A week of protests in St. Paul over the Enbridge Line 3 pipeline project last month ended in a pair of law enforcement encounters with vastly different outcomes. Public Safety Commissioner John Harrington hailed his department's work on Aug. 27 negotiating the removal of a teepee that no longer had a permit to be on the Capitol grounds as a "triumph" of community centered policing. The next day, however, police arrested 69 people outside Gov. Tim Walz's residence as a demonstration escalated to...

About half of Minnesotans now receiving unemployment aid will see their jobless benefits end this weekend as several programs Congress put into place as a pandemic-related safety net expire. In all, about 100,000 people will get their final payments in the coming weeks, and the $300 a week provided as an enhanced benefit will also come to an end. Many workers have depended on those stepped-up federal benefits to pay their bills, and afford rent and groceries in the last year and a half....
WASHINGTON - The collapse of the Afghan government, a surge of COVID-19 cases caused by the delta variant, devastating weather events, a disappointing jobs report. What next? After a torrent of crises, President Joe Biden is hoping to turn the page on an unrelenting summer and refocus his presidency this fall around his core economic agenda. But the recent cascade of troubles is a sobering reminder of the unpredictable weight of the office and fresh evidence that presidents rarely have the...
Twice a week, a group of state leaders gather to hear the painful stories that just keep coming. A corrections officer told them how his colleagues slept on cots in their garages and icehouses in their driveways to avoid contaminating family members. One Cub Foods meat cutter described getting COVID and fearing he would die, lose his pension and leave his family with nothing. A former COVID unit nurse said while she was called a hero, the praise didn't protect her from exposure or prevent her...

Guests at all performances at the Orpheum, State and Pantages venues will have to do the same, Hennepin Theatre Trust announced this week. The vaccination or test requirements,...

A group of parents with students in schools that have not mandated masks has sued the state of Minnesota and Gov. Tim Walz, arguing that allowing schools to operate without mask requirements puts students at risk and violates their constitutional right to an "adequate" education.

None of the parents were identified in the suit, but Marshall Tanick, one of the...
