WASHINGTON (AP) — Days after tensions over two-police related deaths and last week's killing of five officers in Dallas, President Barack Obama has held a private meeting with police and protest leaders. The guest list included Gov. John Bel Edwards of Louisiana and Mayor Chris Coleman of St. Paul, Minnesota, the two locations where police shootings sparked protests around the country. The meeting follows the president's appearance yesterday at a memorial for the five officers. Funerals for three of the officers were held today.

MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — A rush hour protest that blocked traffic on an interstate in downtown Minneapolis has landed dozens of people in jail. Police say 41 people were arrested and four vehicles used to tie up southbound traffic on Interstate 35W were impounded. The protests come after Philando Castile was fatally shot by a St. Anthony officer during a traffic stop in the Twin Cities suburb of Falcon Heights last week.

SAN DIEGO (AP) — A federal judge who has been a target of criticism from Donald Trump is taking time to decide whether to release videos of the Republican presidential candidate testifying in a civil lawsuit. The case involves the now-defunct Trump University. Trump's attorneys worry the images will be used to tarnish his campaign. Trump has questioned whether Judge Gonzalo Curiel can be impartial because he is Mexican-American.

WASHINGTON (AP) — According to a congressional report, the Chinese government is believed to have hacked into computers at the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. in 2010, 2011 and 2013, including the workstation of then-FDIC Chair Sheila Bair. The report was issued today by GOP staffers and cites a May 2013 memo from the FDIC inspector general that cites an "advanced persistent threat."

NEW YORK (AP) — A year after scrambling by his lawyers, it appears New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady will be dropped for a legal loss. A federal appeals court has flatly rejected Brady's effort to avoid serving a four-game suspension to start the new season for his role in the so-called "Deflategate" scandal. Brady insists he was unaware balls used in a championship game were underinflated.
