  • Senate Republicans propose free insulin program

    Sep 20, 2019

    Diabetics could get free insulin through their doctors under a proposal Senate Republicans offered Thursday, but Democrats said the plan doesn't do enough for people in emergency situations. While lawmakers in both parties say they want to help diabetics who are overwhelmed by high insulin prices, the skeptical DFL response to the Republican plan underscored how the two sides remain far apart on how to structure and pay for a new state insulin program after an 11th-hour deal was derailed in the...

  • Whistleblower complaint about Trump centers on Ukraine

    WASHINGTON – A whistleblower complaint about President Donald Trump made by an intelligence official centers on Ukraine, according to two people familiar with the matter, which has set off a struggle between Congress and the executive branch.

  • Twins hit four homers in win, but Kyle Gibson struggles in start

    Sep 20, 2019

    The Twins sliced another game off their magic number on Thursday. Whether they're close to slicing another pitcher out of their postseason rotation is becoming an urgent question. Nelson Cruz homered twice, leaving him one short of 400 for his career, and Miguel Sano and Mitch Garver also connected, helping the Twins rally for an 8-5 victory over the Royals at Target Field. The victory maintained Minnesota's four-game lead over Cleveland in the AL Central, but with just nine games remaining,...

  • Shortage of workers continues to affect job growth in Minnesota

    Sep 20, 2019

    Minnesota managed to end August with 1,100 more jobs, but a continued shortage of workers mixed with myriad other economic concerns continue to affect growth in the state. The hiring uptick halted months of increases in Minnesota’s unemployment rate, state officials said Thursday. The unemployment rate has been rising on and off since October 2018, when it was 2.8%. The rate hit 3.4% in July and slid to 3.3% in August. http://www.startribune.com/shortage-of-workers-continues-to-affect-job-growth-in-minnesota/560821952/...

    DUBAI, United Arab Emirates - Any attack on Iran by the U.S. or Saudi Arabia will spark an "all-out war," Tehran's top diplomat warned Thursday, raising the stakes as Washington and Riyadh weigh a response to a drone-and-missile strike on the kingdom's oil industry that shook global energy markets. The comments by Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif represented the starkest warning yet by Iran in a long summer of mysterious attacks and incidents following the collapse of Iran's 2015 nuclear...

    Sep 20, 2019

    WASHINGTON - The House voted overwhelmingly Thursday to keep the government open through late November, setting up a huge showdown later this year over President Donald Trump's border wall that could force another shutdown before Thanksgiving. The short-term nature of Thursday's legislation was the result of failed efforts to complete a broader spending package ahead of Sept. 30, when government funding is set to expire for multiple agencies. The need for the stopgap measure shows how fundamental spending issues between Democrats and...
