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>Supreme Court Justice Anthony Kennedy announced his retirement Wednesday, setting the stage for what promises to be an epic political battle over his replacement.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A Trump nominee is likely to be far more conservative than Kennedy, who, though appointed by President Reagan, voted with the court's liberals in some key cases.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Kennedy, who will turn 82 next month, made the announcement one day after the court handed down its last pending opinion for the 2017-18 term. \u003ca href=\"https://apps.npr.org/documents/document.html?id=4562908-Justice-Anthony-Kennedy-retirement-letter\">He said he would continue to serve until July 31 of this year\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There is little doubt about Kennedy's mark on history. Quite simply, he remade the face of marriage in America. More than any other justice, he was responsible for the advancement of LGBT rights. He wrote four of the court's opinions on the subject over nearly two decades, and ultimately declared marriage between two people of the same sex a fundamental right protected by the Constitution.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"No union is more profound than marriage, for it embodies the highest ideals of love, fidelity, devotion, sacrifice, and family,\" \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/2015/06/26/417840345/supreme-court-changes-face-of-marriage-in-historic-ruling\">Kennedy said in his opinion\u003c/a>. \"In forming a marital union two people become something greater than what they once were.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On a court that has become increasingly conservative, Kennedy's role has been pivotal. In 5-4 decisions, his vote has usually determined the outcome on some of the hottest legal and social issues of the day — not just gay rights, but abortion, campaign finance, gun rights, affirmative action, the war on terror and the death penalty.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>President Trump has pledged to nominate a replacement who will almost certainly vote differently on many of these issues, putting some landmark decisions in jeopardy — from \u003cem>Roe v.

"content": "\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Updated 4:15 p.m. ET\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A senior California Democratic lawmaker added some fresh fuel to the raging debate over civility in politics with a call for public confrontations with Trump administration officials.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"If you think we're rallying now you ain't seen nothing yet,\" Rep. Maxine Waters, D-Calif, told supporters at a rally in Los Angeles over the weekend. \"If you see anybody from that (Trump) Cabinet in a restaurant, in a department store, at a gasoline station, you get out and you create a crowd and you push back on them, and you tell them they're not welcome anymore, anywhere.\" A \u003ca href=\"https://twitter.com/RealSaavedra/status/1010981944056664064\">video of her remarks\u003c/a> was posted on Twitter on Sunday.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/1011295779422695424\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Her remarks drew a response from President Trump, who called her \"an extraordinarily low IQ person\" in a \u003ca href=\"https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/1011295779422695424\">tweet\u003c/a> on Monday, and warned, \"Be careful what you wish for Max!\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Waters' comments come as at least three Trump administration officials — Homeland Security Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen, adviser Stephen Miller and spokeswoman Sarah Sanders — have been forced out or denied service in restaurants. Protesters have also \u003ca href=\"http://www.latimes.com/politics/la-na-pol-essential-washington-updates-protesters-gather-outside-homeland-1529684904-htmlstory.html\">targeted Nielsen at home\u003c/a> in recent days over the Trump administration's immigration policies.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Without naming Waters directly, Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., \u003ca href=\"https://twitter.com/NancyPelosi/status/1011264189850161152\">tweeted a CNN story\u003c/a> about the controversy and said that President Trump's own incivility has \"provoked responses that are predictable but unacceptable.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In a Monday morning appearance on Fox News, Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy, R-Calif., called on Waters to apologize. \"The people who claim tolerance seem to be the most intolerant in this process,\" McCarthy said. \"I have friends on the other side of the aisle where we philosophically disagree. We have debates about our philosophy difference, but we'll sit down and have dinner together, have a cup of coffee together.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., weighed in Monday afternoon from the Senate floor. Like Pelosi, he did not mention Waters by name. \"I strongly disagree with those who advocate harassing folks if they don't agree with you,\" Schumer said, \"No one should call for the harassment of political opponents.

"content": "\u003cp>President Donald Trump cast doubt Friday on wrenching tales of migrant children separated from their families at the border, dismissing \"phony stories of sadness and grief\" while asserting the real victims of the nation's immigration crisis are Americans killed by those who cross the border unlawfully.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Bombarded with criticism condemning the family-separation situation as a national moment of shame, Trump came back firing, sometimes twisting facts and changing his story but nonetheless highlighting the genuine grief of families on the other side of the equation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"You hear the other side, you never hear this side,\" said Trump, standing with a dozen of what he calls the \"angel families\" who lost loved ones at the hands of people in the country illegally. He focused on the fact that young migrants separated from parents are likely to be reunited, unlike the victims of murders.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"These are the American citizens permanently separated from their loved ones. The word 'permanently' being the word that you have to think about. Permanently — they're not separated for a day or two days, these are permanently separated because they were killed by criminal illegal aliens.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/1010246126820347906\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Amid mushrooming bipartisan concern over depictions of terrified migrant children separated from their parents, Trump on Wednesday had \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11675975/speaker-ryan-plans-immigration-votes-amid-doubts-that-bills-can-pass\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">abruptly reversed course and signed an executive order\u003c/a> to overturn the policy, although up to \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11676360/military-asked-to-provide-20000-beds-for-detained-immigrant-children\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">2,000 children\u003c/a> are still believed to be separated from their parents. But that rare moment of public capitulation was brief from the president, who laced his remarks at a rally in Minnesota that night with hardline immigration rhetoric that continued Friday. In a tweet, the president raised questions about whether the migrants' hardships really existed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We must maintain a Strong Southern Border,\" the president tweeted. \"We cannot allow our Country to be overrun by illegal immigrants as the Democrats tell their phony stories of sadness and grief, hoping it will help them in the elections. Obama and others had the same pictures, and did nothing about it!\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Trump's suggestion that the stories were erroneous was likely fueled by revelations Friday about one of the defining images to this point in the crisis, a 2-year-old Honduran girl crying as her mother was stopped by a Border Patrol agent. But the girl in the photograph, who ended up on the cover of Time Magazine this week, was not separated from her mother but detained with her, the child's father told the Daily Mail. Time Magazine said it stood by the image because it captures \"the stakes of this moment.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Trump has long chafed at the media's treatment, his fury only growing in the past week when he felt that he did not receive proper credit for his summit in Singapore with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un. Some conservatives seized hold of the photo faux pas to attack the media, and White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders tweeted, \"It's shameful that dems and the media exploited this photo of a little girl to push their agenda.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Other Trump allies have gone even further. Ann Coulter, a conservative pundit, said Sunday in an interview on Fox News that kids at the border were \"actor children\" who were \"given scripts to read by liberals.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Coulter then turned to the camera and said to Trump, \"Don't fall for it.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A number of Democrats aggressively pushed back against Trump's claims. Rep. Peter Welch of Vermont said Friday that Trump's assertion was \"bizarre\" and that the border patrol processing center he visited in Texas in recent days was \"nothing short of a prison.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As part of his defense for his zero tolerance border crossing policy, Trump has frequently pointed to — and exaggerated — the threat posed by members of the violent gang MS-13 who have entered the United States. In what was likely not a coincidence, the Justice Department on Friday unsealed an indictment charging 11 suspected MS-13 gang members in connection with the killings of two teens in Virginia. All the suspects were from El Salvador.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But the central piece of Trump's attempts to counter-program against the despairing images at the border was to stand with the \"angel families,\" as he did repeatedly during his presidential campaign, including at the 2016 Republican National Convention. At the somber event at the White House complex on Friday, Trump introduced the families, who delivered heartbreaking tales of their loved ones' lives and, at times, gruesome descriptions of their deaths.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Many of them held large photos of their loved ones, some of which the president autographed. Trump said that one of the victims looked like the actor Tom Selleck.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Your loss will not have been in vain,\" Trump said. \"We will secure our borders, and we will make sure that they're properly taken care of.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The president also rattled off a litany of statistics that indicated that illegal immigrants commit violent crimes at a far higher rate than U.S. citizens, saying \"you hear it's like they're better people than what we have, than our citizens. It's not true.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But his assertion has been contradicted by a number of studies, including one by the Cato Institute and another in the journal Criminology that found that places with higher percentages of undocumented immigrants do not have higher rates of crime.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A Homeland Security report said there were 972 calls reporting crimes to its Victims of Immigration Crime Engagement hotline from April 26 through Sept. 30 last year. The hotline handled a total of 4,602 calls including general comments. The report said some of the calls were made for victim impact statements that lead to the deportation of someone who commits a crime. Victims also testified in immigration court proceedings, and their calls led to the arrest and detention of others.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At the event, Trump also bashed \"the mayor of San Diego\" for warning citizens about immigration agent raids. But the mayor of San Diego, Kevin Faulconer, is a Republican who did not provide a tip; a mayor who did was Libby Schaaf, a Democrat from Oakland,.\u003c/p>\n\n",

"content": "\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Amid mushrooming bipartisan concern over depictions of terrified migrant children separated from their parents, Trump on Wednesday had \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11675975/speaker-ryan-plans-immigration-votes-amid-doubts-that-bills-can-pass\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">abruptly reversed course and signed an executive order\u003c/a> to overturn the policy, although up to \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11676360/military-asked-to-provide-20000-beds-for-detained-immigrant-children\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">2,000 children\u003c/a> are still believed to be separated from their parents. But that rare moment of public capitulation was brief from the president, who laced his remarks at a rally in Minnesota that night with hardline immigration rhetoric that continued Friday. In a tweet, the president raised questions about whether the migrants' hardships really existed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We must maintain a Strong Southern Border,\" the president tweeted. \"We cannot allow our Country to be overrun by illegal immigrants as the Democrats tell their phony stories of sadness and grief, hoping it will help them in the elections. Obama and others had the same pictures, and did nothing about it!\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Trump's suggestion that the stories were erroneous was likely fueled by revelations Friday about one of the defining images to this point in the crisis, a 2-year-old Honduran girl crying as her mother was stopped by a Border Patrol agent. But the girl in the photograph, who ended up on the cover of Time Magazine this week, was not separated from her mother but detained with her, the child's father told the Daily Mail. Time Magazine said it stood by the image because it captures \"the stakes of this moment.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Trump has long chafed at the media's treatment, his fury only growing in the past week when he felt that he did not receive proper credit for his summit in Singapore with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un. Some conservatives seized hold of the photo faux pas to attack the media, and White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders tweeted, \"It's shameful that dems and the media exploited this photo of a little girl to push their agenda.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Other Trump allies have gone even further. Ann Coulter, a conservative pundit, said Sunday in an interview on Fox News that kids at the border were \"actor children\" who were \"given scripts to read by liberals.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Coulter then turned to the camera and said to Trump, \"Don't fall for it.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A number of Democrats aggressively pushed back against Trump's claims. Rep. Peter Welch of Vermont said Friday that Trump's assertion was \"bizarre\" and that the border patrol processing center he visited in Texas in recent days was \"nothing short of a prison.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As part of his defense for his zero tolerance border crossing policy, Trump has frequently pointed to — and exaggerated — the threat posed by members of the violent gang MS-13 who have entered the United States. In what was likely not a coincidence, the Justice Department on Friday unsealed an indictment charging 11 suspected MS-13 gang members in connection with the killings of two teens in Virginia. All the suspects were from El Salvador.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But the central piece of Trump's attempts to counter-program against the despairing images at the border was to stand with the \"angel families,\" as he did repeatedly during his presidential campaign, including at the 2016 Republican National Convention. At the somber event at the White House complex on Friday, Trump introduced the families, who delivered heartbreaking tales of their loved ones' lives and, at times, gruesome descriptions of their deaths.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Many of them held large photos of their loved ones, some of which the president autographed. Trump said that one of the victims looked like the actor Tom Selleck.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Your loss will not have been in vain,\" Trump said. \"We will secure our borders, and we will make sure that they're properly taken care of.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The president also rattled off a litany of statistics that indicated that illegal immigrants commit violent crimes at a far higher rate than U.S. citizens, saying \"you hear it's like they're better people than what we have, than our citizens. It's not true.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But his assertion has been contradicted by a number of studies, including one by the Cato Institute and another in the journal Criminology that found that places with higher percentages of undocumented immigrants do not have higher rates of crime.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A Homeland Security report said there were 972 calls reporting crimes to its Victims of Immigration Crime Engagement hotline from April 26 through Sept. 30 last year. The hotline handled a total of 4,602 calls including general comments. The report said some of the calls were made for victim impact statements that lead to the deportation of someone who commits a crime. Victims also testified in immigration court proceedings, and their calls led to the arrest and detention of others.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At the event, Trump also bashed \"the mayor of San Diego\" for warning citizens about immigration agent raids. But the mayor of San Diego, Kevin Faulconer, is a Republican who did not provide a tip; a mayor who did was Libby Schaaf, a Democrat from Oakland,.\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",

Then, after arresting the parents and other adults, the kids are detained as “unaccompanied minors” because they are now in the country undocumented, without any parental or familial supervision.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And, she says, because U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers arrest the parents — something that did not happen in the vast majority of cases before zero tolerance — they can even claim the children were being smuggled in by criminals.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The result: Once these teenagers are labeled “unaccompanied minors,” they are placed in the custody of HHS and become subject to different rules. Children who are held in ICE custody with their parents must be released within 20 days, under the Flores settlement agreement that sets conditions for children in immigration custody. The children in this tent camp, run by HHS, don’t benefit from that time limit. And because the tent camp is on federal land, it is not subject to state inspections.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Meanwhile, some “unaccompanied minors” can be released while their immigration case proceeds, if a family member or other sponsor can be found.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11675909\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1200px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-11675909\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/06/carlos_morales_marfa_public_radio__1_.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1200\" height=\"795\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/06/carlos_morales_marfa_public_radio__1_.jpg 1200w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/06/carlos_morales_marfa_public_radio__1_-160x106.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/06/carlos_morales_marfa_public_radio__1_-800x530.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/06/carlos_morales_marfa_public_radio__1_-1020x676.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/06/carlos_morales_marfa_public_radio__1_-1180x782.jpg 1180w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/06/carlos_morales_marfa_public_radio__1_-960x636.jpg 960w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/06/carlos_morales_marfa_public_radio__1_-240x159.jpg 240w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/06/carlos_morales_marfa_public_radio__1_-375x248.jpg 375w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/06/carlos_morales_marfa_public_radio__1_-520x345.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Protesters marched on the tent encampment at Tornillo Port of Entry near El Paso on Father’s Day. \u003ccite>(Carlos Morales/Marfa Public Radio)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>But a new Trump administration policy requiring federal agencies to share information is making it harder to find those sponsors, attorneys said. That’s because if these boys tell Health and Human Services workers about family members — who might be undocumented themselves — ICE officers can now take that information and arrest those family members before they even get to the encampment.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Lopez said this discourages undocumented family members from claiming the boys, because they’re scared of being apprehended and deported themselves.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“There has to be a better system [to] ensure parents know where their kids are, kids know where their parents are, they’re able to communicate with each other, and the parents are able to assert their right,” Lopez said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The bottom line, according to Lopez: More people are being detained and for longer periods of time.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This legal logjam is compounded by the fact that the teenagers are having a hard time reaching their parents, and legal representation is hard to come by in this rural area.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“El Paso doesn’t have a lot of lawyers, and Tornillo, Texas, has no lawyers,” said Rep.

Then, after arresting the parents and other adults, the kids are detained as “unaccompanied minors” because they are now in the country undocumented, without any parental or familial supervision.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And, she says, because U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers arrest the parents — something that did not happen in the vast majority of cases before zero tolerance — they can even claim the children were being smuggled in by criminals.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The result: Once these teenagers are labeled “unaccompanied minors,” they are placed in the custody of HHS and become subject to different rules. Children who are held in ICE custody with their parents must be released within 20 days, under the Flores settlement agreement that sets conditions for children in immigration custody. The children in this tent camp, run by HHS, don’t benefit from that time limit. And because the tent camp is on federal land, it is not subject to state inspections.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Meanwhile, some “unaccompanied minors” can be released while their immigration case proceeds, if a family member or other sponsor can be found.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11675909\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1200px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-11675909\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/06/carlos_morales_marfa_public_radio__1_.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1200\" height=\"795\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/06/carlos_morales_marfa_public_radio__1_.jpg 1200w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/06/carlos_morales_marfa_public_radio__1_-160x106.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/06/carlos_morales_marfa_public_radio__1_-800x530.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/06/carlos_morales_marfa_public_radio__1_-1020x676.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/06/carlos_morales_marfa_public_radio__1_-1180x782.jpg 1180w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/06/carlos_morales_marfa_public_radio__1_-960x636.jpg 960w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/06/carlos_morales_marfa_public_radio__1_-240x159.jpg 240w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/06/carlos_morales_marfa_public_radio__1_-375x248.jpg 375w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/06/carlos_morales_marfa_public_radio__1_-520x345.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Protesters marched on the tent encampment at Tornillo Port of Entry near El Paso on Father’s Day. \u003ccite>(Carlos Morales/Marfa Public Radio)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>But a new Trump administration policy requiring federal agencies to share information is making it harder to find those sponsors, attorneys said.
