The Department of Justice is cracking down on nationwide protests erupting over President Trump's border policies. Backed by a new $70-billion Homeland Security bill funding ICE and Border Patrol, federal prosecutors have charged 15 individuals in Minnesota with violently resisting federal officers. FOX News' Bill Melugin speaks with former Acting ICE Director Jonathan Fahey to break down the DOJ's new legal strategy, and the intense political battle across the country that's shaping the future of America's immigration enforcement. Average grade point averages in American high schools and colleges have mysteriously skyrocketed over recent decades, leaving many to wonder if a 4.0 still means what it used to as an A becomes the nation's most common grade. Neetu Arnold of the Manhattan Institute joins to discuss how grade inflation and a decline in school accountability have compromised academic readiness, the consequences for students entering higher education and the workforce, and why elite universities are reversing pandemic-era policies to bring back standardized testing metrics.

On May 14, 2008, 19-year-old Brandon Swanson disappeared near Porter, Minnesota, after calling his parents for help in the middle of the night. What should have been a simple drive home after celebrating the end of the college semester became one of the most haunting missing persons cases in Minnesota history. Brandon was on the phone with his father when something happened. Then the call went silent. Nearly two decades later, his family is still waiting for answers.

Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument has been the target of U.S. Sen. Mike Lee (R-UT). He has been looking to undo a Biden-era resource management plan, meant to focus on conservation and consultation with tribes. That effort has failed for now. KJZZ's Gabriel Pietrorazio has more. Using the Congressional Review Act, lawmakers on Capitol Hill could've killed the plan with a simple majority vote from the Senate floor, but that 60-day window has closed. Erik Stanfield is senior anthropologist with the Navajo Nation Heritage and Historic Preservation Department. “Some people think it's a win – and I suppose in some sense it is, but I don't feel excited about it, because I do think there’s more coming. We've just thrown away something that could be another weapon.” He helped shape this years-long process. An executive order could still downsize the national monument – significant to Navajos, Hopis, Zunis, Utes, and Paiutes. Together, they formed an inter-tribal coalition. “Having to respond to this really strengthened the coalition. It bonded the group a little bit better, we organized and that's going to persist.” FBI agent Christopher Dotson explains Operation Ballistic Backlog. (Photo: C.J. Keene / SDPB) Authorities are looking for methods to close gaps preventing justice from being served when violent crimes happen on reservation settings. Now, the FBI, ATF, and tribal law enforcement are doubling down on these efforts. South Dakota Public Broadcasting's C.J. Keene reports. They are calling it Operation Ballistic Backlog – and it falls under the ongoing effort Operation Steadfast Promise which is aiming to solve cases that have troubled reservations and Native communities for decades. To put it simply, firearms leave something of a ballistic fingerprint which can be traced if and only if prior uses of that firearm are documented into an ATF database. At the Rapid City FBI branch office, agent Christopher Dotson goes into detail. “In South Dakota, Operation Ballistic Backlog is an initiative that is unique to the Pine Ridge Reservation. This initiative came about when we recognized an opportunity to work with our partners with the Oglala Sioux Tribe Department of Public Safety who had hundreds of firearms in their custody that we could help test against evidence found at various crime scenes. This cache of weapons could be tested and entered into the ATF's national integrated ballistic network – known as NIBIN. Dotson is the special agent in charge of the Minneapolis Field Office, which covers Minnesota and the Dakotas. “What makes this initiative exciting is the potential to connect these guns to unresolved crimes on the Pine Ridge Reservation and elsewhere.” This comes as the FBI announced a new reward for information in the search for a suspect in the death of six-year-old Logan Warrior Goings, who was murdered in his Oglala family home. “Weeks later, a gun firing the same kind of ammunition used in Logan's murder was located well away from the crime scene. Ballistic testing connected that gun to the murder of little Logan – and that is a key piece of evidence. Last week, the FBI offered a $50,000 reward for information leading to the arrest and conviction of the person or persons responsible for Logan's senseless murder. Somebody out there knows something.” In total, over 500 firearms are now slated to be tested for potential links to cases across the nation. Get National Native News delivered to your inbox daily.

Each minute after someone's heart stops is a countdown towards death — nine in 10 people die if they experience a cardiac arrest outside a hospital. Dave Ogle beat the odds. The Woodbury man's heart stopped seven years ago while he was at home watching TV. His wife Kris Patrow was able to perform CPR until paramedics arrived. And then he was rushed to one of the few hospitals in the world that was pioneering new techniques that could restore blood flow to his lifeless body. MPR News host Angela Davis talks with Ogle and Patrow about his recovery, and with a cardiologist about the importance of CPR and why Minnesota has some of the best cardiac arrest survival rates in the country.
Americans will soon have a new option for sun protection. The FDA gave the green light to bemotrizinol, the first new ingredient approved for sunscreen in the U.S. in over 20 years. Minnesota has the nation's second-highest rate of skin cancer. University of Minnesota dermatologist Dr. Ingrid Polcari considers this development to be a win for local public health. She talked to MPR News host Nina Moini about it.
The U.S. Supreme Court is nearing the end of its current term. By late June or early July, the justices will announce decisions in a handful of high-profile cases. One of those has to do with how law enforcement uses location data collected by tech companies. Minnesota's Supreme Court decided a similar case back in April.Investigators have used a tool called geofencing to draw a virtual boundary around an area where a crime was committed and find out from tech companies which phones were nearby. Law enforcement needs a warrant to access this data, but critics say the tactic violates privacy rights. University of St. Thomas law professor Julie Jonas joined MPR News host Nina Moini to explain the main questions before the Supreme Court, and what its decision could mean for Minnesotans.
Fifteen people have been charged by the federal government for anti-ICE actions this winter. Prosecutors allege they are part of antifa, a left-wing political movement.

We talked to a legal expert.Plus, for the first time in 20 years a new ingredient can go into sunscreen. Doctors say it's better than current options.There wasn't much sunshine Wednesday.

With Russell Wilson's recent retirement announced, we want to celebrate his Seattle Seahawks legacy, from the "F" draft grade of his 2012 draft class to the defining moments that made Seattle a Super Bowl champion for the first time. We highlight seven iconic plays: rookie-year scrambles vs. the 49ers and Patriots, the 2017 double-pirouette strike to Doug Baldwin, pinpoint touchdowns to Tyler Lockett, the frigid 2015 playoff vs. Minnesota, and the overtime dagger to Jermaine Kearse in the 2014 NFC Championship. The Hall of Fame argument focuses on how he stacks up against other dual threat inductees: John Elway, Fran Tarkenton and Steve Young. Wilson's elite efficiency, comeback resume and status as the only NFL quarterback to achieve a 40,000/5,000 passing-rushing milestone put him in elite company amony other HOF quarterbacks. In the second half of the show we get into the off-field lore that also defined his career. We also take a look at how Wilson's success changed the opportunities for shorter quarterbacks in the NFL.

A tribal nation is one step closer to switching on a large solar project in southwestern Minnesota. The Upper Sioux Community installed rows of solar panels to power its casino in 2024. The project means the tribe plans to buy less electricity from its local utility, the Minnesota Valley Cooperative Light and Power Association. The cooperative then threatened to cut off power to the casino. A judge ruled in favor of the tribe in early June. Now, the dispute is up to state regulators to decide. A spokesperson with the Public Utilities Commission said a public comment period is open through July 22 and the commission is likely to take up the issue this fall.Gabriel Chan is a University of Minnesota professor focused on energy policy. He joined MPR News host Nina Moini to talk about how the case fits into the landscape of efforts to transition to renewable electricity across the state.

CannCon and Ghost open Tuesday with somber news first: a B-52 crash at Edwards Air Force Base claims all eight servicemen aboard, the latest in a string of unexplained military aircraft losses. From there the show pivots into a packed lineup. Trump's latest Save America Act post adds two new conditions, and CannCon and Ghost debate whether the bill's failure to pass is actually a deliberate gatekeeping move to avoid a "fortified elections, case closed" narrative that would leave the black box voting machines untouched. ICE quietly starts pulling local voter files in Texas, the FBI raids Ohio's leading voter registration nonprofit with 125 agents, and Trump appoints James McDonald, one of the two attorneys who investigated FTX's collapse, as the new US Attorney for the Southern District of New York, days after Sam Bankman-Fried's pardon request and appeal loss. Norm Eisen's States United nonprofit comes under House Oversight scrutiny for deputizing private lawyers to prosecute Trump-aligned alternate electors in Arizona and Minnesota. Gavin Newsom announces he is under DOJ investigation and casts himself as Trump's next political target, while CannCon breaks down how his wife's nonprofit funnels donor and state money into her own for-profit film company through a school licensing scheme.
0:00 - After ALL THAT, Brendan Sorsby won't play football for Texas Tech. He's entering the NFL supplemental draft. Sheesh. What a mess. Essentially, the entire college football world bullied Brendan Sorsby into stepping away from Texas Tech. Good.After that, Marvin Mims has a new agent. The Broncos signed Jaylen Waddle back in March. Yesterday, the signed a speedster WR out of the UFL. What do we make of all this?15:40 - Death, taxes, and the Rockies bullpen blowing it. Yesterday, they walked in the winning run. The more things change, the more they stay the same. Brett's pissed about it. He's super fired up this morning. So Vic asked: why do you waste any time getting emotionally invested in the Rockies? They're not going to sniff the playoffs. Why expend any brain power worrying about them?32:05 - Minnesota sports teams are cursed. It's probably the most cursed sports in the country. There's a pattern of guys being traded away from Minnesota teams then winning a title elsewhere within 2 years. Yikes.
This is a Grave Talks CLASSIC EPISODE!Along the banks of the Mississippi River in Wabasha, Minnesota, stands the Anderson House Hotel—a place where the past never seems to rest. Opened in 1856, it is Minnesota's oldest hotel, and for almost 170 years, guests have walked its halls, often leaving with stories they cannot explain.One of the most enduring mysteries is the spirit known only as Sarah. Her story is unclear, her history uncertain—but her presence is undeniable. Guests and staff alike have reported the sensation of being watched, the sound of footsteps when no one is there, and the fleeting glimpse of a woman who vanishes before she can be approached.And she may not be the only one who lingers. For years, the Anderson House was famous for its cats, beloved companions that once padded through its guest rooms. Though the living cats are long gone, many visitors still claim to hear phantom purrs in the dark, feel the weight of something curling at the foot of the bed, or see shadows shaped like cats darting through the halls.Tonight, we step inside the Anderson House Hotel with partner Becky Shaw to uncover its history, its hauntings, and the mysteries that still prowl its corridors.For more information, visit their website at theandersonhousehotel.com.#HauntedHotel #AndersonHouse #RealGhostStories #HauntedMinnesota #TrueHaunting #GhostCats #HauntedHistory #ParanormalStories #GhostEncounters #TheGraveTalksLove real ghost stories?

Opened in 1856, it is Minnesota's oldest hotel, and for almost 170 years, guests have walked its halls, often leaving with stories they cannot explain.One of the most enduring mysteries is the spirit known only as Sarah. Her story is unclear, her history uncertain—but her presence is undeniable. Guests and staff alike have reported the sensation of being watched, the sound of footsteps when no one is there, and the fleeting glimpse of a woman who vanishes before she can be approached.And she may not be the only one who lingers. For years, the Anderson House was famous for its cats, beloved companions that once padded through its guest rooms. Though the living cats are long gone, many visitors still claim to hear phantom purrs in the dark, feel the weight of something curling at the foot of the bed, or see shadows shaped like cats darting through the halls.Tonight, we step inside the Anderson House Hotel with partner Becky Shaw to uncover its history, its hauntings, and the mysteries that still prowl its corridors.For more information, visit their website at theandersonhousehotel.com.#HauntedHotel #AndersonHouse #RealGhostStories #HauntedMinnesota #TrueHaunting #GhostCats #HauntedHistory #ParanormalStories #GhostEncounters #TheGraveTalksLove real ghost stories?
