  • Mueller recommends no prison for Flynn, citing cooperation

    Dec 5, 2018

  • University of Minnesota regents are put on the spot over filling top job

    Dec 5, 2018

    At least two of the three semifinalists for the University of Minnesota president job have told the U’s governing board they are willing to be named finalists — and go public with their identities — only if they are the sole front-runner for the position. That places university regents in a delicate position going into a Wednesday meeting to make decisions on finalists: They will be forced to rally around a single finalist to interview publicly — or scrap what board members generally agree are strong contenders recommended by the U’s 23-member...

    Dec 5, 2018

    MADISON, Wis. — Demonstrators booed outgoing Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker on Tuesday during a Christmas tree-lighting ceremony, a sign of tumult as Republicans in the Legislature met to push through measures to gut the powers of his Democratic successor. The Legislature met deep into the night Tuesday to pass a series of bills, first unveiled Friday, that would weaken the governor's office and transfer power away from the Democratic-elect attorney general and give it to the Legislature. The Legislature wasn't expected to complete its work u...

  • Bill Belichick's dust-up with Adam Thielen was entertaining but not his most noteworthy

    Dec 5, 2018

    Mild-mannered Adam Thielen can be quite the ornery cuss between the white lines of an NFL field. But, sorry Adam, if sideline tiffs with Bill Belichick were an Olympic sport, you’d have to settle for bronze. And that’s just among three notable Belichickian Battles witnessed by this observer going back to Week 1 of the 1992 season. http://www.startribune.com/bill-belichick-s-dust-up-with-adam-thielen-was-entertaining-but-not-his-most-noteworthy/501940821/...

  • Crowds honor Bush for long service, from war to White House

    Dec 5, 2018

    WASHINGTON — Soldiers, citizens in wheelchairs and long lines of others on foot wound through the hushed Capitol Rotunda on Tuesday to view George H.W. Bush's casket and remember a president whose legacy included World War military service and a landmark law affirming the rights of the disabled. Bob Dole, a compatriot in war, peace and political struggle, steadied himself out of his wheelchair and saluted his old friend and one-time rival. As at notable moments in his life, Bush brought together Republicans and Democrats in his death, and n...

  • Sterilized Without Consent: Indigenous Women in Canada File Class Action Lawsuit

    Dec 5, 2018

    In 2001, a 29-year-old Cree woman, nicknamed S.A.T. in legal documents, went to the Royal University Hospital in Saskatchewan, Canada, to give birth to her sixth child. After she gave birth, she says, she was wheeled into an operating room to be sterilized. She says she desperately protested, but no one listened. To this day, she remembers “the smell of burning flesh” as her fallopian tubes were cauterized against her will in an irreversible birth control procedure.
