Jerry Brown in April. The findings could prove troublesome for Democrats in the Legislature running for re-election in 2018.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"If you're in a competitive district, it could become a campaign issue,\" said Mark DiCamillo, director of the IGS Poll.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billTextClient.xhtml?bill_id=201720180SB1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Senate Bill 1\u003c/a>, carried by Sen. Jim Beall (D-San Jose), will provide $52.4 billion in the next 10 years to fix highways and local roads and fund public transportation. To do that, it would raise the state's gas tax by 12 cents, and add up to $175 on annual vehicle registration fees. The measure barely passed the Legislature, receiving the exact amount of votes (27 in the Senate, 54 in the Assembly) required to achieve the needed two-thirds supermajority.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The potential sting on the pocketbooks of Californians is a likely explanation of why 39 percent of the polls' respondents said they \"strongly oppose\" the new law.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"That talks about the salience of the issue and the potential for the use of this in future elections,\" DiCamillo added.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A recall campaign focused on the gas tax hike has already begun in the 29th Senate District in Southern California. Republicans are targeting freshman Sen. Josh Newman (D-Fullerton), who voted for the bill. Filings with the Secretary of State's Office on Wednesday show that supporters of the Newman recall have \u003ca href=\"http://elections.cdn.sos.ca.gov/recalls/newman-recall-first-report.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">submitted nearly half \u003c/a>of the necessary signatures they'll need to collect by October to force a fall election.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The poll's regional trends could also spell trouble for swing district Assembly members Sabrina Cervantes (D-Corona), Sharon Quirk-Silva (D-Fullerton) and Al Muratsuchi (D-Torrance). All three voted for the gas tax increase and represent districts in Orange and Riverside counties.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The poll finds that opposition to the road repair plan is strongest in those two areas. Seventy-two percent of voters in the Inland Empire and 67 percent of voters on the South Coast voiced disapproval. The law is most popular in the San Francisco Bay Area, where 46 percent of voters still opposed it, compared to 45 percent in favor.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The massive transportation plan passed only after a full-court press by Gov.

Jerry Brown in April. The findings could prove troublesome for Democrats in the Legislature running for re-election in 2018.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"If you're in a competitive district, it could become a campaign issue,\" said Mark DiCamillo, director of the IGS Poll.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billTextClient.xhtml?bill_id=201720180SB1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Senate Bill 1\u003c/a>, carried by Sen. Jim Beall (D-San Jose), will provide $52.4 billion in the next 10 years to fix highways and local roads and fund public transportation. To do that, it would raise the state's gas tax by 12 cents, and add up to $175 on annual vehicle registration fees. The measure barely passed the Legislature, receiving the exact amount of votes (27 in the Senate, 54 in the Assembly) required to achieve the needed two-thirds supermajority.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The potential sting on the pocketbooks of Californians is a likely explanation of why 39 percent of the polls' respondents said they \"strongly oppose\" the new law.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Republicans are targeting freshman Sen. Josh Newman (D-Fullerton), who voted for the bill. Filings with the Secretary of State's Office on Wednesday show that supporters of the Newman recall have \u003ca href=\"http://elections.cdn.sos.ca.gov/recalls/newman-recall-first-report.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">submitted nearly half \u003c/a>of the necessary signatures they'll need to collect by October to force a fall election.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The poll's regional trends could also spell trouble for swing district Assembly members Sabrina Cervantes (D-Corona), Sharon Quirk-Silva (D-Fullerton) and Al Muratsuchi (D-Torrance). All three voted for the gas tax increase and represent districts in Orange and Riverside counties.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The poll finds that opposition to the road repair plan is strongest in those two areas. Seventy-two percent of voters in the Inland Empire and 67 percent of voters on the South Coast voiced disapproval.

But a shaking out of the industry doesn’t mean the demise of an industry. … That is why economists discuss these sort of shifts as ‘creative destruction.’ ”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Baby World isn’t the only business in Oakland that is struggling against new consumer behaviors.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“A couple stores in Oakland have signs up that say, ‘If you’re coming here to kick the tires, get measured, try stuff on, then buy it online, please don’t come in.

Retail occupancy rates are high. Oakland’s sales tax revenue actually grew 0.3 percent last year over 2015.

The city is gentrifying, and is right in the middle of a region that’s seeing a real economic boom, which means that people moving in have more money to spend on all kinds of retail.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Williams told me that Oakland has also focused less on building traditional shopping malls — which have really been struggling against online retail — and more on promoting its neighborhood shopping districts, like Rockridge. And those areas are doing particularly well. In commercial corridors in Oakland with an established business improvement district, sales tax revenue grew by 1.6 percent from 2015 to 2016.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Shoppers Speak Up\u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>We asked KQED readers on Facebook how online shopping has affected their communities and their own habits.

In the towns of Tracy and Patterson,\u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/2017/06/06/valley-farm-towns-transformed-by-your-online-shopping/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"> huge distribution centers have created thousands of jobs\u003c/a>, with more planned at an Amazon facility in Fresno. We’ve not only looked at the value of those jobs, but\u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/2017/06/07/warehouses-promise-jobs-but-what-happens-when-the-robots-come/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"> also at their future in automation\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>We also returned to Baby World to see how it feels inside a store that is literally watching its customers try out their products and then go outside and order the same stuff online. Then we went out to see how Oakland’s larger brick-and-mortar retail scene is facing this down.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At Baby World, Cristina Cabello told me that business had been hard for about a year and a half, as she watched consumer behavior change.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Finally, Amazon has trained them to do everything online, and the mentality of people changed,” Cabello said. “So we had people here on Saturday, spending time with us — 15 minutes on the car seats, the strollers … and then, at the same price everywhere else, and we offered the service. They would come to the door and order it online because it was going to be put at their doorstep the next day.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11500312\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\" style=\"max-width: 640px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-11500312\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/06/image1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/06/image1.jpg 640w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/06/image1-160x120.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/06/image1-240x180.jpg 240w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/06/image1-375x281.jpg 375w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/06/image1-520x390.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Baby World in Oakland before shuttering. \u003ccite>(Brian Watt/KQED)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>‘Creative Destruction’\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It’s not your imagination. There are a lot of stories like Baby World in the retail sector right now. That’s the assessment I heard from Chris Thornberg, economist and founder of Beacon Economics.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“There is some shaking out in the industry,” Thornberg said. “Typically, the weaker players are the ones that get diminished. But a shaking out of the industry doesn’t mean the demise of an industry. … That is why economists discuss these sort of shifts as ‘creative destruction.’ ”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Baby World isn’t the only business in Oakland that is struggling against new consumer behaviors.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“A couple stores in Oakland have signs up that say, ‘If you’re coming here to kick the tires, get measured, try stuff on, then buy it online, please don’t come in. That’s not the business we want,’ ” said Keira Williams, retail specialist with the Oakland Economic and Workforce Development Department.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Williams said that, overall, Oakland’s retail scene is thriving. Retail occupancy rates are high. Oakland’s sales tax revenue actually grew 0.3 percent last year over 2015. She said some stores are finding ways to compete.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11500313\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\" style=\"max-width: 640px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-11500313\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/06/IMG_7005.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/06/IMG_7005.jpg 640w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/06/IMG_7005-160x120.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/06/IMG_7005-240x180.jpg 240w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/06/IMG_7005-375x281.jpg 375w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/06/IMG_7005-520x390.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Baby World shut down after finding it could no longer compete with online retailers. \u003ccite>(Brian Watt/LQED)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>“You have to adapt. If you have a product that is easy to buy and often at a lower price online, you have to figure out what’s different at your store,” Williams said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There are, of course, larger forces that are helping some of Oakland’s retailers thrive. The city is gentrifying, and is right in the middle of a region that’s seeing a real economic boom, which means that people moving in have more money to spend on all kinds of retail.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Williams told me that Oakland has also focused less on building traditional shopping malls — which have really been struggling against online retail — and more on promoting its neighborhood shopping districts, like Rockridge. And those areas are doing particularly well. In commercial corridors in Oakland with an established business improvement district, sales tax revenue grew by 1.6 percent from 2015 to 2016.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Shoppers Speak Up\u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>We asked KQED readers on Facebook how online shopping has affected their communities and their own habits.

After about a year or two, we went in and saw they had a going out of business sign and I was shocked. Our neighborhood is dense and there are a lot of people with pets. I asked them why they weren’t able to stay open and the response was that too many people purchased their products online. \u003ci>— Meghan, Oakland\u003c/i>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I’m a knitter and I’ve seen a number of yarn stores go under due to competition from online. \u003ci>— Debbie, Alameda\u003c/i>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Our favorite bookstore [Kepler’s] was going to be forced to close by both higher rent and Amazon’s pervasive presence.

John Bauters — who was on the \u003ca href=\"http://www.bscc.ca.gov/downloads/Attachment%20K-1.%20Executive%20Steering%20Committee%20Roster.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">committee\u003c/a> that decided which communities should get the money, and works for \u003ca href=\"http://www.safeandjust.org/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">the organization that authored Proposition 47\u003c/a> — said the 18-member committee had a tough job, because all of the applications were strong.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The best part is that we got a very diverse array (of applicants) — so the thing in common was the diversity of it,\" he said. \"Although they all provided very similar services in a way, they did so differently and they were creative, locally tailored approaches to dealing with their own constituent groups.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ultimately, Bauters said, that's the biggest strength of the Proposition 47 grant program: The money is going to local groups that know what their community needs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Smart safety begins at the local level, and when you give local communities the tools they need and the resources they need to address problems in their community, you can really yield the best results,\" he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Rialto Mayor Deborah Robertson agreed. Rialto, in San Bernardino County, is getting just under $1 million to expand a program aimed at keeping teens out of trouble. She says it’s been a huge success and can now grow to include even more youths.\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"pullquote alignright\">California for the first time is creating a treatment and prevention infrastructure that millions of Californians have wanted and needed for generations.\u003ccite>John Bauters, committee member for Proposition 47 grant awards\u003c/cite>\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>\"Two Saturdays ago we had orientation kicking off our third year, and the room was packed,\" she said. \"It was packed from parents who were happy to still have their kids participate, and packed with newcomers that they had shared the success with, and what they saw were the benefits and positive, constructive activities for the summer. And they had invited their friends.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Proposition 47 has been controversial in some quarters, with many law enforcement leaders blaming the ballot measure for an increase in property crimes in California. The ballot measure not only reduced many drug possessions to misdemeanors but also raised the threshold for felony theft to $950.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Perry Brents, Rialto's community services director, who took the lead on the city's Proposition 47 grant, said he thinks the disbursement of funds to crime prevention programs could quiet some of those critics.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Nobody is seeing the results of Prop. 47 like the city of Rialto, and it makes it hard to understand if you don't see the results,\" he said. \"In this case we have hard evidence of the effects of how it's working for us. ... I don't think you can be opposed if you see results.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Robertson also praised the grant program for rewarding smaller cities alongside large urban centers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Bauters agreed, saying he was particularly impressed with some of the smaller applications, including Corning's and one from the Oceanside Unified School District aimed at reaching more juveniles and young adults in the criminal justice system with a wide range of crime prevention and rehabilitation programs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Bauters and other backers of Proposition 47 hope the program will grow in future years. They believe\u003ca href=\"http://www.latimes.com/opinion/editorials/la-ed-proposition-47-savings-20160518-snap-story.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"> the savings to the state from the ballot measure are even bigger \u003c/a>than the $103 million over three years calculated by the governor's office. Proposition 47 gave the governor the power to decide that amount, however.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Still, Bauters said the grants from the Board of State and Community Corrections are historic, noting it's the first time that money previously spent on incarcerating criminals will go toward crime prevention.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We've had an increase in corrections spending and prisons in particular. Since 1981, there's been an increase of 1500 percent,\" he said. \"Thanks to the savings from Prop. 47, California for the first time is creating a treatment and prevention infrastructure that millions of Californians have wanted and needed for generations ... this was a reprioritization of how Californians wish to see money spent.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He hopes applicants who didn’t win the grants this time around will reapply in 2020.\u003c/p>\n\n",

Rialto, in San Bernardino County, is getting just under $1 million to expand a program aimed at keeping teens out of trouble. She says it’s been a huge success and can now grow to include even more youths.\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"pullquote alignright\">California for the first time is creating a treatment and prevention infrastructure that millions of Californians have wanted and needed for generations.\u003ccite>John Bauters, committee member for Proposition 47 grant awards\u003c/cite>\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>\"Two Saturdays ago we had orientation kicking off our third year, and the room was packed,\" she said. \"It was packed from parents who were happy to still have their kids participate, and packed with newcomers that they had shared the success with, and what they saw were the benefits and positive, constructive activities for the summer. And they had invited their friends.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Proposition 47 has been controversial in some quarters, with many law enforcement leaders blaming the ballot measure for an increase in property crimes in California. The ballot measure not only reduced many drug possessions to misdemeanors but also raised the threshold for felony theft to $950.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Perry Brents, Rialto's community services director, who took the lead on the city's Proposition 47 grant, said he thinks the disbursement of funds to crime prevention programs could quiet some of those critics.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Nobody is seeing the results of Prop. 47 like the city of Rialto, and it makes it hard to understand if you don't see the results,\" he said. \"In this case we have hard evidence of the effects of how it's working for us. ... I don't think you can be opposed if you see results.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Robertson also praised the grant program for rewarding smaller cities alongside large urban centers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Bauters agreed, saying he was particularly impressed with some of the smaller applications, including Corning's and one from the Oceanside Unified School District aimed at reaching more juveniles and young adults in the criminal justice system with a wide range of crime prevention and rehabilitation programs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Bauters and other backers of Proposition 47 hope the program will grow in future years. They believe\u003ca href=\"http://www.latimes.com/opinion/editorials/la-ed-proposition-47-savings-20160518-snap-story.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"> the savings to the state from the ballot measure are even bigger \u003c/a>than the $103 million over three years calculated by the governor's office. Proposition 47 gave the governor the power to decide that amount, however.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Still, Bauters said the grants from the Board of State and Community Corrections are historic, noting it's the first time that money previously spent on incarcerating criminals will go toward crime prevention.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We've had an increase in corrections spending and prisons in particular. Since 1981, there's been an increase of 1500 percent,\" he said. \"Thanks to the savings from Prop. 47, California for the first time is creating a treatment and prevention infrastructure that millions of Californians have wanted and needed for generations ... this was a reprioritization of how Californians wish to see money spent.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He hopes applicants who didn’t win the grants this time around will reapply in 2020.\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",

The president initially pointed to Comey's handling of the Hillary Clinton email investigation as the impetus, but later conceded it was because of his handling of the Russia investigation and claimed Comey was overseeing a demoralized FBI in disarray.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[contextly_sidebar id=\"8FOfNiKdaQpgGR2c9oqyqcawSaOKhIPU\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"So it confused me when I saw on television the president saying he actually fired me because of the Russia investigation and learned again from the media that he was telling, privately, other parties that my firing had relieved 'great pressure' on the Russia investigation,\" Comey said, referring to reporting on Trump's conversation with Russian officials in the Oval Office the day after the dismissal.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The administration then chose to defame me, and more importantly the FBI,\" Comey said, by claiming the agency was \"poorly led.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[contextly_sidebar id=\"GpuYsOu3i6Sn9U3TvrSrxwaS0vMqWqex\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Those were lies, plain and simple,\" Comey bluntly told the committee.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>White House Deputy Press Secretary Sarah Sanders later pushed back on Comey's assertions, telling reporters that \"I can definitely say the president is not a liar and I think it's frankly insulting\" that the question was asked.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Awkward \"loyalty\" dinners and Oval Office pressure\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Comey's highly anticipated testimony followed the release by the committee of his written statement on Wednesday, which ticked off in rich detail the extent to which Trump pressed him about the Russia investigation. Comey wrote that Trump did ask him for a \"loyalty\" pledge during a one-on-one dinner and later told Comey in a solo Oval Office meeting that he \" hope[d] you can let ... go\" of the Flynn investigation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The president has denied both those accusations. But Comey's testimony so far has only confirmed the many bombshell reports over the past few weeks about the private conversations he had with Trump, many of them unprecedented and possibly inappropriate.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[contextly_sidebar id=\"PkoHy1Kkpj064rWEcKCF6HbqqxahfpGv\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Comey told the committee that he did see Trump's request for loyalty from him -- an independent arbiter atop the FBI -- as a sort of quid pro quo.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"My common sense told me what's going on here is he's looking to get something in exchange for granting my request to stay in the job,\" Comey said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He also said that in a now-infamous photo just days after Trump's inauguration in which the president shook his hand and embraced him, Trump whispered in his ear, \"'I really look forward to working with you.'\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On Trump's Feb. 14 private conversation with Comey in the Oval Office — the day after Flynn was asked to resign for misleading Vice President Mike Pence over his conversations with the Russian ambassador during the transition — Comey said that he believed the president was indeed directing him to scuttle the investigation into Flynn.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I took it as a direction,\" which he didn't follow, Comey said. \"I took it as, this is what he wants me to do.\" Comey also added that, at that time, Flynn was indeed in \"legal jeopardy\" over his ties and contacts with the Russians.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He noted that Attorney General Jeff Sessions tried to linger in on that meeting, and he said that it was his \"sense\" that Sessions \"knew he shouldn't be leaving.\" According to Comey's written testimony, he later told Sessions he didn't want to be left alone with Trump again. Comey said during questioning that he was \"stunned\" by that conversation and the president asking everyone else to leave, and later said it was a \"significant fact\" to him as a prosecutor that Trump wanted to speak with him alone.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[contextly_sidebar id=\"2Au7mMGeCTSauaMwV8Ad0l35XTxeIrie\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Comey did testify that he didn't believe Trump was asking Comey to stop the broader Russia investigation being conducted by the FBI, but that while his conversation with Trump was \"disturbing,\" he didn't \"think it's for me to say that the conversation I had with the president was an effort to obstruct.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Obstruction of justice? Up to special counsel Mueller to \"sort that out\" \u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Later asked by Sen. Joe Manchin, D-W.Va., whether Trump's interactions with him over Flynn rose to the level of obstruction of justice, Comey responded that was newly appointed special counsel Robert Mueller's \"job to sort that out.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Comey said he had indeed seen Trump's tweet last month suggesting that the president had \"tapes\" of their conversations — and that if those did exist, they would corroborate his testimony.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Lordy, I hope there are tapes,\" he told senators.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[contextly_sidebar id=\"yQFz2d9XQ7ctJqIpAA3jwWrRdUodKB8X\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And, Comey revealed that it was Trump's tweet about those alleged \"tapes\" that prompted him to call up a friend to leak the memos about his conversations with the president to the press last month in hopes it would lead to the appointment of a special counsel to oversee the Russia investigation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Republicans have already seized on one section of Comey's written testimony as vindication.

I need to remember every word that is spoken,\" he said of the numerous memos he wrote immediately after his encounters with the president.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\"Shifting explanations\" for Comey's firing \u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The former FBI director also harshly pushed back on Trump's changing explanations for why he had been let go, saying he was \"confused\" and \"increasingly concerned\" about the \"shifting explanations\" Trump gave. The president initially pointed to Comey's handling of the Hillary Clinton email investigation as the impetus, but later conceded it was because of his handling of the Russia investigation and claimed Comey was overseeing a demoralized FBI in disarray.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"So it confused me when I saw on television the president saying he actually fired me because of the Russia investigation and learned again from the media that he was telling, privately, other parties that my firing had relieved 'great pressure' on the Russia investigation,\" Comey said, referring to reporting on Trump's conversation with Russian officials in the Oval Office the day after the dismissal.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The administration then chose to defame me, and more importantly the FBI,\" Comey said, by claiming the agency was \"poorly led.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Those were lies, plain and simple,\" Comey bluntly told the committee.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>White House Deputy Press Secretary Sarah Sanders later pushed back on Comey's assertions, telling reporters that \"I can definitely say the president is not a liar and I think it's frankly insulting\" that the question was asked.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Awkward \"loyalty\" dinners and Oval Office pressure\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Comey's highly anticipated testimony followed the release by the committee of his written statement on Wednesday, which ticked off in rich detail the extent to which Trump pressed him about the Russia investigation. Comey wrote that Trump did ask him for a \"loyalty\" pledge during a one-on-one dinner and later told Comey in a solo Oval Office meeting that he \" hope[d] you can let ... go\" of the Flynn investigation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The president has denied both those accusations. But Comey's testimony so far has only confirmed the many bombshell reports over the past few weeks about the private conversations he had with Trump, many of them unprecedented and possibly inappropriate.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Comey told the committee that he did see Trump's request for loyalty from him -- an independent arbiter atop the FBI -- as a sort of quid pro quo.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"My common sense told me what's going on here is he's looking to get something in exchange for granting my request to stay in the job,\" Comey said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He also said that in a now-infamous photo just days after Trump's inauguration in which the president shook his hand and embraced him, Trump whispered in his ear, \"'I really look forward to working with you.'\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On Trump's Feb. 14 private conversation with Comey in the Oval Office — the day after Flynn was asked to resign for misleading Vice President Mike Pence over his conversations with the Russian ambassador during the transition — Comey said that he believed the president was indeed directing him to scuttle the investigation into Flynn.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I took it as a direction,\" which he didn't follow, Comey said. \"I took it as, this is what he wants me to do.\" Comey also added that, at that time, Flynn was indeed in \"legal jeopardy\" over his ties and contacts with the Russians.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He noted that Attorney General Jeff Sessions tried to linger in on that meeting, and he said that it was his \"sense\" that Sessions \"knew he shouldn't be leaving.\" According to Comey's written testimony, he later told Sessions he didn't want to be left alone with Trump again. Comey said during questioning that he was \"stunned\" by that conversation and the president asking everyone else to leave, and later said it was a \"significant fact\" to him as a prosecutor that Trump wanted to speak with him alone.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Comey did testify that he didn't believe Trump was asking Comey to stop the broader Russia investigation being conducted by the FBI, but that while his conversation with Trump was \"disturbing,\" he didn't \"think it's for me to say that the conversation I had with the president was an effort to obstruct.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Obstruction of justice? Up to special counsel Mueller to \"sort that out\" \u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Later asked by Sen. Joe Manchin, D-W.Va., whether Trump's interactions with him over Flynn rose to the level of obstruction of justice, Comey responded that was newly appointed special counsel Robert Mueller's \"job to sort that out.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Comey said he had indeed seen Trump's tweet last month suggesting that the president had \"tapes\" of their conversations — and that if those did exist, they would corroborate his testimony.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Lordy, I hope there are tapes,\" he told senators.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And, Comey revealed that it was Trump's tweet about those alleged \"tapes\" that prompted him to call up a friend to leak the memos about his conversations with the president to the press last month in hopes it would lead to the appointment of a special counsel to oversee the Russia investigation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Republicans have already seized on one section of Comey's written testimony as vindication. The former FBI director does detail in his written submission to the committee how he told Trump on three separate occasions that he himself was not under investigation -- a surprising assertion Trump put in his termination letter to Comey.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Comey told the committee that deliberations with senior FBI leadership about whether to tell the president he was not personally under investigation, beginning in January before he was inaugurated, were not unanimous.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"One of the members of the leadership team had a view that although it was technically true, we did not have a counterintelligence file case open on then-President-elect Trump, his concern was that because we're looking at the potential -- again that's the subject of the investigation -- coordination between the campaign and Russia, because it was President Trump -- President-elect Trump's campaign, this person's view was inevitably his behavior, his conduct will fall within the scope of that work.

"content": "\u003cp>California Sens. Dianne Feinstein and Kamala Harris managed to claim some of the most entertaining moments of Thursday’s must-watch James Comey testimony, but Feinstein was far more effective at getting the former FBI director to answer key questions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That may be in part because Harris, a freshman senator, was among the final committee members to question Comey, fired in May by President Trump. Feinstein, the ranking Democratic member on the Senate Intelligence Committee, was just fourth in line.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Still, both women’s remarks, and Comey’s answers to them, set Twitter ablaze — first when the former FBI director told Feinstein, “Lordy, I hope there are tapes,” and then later, when Harris’ questions about Attorney General Jeff Sessions’ reaction to a conversation with him prompted Comey to mimic a shrug.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://twitter.com/SteveKopack/status/872851814504386565\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>California was one of two states (Maine is the other) with both of its senators on the committee, which heard nearly three hours of testimony from Comey in public session before retreating behind closed doors.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While most of the back-and-forths were dead serious, Comey got several laughs and a lot of reaction over some of his remarks, including when he said he’s not “Captain Courageous,” when he admitted he would have preferred to spend Valentine’s Day with his wife rather than having dinner with Trump, and when he compared leaking his memo to the press to “feeding seagulls at the beach.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11500069\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-11500069\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/06/GettyImages-693805666-800x533.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/06/GettyImages-693805666-800x533.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/06/GettyImages-693805666-160x107.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/06/GettyImages-693805666-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/06/GettyImages-693805666-1920x1280.jpg 1920w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/06/GettyImages-693805666-1180x787.jpg 1180w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/06/GettyImages-693805666-960x640.jpg 960w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/06/GettyImages-693805666-240x160.jpg 240w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/06/GettyImages-693805666-375x250.jpg 375w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/06/GettyImages-693805666-520x347.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Sen. Kamala Harris questions former FBI Director James Comey. \u003ccite>(Chip Somodevilla/Getty Images)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Both California senators sought to push back on a narrative driven by their GOP colleagues: that Trump’s comments to Comey were not aimed at pressuring the FBI director to drop the investigation into former National Security Adviser Michael Flynn’s contact with Russian officials.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In written testimony submitted ahead of time to the committee, Comey wrote that the president said, “I hope you can see your way clear to letting this go, to letting Flynn go. He is a good guy. I hope you can let this go.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Harris jumped on that statement in her opening remarks:\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“You and I are both former prosecutors and I am not going to require you to answer this,” Harris said. “But in my experience in prosecuting cases, when a robber held a gun to somebody’s head and said, ‘I hope you give me your wallet,’ the word hope was not the operative word at that moment.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[contextly_sidebar id=”FrPYqx3d3cs48if6shpjOdaNvGTgBPMJ”]Feinstein pressed Comey on that statement, asking him to go into more detail about his impression that the remarks were aimed at pushing him to drop the investigation of Flynn — a conversation Comey called inappropriate. Then she asked Comey why he didn’t push back in the moment:\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Feinstein:\u003c/strong> Now, here’s the question. You’re big, you’re strong. I know the Oval Office and I know what happens to people when they walk in. There is a certain amount of intimidation, but why didn’t you stop and say, “Mr. President, this is wrong. I cannot discuss this with you.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Comey:\u003c/strong> It’s a great question. Maybe if I were stronger I would have. I was so stunned by the conversation that I just took it in, and the only thing I could think to say, because I was playing in my mind cause I can remember every word he said, because I was playing in my mind what should my response be? And that’s why I very carefully chose the words. Look, I’ve seen the tweet about tapes. Lordy, I hope there are tapes. I remember saying, “I agree he’s a good guy,” as a way of saying I’m not agreeing with what you just asked me to do. Again, maybe other people would be stronger in that circumstance but that’s how I conducted myself. I hope I’ll never have another opportunity. Maybe if I did it again, I would do it better.\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>Comey’s line about the tapes — “Lordy, I hope there are tapes” — was immediately seized on by observers as one of the hearing’s folksy moments and because it was the first time he’s publicly mentioned Trump’s tweet:\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/863007411132649473\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Harris later tried to probe deeper into the issue of potential connections between the Trump administration and Russia, asking him a series of questions that Comey declined to answer in open session. They included the now-famous Sessions shrug.\u003c/p>\n\n",

Kamala Harris questions former FBI Director James Comey. \u003ccite>(Chip Somodevilla/Getty Images)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Both California senators sought to push back on a narrative driven by their GOP colleagues: that Trump’s comments to Comey were not aimed at pressuring the FBI director to drop the investigation into former National Security Adviser Michael Flynn’s contact with Russian officials.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In written testimony submitted ahead of time to the committee, Comey wrote that the president said, “I hope you can see your way clear to letting this go, to letting Flynn go. He is a good guy. I hope you can let this go.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Harris jumped on that statement in her opening remarks:\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“You and I are both former prosecutors and I am not going to require you to answer this,” Harris said. “But in my experience in prosecuting cases, when a robber held a gun to somebody’s head and said, ‘I hope you give me your wallet,’ the word hope was not the operative word at that moment.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>Feinstein pressed Comey on that statement, asking him to go into more detail about his impression that the remarks were aimed at pushing him to drop the investigation of Flynn — a conversation Comey called inappropriate. Then she asked Comey why he didn’t push back in the moment:\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Feinstein:\u003c/strong> Now, here’s the question. You’re big, you’re strong. I know the Oval Office and I know what happens to people when they walk in. There is a certain amount of intimidation, but why didn’t you stop and say, “Mr. President, this is wrong. I cannot discuss this with you.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Comey:\u003c/strong> It’s a great question. Maybe if I were stronger I would have. I was so stunned by the conversation that I just took it in, and the only thing I could think to say, because I was playing in my mind cause I can remember every word he said, because I was playing in my mind what should my response be? And that’s why I very carefully chose the words. Look, I’ve seen the tweet about tapes. Lordy, I hope there are tapes. I remember saying, “I agree he’s a good guy,” as a way of saying I’m not agreeing with what you just asked me to do. Again, maybe other people would be stronger in that circumstance but that’s how I conducted myself. I hope I’ll never have another opportunity. Maybe if I did it again, I would do it better.\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>Comey’s line about the tapes — “Lordy, I hope there are tapes” — was immediately seized on by observers as one of the hearing’s folksy moments and because it was the first time he’s publicly mentioned Trump’s tweet:\u003c/p>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Lots of acreage was planted in barley and hay, too. The grain crops were vulnerable to being \"lodged,\" or beaten down, in the downpours that swept the state. New-mown hay was liable to rot in the fields.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>San Francisco's Daily Alta California reported bad news from farm districts throughout the state.

The present outlook is very gloomy for the farmers.\" The Napa Valley's hay crop was said to be close to a total loss.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Sacramento Union reported the late rain had ruined the season's cherry harvest.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But the Union said Sacramento County was a bright spot amid the state's dismal farmlands, with corn and alfalfa and other crops doing well after the rains. And the county had good news for breweries, too.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The hop men are highly elated over the prospect of an abundant crop and the assured fact of excellent prices,\" the Union said, estimating the counties' crop of hops would total 3.6 million pounds and bring growers nearly three-quarters of a million dollars.\u003c/p>\n\n",

The city's downtown gauge measured 2.57 inches that month.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Then as now, the local media had an outsize interest in what seems like relatively mild atmospheric events. But whereas today the main focus of weather reporting is on travel impacts, the rain's effect on the state's crops got most of the attention in 1884.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Wheat was California's biggest crop in the 1880s. Lots of acreage was planted in barley and hay, too. The grain crops were vulnerable to being \"lodged,\" or beaten down, in the downpours that swept the state. New-mown hay was liable to rot in the fields.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>San Francisco's Daily Alta California reported bad news from farm districts throughout the state. A correspondent in Merced, in the San Joaquin Valley, wrote \"the wheat fields are indeed a woful [sic] looking scene to look upon.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>From Oroville came news \"that hundreds of tons of hay is rotting in the fields, and thousands of acres of the harvest grain lies flat and cannot be harvested. The present outlook is very gloomy for the farmers.\" The Napa Valley's hay crop was said to be close to a total loss.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Sacramento Union reported the late rain had ruined the season's cherry harvest.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But the Union said Sacramento County was a bright spot amid the state's dismal farmlands, with corn and alfalfa and other crops doing well after the rains. And the county had good news for breweries, too.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The hop men are highly elated over the prospect of an abundant crop and the assured fact of excellent prices,\" the Union said, estimating the counties' crop of hops would total 3.6 million pounds and bring growers nearly three-quarters of a million dollars.\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",
