He spent about two weeks at Sunrise Hospital & Medical Center before being transferred to a rehab center for people with spinal cord injuries. Fowler’s mom, Patricia, was also at the festival and said she fears how expensive his medical care may be. But she said, “Whatever expenses come down the road, we’ll handle it somehow.” ",

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

It will also spend 30 percent of its media buy on Spanish-language ads. But in terms of the creative message, California is on the defensive.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Even if they're hearing you know the Affordable Care Act is going away, we're saying ‘No, no, not yet, not yet,' ” said Lizelda Lopez, who helps direct Latino outreach for Covered California as the agency’s deputy director of communications. “We're still here.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That’s the mantra for this year, she said: “We are open for business. We are here. Financial assistance is still available. Open enrollment is Nov. 1 to Jan. 31. We are here.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Such simple messages may work for people who already bought coverage in previous years and just need to renew their plan, said Carlos Santiago, chief strategist at \u003ca href=\"http://santiagosolutionsgroup.com/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Santiago Solutions Group\u003c/a>, a research consulting firm. But they could be too simple for new customers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“To convince someone that was uninsured to get it for the first time? Obviously that message is not going to work,” Santiago said. “Especially not this year.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Plus, the belief that illness won’t happen to you -- Santiago said this is especially entrenched in Latino culture.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Latinos are extremely, extremely positive and overly optimistic,” he said, one reason Latinos have higher rates of going uninsured.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We don't need to worry so much about today. Things will be OK,” he said. “And obviously when it comes to insurance, that's not exactly what it's all about.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On that front, Covered California has some more dramatic ads featuring ambulances and overturned bicycles, or a scene of a \u003ca href=\"https://vimeopro.com/coveredcanews/instant-tv/video/239171245\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">ladder falling backward\u003c/a>. It also plans to push a series of videos on social media. Its market research shows Latina women are very active video sharers, Lopez said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Mi nombre es Guadalupe,” says a young woman in\u003ca href=\"https://player.vimeo.com/video/215252751/?autoplay=1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"> one video\u003c/a>, as she shows pictures from her wedding day and talks about suddenly finding out she needed a heart transplant.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Without her health plan from Covered California, she said she never would have been able to afford the cost of surgery: $1.5 million.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This kind of personal story, which other Latinas can relate to, is good, Santiago said. But Latinos don’t respond to fear, he added, so if the message is too scary, it could backfire.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s a tug of war,” said Christopher Graves. “That trade-off is, people stop taking action. They basically become paralyzed by how overwhelming it is. There needs to be a balance.”\u003c/p>\n\n",

But Latinos don’t respond to fear, he added, so if the message is too scary, it could backfire.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s a tug of war,” said Christopher Graves. “That trade-off is, people stop taking action.

A cultural anthropologist who teaches at Cal State Fullerton, she’s also one of the state’s foremost experts on the practice of Chinese “bone scraping.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Crowder says the bones are believed to harness powerful energy. “Every Chinese wants to be buried together with their ancestors, so that all the combined energy from these bones will help to fortify the family and bring good fortune.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Even the lowliest laborer would contract — or his family association would contract for him — bone scraping in the event of his death. While it was common for many fortune hunters to presume their stay in California would be temporary, the Chinese had strong reasons to doubt they could set down roots.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Anti-Chinese sentiment was rife in 19th century America, peaking in 1882 with the federal establishment of the Chinese Exclusion Act, suspending all immigration of Chinese laborers. The Chinese Exclusion Act was the first law implemented to prevent a specific ethnic group from immigrating to the United States. It would not be repealed until 1943.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11626923\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-11626923\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/10/RS27804_Chong-You-1894-qut-800x727.jpg\" alt=\"Richard Yue's ancestors came to California seeking a better life.

A cultural anthropologist who teaches at Cal State Fullerton, she’s also one of the state’s foremost experts on the practice of Chinese “bone scraping.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Crowder says the bones are believed to harness powerful energy. “Every Chinese wants to be buried together with their ancestors, so that all the combined energy from these bones will help to fortify the family and bring good fortune.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Even the lowliest laborer would contract — or his family association would contract for him — bone scraping in the event of his death. While it was common for many fortune hunters to presume their stay in California would be temporary, the Chinese had strong reasons to doubt they could set down roots.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Anti-Chinese sentiment was rife in 19th century America, peaking in 1882 with the federal establishment of the Chinese Exclusion Act, suspending all immigration of Chinese laborers. The Chinese Exclusion Act was the first law implemented to prevent a specific ethnic group from immigrating to the United States. It would not be repealed until 1943.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11626923\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-11626923\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/10/RS27804_Chong-You-1894-qut-800x727.jpg\" alt=\"Richard Yue's ancestors came to California seeking a better life.

"content": "\u003cp>\u003cem>Updated Thursday, Nov. 2, 2017 at 2 p.m. \u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>California Highway Patrol records show that a water tanker involved in a fatal crash during the North Bay fires earlier this month was briefly taken off the road last year because of maintenance concerns.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Garrett Paiz was driving a 24-year-old Kenworth water tanker down a steep grade Oct. 16 when the truck overturned. Paiz, a Southern California native who lived in Noel, Missouri, died in the crash on Oakville Grade, just east of Highway 29 and northwest of Yountville.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>CHP documents show that a June 2016 safety inspection of the vehicle at an agency facility in Shasta County found five violations. One of the violations was considered serious enough that the Highway Patrol ordered the vehicle out of service until the problem was corrected.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That violation involved excessive wear on a universal joint, or U-joint, on the vehicle's rear driveshaft. A U-joint is a coupling that allows a vehicle's axle to move up and down while maintaining connection with the driveshaft.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The inspection also found a front U-joint with less wear -- not serious enough to remove the truck from service. Other violations involved a brake that was found to be out of adjustment, oil or grease leaking from the hub of an inner wheel, and worn front mainsprings.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The CHP did not issue any citations in connection with the violations. Five days later, the Highway Patrol records show, the problems had been corrected and the truck's owner, Tehama Transport of Red Bluff, was allowed to put the truck back into service. The June 2016 inspection appears to have been the last formal examination the vehicle received.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>'Everything Looked to Be in Compliance'\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Everything looked to be in compliance on that vehicle,\" said Officer Hector Baiza with the CHP Golden Gate Division's commercial operations unit in an interview.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Baiza and experts who have reviewed the vehicle's inspection records say the kind of violations noted on the water truck are normal, and that the reports do not raise concerns about the safety of the vehicle.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Highway Patrol inspected the water truck five times in the last nine years. Aside from the June 6, 2016, inspection that found several violations, the only other violation flagged on the vehicle was during an inspection in March 2010.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Tehama Transport is one of scores of companies that supply water tenders and bulldozers under contract to help Cal Fire battle wildfires.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Days after the crash, state workplace regulators launched an \u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/2017/10/20/state-investigating-employer-of-driver-killed-fighting-north-bay-wildfires/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">investigation\u003c/a> into the company after learning that it was not providing its employees with workers' compensation insurance.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Cal Fire has hired the company 56 times in the last four years, records show. Nine of those assignments were for work associated with the blazes during the October Fire Siege, the extreme wildfire behavior that has devastated the North Bay and other parts of the state.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Between 2008 and this month, the CHP cited Tehama Transport vehicles a total of 14 times for a variety of infractions and equipment issues, including overweight vehicles, brake and light problems, and out-of date registrations. In 2015 the CHP gave the company a \"satisfactory\" rating.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Tehama Transport could not be reached for comment on the vehicle safety records or past CHP citations.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Crash Factors Under Examination\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The CHP, and not Cal Fire, is investigating the fatal crash. Investigators are trying to determine if speed or fatigue contributed to the incident, according to Baiza.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The CHP measured skid marks on the road to determine how fast the truck was going, and it's trying to find out how many hours Paiz had been working before the crash.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Investigators are also looking into whether smoke during the wildfire impaired Paiz's vision. The crash took place in the hour before sunrise, so it was dark at the time.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Cal Fire requires its private contractors who operate heavy equipment like water tenders and bulldozers to undergo safety training.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Paiz took volunteer firefighter training courses administered by Cal Fire and the Riverside County Fire Department in 2000 and 2001, but that did not include sessions focused on operating heavy equipment.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Cal Fire has reached out to fire officials in Missouri to determine if Paiz had sufficient training to operate a water tender.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Brandon Barrett, the chief of the Noel Fire Department, where Paiz was employed in the last year, said Paiz received heavy equipment training at his agency. Paiz also reportedly co-owned a company called Native Express Trucking.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Around 25 percent of all firefighter fatalities occur during traffic crashes, according to the U.S. Forest Administration. The agency says it's the second-leading cause of firefighter deaths, next to cardiovascular ailments.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A \u003ca href=\"https://www.usfa.fema.gov/downloads/pdf/publications/fa-248.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">USFA report\u003c/a> that reviewed 38 fatal water-tanker crashes between 1990 and 2001 noted that all of those who died were \"volunteer\" firefighters, many of whom were found not to be wearing seat belts.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The CHP has not said whether Paiz was wearing a seat belt at the time of the crash. However, agency investigators do not believe Paiz would have survived the crash even if had been wearing a seat belt, according to CHP Sgt. Ed Clarke.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The vehicle rolled over and eventually landed on the roof of the cab, Clarke said. The cab was crushed and Paiz was not ejected from the truck, Clarke said Tuesday.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Meantime, Paiz's friends and family are mourning his death.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Paiz was laid to rest last Friday. During a \u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b5zhaERtuVc&feature=youtu.be\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">funeral ceremony\u003c/a> at Destiny's Church in Indio, the Riverside County town where he was born, he was remembered as a man who gave his life to service and was loved by many.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Scores of firefighters, including some from Noel, Missouri, where Paiz worked as a volunteer, attended the ceremony. Rep. Raul Ruiz, D-La Quinta, who grew up with the Paiz family, was one of the local leaders in attendance.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Garrett ... never woke up in the morning to go to work for himself. He always went to work for somebody else,\" the Rev. Obed Martinez, the pastor of Destiny's Church, said during the service.\u003c/p>\n\n",

Paiz, a Southern California native who lived in Noel, Missouri, died in the crash on Oakville Grade, just east of Highway 29 and northwest of Yountville.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>CHP documents show that a June 2016 safety inspection of the vehicle at an agency facility in Shasta County found five violations. One of the violations was considered serious enough that the Highway Patrol ordered the vehicle out of service until the problem was corrected.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That violation involved excessive wear on a universal joint, or U-joint, on the vehicle's rear driveshaft. A U-joint is a coupling that allows a vehicle's axle to move up and down while maintaining connection with the driveshaft.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Other violations involved a brake that was found to be out of adjustment, oil or grease leaking from the hub of an inner wheel, and worn front mainsprings.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The CHP did not issue any citations in connection with the violations. Five days later, the Highway Patrol records show, the problems had been corrected and the truck's owner, Tehama Transport of Red Bluff, was allowed to put the truck back into service. The June 2016 inspection appears to have been the last formal examination the vehicle received.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>'Everything Looked to Be in Compliance'\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Everything looked to be in compliance on that vehicle,\" said Officer Hector Baiza with the CHP Golden Gate Division's commercial operations unit in an interview.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Baiza and experts who have reviewed the vehicle's inspection records say the kind of violations noted on the water truck are normal, and that the reports do not raise concerns about the safety of the vehicle.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Highway Patrol inspected the water truck five times in the last nine years. Aside from the June 6, 2016, inspection that found several violations, the only other violation flagged on the vehicle was during an inspection in March 2010.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Tehama Transport is one of scores of companies that supply water tenders and bulldozers under contract to help Cal Fire battle wildfires.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Days after the crash, state workplace regulators launched an \u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/2017/10/20/state-investigating-employer-of-driver-killed-fighting-north-bay-wildfires/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">investigation\u003c/a> into the company after learning that it was not providing its employees with workers' compensation insurance.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Cal Fire has hired the company 56 times in the last four years, records show. Nine of those assignments were for work associated with the blazes during the October Fire Siege, the extreme wildfire behavior that has devastated the North Bay and other parts of the state.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Between 2008 and this month, the CHP cited Tehama Transport vehicles a total of 14 times for a variety of infractions and equipment issues, including overweight vehicles, brake and light problems, and out-of date registrations. In 2015 the CHP gave the company a \"satisfactory\" rating.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Tehama Transport could not be reached for comment on the vehicle safety records or past CHP citations.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Crash Factors Under Examination\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The CHP, and not Cal Fire, is investigating the fatal crash. Investigators are trying to determine if speed or fatigue contributed to the incident, according to Baiza.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The CHP measured skid marks on the road to determine how fast the truck was going, and it's trying to find out how many hours Paiz had been working before the crash.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Investigators are also looking into whether smoke during the wildfire impaired Paiz's vision. The crash took place in the hour before sunrise, so it was dark at the time.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Cal Fire requires its private contractors who operate heavy equipment like water tenders and bulldozers to undergo safety training.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Paiz took volunteer firefighter training courses administered by Cal Fire and the Riverside County Fire Department in 2000 and 2001, but that did not include sessions focused on operating heavy equipment.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Cal Fire has reached out to fire officials in Missouri to determine if Paiz had sufficient training to operate a water tender.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Brandon Barrett, the chief of the Noel Fire Department, where Paiz was employed in the last year, said Paiz received heavy equipment training at his agency. Paiz also reportedly co-owned a company called Native Express Trucking.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Around 25 percent of all firefighter fatalities occur during traffic crashes, according to the U.S. Forest Administration. The agency says it's the second-leading cause of firefighter deaths, next to cardiovascular ailments.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A \u003ca href=\"https://www.usfa.fema.gov/downloads/pdf/publications/fa-248.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">USFA report\u003c/a> that reviewed 38 fatal water-tanker crashes between 1990 and 2001 noted that all of those who died were \"volunteer\" firefighters, many of whom were found not to be wearing seat belts.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The CHP has not said whether Paiz was wearing a seat belt at the time of the crash. However, agency investigators do not believe Paiz would have survived the crash even if had been wearing a seat belt, according to CHP Sgt. Ed Clarke.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The vehicle rolled over and eventually landed on the roof of the cab, Clarke said. The cab was crushed and Paiz was not ejected from the truck, Clarke said Tuesday.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Meantime, Paiz's friends and family are mourning his death.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Paiz was laid to rest last Friday. During a \u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b5zhaERtuVc&feature=youtu.be\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">funeral ceremony\u003c/a> at Destiny's Church in Indio, the Riverside County town where he was born, he was remembered as a man who gave his life to service and was loved by many.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Scores of firefighters, including some from Noel, Missouri, where Paiz worked as a volunteer, attended the ceremony. Rep. Raul Ruiz, D-La Quinta, who grew up with the Paiz family, was one of the local leaders in attendance.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Garrett ... never woke up in the morning to go to work for himself. He always went to work for somebody else,\" the Rev. Obed Martinez, the pastor of Destiny's Church, said during the service.\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",

Fowler, 41, knew he’d been hit in the ankle and couldn’t run. He hid under the stage until the gunfire ended.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp class=\"p1\">“I knew my foot was completely useless,” said Fowler, a firefighter from Lake Havasu City, Ariz., and a father of three. He underwent surgery, spent nearly two weeks in the hospital and still may need another operation. He also will need rehabilitation and follow-up visits with a specialist.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp class=\"p1\">Fowler has a Blue Cross Blue Shield PPO through his job, but he said he doesn’t know how much he will have to pay out of his own pocket for the care he is receiving. In an era of higher deductibles and limited choice of in-network doctors, however, he knows he could face significant medical bills.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp class=\"p1\">His insurance card says his individual deductible is $5,000 and his coinsurance 20 percent.

Over the next weeks and months, she will need multiple operations and a slew of specialists, including neurosurgeons, plastic surgeons, occupational therapists and mental health counselors.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_361803\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" style=\"max-width: 770px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-361803\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/stateofhealth/wp-content/uploads/sites/27/2017/10/gofundme_screenshot-photo-KHN.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"770\" height=\"513\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/27/2017/10/gofundme_screenshot-photo-KHN.jpg 770w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/27/2017/10/gofundme_screenshot-photo-KHN-160x107.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/27/2017/10/gofundme_screenshot-photo-KHN-768x512.jpg 768w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/27/2017/10/gofundme_screenshot-photo-KHN-240x160.jpg 240w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/27/2017/10/gofundme_screenshot-photo-KHN-375x250.jpg 375w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/27/2017/10/gofundme_screenshot-photo-KHN-520x346.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 770px) 100vw, 770px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">A screenshot from a GoFundMe page set up for Tina Frost, who was shot at the country music festival in Las Vegas.

Manafort and Gates pleaded not guilty in federal court Monday to all the charges announced earlier Monday, NPR's Barbara Sprunt reports. The two men were deemed a flight risk and put under house arrest. Both told the court they have a difficult time \"assessing their assets at this point.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[contextly_sidebar id=\"aE2LHRTYJWqjXHl7gtEDAAaMOfuoboDV\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But the Papadopoulos matter speaks to the heart of the mandate for Justice Department special counsel Robert Mueller — to examine potential connections between people in the Trump campaign and Russian influence-mongers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>What is now known is that Russia tried to infiltrate the Trump campaign — and did so successfully, at least at some level. Put in context of other reporting around the Russia story, it is a remarkable establishment.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The court documents also establish that Russia promised \"thousands of emails\" that would have \"dirt\" on Hillary Clinton to Papadopoulos in April 2016. A trove of hacked Democratic emails was released by WikiLeaks three months later — in the midst of the Democratic National Convention.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I will tell you this, Russia: If you're listening, I hope you're able to find the 30,000 emails that are missing,\" Trump said, appearing to encourage Russia to continue digging. His campaign denied he was doing that. \"I think you will probably be rewarded mightily by our press.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Papadopoulos tried to set up additional meetings or contacts between people in the Trump campaign and Russians. There were many contacts, according to the court documents, which describe meetings or messages between Papadopoulos and at least two Russians, a \"professor\" in London and a woman.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But what remains unknown is who are the high-ranking campaign officials Papadopoulos contacted and what did those other officials do, if anything, with information Papadopoulos shared?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It is known, however, that Donald Trump Jr., the son of the billionaire, organized and took a meeting with Russian nationals, who also promised dirt on Clinton.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"If it's what you say,\" Trump Jr. wrote to the associate who set up the meeting, \"I love it.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Manafort and Jared Kushner, Trump's son-in-law and a key adviser, also attended the meeting at Trump Tower in June 2016.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This is the first time a connection between the Trump campaign and Russia's attempt to interfere in the 2016 election has been established by an ironclad official government source. Reporting that has linked the Trump campaign and Russia's effort has been dismissed by the White House and the president as \"fake news.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Shortly after the charges against Manafort and Gates were announced, President Trump dismissed their significance.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/925005659569041409\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/925006418989715456\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Papadopoulos' guilty plea is going to be more difficult for him to downplay, although the White House tried to do so on Monday.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Today's announcement has nothing to do with the president or the campaign or campaign activity,\" White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders said at a White House press briefing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Of course, that is not true. Trump named Papadopoulos as a foreign-policy adviser to the campaign. Sanders, however, dismissed him merely a \"volunteer member of an advisory council that met one time.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sanders tried to pivot to the Clinton campaign instead, alleging it \"colluded\" with Russian intelligence to craft the so-called \"Steele Dossier.\" The dossier, which collected opposition research on Trump that eventually focused on his ties to Russia, was initially paid for by the conservative Washington Free Beacon website. The site \u003ca href=\"https://www.nytimes.com/2017/10/27/us/politics/trump-dossier-paul-singer.html\">is funded in large part \u003c/a>by conservative donor Paul Singer, who was a Trump skeptic and backer of Florida Republican Sen. Marco Rubio for president.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Research for the dossier was conducted by a firm called Fusion GPS, run by two former investigative reporters. They hired Chris Steele, a former British spy turned private investigator. He has ties to U.S. intelligence and is known as a Russia expert. As a specialist, they hired him to find more information about Trump's ties in Russia that they couldn't get.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When the primaries were over, the Clinton campaign and the Democratic National Committee picked up the tab to keep the research going.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sanders called the dossier as \"false information.\" Some of it has been confirmed by some news outlets. Some of it is incendiary and has not been independently confirmed. Sanders dismissed the meeting at Trump Tower between Trump Jr. and Russian nationals as simply \"a meeting that took place\" and \"routine.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It was not routine. Opposition research is, but not seeking it from foreign governments.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sanders, though, contended the Clinton campaign's and DNC's \"millions of dollars\" paid for the oppo-research file (that it never used) was far worse that Trump Jr.'s meeting — or anything coming out of Monday's court documents.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"They took one meeting, and nothing came of it,\" she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sanders also said the president had \"no reaction,\" because \"it doesn't have anything to do with us.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Not the end of the Mueller investigation\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There could be more details to come either from Mueller or the congressional committees that are investigating the Russia imbroglio. Court documents indicate that Papadopoulos has met with the government \"on numerous occasions to provide information and answer questions.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sen. Mark Warner of Virginia, the top Democrat on the Senate Intelligence Committee, which is also investigating Russia-Trump ties, called Monday's developments in a statement \"a significant and sobering step in what will be a complex and likely lengthy investigation by the Special Counsel. That is why it is imperative that Congress take action now to protect the independence of the Special Counsel, wherever or however high his investigation may lead.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>His office also said he wants bipartisan members of Congress to \"make clear\" to President Trump \"that issuing pardons to any of his associates or to himself would be unacceptable, and result in immediate, bipartisan action by Congress.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The president has the unfettered ability to pardon anyone from federal crimes. But that only applies to \u003cem>federal \u003c/em>crimes. Some officials, including Manafort, could also face charges at the state level — in New York, for example.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Warner also put the guilty plea and indictments in the context of broader developments on the Trump-Russia investigation over the last several months.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"This is just the latest in a series of undisclosed contacts, misleading public statements, potentially compromising information, and highly questionable actions from the time of the Trump campaign that together, remain a cause for deep concern and continued investigation,\" he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And there are indications that Papadopoulos is cooperating with federal agents.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"It is in the best interest of our client, George Papadopoulos, that we refrain from commenting on George's case,\" his lawyers, Thomas M. Breen and Robert W. Stanley, said in a short statement obtained by NPR's Carrie Johnson.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>They then added: \"We will have the opportunity to comment on George's involvement when called upon by the Court at a later date. We look forward to telling all of the details of George's story at that time.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Trump and other conservatives have tried to sully Mueller's name, hoping to delegitimize his findings as politically motivated. One Mueller ally, fired former FBI Director James Comey, took to his newly revealed Twitter account to seemingly — and cryptically — back up the special counsel:\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://twitter.com/FormerBu/status/925070993692987394\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>The charges\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Manafort and Gates, were charged with \"conspiracy against the United States,\" \"conspiracy to launder money\" and other offenses. The two were expected in court in Washington by the afternoon.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Justice Department indictment on Manafort and Gates contains 12 counts: \"conspiracy against the United States, conspiracy to launder money, unregistered agent of a foreign principal, false and misleading FARA statements, false statements, and seven counts of failure to file reports of foreign bank and financial accounts.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Papadopoulos\u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-way/2017/10/30/560816481/trumps-former-foreign-policy-advisor-pleads-guilty-to-lying-to-the-fbi\"> pleaded guilty to making false statements\u003c/a> to the FBI.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Manafort and Gates indictment unsealed on Monday morning does not make any reference to Russia's influence campaign against the presidential election, but it does allege extensive financial ties between Manafort and Gates and powerful Ukrainians.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Papadopoulos materials, on the other hand, detail the many contacts investigators say he had with Russian-linked operatives. He met at least two people, a man and a woman, who the FBI says were working for the Russian government and had boasted to him about the help it could offer the Trump campaign against Clinton.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Manafort and Gates \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-way/2017/10/30/560782357/paul-manafort-is-reportedly-told-to-surrender-to-federal-agents\">turned themselves in to the FBI\u003c/a> on Monday morning. Papadopoulos' status was unclear.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Manafort appeared at the FBI's Washington field office just after 8 a.m. with his lawyer, Kevin Downing. Manafort was escorted into the building by an FBI agent.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Appearing after his client's plea, however, Downing sounded like his client and the Trump campaign were one and the same.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Well, I think you all saw today that President Donald Trump was correct — there is no evidence that Mr. Manafort or the Trump campaign colluded with the Russian government,\" Downing said outside federal court, per NPR's Miles Parks.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He contended that Manafort was merely representing \"pro-European Union campaigns for the Ukrainian--.\" He added that \"he was seeking to further democracy and to help the Ukraine come closer to the United States and the EU.\" He then pointed out that his client's work in Ukraine ended in 2014 \"over two years before Mr. Manafort served in the Trump campaign.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He said the indictment was being brought \"using a very novel theory,\" regarding a federal filing under the Foreign Agents Registration Act. He noted that FARA has only been used half a dozen times in the last 50 years and with only one conviction. He's right that the act is seldom-used.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Downing then thundered, \"The second thing about this indictment that I myself find most ridiculous is the claim that maintaining offshore accounts to bring all your funds into the United States as a scheme to conceal from the United States government is ridiculous.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A spokesman for the special counsel declined to comment to NPR.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[contextly_sidebar id=\"yCv1Q6F0dBXv40CZSzEFwLnIOIrqrjQk\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The materials \u003ca href=\"https://www.justice.gov/sco\">are online here\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Papadopoulos court documents \u003ca href=\"https://apps.npr.org/documents/document.html?id=4163471-George-Papadopoulos-Documents\">are available here\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>The Ukraine connection\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Manafort headed Trump's campaign from June to August of 2016. He stepped down after reports emerged about his business relationship with pro-Russian leaders in Ukraine, allegedly replete with millions of dollars in cash payments and undisclosed lobbying efforts.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The indictment released on Monday charges Manafort and Gates with the extensive use of offshore bank accounts, through which flowed more than $75 million. The document alleges that Manafort laundered more than $18 million of that to conceal it from U.S. authorities and Gates transferred more than $3 million.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Manafort grew wealthy over a colorful career in his four decades as a Republican operative and lobbyist.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He worked for Republican campaigns in the late 1970s and early 1980s before moving into the lucrative world of international lobbying, where he teamed up with Roger Stone to found the firm Black, Manafort, Stone & Kelly.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Manafort represented a host of unsavory characters over the years, including Angolan rebel leader Jonas Savimbi, Philippines President Ferdinand Marcos and Zaire's leader Mobutu Sese Seko.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the early 2000s, Manafort headed to Ukraine to work as an adviser to the pro-Russian politician Viktor Yanukovych, helping him win the presidency in 2010. Yanukovych was overthrown by a wave of popular protests four years later. He fled to Russia.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Manafort later became an early backer of Trump, eventually assuming the role of chairman of his insurgent presidential campaign. Trump and the White House have lately downplayed the role that Manafort played in the 2016 operation. But at the time, their relationship was said to be close.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Manafort is \"the one person in the room that calls him 'Donald,' \" as Republican operative Scott Reed \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/2016/07/16/486085582/meet-paul-manafort-the-washington-insider-running-trumps-campaign\">told NPR last year\u003c/a>. \"It's not 'Mr. Trump.' It's 'Donald.' 'Come on, Donald; we've got to do the right thing here.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A spokesman for Manafort did not respond to a request for comment.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://apps.npr.org/documents/document.html?id=4163376-Manafort-Gates-Indictment-Filed-and-Redacted\">Read the full Manafort indictment here\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://apps.npr.org/documents/document.html?id=4163471-George-Papadopoulos-Documents\">Read the court documents related to Papadopoulos here\u003c/a>. \u003c/p>\n\u003cdiv class=\"fullattribution\">Copyright 2017 NPR.

Trump named Papadopoulos as a foreign-policy adviser to the campaign. Sanders, however, dismissed him merely a \"volunteer member of an advisory council that met one time.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sanders tried to pivot to the Clinton campaign instead, alleging it \"colluded\" with Russian intelligence to craft the so-called \"Steele Dossier.\" The dossier, which collected opposition research on Trump that eventually focused on his ties to Russia, was initially paid for by the conservative Washington Free Beacon website. The site \u003ca href=\"https://www.nytimes.com/2017/10/27/us/politics/trump-dossier-paul-singer.html\">is funded in large part \u003c/a>by conservative donor Paul Singer, who was a Trump skeptic and backer of Florida Republican Sen. Marco Rubio for president.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Research for the dossier was conducted by a firm called Fusion GPS, run by two former investigative reporters. They hired Chris Steele, a former British spy turned private investigator. He has ties to U.S. intelligence and is known as a Russia expert. As a specialist, they hired him to find more information about Trump's ties in Russia that they couldn't get.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When the primaries were over, the Clinton campaign and the Democratic National Committee picked up the tab to keep the research going.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sanders called the dossier as \"false information.\" Some of it has been confirmed by some news outlets. Some of it is incendiary and has not been independently confirmed. Sanders dismissed the meeting at Trump Tower between Trump Jr. and Russian nationals as simply \"a meeting that took place\" and \"routine.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It was not routine. Opposition research is, but not seeking it from foreign governments.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sanders, though, contended the Clinton campaign's and DNC's \"millions of dollars\" paid for the oppo-research file (that it never used) was far worse that Trump Jr.'s meeting — or anything coming out of Monday's court documents.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"They took one meeting, and nothing came of it,\" she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sanders also said the president had \"no reaction,\" because \"it doesn't have anything to do with us.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Not the end of the Mueller investigation\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There could be more details to come either from Mueller or the congressional committees that are investigating the Russia imbroglio. Court documents indicate that Papadopoulos has met with the government \"on numerous occasions to provide information and answer questions.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sen. Mark Warner of Virginia, the top Democrat on the Senate Intelligence Committee, which is also investigating Russia-Trump ties, called Monday's developments in a statement \"a significant and sobering step in what will be a complex and likely lengthy investigation by the Special Counsel. That is why it is imperative that Congress take action now to protect the independence of the Special Counsel, wherever or however high his investigation may lead.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>His office also said he wants bipartisan members of Congress to \"make clear\" to President Trump \"that issuing pardons to any of his associates or to himself would be unacceptable, and result in immediate, bipartisan action by Congress.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The president has the unfettered ability to pardon anyone from federal crimes. But that only applies to \u003cem>federal \u003c/em>crimes. Some officials, including Manafort, could also face charges at the state level — in New York, for example.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Warner also put the guilty plea and indictments in the context of broader developments on the Trump-Russia investigation over the last several months.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"This is just the latest in a series of undisclosed contacts, misleading public statements, potentially compromising information, and highly questionable actions from the time of the Trump campaign that together, remain a cause for deep concern and continued investigation,\" he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And there are indications that Papadopoulos is cooperating with federal agents.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"It is in the best interest of our client, George Papadopoulos, that we refrain from commenting on George's case,\" his lawyers, Thomas M. Breen and Robert W. Stanley, said in a short statement obtained by NPR's Carrie Johnson.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>They then added: \"We will have the opportunity to comment on George's involvement when called upon by the Court at a later date. We look forward to telling all of the details of George's story at that time.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Trump and other conservatives have tried to sully Mueller's name, hoping to delegitimize his findings as politically motivated.

The document alleges that Manafort laundered more than $18 million of that to conceal it from U.S. authorities and Gates transferred more than $3 million.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Manafort grew wealthy over a colorful career in his four decades as a Republican operative and lobbyist.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He worked for Republican campaigns in the late 1970s and early 1980s before moving into the lucrative world of international lobbying, where he teamed up with Roger Stone to found the firm Black, Manafort, Stone & Kelly.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Manafort represented a host of unsavory characters over the years, including Angolan rebel leader Jonas Savimbi, Philippines President Ferdinand Marcos and Zaire's leader Mobutu Sese Seko.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the early 2000s, Manafort headed to Ukraine to work as an adviser to the pro-Russian politician Viktor Yanukovych, helping him win the presidency in 2010.

Judge Colleen Kollar-Kotelly granted a preliminary injunction to keep the policy from going into effect while the court case moves forward.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As a result of her injunction, the military policy on transgender service members will \"revert to the status quo,\" Kollar-Kotelly writes — that is, \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-way/2016/06/30/484192442/pentagon-says-transgender-troops-can-now-serve-openly\">the policy that was in place\u003c/a> before Trump's announcement. That policy allowed trans members currently in the military to serve openly, and for openly trans people to be admitted to serve in the future.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Kollar-Kotelly did not block the portion of the presidential memorandum that blocked military resources from being used to fund \"sex reassignment surgical procedures,\" saying her court does not have jurisdiction over that policy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Before 2016, service members who came out as trans were \"caught in limbo,\" as NPR has \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-way/2016/06/30/484192442/pentagon-says-transgender-troops-can-now-serve-openly\">previously reported\u003c/a>. They weren't eligible for promotion, and were treated according to their gender assigned at birth. Troops who came out as trans could be discharged purely on the basis of their gender identity. Aspiring soldiers who were openly trans were considered unfit for duty.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[contextly_sidebar id=\"afiaLYWGFXakoUOoXCnKxgi1yXnTAkmj\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In June 2016, after lengthy deliberation, the Pentagon announced a policy change. \"Effective immediately, transgender Americans may serve openly,\" then-Secretary of Defense Ash Carter said. And within a year, he said, the military would no longer turn away recruits on the basis of trans identity. (The deadline was later extended by six months.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Then, this July, Trump \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-way/2017/07/26/539470211/trump-says-transgender-people-cant-serve-in-military\">tweeted\u003c/a> that \"the United States Government will not accept or allow transgender individuals to serve in any capacity in the U.S. Military,\" an announcement that caught many people (including leaders at the Defense Department) \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/2017/07/27/539559582/5-unanswered-questions-about-trumps-ban-on-transgender-troops\">by surprise\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The tweet was followed by an official \u003ca href=\"https://www.whitehouse.gov/the-press-office/2017/08/25/presidential-memorandum-secretary-defense-and-secretary-homeland\">presidential memo\u003c/a> in August. The memo called for trans members of the military to, once again, be eligible for discharge based on their gender identity, and for would-be service members who are openly trans to be prohibited from joining the military, effective on Jan. 1, 2018.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The memo did not go as far as Trump's tweets. For instance, whether or not individuals currently serving \u003cem>would \u003c/em>be discharged, among other elements of implementing the ban, would be up to Secretary of Defense Jim Mattis, according to the memo. Any steps taken should be \"appropriate and consistent with military effectiveness and lethality, budgetary constraints and applicable law,\" the instructions stated.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[contextly_sidebar id=\"0OAdV6xJ7hfhPyVKbrm32s9Q4ugW2YFF\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Under the new preliminary injunction, this portion of the memo is unenforceable and the Pentagon policy is once again in effect. That means, unless the policy changes again, openly trans people could begin joining the military on Jan. 1.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The lawsuit against the Trump administration was initially filed by five anonymous service members, \"Jane Doe\" 1-5, from different branches, with decades of collective service and multiple overseas deployments between them. The \"Jane Doe\" plaintiffs were later joined by a \"John Doe.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Two named plaintiffs, one at the Naval Academy and another in the Army ROTC, also joined the lawsuit as aspiring service members who, as openly transgender individuals, would be blocked from their career path by the president's memorandum.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The judge ruled that the plaintiffs have persuasive claims that their Fifth Amendment rights are being violated, and have a good chance of succeeding in their court case. She noted, among other things, that the president's policy was announced with little apparent deliberation, \"disfavors a class of historically persecuted and politically powerless individuals\" and contradicts the conclusions of military leaders.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She also wrote \"the reasons given for [the directives] do not appear to be supported by any facts\" — for instance, there is \"practically no explanation at all\" about how trans service members would harm \"unit cohesion,\" she wrote.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The memo released by the president also prohibits the military from spending any resources on surgeries related to a service member's gender transition. Covering transition-related health needs was one of the policy changes the Pentagon announced in 2016.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Kollar-Kotelly said she could not issue a preliminary injunction on that element of the memo, because none of the plaintiffs in this case had proven that they would personally be harmed by that clause.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Human Rights Campaign called the injunction \"an important step in the ongoing efforts to protect transgender service members.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This case is not the only challenge to Trump's trans service member ban. The ACLU has a separate challenge pending in Maryland, on behalf of several named active service members.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"As all of these cases move forward, we will continue to work to ensure that transgender service members are treated with the equal treatment they deserve,\"ACLU senior staff attorney Joshua Block said in a statement. \u003c/p>\n\u003cdiv class=\"fullattribution\">Copyright 2017 NPR.

That policy allowed trans members currently in the military to serve openly, and for openly trans people to be admitted to serve in the future.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Kollar-Kotelly did not block the portion of the presidential memorandum that blocked military resources from being used to fund \"sex reassignment surgical procedures,\" saying her court does not have jurisdiction over that policy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

"content": "\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Before 2016, service members who came out as trans were \"caught in limbo,\" as NPR has \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-way/2016/06/30/484192442/pentagon-says-transgender-troops-can-now-serve-openly\">previously reported\u003c/a>. They weren't eligible for promotion, and were treated according to their gender assigned at birth. Troops who came out as trans could be discharged purely on the basis of their gender identity. Aspiring soldiers who were openly trans were considered unfit for duty.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In June 2016, after lengthy deliberation, the Pentagon announced a policy change. \"Effective immediately, transgender Americans may serve openly,\" then-Secretary of Defense Ash Carter said. And within a year, he said, the military would no longer turn away recruits on the basis of trans identity. (The deadline was later extended by six months.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Then, this July, Trump \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-way/2017/07/26/539470211/trump-says-transgender-people-cant-serve-in-military\">tweeted\u003c/a> that \"the United States Government will not accept or allow transgender individuals to serve in any capacity in the U.S. Military,\" an announcement that caught many people (including leaders at the Defense Department) \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/2017/07/27/539559582/5-unanswered-questions-about-trumps-ban-on-transgender-troops\">by surprise\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The tweet was followed by an official \u003ca href=\"https://www.whitehouse.gov/the-press-office/2017/08/25/presidential-memorandum-secretary-defense-and-secretary-homeland\">presidential memo\u003c/a> in August. The memo called for trans members of the military to, once again, be eligible for discharge based on their gender identity, and for would-be service members who are openly trans to be prohibited from joining the military, effective on Jan. 1, 2018.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The memo did not go as far as Trump's tweets. For instance, whether or not individuals currently serving \u003cem>would \u003c/em>be discharged, among other elements of implementing the ban, would be up to Secretary of Defense Jim Mattis, according to the memo. Any steps taken should be \"appropriate and consistent with military effectiveness and lethality, budgetary constraints and applicable law,\" the instructions stated.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Under the new preliminary injunction, this portion of the memo is unenforceable and the Pentagon policy is once again in effect. That means, unless the policy changes again, openly trans people could begin joining the military on Jan. 1.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The lawsuit against the Trump administration was initially filed by five anonymous service members, \"Jane Doe\" 1-5, from different branches, with decades of collective service and multiple overseas deployments between them. The \"Jane Doe\" plaintiffs were later joined by a \"John Doe.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Two named plaintiffs, one at the Naval Academy and another in the Army ROTC, also joined the lawsuit as aspiring service members who, as openly transgender individuals, would be blocked from their career path by the president's memorandum.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The judge ruled that the plaintiffs have persuasive claims that their Fifth Amendment rights are being violated, and have a good chance of succeeding in their court case. She noted, among other things, that the president's policy was announced with little apparent deliberation, \"disfavors a class of historically persecuted and politically powerless individuals\" and contradicts the conclusions of military leaders.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She also wrote \"the reasons given for [the directives] do not appear to be supported by any facts\" — for instance, there is \"practically no explanation at all\" about how trans service members would harm \"unit cohesion,\" she wrote.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The memo released by the president also prohibits the military from spending any resources on surgeries related to a service member's gender transition. Covering transition-related health needs was one of the policy changes the Pentagon announced in 2016.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Kollar-Kotelly said she could not issue a preliminary injunction on that element of the memo, because none of the plaintiffs in this case had proven that they would personally be harmed by that clause.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Human Rights Campaign called the injunction \"an important step in the ongoing efforts to protect transgender service members.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This case is not the only challenge to Trump's trans service member ban. The ACLU has a separate challenge pending in Maryland, on behalf of several named active service members.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"As all of these cases move forward, we will continue to work to ensure that transgender service members are treated with the equal treatment they deserve,\"ACLU senior staff attorney Joshua Block said in a statement. \u003c/p>\n\u003cdiv class=\"fullattribution\">Copyright 2017 NPR.

This \u003ca href=\"http://www.indivisibleoc.org/ed-royce-ca-39/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">chapter of Indivisible\u003c/a> was organized by Marian Bodnar, a former Cal State Long Beach music teacher.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I was livid, surprised, shocked, depressed,” Bodnar said. “Everything about having Trump elected” upset her.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Bodnar thinks Royce flies below the radar — his nice-guy persona masking what she sees as a record that’s out of step in a district where 63 percent of residents are either Latino or Asian.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For example, Royce opposed the Dream Act to help immigrants brought to the U.S. illegally as children. He also gets an “A” grade from the National Rifle Association and a “0%” rating from Planned Parenthood. Bodnar thinks the key to defeating Royce will be voter education.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I think what we need to do is overcome people’s lack of knowledge about who Ed Royce is,” Bodnar said. “And I think most people don’t pay attention to who their representative is.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But how big a chore will Democrats have in getting voters to focus on Royce or his challengers?

Asked who her representative was, another voter who wanted to give only her first name, Grace, guessed, “Is that Kamala Harris? I don’t know,” before bursting into laughter.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Asked how much she follows politics, Denell Giustorobello from Anaheim said, “none, none whatsoever,” adding that she likes to keep it that way because there’s so much acrimony these days.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But she said she is registered to vote. “Oh yes, I vote!” she said. “Is it a good vote?

He’s been in Congress since 1993, and Democrat Sideri acknowledged she has voted for him in the past.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But now she and others here tonight are mobilizing to defeat Royce. This \u003ca href=\"http://www.indivisibleoc.org/ed-royce-ca-39/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">chapter of Indivisible\u003c/a> was organized by Marian Bodnar, a former Cal State Long Beach music teacher.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I was livid, surprised, shocked, depressed,” Bodnar said. “Everything about having Trump elected” upset her.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Bodnar thinks Royce flies below the radar — his nice-guy persona masking what she sees as a record that’s out of step in a district where 63 percent of residents are either Latino or Asian.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For example, Royce opposed the Dream Act to help immigrants brought to the U.S. illegally as children. He also gets an “A” grade from the National Rifle Association and a “0%” rating from Planned Parenthood. Bodnar thinks the key to defeating Royce will be voter education.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I think what we need to do is overcome people’s lack of knowledge about who Ed Royce is,” Bodnar said. “And I think most people don’t pay attention to who their representative is.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But how big a chore will Democrats have in getting voters to focus on Royce or his challengers? A visit to the Fullerton public market suggests they have their work cut out for them.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On a warm weekday evening, families were enjoying music, kids were playing and parents were chatting among themselves. Not surprisingly, politics was not top of mind for most folks, including Sara Gearhart.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For starters, I asked if she knows who her Congress member is.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I don’t, not off the top of my head,” she said, adding that, “if you said his name, I’d say, ‘Oh yeah, I know who that is.'”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Reminded that it’s Ed Royce, she said, “Yes, I do know that!” Saying she knows very little about him, she said she voted for him.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She’s hardly alone. Asked who her representative was, another voter who wanted to give only her first name, Grace, guessed, “Is that Kamala Harris? I don’t know,” before bursting into laughter.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Asked how much she follows politics, Denell Giustorobello from Anaheim said, “none, none whatsoever,” adding that she likes to keep it that way because there’s so much acrimony these days.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But she said she is registered to vote. “Oh yes, I vote!” she said. “Is it a good vote? I don’t know — but I do vote.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Interrupted from talking to a friend, Susan Rodriguez said she doesn’t bother to vote.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s not something I want to do lately,” Rodriguez said, “because I don’t like none of the options around.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Democrats will have plenty of options this time around. Five Democrats, including one who has loaned his campaign $2 million, have announced they’re running against Rep. Royce. There are rumors others might jump in.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Republicans are bracing for the onslaught. And they have a strategy of their own, centered around the Legislature’s recent increase in the gas tax. They’ve targeted freshman Sen. Josh Newman (D-Fullerton) for a recall based on his vote for \u003ca href=\"https://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billNavClient.xhtml?bill_id=201720180SB1\">SB 1,\u003c/a> the transportation bill that will add 12 cents to the cost of a gallon of gas starting Nov. 1.

The Mexican holiday, which honors and remembers the dead, was originally celebrated in the summer, but after a few hundred years and some mixing of Spanish Catholicism, it now takes place in the fall. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This year, the holiday falls on Oct. 31 and Nov. 1.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the Bay Area, community Day of the Dead celebrations are becoming more popular including the annual Dia de los Muertos Festival in Oakland, which is put on by the Unity Council. Organizers say the outdoor festival regularly attracts more than 60,000 people to downtown Fruitvale. This year's festival -- held on Sunday, Oct. 29 -- was the 22nd and included traditional Aztec dancing, live music, more than 100 Latin American vendors and 30 altars designed by local artists.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A large part of Dia de los Muertos includes building altars, or \u003cem>ofrendas\u003c/em>, to loved ones who have died. They’re filled with items that are thought to help guide spirits back home like attractive and fragrant yellow and orange marigolds. Copal and salvia incense is also often burned.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And of course, favorite foods of the dead, like avocados and apples, are laid out along with brightly colored sugar skulls, calaveras figurines, candles and photos of the deceased fill out the rest of traditional altars.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11626710\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/10/Image-uploaded-from-iOS-26.jpg\">\u003cimg src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/10/Image-uploaded-from-iOS-26-800x600.jpg\" alt='Lilia Olson entitled her altar \"Memories.\" ' width=\"800\" height=\"600\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-11626710\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/10/Image-uploaded-from-iOS-26-800x600.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/10/Image-uploaded-from-iOS-26-160x120.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/10/Image-uploaded-from-iOS-26-1020x765.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/10/Image-uploaded-from-iOS-26-1920x1440.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/10/Image-uploaded-from-iOS-26-1180x885.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/10/Image-uploaded-from-iOS-26-960x720.jpg 960w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/10/Image-uploaded-from-iOS-26-240x180.jpg 240w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/10/Image-uploaded-from-iOS-26-375x281.jpg 375w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/10/Image-uploaded-from-iOS-26-520x390.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003c/a>\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Artist Lilia Olson entitled her altar \"Memories.\" It is filled with photos, calaveras and other items important to her loved ones. \u003ccite>(Tiffany Camhi/KQED)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11626727\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/10/RS27801_Image-uploaded-from-iOS-5-qut.jpg\">\u003cimg class=\"size-medium wp-image-11626727\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/10/RS27801_Image-uploaded-from-iOS-5-qut-800x600.jpg\" alt=\"Artist Gonzalo Hildago included a reference to DACA -- or Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals -- on his altar.

The Mexican holiday, which honors and remembers the dead, was originally celebrated in the summer, but after a few hundred years and some mixing of Spanish Catholicism, it now takes place in the fall. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This year, the holiday falls on Oct. 31 and Nov. 1.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the Bay Area, community Day of the Dead celebrations are becoming more popular including the annual Dia de los Muertos Festival in Oakland, which is put on by the Unity Council. Organizers say the outdoor festival regularly attracts more than 60,000 people to downtown Fruitvale. This year's festival -- held on Sunday, Oct. 29 -- was the 22nd and included traditional Aztec dancing, live music, more than 100 Latin American vendors and 30 altars designed by local artists.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A large part of Dia de los Muertos includes building altars, or \u003cem>ofrendas\u003c/em>, to loved ones who have died. They’re filled with items that are thought to help guide spirits back home like attractive and fragrant yellow and orange marigolds. Copal and salvia incense is also often burned.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And of course, favorite foods of the dead, like avocados and apples, are laid out along with brightly colored sugar skulls, calaveras figurines, candles and photos of the deceased fill out the rest of traditional altars.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11626710\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/10/Image-uploaded-from-iOS-26.jpg\">\u003cimg src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/10/Image-uploaded-from-iOS-26-800x600.jpg\" alt='Lilia Olson entitled her altar \"Memories.\" ' width=\"800\" height=\"600\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-11626710\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/10/Image-uploaded-from-iOS-26-800x600.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/10/Image-uploaded-from-iOS-26-160x120.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/10/Image-uploaded-from-iOS-26-1020x765.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/10/Image-uploaded-from-iOS-26-1920x1440.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/10/Image-uploaded-from-iOS-26-1180x885.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/10/Image-uploaded-from-iOS-26-960x720.jpg 960w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/10/Image-uploaded-from-iOS-26-240x180.jpg 240w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/10/Image-uploaded-from-iOS-26-375x281.jpg 375w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/10/Image-uploaded-from-iOS-26-520x390.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003c/a>\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Artist Lilia Olson entitled her altar \"Memories.\" It is filled with photos, calaveras and other items important to her loved ones. \u003ccite>(Tiffany Camhi/KQED)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11626727\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/10/RS27801_Image-uploaded-from-iOS-5-qut.jpg\">\u003cimg class=\"size-medium wp-image-11626727\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/10/RS27801_Image-uploaded-from-iOS-5-qut-800x600.jpg\" alt=\"Artist Gonzalo Hildago included a reference to DACA -- or Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals -- on his altar.
