In the other direction, there's a new neighbor in town. This spring, a cannabis farmer started building hoop houses on the 100-acre parcel. So far, a quarter of the land is growing pot. Joseph has seen plenty of vegetable farms there before.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We've lived together with other vegetables, lettuces and cauliflower, and broccoli and snap peas, and walnuts very happily,\" she says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But this new crop is different. In June, Joseph learned that the fungicide she has been spraying on her grapes for decades could be drifting onto the cannabis. Unlike food crops, cannabis can't be sold if there's any trace of fungicide or pesticide in it,\u003ca href=\"https://bcc.ca.gov/about_us/documents/17-261_required_testing_chart.pdf\"> according to state law\u003c/a>.

"content": "\u003cp>When Facebook announced plans in June to launch a new digital currency called Libra, the news sent monetary officials scrambling in China.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That’s because since 2014, the People’s Bank of China has been looking into building its own, centrally controlled cryptocurrency.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[pullquote size='medium' align='right' citation='Martin Chorzempa, a research fellow at the Peterson Institute of International Economics']‘If Facebook is able to attract and turn a good number of its current users of Facebook and WhatsApp into Libra coin holders and users, it could immediately leapfrog all of what China has done in terms of building up users.’[/pullquote]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We will keep a close eye on the new global digital currency,” Wang Xin, research director at China’s central bank, said of Libra at a conference in early July in Beijing. “We had an early start … but lots of work is needed to consolidate our lead.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A digital currency would allow China’s central bank to record every single transaction with high precision in real time. China’s mobile payments already capture vast troves of data; estimates of nearly 2 billion accounts are registered between the two major platforms, Alibaba’s Alipay and Tencent’s WeChat Pay\u003cem>. \u003c/em>A centralized digital currency would further cement China’s dominance in financial technology.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“China relies on the mobile payments sector immensely. We have had a long lead time [over Libra] with the success of WeChat and Alipay, but Libra represents a huge threat on mobile payments,” says Chuanwei Zou, chief economist at Bitmain, a large Chinese company that sells equipment used to create or “mine” cryptocurrencies.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Facebook hopes to \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2019/06/18/733809352/facebook-announces-plans-for-libra-its-own-cryptocurrency\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">roll out Libra\u003c/a> in the first half of 2020, presenting the most significant competition to China’s cryptocurrency ambitions. The U.S. social media company has 2.5 billion users, more than twice the amount commanded by WeChat. That gives Facebook an immediate leg up in the race for a global cryptocurrency.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“If Facebook is able to attract and turn a good number of its current users of Facebook and WhatsApp into Libra coin holders and users, it could immediately leapfrog all of what China has done in terms of building up users,” says Martin Chorzempa, a \u003ca href=\"https://www.piie.com/experts/senior-research-staff/martin-chorzempa\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">research fellow at\u003c/a> the Peterson Institute of International Economics.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Facebook is building a global coalition of partners, each with a stake in the Libra Association, a nonprofit organization registered in Switzerland that will manage the cryptocurrency day to day. Facebook says it has already signed on 27 partners, including Visa, PayPal and Lyft.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[pullquote size='medium' align='right' citation='Chuanwei Zou, chief economist at Bitmain']‘Having a global currency is a demonstration of a country’s influence. It reflects the competitiveness of your country’s economy.’[/pullquote]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At stake in the cryptocurrency competition is control over financial data collection and the ability to conduct trade worldwide. The United States currently has an effective veto power over the global financial transactions system because so much of the world’s commerce is done in U.S. dollars, allowing it to sanction its enemies and let its companies operate globally with little to no transaction costs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>China has long sought to unseat the dollar as the world’s top currency with the yuan, also known as the renminbi.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Having a global currency is a demonstration of a country’s influence. It reflects the competitiveness of your country’s economy,” says Bitmain’s Zou. “The fear is that Libra might replace renminbi’s position in the world.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Libra will draw its value from a combination of major currencies, such as the dollar and the euro. Facebook has not said whether the yuan will be included. Depending on the final ratio, the new money could rely heavily on the dollar for stability.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>China was once the biggest miner of Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies, thanks to the country’s cheap and plentiful hydropower used to fuel the processing power needed to create new digital coins.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But in 2017, Chinese regulators began a crackdown on Bitcoin and other digital currencies that persists to this day. The authorities wiped out private exchanges and banned the creation of new cryptocurrencies, over concerns that they would enable an exodus of money and destabilize the economy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside postID='news_11756199,news_11755366,forum_2010101866365' label='KQED coverage of cryptocurrency']\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Should Libra take off, China might be convinced to loosen up its restrictive cryptocurrency regulations to allow big Chinese technology companies such as Alibaba and Tencent to issue competing digital currencies. Zhou Xiaochuan, the former director of the People’s Bank of China, floated the idea of allowing “commercial entities” to issue tokens in a speech this month, according to a transcript.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Of course, China could also ban Libra from its cyberspace, just as it has already barred access to Facebook and its suite of products, Instagram and WhatsApp. But such a gamble might only work if Libra is not widely adopted.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The problem for China is if Libra is really successful around the world and it’s banned in China then China is in a losing position and its companies might be in a disadvantage in the digital economy versus companies that are able to accept Libra,” says the Peterson Institute’s Chorzempa. “That’s quite a scary prospect.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Facebook executives are framing Libra as a necessary move to challenge China’s advances in cryptocurrencies and the new money’s record-keeping technology known as blockchain. “I believe that if America does not lead innovation in the digital currency and payments area, others will,” David Marcus, the man in charge of making Libra happen, told members of the House Financial Services Committee in \u003ca href=\"https://financialservices.house.gov/uploadedfiles/hhrg-116-ba00-wstate-marcusd-20190717.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">prepared testimony\u003c/a> on July 17.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>However, bipartisan \u003ca href=\"https://www.cnbc.com/2019/07/15/treasury-secretary-mnuchin-will-hold-a-news-conference-on-cryptocurrencies-at-2-pm-et.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">concerns over the potential\u003c/a> use of the Libra in illicit activities could delay its launch.\u003c/p>\n\u003cdiv class=\"fullattribution\">\u003cem>Copyright 2019 NPR.

Ken Buck, R-Colo., asked Mueller whether he believed there was sufficient evidence for a charge when Trump no longer enjoys the protection of the Justice Department policy that forbids indicting a president.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Yes, Mueller said. But for the Office of Legal Counsel's opinion that bars charging a president, the former special counsel said to Rep. Ted Lieu, D-Calif., that he and his office might have decided whether to try to bring an indictment against Trump.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K459NBUK_GU\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Some Democratic presidential candidates \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2019/06/08/730941386/harris-justice-dept-would-have-no-choice-but-to-prosecute-trump-after-presidency\">have endorsed doing so\u003c/a> if they're elected next year, but no president has ever been prosecuted after the fact for actions in office — another political minefield for the party to navigate.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Other Democrats on Wednesday emphasized what they called key findings from the special counsel's investigation, including the details about Trump's then-campaign chairman, \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2019/03/13/702743703/paul-manafort-to-serve-total-of-more-than-7-years-following-d-c-guilty-plea\">Paul Manafort\u003c/a>, meeting with a Russian contact who has been linked with Russia's intelligence agencies — and giving him polling and other material from the Trump campaign.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Mueller also stressed that he would not go beyond what he has already said or written or violate the guidelines the Justice Department has imposed on what he can reveal on Wednesday. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Time and time again, he declined to associate himself with whatever characterization was being drawn by a lawmaker questioning him and on a few occasions he responded curtly: \"I take your question.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Collins and Co. for the Minority\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Republicans used their time with Mueller to emphasize that the special counsel established no conspiracy between the Trump campaign and the Russian attack on the election.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>House Judiciary Committee Ranking Member Doug Collins, R-Ga., sought to underscore the thoroughness of Mueller's report — and the conclusion, supported by that thoroughness, that there had been no conspiracy between Trump's campaign in 2016 and the Russians who interfered in the election.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Other members attacked the former special counsel for what they called malpractice and bias. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Rep. John Ratcliffe, R-Texas, told Mueller that he had failed to fulfill his responsibilities as a prosecutor by writing that he could neither charge Trump nor \"exonerate him\" — because exoneration is not a prosecutor's job, Ratcliffe said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>His job is to determine whether sufficient evidence exists to bring a charge and, if he can't, not only mustn't he bring the charge, he also must not reveal what he uncovered because there won't be an indictment, Ratcliffe said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"You managed to violate every principle and most sacred tradition for prosecutors,\" the Texas congressman said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rLmpAbr6h5c\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ratcliffe asked Mueller whether he could cite a written Justice Department policy that permitted the specific actions he had taken with his investigation and his report.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I cannot,\" Mueller said, \"but this is a unique situation.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Rep. Steve Chabot, R-Ohio, sought to draw Mueller out about some of the more salacious aspects of the Russia imbroglio, including \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2018/04/25/586040491/what-you-need-to-know-about-the-russia-investigations-the-dossier\">the so-called Russia dossier\u003c/a> produced by former British intelligence officer Christopher Steele. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Mueller wouldn't go there. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He said that matter was being handled by others inside the Justice Department and, at one point, said he didn't know either the names Fusion GPS — the political intelligence firm that commissioned the Steele material — or Glenn Simpson, its founder.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Mueller deferred again in the session with the House intelligence committee to address alternative hypothesis propounded by Ranking Member Devin Nunes, R-Calif., and other members about the early phase of the Russia investigation. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That's also being \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2019/05/24/726593232/barr-is-investigating-the-investigators-will-he-find-wrongdoing-or-political-fue\">investigated by others in the Justice Department\u003c/a>, Mueller said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KNIipT35Eh4\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The former special counsel also tried to dispute accusations that members of his team were politically biased because of their work with Democrats or political contributions. Mueller said he picked the most effective people for the job. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Justice Department calls for officials not to consider employees' political views when hiring or making assignment. \u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Reluctant Witness\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>The white-haired former G-man didn't want to testify before Congress.

But the FTC says the $5 billion is for deterrence — to send a message to other tech companies. Kohm says Facebook fought against it, though the company didn't want to litigate.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The settlement comes as big tech companies such as Facebook, Google and Amazon face increased calls for regulation amid scrutiny over whether they're too big and powerful.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It follows by one day \u003ca href=\"https://www.justice.gov/opa/pr/justice-department-reviewing-practices-market-leading-online-platforms\">the Justice Department's announcement\u003c/a> that its antitrust division is reviewing \"whether and how market-leading online platforms have achieved market power and are engaging in practices that have reduced competition, stifled innovation, or otherwise harmed consumers.\" The department did not say which companies are under review.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The FTC's investigation of Facebook began more than a year ago in the wake of revelations that Cambridge Analytica, a firm that had worked with President Trump's 2016 campaign, had gathered \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-way/2018/05/02/607782799/cambridge-analytica-is-shutting-down-after-facebook-data-controversy\">personal data\u003c/a> from up to 87 million Facebook users.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Facebook had been in negotiations with the FTC following concerns that the social media giant violated the 2011 consent decree in which it promised to give consumers \"clear and prominent notice\" when sharing their data with others and to get \"express consent.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And on Wednesday, the company settled a case with securities regulators over the Cambridge Analytica matter. The SEC said Facebook \"discovered the misuse of its users' information in 2015, but did not correct its existing disclosure for more than two years.\" Instead, the agency said, \"Facebook continued to tell investors that \"our users' data may be improperly accessed, used or disclosed.' \"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Facebook presented the risk of misuse of user data as hypothetical when they knew user data had in fact been misused,\" Stephanie Avakian, co-director of the SEC's Enforcement Division, said in a statement. \"Public companies must have procedures in place to make accurate disclosures about material business risks.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Facebook told investors in April that it \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2019/04/24/716886822/facebook-could-face-up-to-5-billion-fine-for-privacy-violations\">expected to pay\u003c/a> a fine of up to $5 billion in a settlement with the FTC.

It was my mistake, and I'm sorry,\" he told lawmakers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Days earlier, Facebook Chief Operating Officer Sheryl Sandberg\u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-way/2018/04/05/599770568/facebooks-sheryl-sandberg-on-data-privacy-fail-we-were-way-too-idealistic\"> told NPR\u003c/a> in an interview: \"We really believed in protecting privacy. But we were way too idealistic. We did not think enough about the abuse cases.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In March 2019, Zuckerberg promised to bring encryption and self-destruct features to Messenger and other Facebook apps, in a move meant to signal the company's \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2019/03/06/700896972/facebook-promises-more-private-and-self-destructing-messages\">commitment to privacy\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Facebook \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-way/2018/06/04/616792341/facebook-defends-giving-device-makers-access-to-users-data-for-years\">denied reports\u003c/a> in June 2018 that the company exposed its users' private information to other big tech companies as part of a plan to become ubiquitous on mobile devices.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Earlier this year, several groups that advocate for children's rights and privacy rights asked the FTC to investigate whether Facebook illegally \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2019/02/21/696430478/advocates-ask-ftc-to-investigate-facebook-deception-over-kids-in-game-purchases\">enticed children to spend money\u003c/a> on in-game purchases without their parents' consent.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And Facebook's plan to launch a digital currency has \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2019/07/16/742168185/tech-firms-to-face-lawmakers-over-antitrust-digital-currency\">drawn skepticism from lawmakers\u003c/a>, who cited the company's repeated missteps over privacy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Copyright 2019 NPR.

Kohm says Facebook fought against it, though the company didn't want to litigate.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The settlement comes as big tech companies such as Facebook, Google and Amazon face increased calls for regulation amid scrutiny over whether they're too big and powerful.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It follows by one day \u003ca href=\"https://www.justice.gov/opa/pr/justice-department-reviewing-practices-market-leading-online-platforms\">the Justice Department's announcement\u003c/a> that its antitrust division is reviewing \"whether and how market-leading online platforms have achieved market power and are engaging in practices that have reduced competition, stifled innovation, or otherwise harmed consumers.\" The department did not say which companies are under review.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The FTC's investigation of Facebook began more than a year ago in the wake of revelations that Cambridge Analytica, a firm that had worked with President Trump's 2016 campaign, had gathered \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-way/2018/05/02/607782799/cambridge-analytica-is-shutting-down-after-facebook-data-controversy\">personal data\u003c/a> from up to 87 million Facebook users.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Facebook had been in negotiations with the FTC following concerns that the social media giant violated the 2011 consent decree in which it promised to give consumers \"clear and prominent notice\" when sharing their data with others and to get \"express consent.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And on Wednesday, the company settled a case with securities regulators over the Cambridge Analytica matter. The SEC said Facebook \"discovered the misuse of its users' information in 2015, but did not correct its existing disclosure for more than two years.\" Instead, the agency said, \"Facebook continued to tell investors that \"our users' data may be improperly accessed, used or disclosed.' \"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Facebook presented the risk of misuse of user data as hypothetical when they knew user data had in fact been misused,\" Stephanie Avakian, co-director of the SEC's Enforcement Division, said in a statement. \"Public companies must have procedures in place to make accurate disclosures about material business risks.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Facebook told investors in April that it \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2019/04/24/716886822/facebook-could-face-up-to-5-billion-fine-for-privacy-violations\">expected to pay\u003c/a> a fine of up to $5 billion in a settlement with the FTC. By comparison, the company reported $55.8 billion in revenues and a profit of $22.1 billion last year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Facebook is one of NPR's financial sponsors.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Zuckerberg faced \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-way/2018/04/10/599808766/i-m-responsible-for-what-happens-at-facebook-mark-zuckerberg-will-tell-senate\">hours of questioning\u003c/a> in congressional hearings in April 2018 over the Cambridge Analytica scandal and how Facebook handled user data. \"We didn't take a broad enough view of our responsibility, and that was a big mistake. It was my mistake, and I'm sorry,\" he told lawmakers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Days earlier, Facebook Chief Operating Officer Sheryl Sandberg\u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-way/2018/04/05/599770568/facebooks-sheryl-sandberg-on-data-privacy-fail-we-were-way-too-idealistic\"> told NPR\u003c/a> in an interview: \"We really believed in protecting privacy. But we were way too idealistic. We did not think enough about the abuse cases.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In March 2019, Zuckerberg promised to bring encryption and self-destruct features to Messenger and other Facebook apps, in a move meant to signal the company's \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2019/03/06/700896972/facebook-promises-more-private-and-self-destructing-messages\">commitment to privacy\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Facebook \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-way/2018/06/04/616792341/facebook-defends-giving-device-makers-access-to-users-data-for-years\">denied reports\u003c/a> in June 2018 that the company exposed its users' private information to other big tech companies as part of a plan to become ubiquitous on mobile devices.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Earlier this year, several groups that advocate for children's rights and privacy rights asked the FTC to investigate whether Facebook illegally \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2019/02/21/696430478/advocates-ask-ftc-to-investigate-facebook-deception-over-kids-in-game-purchases\">enticed children to spend money\u003c/a> on in-game purchases without their parents' consent.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And Facebook's plan to launch a digital currency has \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2019/07/16/742168185/tech-firms-to-face-lawmakers-over-antitrust-digital-currency\">drawn skepticism from lawmakers\u003c/a>, who cited the company's repeated missteps over privacy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Copyright 2019 NPR.

That’s in addition to the free annual credit reports that Equifax, and the two other nationwide credit reporting agencies — Experian and TransUnion — currently provide.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Under the settlement, affected consumers will be eligible for free credit monitoring.

The Department of Homeland Security's Office of the Inspector General has repeatedly criticized the company for cutting corners on its investigations, conducting improper interviews, and producing \u003ca href=\"https://www.oig.dhs.gov/sites/default/files/assets/2018-06/OIG-18-67-Jun18.pdf\">inaccurate reports\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In one instance, the government watchdog said \u003ca href=\"https://www.oig.dhs.gov/sites/default/files/assets/Mga/2018/oig-18-86-sep18.pdf\">ICE failed to take seriously the problem of braided bed sheets\u003c/a> hanging in detainee cells. It said similar braided sheets had been used as a noose in one suicide and in several other attempts.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For many critics, Nakamoto's failures cited in the government reports help explain why unsanitary, harsh conditions at the detention centers persist.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2019/07/02/738179391/dhs-inspector-general-finds-dangerous-overcrowding-in-border-patrol-facilities\">Public scrutiny of detention \u003c/a>facilities continues to increase. Meanwhile, the population of those detained at ICE's facilities last month reached an \u003ca href=\"https://www.ice.gov/detention-management\">all-time high of 54,000\u003c/a>. At the same time, there are persistent questions from the inspector general about whether ICE is properly overseeing the contractors that run a majority of the agency's facilities.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2019/06/30/736940431/under-siege-and-largely-secret-businesses-that-serve-immigration-detention\">ICE relies heavily on private industry\u003c/a> in nearly every aspect of its operation. Outside contractors GEO Group and CoreCivic operate most of ICE's adult detention centers. For the last eight years, Nakamoto has been charged with conducting annual inspections of ICE detention centers, including those run by GEO and CoreCivic.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"It's really not an exaggeration to say that there is basically no meaningful accountability or oversight for the companies who are involved,\" says Heidi Altman, director of policy at the National Immigrant Justice Center, an immigrant rights group. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The DHS inspector general not only \u003ca href=\"https://www.oig.dhs.gov/sites/default/files/assets/2018-06/OIG-18-67-Jun18.pdf\">criticized Nakamoto's work\u003c/a>, it also faulted ICE for not properly overseeing Nakamoto. \"ICE does not adequately hold detention facility contractors accountable for not meeting performance standards,\" the inspector general wrote in its \u003ca href=\"https://www.oig.dhs.gov/sites/default/files/assets/2019-02/OIG-19-18-Jan19.pdf\">latest report in January\u003c/a>. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The result, critics say, is that detainees are subject to everything from solitary confinement to negligent medical care.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Kidd, the 24-year-old former Adelanto detainee, says he filed grievances about his experiences. (Kidd married in December; prior to that his last name was Sorto.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Kidd's Honduran mother brought him to the U.S. when he was 9. He was supposed to be protected from deportation under DACA, or the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals, but ICE agents arrested him outside his apartment because of a DUI charge that was later expunged from his record.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Kidd says the treatment at Adelanto was inhumane. One day, during an evacuation, he says a guard screamed obscenities, calling him and his fellow detainees names.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I mean, that's when I kind of lost it,\" Kidd says. \"I just said, 'You cannot call me that, you cannot treat us like animals, because we're not.' \"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For this, Kidd says he was briefly taken to a solitary confinement room called \"Bravo.\" \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"In Bravo, there was nobody watching in there,\" Kidd says. \"You'd see people come out of there with bruises. I saw them come out of there with bruises.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Kidd filed grievances under ICE procedures with GEO Group, which ran the facility. He says GEO promised to interview his fellow detainees about the mistreatment, but never did. He says GEO dismissed his complaint. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside postID='news_11736531,news_11728992' label='Coverage of Immigration Detention From KQED']\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>ICE did not respond to requests seeking comment about Kidd's claims. GEO referred questions regarding the case to ICE.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Kidd's attorney, Sabrina Damast, says such treatment and conditions should have alarmed inspectors.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Nakamoto inspectors reported no problems at Adelanto in 2017 and \u003ca href=\"https://www.ice.gov/doclib/facilityInspections/adelantoEastCa_CL_10_11_2018.pdf\">2018\u003c/a>. For the last eight years, the company has held the contract to inspect conditions at more than 100 ICE facilities, including Adelanto. (Nakamoto inspections from previous years have not been made public.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The last time ICE's own Office of Detention Oversight reviewed Adelanto was \u003ca href=\"https://www.ice.gov/doclib/foia/odo-compliance-inspections/2014AdelantoJuly.pdf\">in 2014\u003c/a>. That year, ICE's internal review found the facility already fell short in six areas, including how it addressed sexual assault, its handling of detainee grievances and its food service. (Earlier this year, NPR sued the City of Adelanto seeking access to documents regarding conditions at that facility.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>ICE declined an interview. But its spokeswoman Danielle Bennett says the agency \u003cem>has \u003c/em>improved since the inspector general's reports. In an emailed statement, Bennett said senior ICE officials now accompany Nakamoto investigators during their reviews. ICE, she notes, has multiple layers of oversight, including local staff stationed in each facility. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside tag='immigration-detention' label='Related Coverage']\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Bennett says the agency is also holding contractors accountable. Between December 2018 and March 2019, she says, financial penalties against the contractors totaled $500,000.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But one former senior ICE official told NPR the changes Bennett points out are minor. The bigger problem is ICE has no incentive to acknowledge problems. One of ICE's \u003ca href=\"https://www.dhs.gov/sites/default/files/publications/19_0318_MGMT_CBJ-Annual-Performance-Review-DHS-Overview_0.pdf\">performance goals\u003c/a> is for all of its detention centers to pass inspection — and the former official, who requested anonymity to protect future employment prospects, says Nakamoto is well aware of the pressures to meet that target.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Nakamoto is a private firm based outside Washington, D.C. Its Japanese American owner, Jennifer Nakamoto, frequently credits her family's experience in World War II internment camps with shaping her company's mission. The company's inspections contract with ICE started in 2011. According to USAspending, the federal government's contracting database, the potential value of Nakamoto's contract was $116 million last fiscal year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Claudia Valenzuela is an attorney with the American Immigration Council, an immigrant advocacy group. She's filed lawsuits seeking information about ICE and its contractors.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I think there should be more public scrutiny of Nakamoto,\" Valenzuela says. \"How did it obtain the contract? How does this company continue to hold that contract?\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Nakamoto says it stands by its performance.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In an email, Nakamoto Vice President Mark Saunders said, \"we have made it abundantly clear that we are in no way political, and we have no agenda other than to do our work.\" He declined an interview, saying the company has already addressed negative allegations.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Last fall, Sen. Elizabeth Warren and other Democrats asked Nakamoto \u003ca href=\"https://www.warren.senate.gov/imo/media/doc/2018-11-16%20Letter%20to%20Nakamoto%20Group%20re%20ICE%20Detention%20Facility%20Inspections.pdf\">to respond to problems\u003c/a> raised in the inspector general's reports.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://www.warren.senate.gov/imo/media/doc/Attachment%203a%20-%20Response%20Letter%20from%20Nakamoto%20Group.pdf\">In her response\u003c/a>, Jennifer Nakamoto quoted from her own company's report, calling the watchdog investigators inexperienced and their findings an \"embarrassment\" to their office. She disputes many of the facts in the reports. She wrote about her mother's birth in an internment camp, saying she and her family have battled prejudice all their lives. \"Without question,\" she wrote, \"the detained immigrant population as a whole has a better life because of what Nakamoto does.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That response has not mollified critics.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Brian Cohen, Warren's oversight and investigations director, says neither Nakamoto nor ICE has shown interest in making changes. He says ICE has also not responded to follow up inquiries sent \u003ca href=\"https://www.warren.senate.gov/imo/media/doc/2019-04-15%20Letter%20to%20ICE%20re%20Private%20Immigration%20Contractors%20CoreCivic%20GEO%20Group%20and%20Nakamoto%20Group.pdf\">in April\u003c/a> and \u003ca href=\"https://www.warren.senate.gov/imo/media/doc/2019.06.20%20Letter%20to%20ICE%20regarding%20the%20use%20of%20solitary%20confinement%20at%20immigration%20detention%20facilities.pdf\">June\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"What we concluded from all this mess is that still, nobody's taken responsibility,\" Cohen says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Nakamoto's contract with ICE is set to expire in September.

"content": "\u003cp>The House of Representatives approved a resolution Tuesday evening condemning the president for a series of racist tweets about four Democratic lawmakers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The vote was mostly along party lines, as the House split 240-187, with four Republicans supporting the non-binding measure. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[pullquote size='medium' align='right' citation=\"House Speaker Nancy Pelosi\"]‘Every single member of this institution, Democratic and Republican, should join us in condemning the president’s racist tweets. To do anything less would be a shocking rejection of our values.’[/pullquote]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Republican Reps. Fred Upton of Michigan, Brian Fitzpatrick of Pennsylvania, Susan Brooks of Indiana and Will Hurd of Texas joined with Democrats to rebuke the president, as did Michigan Rep. Justin Amash, who recently left the GOP to become an independent.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The House was paralyzed for a substantial portion of the afternoon over legislative procedure. Republicans sought a ruling on the question: does calling the president’s tweets “racist” violate the rules of decorum established in the House? \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So an already heated debate turned to farce as the House voted on whether to sanction House Speaker Nancy Pelosi for characterizing the president’s remarks as “racist,” as part of a debate on \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11761692/read-heres-the-resolution-condemning-trumps-racist-comments-about-congresswomen\">a resolution which also calls the president’s remarks “racist.”\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At issue was the phrasing of Pelosi as she spoke in favor of the resolution.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Every single member of this institution, Democratic and Republican, should join us in condemning the president’s racist tweets,” she said. “To do anything less would be a shocking rejection of our values and a shameful abdication of our oath of office to protect the American people.” \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>GOP Rep. Doug Collins, the top Republican on the House Judiciary Committee, objected to the language, calling them “unparliamentary” and called for her comments to be “taken down” — officially removed from the record. When that happens, the lawmaker is no longer allowed to speak on the House floor for the remainder of the day.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Watch a video of Pelosi’s remarks — the exchange with GOP Rep. Collins begins at about the 6:20 mark:\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://youtu.be/vsAt6N7eqwA?t=376\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>House rules prohibit impugning the motives of a person during legislative debate. There is no explicit rule which states that lawmakers cannot call comments “racist,” but there is precedent for declaring these sorts of characterizations out of bounds. The rules and precedents are outlined in Jefferson’s Manual, which lays out parliamentary procedures.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As House staff and lawmakers huddled to sort out what to do and expected a decision, the presiding chair of the House, Rep. Emanuel Cleaver, D-Mo., unexpectedly dropped his gavel and declared that he was “abandoning the chair.” \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iDNGTWPobu4\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Majority Leader Steny Hoyer later delivered the ruling that Pelosi’s words were not in order, but Democrats defeated a vote to strike them from the official congressional record.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Both the attempted sanctioning of the speaker of the House and Cleaver’s decision to walk off the floor and leave the House without a presiding officer are highly unusual developments in the House. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Bay Area Congressman Eric Swalwell used his time on the House floor to list a series of comments President Donald Trump has made, and then called them “racist.” \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Birtherism is racist. Saying a Mexican judge can’t be fair because of his heritage is racist. Saying immigrants from Mexico are rapists is racist,” Swalwell said. “Saying there were good people on both sides in Charlottesville is racist. Calling African countries ‘shithole countries’ is racist.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Rep. Collins again quickly objected to Swalwell’s comments, asking them to be taken down as well.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zu0HbwZFWIc&\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The \u003ca href=\"https://apps.npr.org/documents/document.html?id=6200155-House-Resolution-Condemning-Trump-Comments\">resolution the House was considering\u003c/a> states that the House “strongly condemns President Donald Trump’s racist comments that have legitimized and increased fear and hatred of new Americans and people of color.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The president’s weekend comments about four female members of Congress has done what Trump’s remarks so often do: take control the agenda in Washington, D.C. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As the weekend began, lawmakers expected that this week would be focused primarily on issues like a proposal to raise the minimum wage, a budget deal and a vote holding the attorney general in contempt over the 2020 census. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The \u003ca href=\"https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/1150381395078000643\">president’s tweets\u003c/a> upended the whole order. His tweets, in which he implored four women of color to “go back” to the countries of their ancestry, dominated the conversation in the capital — with Democrats condemning it, and Republicans being asked to defend or denounce it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The statements targeted four freshman progressive lawmakers: Reps. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez of New York, Ilhan Omar of Minnesota, Rashida Tlaib of Michigan and Ayanna Pressley of Massachusetts. All but Omar were born in the United States. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside label=\"Related Coverage\" tag=\"racism\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In response to the president’s comments, Ocasio-Cortez \u003ca href=\"https://twitter.com/AOC/status/1150746839790039040\">responded \u003c/a>that telling people of color to go back to their countries of origin reflects the “hallmark language of white supremacists.” \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ahead of the debate on the House floor Democrats were warned to watch their language. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In a meeting with his Democratic colleagues Tuesday morning, Rules Committee Chairman Jim McGovern, D-Mass., reminded lawmakers about the House rules say they cannot impugn the personal motives of the president. Pelosi suggested to the caucus that they could use phrasing like his “words were racist,” noting that such nuance allows them to make their point and stick within the rules. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While some Republicans in the House and Senate have \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2019/07/15/741771445/trump-continues-twitter-assault-on-4-minority-congresswomen\">criticized \u003c/a>the president’s comments, GOP leadership in the House of Representatives stood with the president. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Asked if the president’s tweets were racist, House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy said on Tuesday that they weren’t. He added that he planned to vote against the Democratic resolution, dismissing it as “it’s all politics.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>House Republican Conference Chair Liz Cheney declining to address the president’s comments directly, instead focusing on attacking the left.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Our opposition to our colleague’s beliefs has absolutely nothing to do with race, or gender or religion,” she told reporters. “We oppose them and their policies because their policies are dangerous and wrong and would destroy America.” \u003c/p>\n\u003cdiv class=\"fullattribution\">Copyright 2019 NPR.

Roosevelt said, “Remember, remember always, that all of us, and you and I especially, are descended from immigrants and revolutionists”;\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Whereas immigration of people from all over the Earth has defined every stage of American history and propelled our social, economic, political, scientific, cultural, artistic, and technological progress as a people, and all Americans, except for the descendants of Native people and enslaved African-Americans, are immigrants or descendants of immigrants;\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Whereas the commitment to immigration and asylum has been not a partisan cause but a powerful national value that has infused the work of many Presidents;\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Whereas American patriotism is defined not by race or ethnicity but by devotion to the Constitutional ideals of equality, liberty, inclusion, and democracy and by service to our communities and struggle for the common good;\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Whereas President John F. Kennedy, whose family came to the United States from Ireland, stated in his 1958 book “A Nation of Immigrants” that “The contribution of immigrants can be seen in every aspect of our national life. We see it in religion, in politics, in business, in the arts, in education, even in athletics and entertainment. There is no part of our nation that has not been touched by our immigrant background. Everywhere immigrants have enriched and strengthened the fabric of American life.”;\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Whereas President Ronald Reagan in his last speech as President conveyed “An observation about a country which I love”;\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Whereas as President Reagan observed, the torch of Lady Liberty symbolizes our freedom and represents our heritage, the compact with our parents, our grandparents, and our ancestors, and it is the Statue of Liberty and its values that give us our great and special place in the world;\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Whereas other countries may seek to compete with us, but in one vital area, as “a beacon of freedom and opportunity that draws the people of the world, no country on Earth comes close”;\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Whereas it is the great life force of “each generation of new Americans that guarantees that America’s triumph shall continue unsurpassed” through the 21st century and beyond and is part of the “magical, intoxicating power of America”;\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Whereas this is “one of the most important sources of America’s greatness: we lead the world because, unique among nations, we draw our people — our strength — from every country and every corner of the world, and by doing so we continuously renew and enrich our nation”;\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Whereas “thanks to each wave of new arrivals to this land of opportunity, we’re a nation forever young, forever bursting with energy and new ideas, and always on the cutting edge”, always leading the world to the next frontier;\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Whereas this openness is vital to our future as a Nation, and “if we ever closed the door to new Americans, our leadership in the world would soon be lost”; and\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Whereas President Trump’s racist comments have legitimized fear and hatred of new Americans and people of color: Now, therefore, be it resolved, That the House of Representatives —\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>(1) believes that immigrants and their descendants have made America stronger, and that those who take the oath of citizenship are every bit as American as those whose families have lived in the United States for many generations;\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>(2) is committed to keeping America open to those lawfully seeking refuge and asylum from violence and oppression, and those who are willing to work hard to live the American Dream, no matter their race, ethnicity, faith, or country of origin; and\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>(3) condemns President Donald Trump’s racist comments that have legitimized and increased fear and hatred of new Americans and people of color by saying that our fellow Americans who are immigrants, and those who may look to the President like immigrants, should “go back” to other countries, by referring to immigrants and asylum seekers as “invaders,” and by saying that Members of Congress who are immigrants (or those of our colleagues who are wrongly assumed to be immigrants) do not belong in Congress or in the United States of America.\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cdiv class=\"fullattribution\">Copyright 2019 NPR.
