"bio": "• I write and edit stories about how Silicon Valley power and policies shape everyday life in California. I’m also passionate about making Bay Area history and culture more accessible to a broad public. • I’ve been a journalist for most of my life, starting in high school with The Franklin Press in Los Angeles, where I grew up. While earning my first degree in English at UC Berkeley, I got my start in public radio at KALX-FM. After completing a second degree in journalism at Cal, I landed my first professional job at Marketplace, then moved on to KPCC (now LAist), and then KQED, where I hosted The California Report for more than seven years. • My reporting has appeared on NPR, The World, WBUR’s \u003ci>Here & Now\u003c/i>, and the BBC. I also guest host for KQED’s \u003ci>Forum\u003c/i>, as well as the Commonwealth Club in San Francisco. • I speak periodically on media, democracy and technology issues, and do voiceover work for documentaries and educational video projects. • Outside of the studio, you'll find me hiking Bay Area trails and whipping up Insta-ready meals in my kitchen. • I do not accept gifts, money, or favors from anyone connected to my reporting, I don't pay people for information, and I do not support or donate to political causes. • I strive to treat the people I report on with fairness, honesty, and respect. I also recognize there are often multiple sides to a story and work to verify information through multiple sources and documentation. If I get something wrong, I correct it.",

His work has appeared on Newsweek.com, Slate.com, CBSNews.com, MotherJones.com, DailyKos.com and NPR’s web site. Fiore’s political animation has appeared on CNN, Frontline, Bill Moyers Journal, Salon.com and cable and broadcast outlets across the globe.\r\n\r\nBeginning his professional life by drawing traditional political cartoons for newspapers, Fiore’s work appeared in publications ranging from the Washington Post to the Los Angeles Times. In the late 1990s, he began to experiment with animating political cartoons and, after a short stint at the San Jose Mercury News as their staff cartoonist, Fiore devoted all his energies to animation.\r\nGrowing up in California, Fiore also spent a good portion of his life in the backwoods of Idaho. It was this combination that shaped him politically. Mark majored in political science at Colorado College, where, in a perfect send-off for a cartoonist, he received his diploma in 1991 as commencement speaker Dick Cheney smiled approvingly.\r\nMark Fiore was awarded the Pulitzer Prize for political cartooning in 2010, a Robert F. Kennedy Journalism Award in 2004 and has twice received an Online Journalism Award for commentary from the Online News Association (2002, 2008). Fiore has received two awards for his work in new media from the National Cartoonists Society (2001, 2002), and in 2006 received The James Madison Freedom of Information Award from The Society of Professional Journalists.",

This week brought more of that into focus. Giuliani, Volker and Sondland all are known to have been in touch with Zelenskiy or people in his camp.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But what Sondland told Congress was that he was kept in the dark about the full dimensions of Trump’s plans for Kyiv. Once he and the others learned military assistance to Ukraine had been frozen, Sondland said he opposed the picture he was piecing together.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>\u003cstrong>Who Knew What When\u003c/strong>\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Sondland’s account is important for two reasons: First, he told members of Congress that the account he was given of Trump’s call with Zelenskiy did not mention the request for investigations about the Democrats’ server or Biden.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That suggests, if correct, that the White House was hiding those details even from members of its own administration handling Ukraine.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Second, it’s important for Sondland’s sake because he’s the one who sent a text message — among \u003ca href=\"https://apps.npr.org/documents/document.html?id=6453863-Ukraine-Texts-100319\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">those released earlier\u003c/a> by Democrats — that declared to other diplomats dubious about the Ukraine pressure scheme that Trump had made clear it was not a quid pro quo.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>What Sondland\u003ca

on Thursday was that as he and others within the State Department realized that Trump expected concessions from Zelenskiy and then had frozen the military aid, Sondland phoned Trump to ask personally about what they were doing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In what Sondland described as a brief conversation with a grouchy Trump, the diplomat recalled the president repeating the words “no quid pro quo with Ukraine.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sondland \u003ca href=\"https://www.washingtonpost.com/world/national-security/trumps-envoy-who-denied-quid-pro-quo-now-says-he-isnt-certain/2019/10/12/4abe0902-bc19-44e8-8c38-9aa35c544859_story.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">reportedly was prepared\u003c/a> to tell House investigators that all he was doing in his subsequent text message was conveying to the others what Trump had said, not validating or endorsing that position.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The question about a “quid pro quo” is important in case there are legal issues for the diplomats involved, Giuliani or, theoretically, Trump — although one lesson from the Russia imbroglio was that Trump needn’t worry about\u003ca

Department\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside tag='impeachment' label='RELATED STORIES']\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That’s why some Democrats argue their only recourse now is the quasi-legal, mostly political — and historically rare — path toward impeachment.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>\u003cstrong>“Get Over It”\u003c/strong>\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>What also makes the Ukraine affair unusual in the pantheon of Washington scandals is how quickly the facts about it flashed into public view and how readily the White House has acknowledged so many of them.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Mulvaney, the acting chief of staff, told reporters on Thursday that, yes, Trump expected concessions from Zelenskiy in exchange for engagement with the United States — but that’s how this game is played, he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And as for what Mulvaney called the complaints by the State Department and national security officials about Trump giving the Ukraine portfolio to Giuliani, he called it sour grapes by jealous bureaucrats.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The administration works for the president, all foreign policy is political and everyone, Mulvaney said, needs to \u003ca

T-shirt\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Mulvaney later sought to walk back some of what he said in his press conference — specifically that Trump’s request that Zelenskiy investigate the Democrats’ “server” was a “quid pro quo.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But the words already were out in the open, and another point he made also endures: The Ukraine affair, for everything else it is, isn’t a cover-up.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>\u003cstrong>The Investigation Wears On\u003c/strong>\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Republicans have faulted the impeachment inquiry as illegitimate and White House counsel Pat Cipollone vowed that the administration \u003ca href=\"https://assets.documentcloud.org/documents/6459842/White-House-Letter-to-Speaker-Pelosi-Et-Al-10-08.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">wouldn’t participate\u003c/a> in it — but the stream of witnesses into the Capitol hasn’t slowed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Although Cipollone’s objections may mean that members of Congress don’t hear from some of the boldfaced names they might request, including Pompeo, Bolton, Giuliani and Vice President Pence, investigators do have a full dance card.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Starting on Tuesday, House investigators are scheduled to hear from the current top U.S. diplomat in Ukraine, Bill Taylor, who took over the mission to Kyiv after Yovanovitch was withdrawn and whose texts were among those released earlier.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On Wednesday, the House is scheduled to hear from another State Department official, Ambassador Philip Reeker, as well as Michael Duffey, associate director for national security programs within the Office of Management and Budget.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On Thursday, investigators are set to take depositions from Deputy Assistant Secretary of Defense Laura Cooper and Lt. Col. Alexander Vindman. And that’s not all, according to one official working on the impeachment inquiry.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The committees are in ongoing discussions with other witnesses, and we look forward to their testimony,” the official said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cdiv class=\"fullattribution\">\u003cem>Copyright 2019 NPR.

It’s not like they’re sitting on their hands. And we haven’t seen a single high-rise tower break ground in nearly two years,” Liccardo said. “So we’ve got a market that is telling us simply that it’s not viable to move forward unless we do something to reduce the cost.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Still, several council members balked in the face of criticism from people like Louise Auerhahn, director of Economic and Workforce Policy with \u003ca href=\"https://www.wpusa.org\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Working Partnerships San Jose\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Every single time, we’re promised this is the last time. Well, now it’s 2019. We’ve had this temporary subsidy for well over a decade, and while we’ve been running this experiment, has this model worked to produce affordable housing? No!” Auerhahn said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The vote followed the most contentious reassessment of the incentives in more than a decade.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>San Jose officials first approved the Downtown High Rise Incentive Program before the Great Recession brought development to a screeching halt in late 2007. Since then, the City Council has extended the program both in terms of dates and benefits.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As it stood, the incentive package included a 50%-off discount on park impact fees, as well as two primary construction taxes, and delays payment of those construction fees until the development has tenants in place renting units.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>More controversially, downtown developers also get a break on a $17-a-square-foot affordable housing impact fee, if they meet certain criteria designed to spur construction sooner rather than later.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>City staff calculate that the program can be credited with adding 1,522 units since it began, and an additional 1,043 units in the pipeline.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>That was then, this is now\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>In the last two years, Google has launched an expansion on a \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/forum/2010101868581/san-jose-city-council-set-to-approve-google-campus\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">massive scale\u003c/a> near Diridon Station downtown, fueling a local real estate gold rush in a neighborhood that has struggled for decades.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The local chamber of commerce argued this is no time to end the party by allowing construction incentives to lapse.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside tag='housing' label='More Coverage']\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Many of these cranes are here specifically because of the fee reduction program.
