St. Paul mayor's race begins in earnest, Kaohly Her launches campaign
With five candidates officially running and a little more than two months until Election Day, the race for St. Paul mayor is beginning in earnest. Around a hundred supporters of Rep. Kaohly Her gathered at Lake Monster Brewing Company in St. Paul for a formal launch event for the state lawmaker's mayoral campaign Monday night, including her current and former Democratic Farmer-Labor-House colleagues. State Sen. John Hoffman, DFL-Champlin, and his wife, Yvette, who survived an attempted assassination at their home in June, have also endorsed Her. They didn't attend the Monday launch but appeared in a video played at the event. Many in attendance said they had voted for Mayor Melvin Carter in 2017 and again in 2021, but said a change of leadership is needed in City Hall. They pointed to public safety concerns, particularly along the Green Line light rail corridor on University Avenue, and development troubles in downtown St. Paul. 'I appreciate everything that Melvin has done, but after eight years, I think we need someone else with newer ideas, more energy,' said Peter Scott, of the Cathedral Hill neighborhood in St. Paul. 'Having Kaohly come in after having worked in state government with that larger perspective — I think it would be very, very helpful for St Paul.' Carter, who is seeking a third term in office, has pointed to dropping homicide and carjacking rates after the pandemic as a sign of improving conditions in the city, but many point to ongoing issues with addiction and homelessness along the Green Line as a sign of worsening conditions overall. Scott and others said they hope fresh leadership might help address those problems, as well as rising property taxes, job growth and development challenges in districts like downtown. Scott pointed to the closure of downtown's only grocery store earlier this year and the closure of the Midway Cub Foods as signs of the city's struggles. Speaking with reporters after filing for his third term earlier this month, Carter said he's been working with lawmakers and other local leaders about issues like road reconstruction, addressing a surge in copper wire theft from street lights and redeveloping the city's struggling downtown. 'Obviously, there's been a lot of global forces that we haven't been able to hold off of St. Paul, whether that's the challenges hitting every downtown (or) some of the results that still are lingering from the pandemic,' he said at the time, adding that he thinks the city is gaining 'momentum' on issues like housing. During his tenure, Cater has pursued a progressive agenda that has included medical debt forgiveness, college savings accounts for newborns, and a new sales tax to fund roads and parks. Her has said that while she supports those policies, the city of St. Paul should focus on essential services. 'I don't have a shiny new project that I want to put out there and tell you all look what I'm going to be doing, so that the national stage can look at us,' Her said in a speech at the event. 'But what I do have is the grit, the determination, the skill and the ability to dig into doing city correctly.' Besides friends, community members and former city leaders, former state Rep. Ryan Winkler, a Golden Valley DFLer now running for Hennepin County Attorney was present, as was Her's current House colleague, Rep. Brad Tabke, DFL-Shakopee. The three other candidates in the race besides Carter and Her include an engineer, a scientist and a local business owner. Yan Chen is a biophysicist at the University of Minnesota who ran for St. Paul City Council Ward 1 in 2023. North End resident and mechanical engineer Adam Dullinger is the most recent candidate to enter the race. He's a political newcomer Mike Hilborn runs a power washing, snowplowing and Christmas tree lighting business and ran as a Republican for downtown St. Paul's state House district in 2024. In a biography on his campaign website, he describes himself as 'a father, an entrepreneur, a second-chance employer.' Mayoral elections are nonpartisan, though they often draw strong party interest. This year will be a little different, however: the St. Paul Democratic-Farmer-Labor Party is not making any endorsements in the race as it works to rebuild itself. This will be the last year a mayoral election happens in an odd-numbered year in St. Paul. In 2024, voters approved a measure to shift the election to even-numbered years when other major contests are on the ballot. The mayor is typically elected to a four-year term. But because of the change, the next election will be in 2028. The winner of this year's election will only serve a three-year term. Under St. Paul's ranked-choice voting system, voters can rank candidates in order of preference.

Southern border wall will be painted black to make it ‘even harder for people to climb,' DHS Secretary Kristi Noem says
If you see black, head back. Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem announced Tuesday that the entire southern border wall will be painted black, in an effort to make the structure too hot to scale when the sun is beating down on it. The new paint job for the roughly 700 miles of border wall along the US-Mexico boundary, which the administration aims to dramatically expand, was ordered by President Trump himself to further deter illegal crossings, Noem revealed during a press conference in front of a section of the barrier in Santa Teresa, New Mexico. Advertisement 3 The idea is that black paint will absorb more heat, making it too hot for would-be illegal border-crossers to scale. Bloomberg via Getty Images 'It's tall, which makes it very, very difficult to climb, almost impossible. It also goes deep into the ground, which would make it very difficult, if not impossible, to dig under. And today we are also going to be painting it black,' the DHS secretary said of the steel structure behind her. 'That is specifically at the request of the president, who understands that in the hot temperatures down here, when something is painted black, it gets even warmer, and it will make it even harder for people to climb,' Noem continued. Advertisement 'So we are going to be painting the entire southern border wall black to make sure that we encourage individuals to not come into our country illegally,' she added. The coat of black paint will also help prevent the steel structure from rusting, Noem said. Additional technology, including cameras and sensors, will also be deployed to further thwart illegal border crossings, which have plunged to the lowest levels on record under Trump. It's unclear what the full cost of the paint job will be. Advertisement 3 Noem said the black paint would also help keep the steel wall from rusting. ABC News 3 The entire southern border wall will get the new paint coat, according to Noem. AFP via Getty Images A total of $46.5 billion was earmarked for border wall construction in the One Big Beautiful Bill Act, which the White House estimated would fund an additional 700 miles of wall along the 2,000-mile stretch of land and water that divides the US and Mexico. 'With the OBBB we will be able to finish the border wall system started under President Trump's first term. Due to an active procurement process to finish the wall it would be irresponsible to the American taxpayer to release the numbers as it may impact future bids,' a DHS spokesperson said when asked about the pricetag. Advertisement During his first term, Trump reportedly preferred border wall prototypes that had bollards painted 'flat black' to absorb heat and render them too hot to touch. The president, at the time, also reportedly told a group of officials and engineers that the border wall should have sharp spikes at the top to appear more intimidating.

Air support for Ukraine? Trump floats security guarantee
Trump has said the U.S. will help Europe craft security guarantees for Ukraine to backstop any peace deal reached with Russia, in lieu of Ukraine joining NATO, a red line for Russia. 'When it comes to security, they are willing to put people on the ground,' Trump said in an interview on 'Fox & Friends' Tuesday morning, referring to Europe. 'We're willing to help them with things, especially, probably, if you talk about by air because nobody has stuff we have.' White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt said Tuesday that Trump has tasked his national security team to ' come up with a framework for these security guarantees that can be acceptable to help ensure a lasting peace and end this war.' ' I won't, certainly, rule out anything as far as military options that the president has at his disposal, I'll let him do that,' she said, adding the president has 'definitively' ruled out boots on the ground. NATO Secretary-General Mark Rutte on Monday said Trump's willingness to involve the U.S. in security guarantees for Ukraine was a 'breakthrough' in the peace process, though details on America's potential role remain scarce. Trump's floating the possibility of air support could mean American pilots engaged in defensive operations, guarding against Russian missiles, or simply providing support for other aircraft — such as air-to-air refueling or for transportation of military equipment. Defensive operations could risk a confrontation between the U.S. and Russia, a scenario that both Trump and former President Biden before him have been anxious to avoid.
