  • Red Lake Welcome Sign Defaced With Nazi Swastika and Trump 2020 Vandalism

    Darren Thompson, Native News Online|Oct 19, 2020

    RED LAKE INDIAN RESERVATION - Yesterday morning, the Red Lake Nation was notified that a welcome sign to the reservation was vandalized with a Nazi swastika and the words "Trump 2020" in black spray paint. However, because the sign is off the reservation, the Red Lake Nation, including the Red Lake Police Department, couldn't do much to find out who was responsible for the damage. The welcome sign is one of four identical dual language signs at the Red Lake Indian Reservation's border informing...

  • A Tour of the New Red Lake Community Center - P2

    Michael Meuers|Oct 19, 2020

    It was Friday October 9 when I returned to Red Lake. It was one day shy of six months, my last visit being the March 10, Tribal Council meeting. It is the longest time without a visit in 26 years by far. COVID kept this Gichi-mookomaan in Bemijigamaag for long time with all events and powwows cancelled or postponed. The first thing I notice...curbs. Curbs? And isn't that dip down to Ogaakaaning-Ziibiing (Pike Creek) shallower? Hwy. 1 thru Red Lake wider with a fresh coat of blacktop? A new Day...

  • For Democrats, Biden's lead fuels uncomfortable sense of deja vu

    Oct 19, 2020

    WASHINGTON – The polls are once again delivering feel-good boosts to Democrats: Joe Biden beats President Donald Trump by 10, 11 or 12 points nationally, depending on the day. His edge in Michigan, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin averages eight. Experts promise better than 4-in-5 odds of a new president next year. But then the partisans remember that they have been here before, four years ago this week. The conflicting emotions can be overwhelming. "I am feeling anxious and trapped between a sense o...

  • Vikings fall to 1-5 after dismal 40-23 loss to the Falcons

    Oct 19, 2020

    Slipping on a pair of headphones to assess a game in which his team had allowed 40 points for the second time this year, in a building where it had never done so before this season, Vikings coach Mike Zimmer sounded dumbstruck about how it had all happened. "It's hard for me to figure out how we can continue to get better and play like we did a week ago and then play as poorly as we did this week," he said after a 40-23 loss to the previously winless Atlanta Falcons. "We didn't do very many...

    Oct 19, 2020

    It had been a long ride back from Sturgis, S.D., so when he first felt an ache at the back of his throat, Kenny Cervantes figured he was just tired. He'd traveled the 400-some miles on his Harley, rumbling through wide-open farm and prairie land on his way home to Riverdale, Neb., where his girlfriend was waiting. A lifelong motorcycle enthusiast, the 50-year-old construction worker and father of five had been determined to go to the Sturgis Motorcycle Rally, a holy grail for bikers. Even when...

  • Administrative law judge upholds Minnesota PCA decisions on Enbridge pipeline

    Oct 19, 2020

    An administrative law judge has found that Minnesota pollution regulators properly considered the construction impacts of Enbridge's controversial new pipeline, a blow to the oil pipeline's opponents. The ruling by Judge James LaFave stems from a challenge to the draft water permits for the pipeline's construction, which were approved by the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency (MPCA) in February. Three environmental groups and two Ojibwe bands asked for a "contested case" hearing over the draft...

  • Judge: Groups didn't prove Line 3 construction could damage wetlands, streams

    Oct 19, 2020

    An administrative law judge said opponents of Enbridge's proposed Line 3 oil pipeline did not prove construction of the project would harm wetlands and streams. In a non-binding recommendation issued Friday, Judge James LaFave said the coalition of environmental and tribal groups failed to meet the burden of proof in a contested-case hearing on the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency's water permits over the summer and urged the MPCA commissioner to make the same finding when considering the 340-...
