A federal judge in Florida declined for now to postpone former President Donald Trump’s classified documents trial but did push back several pre-trial deadlines in the case.

The ruling from U.S. District Judge Aileen Cannon is at least a modest victory for special counsel Jack Smith’s team, which had vigorously rejected efforts to push off the trial beyond its scheduled start date of May 20, 2024.

A suburban Minnesota city became what is believed to be the first in the U.S. to elect a Somali American mayor when 27-year-old Nadia Mohamed was chosen to lead St. Louis Park.

Mohamed won with 58% of the vote, defeating retired banker Dale A. Anderson, who got 41% of the vote. She had served on the City Council since she was elected at age 23 in 2019.

A car crash that occurred around 12:15 p.m. disrupted traffic for an hour after a stolen car collided with a gray Honda at the intersection between Cretin and Marshall Avenues yesterday.

The driver of the gray Honda was evaluated for arm injuries that did not require hospitalization, according to Sgt. Mike Ernster of the St. Paul Police Department. Ernster said the man driving the stolen car fled the scene.
