  • At a growing Minneapolis homeless camp, a glimmer of hope for struggling families

    Sep 5, 2018

    One blanket and one bag of clothes. That’s all that Denise Deer and her four children, ages 4 to 16, each held in their hands when they arrived at a homeless encampment in south Minneapolis. Together they found a patch of worn grass near another family and waited with trepidation as the skies darkened. “All I could think was, ‘What are we all doing here?’ ” Deer said. http://www.startribune.com/at-a-growing-minneapolis-homeless-camp-a-glimmer-of-hope-for-struggling-families/492353631/...

  • Rancorous, partisan start for Kavanaugh high court hearing

    Sep 5, 2018

    WASHINGTON — Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh declared fervently at his Senate confirmation hearing Tuesday the court "must never, never be viewed as a partisan institution." But that was at the end of a marathon day marked by rancorous exchanges between Democrats and Republicans, including dire Democratic fears that he would be President Donald Trump's advocate on the high court. The week of hearings on Kavanaugh's nomination began with a sense of inevitability that the 53-year-old appellate judge eventually will be confirmed, perhaps i...

  • Woodward book puts White House back in damage-control mode

    Sep 5, 2018

    WASHINGTON — An incendiary tell-all book by a reporter who helped bring down President Richard Nixon set off a firestorm in the White House on Tuesday, with its descriptions of current and former aides calling President Donald Trump an "idiot" and a "liar," disparaging his judgment and claiming they plucked papers off his desk to prevent him from withdrawing from a pair of trade agreements. The book by Washington Post journalist Bob Woodward is the latest to throw the Trump administration into damage-control mode with explosive anecdotes and c...

    Sep 5, 2018

    MOUNT HOLLY, N.J. — The lawyer for a homeless man in Philadelphia whose selflessness led to donations of over $400,000 through an online fundraising page said Tuesday that all the money is gone.

    Sep 5, 2018

    More than 38,000 Medicare beneficiaries with health plans from Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Minnesota are wrongly receiving termination notices, prompting the Eagan-based insurer to begin calling subscribers to explain the mistake.

    Sep 5, 2018

    Sep 5, 2018

  • Minneapolis officials blame growing police records backlog on tech troubles, staffing shortages

    Sep 5, 2018

    The Minneapolis Police Department's records office is weeks behind in processing public-records requests, creating a backlog that is being blamed on staffing shortages and the growing pains of implementing a new computer system. Nearly two months after its launch, department officials maintain that the new system is working as designed. But problems with querying the Police Information Management System (PIMS) are testing their ability to respond to even the most basic inquiries in a timely manner.
