KYIV, Ukraine - Russia unleashed a lethal barrage of strikes against multiple Ukrainian cities Monday, smashing civilian targets including downtown Kyiv where at least eight people were killed. Russian President Vladimir Putin later said the strikes on Ukraine came in response to Kyiv's "terrorist" action, including an attack on a bridge to Crimea. The intense, hours-long attack marked a sudden military escalation by Moscow. It came a day after Putin called the explosion Saturday on the huge...
RED LAKE - Red Lake Nation marched in solidarity to commemorate Indigenous Peoples Day on Monday with around 75 members completing a trek from the old trading post building to Red Lake Nation College. Sporting ribbon skirts and other traditional regalia, about 75 participants held up signs of support and marched along Highway 1 as a traveling drum group was pulled on a trailer about 3/4 of a mile to RLNC where a traditional walleye feast awaited them.

The union representing service workers at the University of Minnesota has authorized a strike, leaders announced Monday, noting that 93% of its members have voted in favor of the action. The Teamsters Local 320 union sued the university and its Board of Regents last month over claims of inadequate pay and employee discrimination that allegedly have violated the Public Employment Labor Relations Act. The workers involved in the potential strike help all over campus to serve food, clean...
Mayo Clinic is receiving a $100 million gift to expand its Rochester facility for patients who need proton beam radiation treatment. The gift from the Fred C. and Katherine B. Andersen Foundation of Bayport, Minn., will allow Mayo to nearly double appointments for the treatment, which delivers precise radiotherapy to cancerous tumors. Mayo doctors use the technology in cases where tumors are near or within vital organs, as well as for young people whose organs are still developing, because the...
In one of the more underrated scenes in "Bull Durham" - arguably the best sports movie of all-time, at least in my opinion - Tim Robbins' naive young character Nuke LaLoosh explains to Kevin Costner's crusty older character Crash Davis, "I love winning, man. I (expletive) love winning. You know what I'm saying? It's like, better than losing." Their minor league baseball team, the Durham Bulls, was riding a hot streak after a long stretch of losing. Combined with Vikings special teams coach Matt...
The franchise-record 17 consecutive passes Kirk Cousins completed to start Sunday's game were part of a game plan the quarterback said "put the wind at our backs," with plays that allowed him to find his first read in open space. The 17-play drive Cousins orchestrated to give the Vikings their final 29-22 lead over the Bears, Kevin O'Connell said, featured examples of Cousins "really playing quarterback [Sunday], as far as playing the game post-snap, throwing completions, being accurate." Later,...
It was near the end of the school day, and in a classroom with a tribal nation's flag hanging in a corner, the drummers were pounding - a group of nine fifth-graders and teacher Thomas Draskovic. Darwin Villeda, 10, had his eyes locked on three kids seated across from him, sensing his moment, and he took it. He raised his stick higher and sent it crashing down, helping propel the song to its finish while singing the Lakota lyrics. A Spanish speaker at home, Darwin was asked later if he...
A federal judge has rejected claims by environmental groups and Ojibwe bands that the Army Corps of Engineers failed to adequately review Enbridge's Line 3 pipeline. The controversial 340-mile oil pipeline across Minnesota opened a year ago, but one lawsuit challenging it had yet to be concluded - until Friday. "The court concludes that the Corps complied with its obligations to assess the environmental consequences associated with its permits to Enbridge," wrote Judge Colleen Kollar-Kotelly of...
WASHINGTON - A small-business advocacy group has filed a new lawsuit seeking to block the Biden administration's efforts to forgive student loan debt for tens of millions of Americans - the latest legal challenge to the program. The suit, filed Monday by the Job Creators Network Foundation, argues the Biden administration violated federal procedures by failing to seek public input on the program. It's one of a handful of lawsuits that have been filed by conservative business groups, attorneys...
Stand-up Trish Cook spent a recent Sunday evening telling jokes about her cranky mom into a dead mike for seven people. The performance, part of a comedy workshop at Minneapolis' Phoenix Theater, was far from a plum gig. But it was a natural pit stop on Cook's ongoing mission to educate, as well as entertain. Lesson No. 1: Indigenous people like her can be hilarious. That may come as a surprise to those whose only sightings of Native Americans in pop culture are limited to John Ford westerns...

BISMARCK, N.D. — Five tribes in North Dakota are seeking exclusive rights to host internet gambling and sports betting in the state, a monopoly worth millions, just a year after legislators turned aside a push by one big national player to allow it in the state. The tribes are turning to Republican Gov. Doug Burgum to approve the idea under tribal-state agreements known as compacts, the first of which was signed in 1992. The current compacts expire at the end of this year and only Burgum can approve them, said Deb McDaniel, North Dakota’s...
