What used to be astroturf is now a bubbly black puddle of plastic. The walls of the house cracked, plastic window frames melted, and the roof got so hot it dripped molten tar into the attic.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“So clearly the house has sustained a very intense thermal event. It went through hell,” Tissot said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>To add insult to injury, the place has been looted. But that’s actually the least of Tissot’s problems because, based on the tests conducted in his lab, the house is chemically compromised. Every room contains lead that is over the EPA limit.

The man behind the effort is Gregory Bovino, head of CBP’s El Centro sector.

Bovino deployed 60 agents in unmarked cars in what he dubbed “Operation Return to Sender,” which he claimed was an effort to round up nationals from Mexico, South America and China \u003ca href=\"https://www.kget.com/news/local-news/us-cbp-issues-statement-on-ongoing-operation-return-to-sender-in-bakersfield-area/\">that were in the country illegally and had criminal histories. \u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But once the details of the three-day operation started coming to light, Bovino’s claims about getting criminals off the streets didn’t match \u003ca href=\"https://bakersfieldnow.com/news/local/border-patrol-said-it-targeted-known-criminals-in-kern-county-but-it-had-no-record-on-77\">Border Patrol’s own data\u003c/a>.

Bovino deployed 60 agents in unmarked cars in what he dubbed “Operation Return to Sender,” which he claimed was an effort to round up nationals from Mexico, South America and China \u003ca href=\"https://www.kget.com/news/local-news/us-cbp-issues-statement-on-ongoing-operation-return-to-sender-in-bakersfield-area/\">that were in the country illegally and had criminal histories. \u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But once the details of the three-day operation started coming to light, Bovino’s claims about getting criminals off the streets didn’t match \u003ca href=\"https://bakersfieldnow.com/news/local/border-patrol-said-it-targeted-known-criminals-in-kern-county-but-it-had-no-record-on-77\">Border Patrol’s own data\u003c/a>.

It sits behind a DMV and a battery storage plant. If you drive by, you might miss it. But inside, you’ll find scattered abandoned mobile homes and empty lots alongside trailers where some residents still live.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The park has been home to low income residents, farmworkers and some retired folk. It’s been in rough shape for a few years. Things got worse in 2021 when a series of fires broke out, including one that killed a resident. That’s when the city decided to step in and take over code enforcement from the state.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>After several attempts to force the property owner to bring the park up to code, a receiver was appointed to oversee the clean-up. The receiver proposed selling the park. Attorney Mariah Thompson represents a group of people who live there. She says they had just one request. “The only thing we ask is that you do not sell it to Harmony Communities,” they told her. Harmony operates dozens of mobile home parks in California and Oregon.

It’s been in rough shape for a few years. Things got worse in 2021 when a series of fires broke out, including one that killed a resident. That’s when the city decided to step in and take over code enforcement from the state.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>After several attempts to force the property owner to bring the park up to code, a receiver was appointed to oversee the clean-up. The receiver proposed selling the park. Attorney Mariah Thompson represents a group of people who live there.

He said he plans to impose 34% tariffs on China, 20% on the European Union and 24% on Japan, among an array of other trading partners.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This comes after Trump announced late last month that he’s imposing 25% tariffs on imported cars and car parts, using his national security powers to take the action. These actions have California car dealers on edge. “I think there’s just a lot of ambiguity right now of what’s really gonna happen. How long are these tariffs gonna last? And then we just have to really see how it starts hitting the market,” said Brian Ellis who works at Glendale Dodge, Chrysler and Jeep in Los Angeles County. “I don’t think we’re really gonna see an uptick on pricing for potentially 30 to 60 days until we start getting the new inventory.”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>\u003cstrong>California Farmers Brace For Fallout From Tariffs\u003c/strong>\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>In 2018, during President Trump’s first term in office, the U.S. engaged in \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2018/07/06/626453571/china-says-u-s-has-begun-largest-trade-war-in-history-retaliates-with-tariffs\">a trade war with China.\u003c/a> The U.S. Department of Agriculture estimates that farmers took a more than $27 billion loss from retaliatory tariffs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The new tariffs introduced by the Trump administration this week will likely have \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2025/04/03/g-s1-57918/tariffs-threaten-to-upend-markets-american-farmers-depend-on\">a huge impact\u003c/a> on California farmers. “As the country’s largest agricultural exporting state, California’s farmers and ranchers are at significant risk of bearing the brunt of any potential retaliatory actions resulting from the broad imposition of global tariffs,” California Farm Bureau President Shannon Douglass said in a statement. “With annual exports exceeding $20 billion, our fresh fruits, vegetables, tree nuts and other commodities help feed not only the state and the nation, but communities around the world.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Colin Carter, a professor of agricultural economics at UC Davis, said during the last trade war with China, California growers suffered. “A perfectly good example is tree nuts. They had a very large share in the China market prior to the 2018-2019 trade war launched by President Trump. The US market share in China for tree nuts at that time was over 90%,” he said. “The trade war caused China to retaliate and raise its own tariffs against the U.S. and against California. And that market share of tree nuts going to China fell from 94% to 53%. And what happened was that China increased its own production to a certain extent, but they also pivoted to other countries. And that market share has not come back.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In \u003ca href=\"https://www.gov.ca.gov/2025/04/04/governor-newsom-directs-state-to-pursue-strategic-relationships-with-international-trading-partners-urges-exemptions-of-california-made-products-from-tariffs/\">response to the tariffs\u003c/a>, Governor Newsom has directed his administration to pursue new trade relationships with international partners.

They had a very large share in the China market prior to the 2018-2019 trade war launched by President Trump. The US market share in China for tree nuts at that time was over 90%,” he said. “The trade war caused China to retaliate and raise its own tariffs against the U.S. and against California. And that market share of tree nuts going to China fell from 94% to 53%. And what happened was that China increased its own production to a certain extent, but they also pivoted to other countries. And that market share has not come back.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In \u003ca href=\"https://www.gov.ca.gov/2025/04/04/governor-newsom-directs-state-to-pursue-strategic-relationships-with-international-trading-partners-urges-exemptions-of-california-made-products-from-tariffs/\">response to the tariffs\u003c/a>, Governor Newsom has directed his administration to pursue new trade relationships with international partners.

Back in 2020, voters here supported Joe Biden over Donald Trump in the presidential election by a 55%-42% margin. In November, Trump won the 22nd District, 52%-46% over Kamala Harris.

Now, Republicans in Congress are moving ahead with plans to slash the health care program. House Republicans passed a budget resolution in February that set a goal of $2 trillion in spending cuts. It was the first step toward passing a budget that party leaders hope will include over $4.5 trillion in new spending and tax cuts. Top Republicans ruled out reductions to Social Security, Medicare and defense, leaving Medicaid as the most expensive program on the chopping block.

Rent is an issue in every corner of this state.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The bill is one of a \u003ca href=\"https://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billNavClient.xhtml?bill_id=202520260AB1248\">handful\u003c/a> \u003ca href=\"https://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billNavClient.xhtml?bill_id=202520260SB436\">of\u003c/a> \u003ca href=\"https://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billTextClient.xhtml?bill_id=202520260SB52\">proposed\u003c/a> \u003ca href=\"https://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billNavClient.xhtml?bill_id=202520260SB522\">legislation\u003c/a> aimed at strengthening tenants’ rights.

Up a gravel road banked with iron-rich red soil, Dylan Knight took a break from stacking logs. Knight is one of 10 student loggers at Shasta College training to operate the heavy equipment required for modern-day logging: processors to remove limbs from logs that have just been cut, skidders to pull logs out of the cutting site, loaders to stack and sort the logs by species and masticators to mulch up debris.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For centuries, logging was a seasonal, learn-on-the-job trade passed down from father to son. But as climate change and innovations in the industry have changed logging into a year-round business, there aren’t always enough workers to fill jobs. “Our workforce was dying,” said Delbert Gannon, owner of Creekside Logging. “You couldn’t even pick from the bottom of the barrel.

In 2018 Gannon’s company had jobs to do, and the machines to do them, but nobody to do the work.

This was just two days after the murder of George Floyd in Minneapolis. And what happened next would become a local flashpoint in the broader reckoning over racial justice. Johnson, who is Black, answered the officer’s questions. And then Dages, who is white, grabbed Johnson’s shirt.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The exchange was captured on the officer’s body camera and video of Johnson’s arrest went viral. Days later, La Mesa was engulfed in \u003ca class=\"Link\" href=\"https://www.kpbs.org/news/local/2022/05/30/in-photos-two-years-later-remembering-a-day-of-unrest-in-la-mesa\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-cms-ai=\"0\">\u003cu>protests\u003c/u>\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Dages was fired after an administrative investigation found he made false statements in a police report. He claimed Johnson was smoking in a nonsmoking area and took a fighting stance toward the officer.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In years past, Dages might have been able to leave La Mesa and find another job in a police department elsewhere in the state. Such scenarios happened enough over the years that they entered the police reform lexicon — advocates call it the “wandering officer” phenomenon. But under a state law passed in 2021, Dages lost his certification for good — meaning he can’t be an officer anywhere in California. In the last two years, the state has decertified nearly 300 officers for excessive use of force, dishonesty, sexual assault and other violations. That includes 20 officers in San Diego County who lost their badges. But the accountability at the heart of this recent law is happening slowly. The decision as to whether an officer should lose their badge rests with the California Commission on Peace Officer Standards and Training (POST).

This was just two days after the murder of George Floyd in Minneapolis. And what happened next would become a local flashpoint in the broader reckoning over racial justice. Johnson, who is Black, answered the officer’s questions. And then Dages, who is white, grabbed Johnson’s shirt.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The exchange was captured on the officer’s body camera and video of Johnson’s arrest went viral. Days later, La Mesa was engulfed in \u003ca class=\"Link\" href=\"https://www.kpbs.org/news/local/2022/05/30/in-photos-two-years-later-remembering-a-day-of-unrest-in-la-mesa\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-cms-ai=\"0\">\u003cu>protests\u003c/u>\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Dages was fired after an administrative investigation found he made false statements in a police report. He claimed Johnson was smoking in a nonsmoking area and took a fighting stance toward the officer.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In years past, Dages might have been able to leave La Mesa and find another job in a police department elsewhere in the state. Such scenarios happened enough over the years that they entered the police reform lexicon — advocates call it the “wandering officer” phenomenon. But under a state law passed in 2021, Dages lost his certification for good — meaning he can’t be an officer anywhere in California. In the last two years, the state has decertified nearly 300 officers for excessive use of force, dishonesty, sexual assault and other violations. That includes 20 officers in San Diego County who lost their badges. But the accountability at the heart of this recent law is happening slowly. The decision as to whether an officer should lose their badge rests with the California Commission on Peace Officer Standards and Training (POST). POST has received tens of thousands of officer misconduct reports since 2023. The majority of these cases remain open, as the agency struggles to hire investigators.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>\u003cstrong>Social Media Bills To Be Heard In Committee\u003c/strong>\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Two bills aiming to limit the harms of social media on children will face their first hearing in the California legislature on Tuesday.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",
