Reacting to a string of shootings that left three men dead in less than 12 hours, St. Paul Police Chief Todd Axtell is calling for a “full department mobilization,” including beefing up patrols citywide by bringing in officers who would normally be off. The nine-hour stretch of violence between Monday afternoon and early Tuesday unfolded across three different neighborhoods and in one case took the life of a man attempting to act as a good Samaritan. Axtell, at a news conference with Mayor Melvin Carter and community leaders Tuesday, cal...
WASHINGTON – A former Minnesota attorney general and an executive from 3M Co. faced off Tuesday before a congressional panel examining a product at the center of a national pollution scandal.

The proliferation of PFAS in the nation's drinking water, g...
WASHINGTON - President Donald Trump on Tuesday abruptly forced out John Bolton, his hawkish national security adviser with whom he had strong disagreements on Iran, Afghanistan and a cascade of other global challenges. The sudden shake-up marked the latest departure of a prominent voice of dissent from the president's inner circle, as Trump has grown less accepting of advice contrary to his instincts.

Perhaps more than at any time in history, Minnesota ruffed grouse hunters don’t know what to expect when they decamp to the woods on Saturday, opening day of the “ruffie” season. That’s because in the past 10 years or so the correlation between the spring drumming counts of these birds (which this spring were unchanged from 2018) and their fall population has weakened so much that the drumming survey is no longer considered a reliable predictor of fall grouse numbers. http://www.startribune.com/ruffed-grouse-hunters-unsure-h...

PEMBROKE, N.C. — Republicans and Democrats are working in a last-ditch effort to turn out voters from North Carolina’s Lumbee Tribe ahead of the critical special election in the 9th District. The tribe, the largest east of the Mississippi, could play a deciding factor in the race, which is among the first tests of the political landscape heading into the 2020 elections. Internal polls show Democrat Dan McCready and Republican state Sen. Dan Bishop in a dead heat ahead of Tuesday’s vote, and both sides concede that the race will likely be decid...
