance to transform the Supreme Court into a conservative supermajority if he wins another four-year term, underscoring the potential stakes of this year's election for future court decisions on everything from the Second Amendment to abortion. If reelected, Trump would likely get the opportunity to replace ailing liberal Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, 87, and possibly fellow liberal Justice Stephen Breyer, 82, which would give conservatives a commanding 6-3 or 7-2 majority. It would also move the court’s fulcrum to the r...

    Aug 24, 2020

    Minneapolis, MN (Friday August 21, 2020) “The Police Officers Federation of Minneapolis has a mission to support its officers as public city employees and to ensure they are treated fairly by political leaders as they handle budget and policy decisions. Like other unions, it exists to advocate for its members and as a Board we take that role very seriously, particularly as our membership has been under attack from politicians who have failed Minneapolis. Politicians and activists don’t get to select who union members choose as their lea...
