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.",

All of which failed to unlock the phone.

And NPR was not independently able to verify the claims.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When the iPhone X was unveiled in September, Apple marketing executive Philip Schiller said \u003ca href=\"https://www.apple.com/vn/apple-events/september-2017/\">the that Face ID's creators\u003c/a> had developed a \"neural engine\" to process facial recognition that wouldn't \"easily be spoofed by things like photographs,\" he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"They've even gone and worked with professional mask-makers and makeup artists in Hollywood to protect against these attempts to defeat Face ID. ...

"content": "\u003cp>In the same affluent suburban city where Google built its headquarters, Tes Saldana lives in a crowded but tidy camper she parks on the street.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She concedes it’s “not a very nice living situation,” but it also is not unusual. Until authorities told them to move, more than a dozen other RVs filled with people who can’t afford rent joined Saldana on a tree-lined street in Mountain View, parked between a Target and a luxury apartment complex.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Homeless advocates and city officials say it’s outrageous that in the shadow of a booming tech economy — where young millionaires dine on $15 wood-grilled avocado and think nothing of paying $1,000 for an iPhone X — thousands of families can’t afford a home. Many of the homeless work regular jobs, in some cases serving the very people whose sky-high net worth is the reason housing has become unaffordable for so many.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Across the street from Saldana’s camper, for example, two-bedroom units in the apartment complex start at $3,840, including concierge service. That’s more than she brings home, even in a good month.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Saldana and her three adult sons, who live with her, have looked for less rustic accommodations, but rents are $3,000 a month or more, and most of the available housing is distant. She said it makes more sense to stay in the camper near their jobs and try to save for a brighter future, even if a recent city crackdown chased them from their parking spot.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We still need to eat,” said Saldana, 51. “I still want to bring my kids, once in a while, to a movie, to eat out.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She cooks and serves food at two hotels in nearby Palo Alto, jobs that keep her going most days from 5 in the morning until 10 at night. Two of her sons, all in their 20s, work at a bakery and pay $700 toward the RV each month. They’re all very much aware of the economic disparity in Silicon Valley.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“How about for us people who are serving these tech people?” Saldana said. “We don’t get the same paycheck that they do.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It’s all part of a growing crisis along the West Coast, where many cities and counties have seen a surge in the number of people living on the streets over the past two years. Counts taken earlier this year show 168,000 homeless people in California, Oregon and Washington — 20,000 more than were counted just two years ago.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The booming economy, fueled by the tech sector, and decades of under-building have led to a historic shortage of affordable housing. It has upended the stereotypical view of people out on the streets as unemployed: They are retail clerks, plumbers, janitors — even teachers — who go to work, sleep where they can and buy gym memberships for a place to shower.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The surge in homelessness has prompted at least 10 local governments along the West Coast to declare states of emergency, and cities from San Diego to Seattle are struggling to come up with immediate and long-range solutions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>San Francisco is well-known for homeless tent encampments. But the homeless problem has now spread throughout Silicon Valley, where the disparity between the rich and everyone else is glaring.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There is no firm estimate on the number of people who live in vehicles in Silicon Valley, but the problem is pervasive and apparent to anyone who sees RVs lining thoroughfares; not as visible are the cars tucked away at night in parking lots. Advocates for the homeless say it will only get worse unless more affordable housing is built.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The median rent in the San Jose metro area is $3,500 a month, yet the median wage is $12 an hour in food service and $19 an hour in health care support, an amount that won’t even cover housing costs. The minimum annual salary needed to live comfortably in San Jose is $87,000, according to a study by personal finance website GoBankingRates.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So dilapidated RVs line the eastern edge of Stanford University in Palo Alto, and officials in neighboring Mountain View have mapped out more than a dozen areas where campers tend to cluster, some of them about a mile from Google headquarters.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On a recent evening, Benito Hernandez returned to a crammed RV in Mountain View after laying flagstones for a home in Atherton, where Zillow pegs the median value of a house at $6.5 million. He rents the RV for $1,000 a month and lives there with his pregnant wife and children.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The family was evicted two years ago from an apartment where the rent kept going up, nearing $3,000 a month.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“After that, I lost everything,” said Hernandez, 33, who works as a landscaper and roofer.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He says his wife “is a little bit sad because she says, ‘You’re working very hard but don’t have credit to get an apartment.’ I tell her, ‘Just wait, maybe a half-year more, and I’ll get my credit back.’ ”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The plight of the Hernandez family points out one of the confounding problems of the homeless surge along the West Coast.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This is not a crisis of unemployment that’s leading to poverty around here,” said Tom Myers, executive director of Community Services Agency, a nonprofit based in Mountain View. “People are working.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Mountain View, a city of 80,000 which also is home to Mozilla and 23andMe, has committed more than $1 million over two years for homeless services, including money for an outreach case manager and a police officer to help people who live in vehicles. At last count, there were people living in more than 330 vehicles throughout the city.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Mayor Ken Rosenberg is proud of the city’s response to the crisis — focusing not on penalties but on providing services. Yet he’s also worried that the peace won’t last as RVs crowd into bike lanes and overtaxed streets.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Last week, Mountain View officials posted signs banning vehicles more than 6 feet high on some parts of the street where Saldana, Hernandez and others living in RVs were parked, saying they were creating a traffic hazard. The average RV is well over that height.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That follows similar moves over the summer by Palo Alto, which started cracking down on RVs and other vehicles that exceed the 72-hour limit on a busy stretch of El Camino Real.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In San Jose, officials recently approved an ordinance pushed by an interfaith group called the Winter Faith Collaborative to allow places of assembly — including gyms and churches — to shelter homeless people year-round.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ellen Tara James-Penney, a 54-year-old lecturer at San Jose State University, parks her old Volvo at one of those safe-haven churches, Grace Baptist Church, and eats in its dining hall. She is paid $28,000 a year to teach four English classes and is carrying $143,000 in student debt after earning two degrees.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She grades papers and prepares lessons in the Volvo. At night, she leans back in the driver’s seat and prepares for sleep, one of two dogs, Hank, by her side. Her husband, Jim, who is too tall for the car, sleeps outside in a tent cot with their other dog, Buddy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Bay Area native remembers the time a class was studying John Steinbeck, when another student said that she was sick of hearing about the homeless.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“And I said, ‘Watch your mouth. You’re looking at one.’ Then you could have heard a pin drop,” she said. “It’s quite easy to judge when you have a house to live in or you have meds when you’re depressed and health care.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In response to growing wealth inequities, unions, civil rights groups and community organizations formed Silicon Valley Rising about three years ago. They demand better pay and benefits for the low-income earners who make the region run.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>SEIU United Service Workers West, for example, organized roughly 3,000 security guards who work for companies that contract with Facebook, Google and Caltrain, the mass transit system that connects Silicon Valley with San Francisco.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One of those workers is Albert Brown III, a 46-year-old security officer who recently signed a lease for half of a $3,400 two-bedroom unit in Half Moon Bay, about 13 miles from his job.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He can barely afford the rent on his $16-an-hour salary, even with overtime, but the car that doubled as his home needed a pricey repair and he found a landlord willing to overlook his lousy credit. Still, Brown worries he won’t be able to keep up with his payments.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>His feet have been hurting. What if a doctor tells him to rest for a few days or a week?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I can’t miss a minute. If I miss a minute or a shift? No way, man. A week? Forget it, it’s over. It’s all downhill from there,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s a sad choice. I have to decide whether to be homeless or penniless, right?”\u003c/p>\n\n",

Two of her sons, all in their 20s, work at a bakery and pay $700 toward the RV each month. They’re all very much aware of the economic disparity in Silicon Valley.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“How about for us people who are serving these tech people?” Saldana said. “We don’t get the same paycheck that they do.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It’s all part of a growing crisis along the West Coast, where many cities and counties have seen a surge in the number of people living on the streets over the past two years. Counts taken earlier this year show 168,000 homeless people in California, Oregon and Washington — 20,000 more than were counted just two years ago.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The booming economy, fueled by the tech sector, and decades of under-building have led to a historic shortage of affordable housing. It has upended the stereotypical view of people out on the streets as unemployed: They are retail clerks, plumbers, janitors — even teachers — who go to work, sleep where they can and buy gym memberships for a place to shower.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The surge in homelessness has prompted at least 10 local governments along the West Coast to declare states of emergency, and cities from San Diego to Seattle are struggling to come up with immediate and long-range solutions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>San Francisco is well-known for homeless tent encampments. But the homeless problem has now spread throughout Silicon Valley, where the disparity between the rich and everyone else is glaring.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There is no firm estimate on the number of people who live in vehicles in Silicon Valley, but the problem is pervasive and apparent to anyone who sees RVs lining thoroughfares; not as visible are the cars tucked away at night in parking lots. Advocates for the homeless say it will only get worse unless more affordable housing is built.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The median rent in the San Jose metro area is $3,500 a month, yet the median wage is $12 an hour in food service and $19 an hour in health care support, an amount that won’t even cover housing costs. The minimum annual salary needed to live comfortably in San Jose is $87,000, according to a study by personal finance website GoBankingRates.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So dilapidated RVs line the eastern edge of Stanford University in Palo Alto, and officials in neighboring Mountain View have mapped out more than a dozen areas where campers tend to cluster, some of them about a mile from Google headquarters.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On a recent evening, Benito Hernandez returned to a crammed RV in Mountain View after laying flagstones for a home in Atherton, where Zillow pegs the median value of a house at $6.5 million. He rents the RV for $1,000 a month and lives there with his pregnant wife and children.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The family was evicted two years ago from an apartment where the rent kept going up, nearing $3,000 a month.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“After that, I lost everything,” said Hernandez, 33, who works as a landscaper and roofer.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He says his wife “is a little bit sad because she says, ‘You’re working very hard but don’t have credit to get an apartment.’ I tell her, ‘Just wait, maybe a half-year more, and I’ll get my credit back.’ ”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The plight of the Hernandez family points out one of the confounding problems of the homeless surge along the West Coast.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This is not a crisis of unemployment that’s leading to poverty around here,” said Tom Myers, executive director of Community Services Agency, a nonprofit based in Mountain View. “People are working.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Mountain View, a city of 80,000 which also is home to Mozilla and 23andMe, has committed more than $1 million over two years for homeless services, including money for an outreach case manager and a police officer to help people who live in vehicles. At last count, there were people living in more than 330 vehicles throughout the city.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Mayor Ken Rosenberg is proud of the city’s response to the crisis — focusing not on penalties but on providing services. Yet he’s also worried that the peace won’t last as RVs crowd into bike lanes and overtaxed streets.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Last week, Mountain View officials posted signs banning vehicles more than 6 feet high on some parts of the street where Saldana, Hernandez and others living in RVs were parked, saying they were creating a traffic hazard. The average RV is well over that height.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That follows similar moves over the summer by Palo Alto, which started cracking down on RVs and other vehicles that exceed the 72-hour limit on a busy stretch of El Camino Real.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In San Jose, officials recently approved an ordinance pushed by an interfaith group called the Winter Faith Collaborative to allow places of assembly — including gyms and churches — to shelter homeless people year-round.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ellen Tara James-Penney, a 54-year-old lecturer at San Jose State University, parks her old Volvo at one of those safe-haven churches, Grace Baptist Church, and eats in its dining hall. She is paid $28,000 a year to teach four English classes and is carrying $143,000 in student debt after earning two degrees.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She grades papers and prepares lessons in the Volvo. At night, she leans back in the driver’s seat and prepares for sleep, one of two dogs, Hank, by her side. Her husband, Jim, who is too tall for the car, sleeps outside in a tent cot with their other dog, Buddy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Bay Area native remembers the time a class was studying John Steinbeck, when another student said that she was sick of hearing about the homeless.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“And I said, ‘Watch your mouth. You’re looking at one.’ Then you could have heard a pin drop,” she said. “It’s quite easy to judge when you have a house to live in or you have meds when you’re depressed and health care.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In response to growing wealth inequities, unions, civil rights groups and community organizations formed Silicon Valley Rising about three years ago. They demand better pay and benefits for the low-income earners who make the region run.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>SEIU United Service Workers West, for example, organized roughly 3,000 security guards who work for companies that contract with Facebook, Google and Caltrain, the mass transit system that connects Silicon Valley with San Francisco.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One of those workers is Albert Brown III, a 46-year-old security officer who recently signed a lease for half of a $3,400 two-bedroom unit in Half Moon Bay, about 13 miles from his job.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He can barely afford the rent on his $16-an-hour salary, even with overtime, but the car that doubled as his home needed a pricey repair and he found a landlord willing to overlook his lousy credit. Still, Brown worries he won’t be able to keep up with his payments.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>His feet have been hurting. What if a doctor tells him to rest for a few days or a week?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I can’t miss a minute. If I miss a minute or a shift? No way, man. A week? Forget it, it’s over. It’s all downhill from there,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

But critics of the arrangement note that in addition to Shamalov, another of Sibur's co-owners is Gennady Timchenko, a close Putin ally who is currently under U.S. sanctions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As for the money generated by the deal, Swaine says, \"Navigator's brought in about $68 million in revenue since 2014 from the deal. The contract is worth at least $200 million a year, and it's scheduled to continue for about a decade.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Referring to Sibur, the commerce secretary said, \"The fact that it happens to be called a Russian company does not mean that there's any evil in it.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Referring to his financial disclosure Form 278 that was filed with the U.S. Office of Government Ethics, Ross said, \"Where there is evil is the misstatement that I did not disclose those holdings in my original form.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Another high-profile figure named in the papers is \u003ca href=\"https://offshoreleaks.cloud.icij.org/stories/queen-elizabeth-ii\">Queen Elizabeth\u003c/a>, who reportedly had around 10 million pounds (some $13 million) of her money offshore, \u003ca href=\"http://www.bbc.com/news/live/world-41879690\">the BBC says\u003c/a>. The queen's investments included a previously undisclosed stake in a Cayman fund in control of a rent-to-own company called BrightHouse, which, as the \u003cem>Guardian \u003c/em>reports, has been criticized \"for exploiting thousands of poor families and vulnerable people.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://www.theguardian.com/news/2017/nov/05/revealed-queen-private-estate-invested-offshore-paradise-papers\">The Guardian notes\u003c/a> that Elizabeth's estate, the Duchy of Lancaster, says it was unaware of the holding prior to being contacted by news agencies.

Both tech firms and members of President Trump's inner circle have faced scrutiny; the Paradise Papers add to that conversation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"More recently, Milner invested $850,000 in Cadre, a real estate firm co-founded by Trump's son-in-law and White House adviser, Jared Kushner,\" \u003ca href=\"https://www.icij.org/investigations/paradise-papers/paradise-papers-exposes-donald-trump-russia-links-and-piggy-banks-of-the-wealthiest-1-percent/\">the ICIJ reports\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The ICIJ adds, \"Milner is a Russian citizen who lives in Silicon Valley.

That prompted Apple to make a plan with Appleby to use subsidiaries to park money in Jersey, a tax haven in the English Channel, according to \u003ca href=\"https://www.icij.org/investigations/paradise-papers/apples-secret-offshore-island-hop-revealed-by-paradise-papers-leak-icij/\">the ICIJ\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As \u003ca href=\"https://www.nytimes.com/2017/11/06/world/apple-taxes-jersey.html?hp&action=click&pgtype=Homepage&clickSource=story-heading&module=second-column-region®ion=top-news&WT.nav=top-news\">the New York Times reports\u003c/a>, \"Apple has accumulated more than $128 billion in profits offshore, and probably much more, that is untaxed by the United States and hardly touched by any other country. Nearly all of that was generated over the past decade.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Another Trump Cabinet member, Secretary of State Rex Tillerson, is mentioned in the documents as a former director of a Bermuda company named Marib Upstream Services Co., which the ICIJ says was \"created to conduct oil and gas operations\" in Yemen. Tillerson reportedly served on Marib's board for roughly a year, from 1997 to 1998.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[contextly_sidebar id=\"l3oAyMgTe6NyZH6cYbeIEtX7v2L3PVat\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The report also highlights two Democrats who are not currently in government. \u003ca href=\"https://offshoreleaks.icij.org/stories/penny-pritzker\">Former Commerce Secretary Penny Pritzker\u003c/a> is said to have transferred shares of two companies into a limited liability corporation that is referred to as being \"owned by trusts that are for the benefit of Penny Pritzker's children,\" the ICIJ says, citing Appleby documents. The move was made just after Pritzker was confirmed; the report says she later filed ethics paperwork in which the holdings were \"simply listed as having been sold.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In a shorter entry, former \u003ca href=\"https://offshoreleaks.cloud.icij.org/stories/wesley-k-clark\">presidential candidate Wesley Clark\u003c/a> is mentioned for his ties to Amaya, an online gaming company that is now called the Stars Group.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Paradise Papers are the fruit of a new branch of the work that brought \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-way/2016/04/04/472985787/heres-what-you-need-to-know-so-far-about-panama-papers\">the Panama Papers\u003c/a> to light in 2015 and 2016. Those leaked documents caused embarrassment among the elites in several countries, from the U.K. to Ukraine, and resulted in the prime ministers of Iceland and Pakistan leaving office.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The leaked Appleby records that are at the heart of the Paradise Papers detail more ties to the U.S. than to any other nation, according to the ICIJ.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"At least 31,000 of the individual and corporate clients included in Appleby's records are U.S. citizens or have U.S. addresses, more than from any other country,\" \u003ca href=\"https://www.icij.org/investigations/paradise-papers/about/\">the ICIJ said in a statement about the release\u003c/a>. \"Appleby also counted clients from the United Kingdom, China and Canada among its biggest sources of business.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.cbc.ca/news/business/stephen-bronfman-trudeau-paradise-papers-1.4382511\">The Canadian Broadcasting Corp. reports\u003c/a> that the names of more than 3,000 Canadian citizens, companies and other entities appear in the Paradise Papers, including three former prime ministers: Brian Mulroney, Jean Chrétien and Paul Martin.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Also mentioned is Stephen Bronfman, a key fundraiser for Prime Minister Justin Trudeau. Noting that Trudeau has mentioned tax fairness as a priority, the CBC says that Bronfman, a Seagram family heir, and his investment company, Claridge Inc., \"were key players linked to a $60 million U.S. offshore trust in the Cayman Islands that may have cost Canadians millions in unpaid taxes.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>More revelations seem likely to come from the Paradise Papers — so far, we're seeing only a sampling of the documents; the stories that were launched by dozens of collaborating media outlets on Sunday reflect only the highlights of the data. A member of the ICIJ's data team says the group will release \"the full structured data from the Paradise Papers investigation in the coming weeks.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As for the timeline described in the leaked documents, the ICIJ says the records date back to 1950 and run forward to 2016.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In response to the reports, Appleby released a statement saying in part, \"The journalists do not allege, nor could they, that Appleby has done anything unlawful. There is no wrongdoing. It is a patchwork quilt of unrelated allegations with a clear political agenda and movement against offshore.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The law firm added, \"We wish to reiterate that our firm was not the subject of a leak but of a serious criminal act. This was an illegal computer hack.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>News of offshore accounts and tax havens has been grabbing headlines since it broke on Sunday. But the ICIJ warns against assuming the guilt of anyone mentioned in its reporting. Noting that there are \"legitimate uses for offshore companies and trusts,\" the group says, \"we do not intend to suggest or imply that any people, companies or other entities included in the ICIJ Offshore Leaks Database have broken the law or otherwise acted improperly.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The International Consortium of Investigative Journalists was founded in 1997, as part of the Center for Public Integrity; it became an independent organization early in 2017.\u003c/p>\n\n",

That prompted Apple to make a plan with Appleby to use subsidiaries to park money in Jersey, a tax haven in the English Channel, according to \u003ca href=\"https://www.icij.org/investigations/paradise-papers/apples-secret-offshore-island-hop-revealed-by-paradise-papers-leak-icij/\">the ICIJ\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As \u003ca href=\"https://www.nytimes.com/2017/11/06/world/apple-taxes-jersey.html?hp&action=click&pgtype=Homepage&clickSource=story-heading&module=second-column-region®ion=top-news&WT.nav=top-news\">the New York Times reports\u003c/a>, \"Apple has accumulated more than $128 billion in profits offshore, and probably much more, that is untaxed by the United States and hardly touched by any other country. Nearly all of that was generated over the past decade.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Another Trump Cabinet member, Secretary of State Rex Tillerson, is mentioned in the documents as a former director of a Bermuda company named Marib Upstream Services Co., which the ICIJ says was \"created to conduct oil and gas operations\" in Yemen. Tillerson reportedly served on Marib's board for roughly a year, from 1997 to 1998.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The report also highlights two Democrats who are not currently in government. \u003ca href=\"https://offshoreleaks.icij.org/stories/penny-pritzker\">Former Commerce Secretary Penny Pritzker\u003c/a> is said to have transferred shares of two companies into a limited liability corporation that is referred to as being \"owned by trusts that are for the benefit of Penny Pritzker's children,\" the ICIJ says, citing Appleby documents. The move was made just after Pritzker was confirmed; the report says she later filed ethics paperwork in which the holdings were \"simply listed as having been sold.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In a shorter entry, former \u003ca href=\"https://offshoreleaks.cloud.icij.org/stories/wesley-k-clark\">presidential candidate Wesley Clark\u003c/a> is mentioned for his ties to Amaya, an online gaming company that is now called the Stars Group.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Paradise Papers are the fruit of a new branch of the work that brought \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-way/2016/04/04/472985787/heres-what-you-need-to-know-so-far-about-panama-papers\">the Panama Papers\u003c/a> to light in 2015 and 2016. Those leaked documents caused embarrassment among the elites in several countries, from the U.K. to Ukraine, and resulted in the prime ministers of Iceland and Pakistan leaving office.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The leaked Appleby records that are at the heart of the Paradise Papers detail more ties to the U.S. than to any other nation, according to the ICIJ.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"At least 31,000 of the individual and corporate clients included in Appleby's records are U.S. citizens or have U.S. addresses, more than from any other country,\" \u003ca href=\"https://www.icij.org/investigations/paradise-papers/about/\">the ICIJ said in a statement about the release\u003c/a>. \"Appleby also counted clients from the United Kingdom, China and Canada among its biggest sources of business.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.cbc.ca/news/business/stephen-bronfman-trudeau-paradise-papers-1.4382511\">The Canadian Broadcasting Corp. reports\u003c/a> that the names of more than 3,000 Canadian citizens, companies and other entities appear in the Paradise Papers, including three former prime ministers: Brian Mulroney, Jean Chrétien and Paul Martin.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Also mentioned is Stephen Bronfman, a key fundraiser for Prime Minister Justin Trudeau. Noting that Trudeau has mentioned tax fairness as a priority, the CBC says that Bronfman, a Seagram family heir, and his investment company, Claridge Inc., \"were key players linked to a $60 million U.S. offshore trust in the Cayman Islands that may have cost Canadians millions in unpaid taxes.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>More revelations seem likely to come from the Paradise Papers — so far, we're seeing only a sampling of the documents; the stories that were launched by dozens of collaborating media outlets on Sunday reflect only the highlights of the data. A member of the ICIJ's data team says the group will release \"the full structured data from the Paradise Papers investigation in the coming weeks.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As for the timeline described in the leaked documents, the ICIJ says the records date back to 1950 and run forward to 2016.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In response to the reports, Appleby released a statement saying in part, \"The journalists do not allege, nor could they, that Appleby has done anything unlawful. There is no wrongdoing. It is a patchwork quilt of unrelated allegations with a clear political agenda and movement against offshore.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The law firm added, \"We wish to reiterate that our firm was not the subject of a leak but of a serious criminal act. This was an illegal computer hack.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>News of offshore accounts and tax havens has been grabbing headlines since it broke on Sunday. But the ICIJ warns against assuming the guilt of anyone mentioned in its reporting. Noting that there are \"legitimate uses for offshore companies and trusts,\" the group says, \"we do not intend to suggest or imply that any people, companies or other entities included in the ICIJ Offshore Leaks Database have broken the law or otherwise acted improperly.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Multiple lawmakers wondered aloud why they were talking to \u003ca href=\"https://www.recode.net/2017/10/31/16562342/facebook-russia-congress-google-twitter-lawyers-ads\">the general counsels\u003c/a> for the companies, instead of the CEOs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I have more than a little bit of frustration that many of us on this committee have been raising this issue since the beginning of this year and our claims were frankly blown off by the leaderships of your companies,\" said the ranking Democrat on the committee, Sen. Mark Warner, D-Va. \"Candidly, your companies know more about Americans than the United States government does and the idea that you had no idea that any of this was happening strains my credibility.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Watch the Senate Intel Hearing\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>\u003c!-- iframe plugin v.4.3 wordpress.org/plugins/iframe/ -->\u003cbr>\n\u003ciframe width=\"800\" height=\"338\" src=\"https://www.npr.org/templates/event/embeddedVideo.php?storyId=560481387&mediaId=560483469\" frameborder=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\" class=\"iframe-class\">\u003c/iframe>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Big Tech lawyers said they were sympathetic, but would not completely commit on the record to \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/2017/10/19/558847414/what-you-need-to-know-about-the-honest-ads-act\">supporting legislation\u003c/a> that would regulate transparency for political ads on their platforms. They did say they agreed that more transparency is needed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>New numbers about the scope of Russian interference were also revealed: about 20 million Americans may have seen content pushed by Russian operatives on Instagram leading up to the 2016 election.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That was according to Facebook General Counsel Colin Stretch, who revealed earlier in the week that an additional 126 million users may have seen the Russia-promoted content on Facebook.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The intelligence committees in both the House and Senate are among the congressional panels investigating Russian interference in the 2016 election cycle and possible ties between the Trump campaign and Russian operatives. \u003c/p>\n\u003cdiv class=\"fullattribution\">Copyright 2017 NPR.

"content": "\u003cp>In July 2016, the aftermath of a police shooting of an African-American man was broadcast live on Facebook. Instantly, Americans of all stripes used the platform to step up the race wars and \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/sections/alltechconsidered/2016/07/14/486036166/in-wake-of-shootings-facebook-struggles-to-define-hate-speech\">attack each other\u003c/a>. Across the world, in India this past summer, a post of a cartoon of the Prophet Muhammad on Facebook \u003ca href=\"https://qz.com/1030653/west-bengal-violence-how-a-facebook-post-broke-the-decades-long-communal-peace-of-a-west-bengal-town/\">sparked mob violence\u003c/a> in which one person died.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And now, U.S. lawmakers are looking into Facebook's culpability after evidence that \u003ca href=\"https://newsroom.fb.com/news/2017/09/information-operations-update/\">Russia-linked operatives\u003c/a> placed ads on its platform during the 2016 presidential election in an effort to disrupt democracy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In whatever corner of the world Facebook is operating, it has become clear that people are using this powerful platform as a communications tool in ways that Mark Zuckerberg never envisioned. He started the company as a young Harvard undergrad 13 years ago to connect students. It expanded exponentially since then under his supremely techno-utopian vision of connecting the world.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[contextly_sidebar id=\"Vu9Q670eTzSGLHprbo6AuCD6wlKU6xB3\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For Zuckerberg, connecting the world means \u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/notes/mark-zuckerberg/bringing-the-world-closer-together/10154944663901634/\">bringing people together\u003c/a>. But increasingly the platform is being used by some very powerful elements to do the exact opposite: sow divisions. That's led Facebook struggling almost every week\u003cstrong> \u003c/strong>to offer explanations for misleading and divisive news on its platform.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It's a huge blind spot for Zuckerberg, by his own acknowledgement. Indeed, he is fast coming to terms with the power of his platform to cause harm.
