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

"content": "\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Updated at 5:37 p.m. ET\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In a testy Oval Office exchange with the two top congressional Democrats, Rep. Nancy Pelosi and Sen. Chuck Schumer, President Trump made clear he would be “proud” to shut down the government in less than two weeks if he doesn’t get funding for his border wall.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I’ll be the one to shut it down. I will take the mantle. And I will shut it down for border security,” Trump told House and Senate Democratic leaders as Vice President Pence sat by stoically.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The statement from Trump came in an extraordinary show before the cameras and the press, with minutes of tense back-and-forth with both Pelosi, the likely incoming House speaker, and Schumer, the Senate minority leader.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Democratic leaders have made it clear they don’t intend to give the president a victory on funding for his signature border wall, and afterward released a statement reiterating that “We gave the president two options that would keep the government open. It’s his choice to accept one of those options or shut the government down.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Pelosi told reporters on Capitol Hill at a holiday reception later Tuesday she and Trump had spoken on the phone but there was no response to the earlier offer from her and Schumer. According to an aide, the call was around 4 p.m. and lasted about a minute.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Speaking immediately afterthe meeting, both Schumer and Pelosi thought they had emerged with the upper hand after seemingly baiting Trump into taking the blame if there’s a partial shutdown just days before Christmas.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This Trump shutdown, this temper tantrum he seems to want to throw, will not get him his wall,” the Senate minority leader told reporters outside the White House.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Throughout the meeting, Trump kept insisting that much of the wall has already been built (numerous fact checkers earlier this year \u003ca href=\"https://www.factcheck.org/2018/04/has-the-border-wall-begun/\">determined it hasn’t\u003c/a>, which Schumer pointed out) and he’s also said that the military can build the rest. In a statement provided to NPR Tuesday evening, a spokesperson for the Department of Defense said “to date, there is no plan to build sections of the wall.” But, “Congress has provided options under [existing law] that could permit the Department of Defense to fund border barrier projects, such as in support of counter drug operations or national emergencies.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>During the 2016 campaign, Trump also kept claiming that Mexico would pay to build the wall, but he has since dropped that talking point.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Pelosi insisted during the meeting that the cameras should leave, saying afterward she made such a request because “we didn’t want to contradict the president when he was putting forth figures that have no basis in fact. … I didn’t want to say in front of those people, ‘You have no idea what you’re talking about.'”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Except by making that comment just after leaving the Oval Office, Pelosi was saying just that. She also kept trying to explain to Trump that there wasn’t enough support even in the GOP-controlled House for his border wall, urging him to accept a continuous funding resolution at the current spending levels, or $1.3 billion for a year. But Trump kept interjecting to shift blame, saying a House vote wouldn’t matter since he needs to get to 60 votes in the Senate anyway and that would require help from Democrats — a frequent complaint of his.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Back on Capitol Hill, Pelosi told fellow Democratic lawmakers in private that she was “trying to be the mom” in the room.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I can’t explain it to you. It was so wild. It goes to show you: You get into a tinkle contest with a skunk, you get tinkle all over you,'” Pelosi said, according to an aide in the room. “You can’t let him take you down that path. But the fact is we did get him to say, to fully own that the shutdown was his.

According to an aide, the call was around 4 p.m. and lasted about a minute.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Speaking immediately afterthe meeting, both Schumer and Pelosi thought they had emerged with the upper hand after seemingly baiting Trump into taking the blame if there’s a partial shutdown just days before Christmas.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This Trump shutdown, this temper tantrum he seems to want to throw, will not get him his wall,” the Senate minority leader told reporters outside the White House.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Throughout the meeting, Trump kept insisting that much of the wall has already been built (numerous fact checkers earlier this year \u003ca href=\"https://www.factcheck.org/2018/04/has-the-border-wall-begun/\">determined it hasn’t\u003c/a>, which Schumer pointed out) and he’s also said that the military can build the rest. In a statement provided to NPR Tuesday evening, a spokesperson for the Department of Defense said “to date, there is no plan to build sections of the wall.” But, “Congress has provided options under [existing law] that could permit the Department of Defense to fund border barrier projects, such as in support of counter drug operations or national emergencies.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>During the 2016 campaign, Trump also kept claiming that Mexico would pay to build the wall, but he has since dropped that talking point.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Pelosi insisted during the meeting that the cameras should leave, saying afterward she made such a request because “we didn’t want to contradict the president when he was putting forth figures that have no basis in fact. … I didn’t want to say in front of those people, ‘You have no idea what you’re talking about.'”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Except by making that comment just after leaving the Oval Office, Pelosi was saying just that. She also kept trying to explain to Trump that there wasn’t enough support even in the GOP-controlled House for his border wall, urging him to accept a continuous funding resolution at the current spending levels, or $1.3 billion for a year. But Trump kept interjecting to shift blame, saying a House vote wouldn’t matter since he needs to get to 60 votes in the Senate anyway and that would require help from Democrats — a frequent complaint of his.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Back on Capitol Hill, Pelosi told fellow Democratic lawmakers in private that she was “trying to be the mom” in the room.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I can’t explain it to you. It was so wild. It goes to show you: You get into a tinkle contest with a skunk, you get tinkle all over you,'” Pelosi said, according to an aide in the room. “You can’t let him take you down that path. But the fact is we did get him to say, to fully own that the shutdown was his. That was an accomplishment.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In another comment sure to irk the president, Pelosi went even further, saying that Trump’s obsession with the border wall is “like a manhood thing for him. As if manhood could ever be associated with him.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The tense exchanges underscored the challenges in the coming two years of divided government.

But they’ve also both foreshadowed conflict.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Pelosi and Democrats are promising robust investigations of Trump and his administration, and Trump has said that would lead to a “warlike posture.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Then at the end of two years, nothing is done,” Trump predicted. “Now what’s bad for them is being in the majority, I’m just going to blame them.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This leaves many questions: Are Democrats willing or able to compromise with Trump? Is Trump willing to deal? If he is, will congressional Republicans go along? And, given the way Trump has changed his mind in the midst of past negotiations, will anyone trust him?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Still, allies of the president and Pelosi interviewed for this story say some limited compromise is possible.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I think there’s several positions the president has that frankly line up more traditionally with Democrats,” said Marc Short, former director of legislative affairs for the Trump administration. “The question I think that is yet to be determined is whether or not Democrats will give their leadership the flexibility to negotiate with the president.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That’s one way of pinning blame back on the other party when big things fail to get done. Short also questioned whether Democrats would be willing to give Trump a win as he begins his re-election campaign in earnest.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>John Lawrence, a former chief of staff to Pelosi, countered that Democrats are likely open and looking to cut some deals.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“[Pelosi] is going to be, and I think Democrats in the House are going to be, concerned with proving that they can be trusted that they can govern,” Lawrence said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Short and Lawrence both see incentives for their respective parties to get something done, while questioning whether those incentives exist for the other side. But first they have to make it to next year. And the budget fight brewing as 2018 closes out could well affect the relationship going forward.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

It will also be a much smaller portion of the state.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This year, 26 percent of Californians are represented in Congress by a Republican. Next year, that number will fall to 13 percent.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Prior to the election, the average Californian living in a Republican-held district earned $65,634 per year.

Cox maintains his lead over Rep.

With striking losses in Orange County and the Central Valley, the Republican Party’s \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11704247/these-7-california-congressional-races-could-determine-which-party-controls-the-house\">diminished congressional delegation\u003c/a> will now represent a less diverse and less well-off subset of Californians and an electorate that was most enamored with the president. It will also be a much smaller portion of the state.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This year, 26 percent of Californians are represented in Congress by a Republican. Next year, that number will fall to 13 percent.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Prior to the election, the average Californian living in a Republican-held district earned $65,634 per year. That’s slightly above the state average of $63,783. The average district was also slightly less educated than the state as whole (19 percent have bachelor’s degrees compared to 20 percent statewide) and significantly whiter (49 percent to 38 percent).\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://infogram.com/changing-cagop-1hnq41wxzkvd63z\">http://infogram.com/changing-cagop-1hnq41wxzkvd63z\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",
