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.",

Her cub, Bounce, born this past winter, is following her lead. Now, California wildlife officials say enough is enough. The California Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW) has approved a plan to capture and euthanize Hope, citing repeated break-ins and escalating property damage. But local advocates are fighting to save her, arguing that humans are the ones who need to change.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One recent afternoon, a crowd gathered in a Tahoe Keys backyard. High up in a pine tree sat a black bear and her cub — not Hope and Bounce — but a reminder of how common these encounters have become. “They’re up there huffing and puffing,” said Kathi Zollinger, a volunteer with the BEAR League, a nonprofit that educates locals about living safely alongside bears.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Zollinger and her team had rushed to the scene after receiving a hotline call from a homeowner. Her job is to scare the bears away without hurting them, usually with paintball guns, loud noises, or simply waiting them out. “We’re using paintball guns and yelling at them and doing other things to haze them,” Zollinger said. “The goal isn’t to harm them, just to get them back into the forest.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>California has about 60,000 black bears, and as more homes are built in forested areas, the chances of running into one are only increasing. The department plans to euthanize Hope if they are able to safely capture her. Her cub, Bounce, would be taken in and rehabilitated.

The often deadly lung disease is linked to inhaling toxic dust. Medical and occupational safety experts warn that current regulations won’t protect hundreds more relatively young workers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Between 1,000 to 1,500 stoneworkers in California could develop silicosis within the next decade, leading to roughly 285 deaths, according to California’s Division of Occupational Safety and Health, or Cal/OSHA. The state is home to about 5,000 countertop fabrication workers, predominantly Latino immigrants.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Artificial stone in the U.S. market often contains more than 90% pulverized crystalline silica, far more than natural stones such as marble and granite. When workers powercut, polish and grind slabs of the material, tiny silica particles are released. If inhaled, they can lodge in the lungs and cause tissue scarring that progressively impedes breathing. Respirable silica can also lead to lung cancer, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and other illnesses.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2 class=\"routes-Site-routes-Post-Title-__Title__title\">\u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/12064922/eric-swalwell-california-governor-race\">\u003cstrong>East Bay Rep.

The former Alameda County prosecutor has raised money and campaigned for Democrats across the country, and he could tap those relationships as he enters what promises to be an expensive campaign for the state’s top job. “I’ve been in these fights as a city councilmember up in Dublin, my hometown, as a prosecutor in Oakland, and taking on the most corrupt president ever in the U.S. Congress,” Swalwell said. “But I’m ready to bring this fight home.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The race to succeed termed-out Gov. Gavin Newsom remains wide open less than seven months before the June primary.

The former Alameda County prosecutor has raised money and campaigned for Democrats across the country, and he could tap those relationships as he enters what promises to be an expensive campaign for the state’s top job. “I’ve been in these fights as a city councilmember up in Dublin, my hometown, as a prosecutor in Oakland, and taking on the most corrupt president ever in the U.S. Congress,” Swalwell said. “But I’m ready to bring this fight home.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The race to succeed termed-out Gov.

In Los Angeles, a Latino family sued their landlord and a real estate agent over illegal eviction, only for an attorney to suggest they were \u003ca href=\"https://www.latimes.com/california/story/2025-07-23/latino-tenants-sued-their-landlord\">likely to be detained\u003c/a> by immigration agents before the case could go to trial.

The fear of retaliation from landlords has created what advocates describe as a chilling effect on immigrant renters, which “substantially undercuts” California’s strong tenant protection laws, said David Hall, co-directing tenants’ rights attorney with Centro Legal de La Raza, a nonprofit legal aid group in Oakland. “You can have the most protective laws in the world, but if people are afraid to enforce those laws … it’s like for those people, those laws don’t exist,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2 class=\"routes-Site-routes-Post-Title-__Title__title\">\u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/12030198/prewrite-kamala-harris-enters-california-governor-race-upending-democratic-landscape\">\u003cstrong>Kamala Harris Won’t Run For California Governor\u003c/strong>\u003c/a>\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Former Vice President \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/tag/kamala-harris\">Kamala Harris\u003c/a> announced Wednesday that she’s not running to be California’s next governor in 2026, when Gov.

Since 2019, Dr. Bronner’s has contributed more than $14 million to psychedelics research and drug policy reform. The company’s social media pages are filled with posts touting the medicinal and spiritual potential of hallucinogens, from psilocybin to ketamine to MDMA, also known as ecstasy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But a wrongful death lawsuit filed in December alleges the company has also fostered a risky culture of drug use among some leaders and employees, claiming they routinely use potent psychedelics as an unregulated form of “healing” and for recreational purposes.

Gavin Newsom easily won reelection Tuesday night, roundly defeating his little-known Republican challenger, Brian Dahle, with The Associated Press calling the race just minutes after polls closed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Newsom had secured more than 57% of the vote as of Thursday’s count, a commanding lead reflective of a state with nearly twice as many registered Democrats as Republicans.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Newsom’s reelection was presaged by the overwhelming defeat of an effort to recall him last year, which was rejected by 62% of voters. In fact, despite having plenty of campaign cash, Newsom didn’t even air a campaign ad for his reelection, choosing instead to put his weight behind the passage of Proposition 1 for abortion rights; against Proposition 30, a measure to tax the wealthy to fund climate goals; and to attack the conservative policies of governors in Texas and Florida.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“One thing that is settled here today is who we are as a state and what we hold dear in terms of our values,” Newsom told supporters at a Proposition 1 election night party in Sacramento.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“As we turn the page on this campaign — and I hope we turn the page on this polarization in our national discourse, once the dust settles with all these national elections — we can start to reconcile those differences and all start to focus on these universal values, this journey for recognition,” he said.[aside label=\"related coverage\" tag=\"gavin-newsom\"]Dahle, a state Senator from Lassen County, was unable to come anywhere close to matching Newsom’s fundraising prowess, relying mostly on radio and television interviews across the state. His campaign was always an uphill battle, given the Democrats’ huge advantage in voter registration and the fact that the last Republican to be elected governor was Arnold Schwarzenegger 16 years ago.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On Tuesday night, Newsom again drew contrasts between himself and Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis and Texas Gov. Greg Abbott, saying he is “resolved to do more to advance that cause of freedom.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We have governors that won their reelections tonight in other states that are banning books, that are banning speech, that are banning abortion, and here we are in California moving in a completely different direction,” Newsom said. “That’s a deep point of pride.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The constant jabs at DeSantis, Abbott and other leading Republicans has only increased speculation about Newsom’s future. Some have floated his name as a potential replacement for President Biden in 2024 or a run in 2028. Newsom, though, has repeatedly denied both, claiming he has “subzero” interest in running for president. He has insisted he backs Biden and said he wants Vice President Kamala Harris, a friend and fellow Californian, to be president.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When asked by KQED’s Marisa Lagos \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11929646/newsom-dahle-spar-over-abortion-gas-tax-and-crime-in-california-governor-debate\">during an October 23 debate\u003c/a> if he would commit to serving a full four-year term if he were reelected, Newsom said yes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But with no political threats at home, Newsom has spent the past year signing a raft of liberal legislation that could help him win over Democratic voters in a contested presidential primary — even as he broke with many progressives in the state over his recent staunch opposition to Proposition 30, which would have funded electric vehicle infrastructure.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He enacted more than \u003ca href=\"https://apnews.com/article/abortion-us-supreme-court-health-california-df6dd40a7e2af65a1c6a4042e4ffa485\">a dozen laws\u003c/a> aimed at making California a sanctuary for patients in other states seeking abortions now that the U.S. Supreme Court has overturned Roe v.

Newsom will have a very large platform from California to do that.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But a potential Newsom presidential campaign would have to answer for a host of California’s most stubborn problems, including an \u003ca href=\"https://apnews.com/article/health-california-covid-sacramento-292b0379752d1a226a741a70411eb0a9\">ever-expanding homeless population\u003c/a> and an \u003ca href=\"https://apnews.com/article/gun-violence-elections-crime-arrests-california-91261af2e3e910813489947f0c714f13\">increase in violent crime\u003c/a> that has contributed to a general sense of unease among voters. Meanwhile, soaring inflation has only increased the state’s high cost of living, contributing to California’s \u003ca href=\"https://apnews.com/article/california-health-immigration-coronavirus-pandemic-d4df0f6a2eef7a3dc4a6d27c65df7b84\">first population decline\u003c/a> and the \u003ca href=\"https://apnews.com/article/census-2020-government-and-politics-california-dd4a4f3ce3070231b0aecdc1cac3e97b\">loss of a congressional seat\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Newsom has pledged to tackle some of those issues immediately in his second term, vowing to \u003ca href=\"https://apnews.com/article/business-california-legislature-gavin-newsom-personal-taxes-e661495b9344e20a1ac474c4065db600\">call a special session of the state Legislature\u003c/a> next month to pass a new tax on oil company profits as a way to combat the state’s record-high gas prices.

Gavin Newsom easily won reelection Tuesday night, roundly defeating his little-known Republican challenger, Brian Dahle, with The Associated Press calling the race just minutes after polls closed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Newsom had secured more than 57% of the vote as of Thursday’s count, a commanding lead reflective of a state with nearly twice as many registered Democrats as Republicans.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Newsom’s reelection was presaged by the overwhelming defeat of an effort to recall him last year, which was rejected by 62% of voters. In fact, despite having plenty of campaign cash, Newsom didn’t even air a campaign ad for his reelection, choosing instead to put his weight behind the passage of Proposition 1 for abortion rights; against Proposition 30, a measure to tax the wealthy to fund climate goals; and to attack the conservative policies of governors in Texas and Florida.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“One thing that is settled here today is who we are as a state and what we hold dear in terms of our values,” Newsom told supporters at a Proposition 1 election night party in Sacramento.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“As we turn the page on this campaign — and I hope we turn the page on this polarization in our national discourse, once the dust settles with all these national elections — we can start to reconcile those differences and all start to focus on these universal values, this journey for recognition,” he said.\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

His campaign was always an uphill battle, given the Democrats’ huge advantage in voter registration and the fact that the last Republican to be elected governor was Arnold Schwarzenegger 16 years ago.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On Tuesday night, Newsom again drew contrasts between himself and Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis and Texas Gov. Greg Abbott, saying he is “resolved to do more to advance that cause of freedom.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We have governors that won their reelections tonight in other states that are banning books, that are banning speech, that are banning abortion, and here we are in California moving in a completely different direction,” Newsom said. “That’s a deep point of pride.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The constant jabs at DeSantis, Abbott and other leading Republicans has only increased speculation about Newsom’s future. Some have floated his name as a potential replacement for President Biden in 2024 or a run in 2028. Newsom, though, has repeatedly denied both, claiming he has “subzero” interest in running for president. He has insisted he backs Biden and said he wants Vice President Kamala Harris, a friend and fellow Californian, to be president.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When asked by KQED’s Marisa Lagos \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11929646/newsom-dahle-spar-over-abortion-gas-tax-and-crime-in-california-governor-debate\">during an October 23 debate\u003c/a> if he would commit to serving a full four-year term if he were reelected, Newsom said yes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But with no political threats at home, Newsom has spent the past year signing a raft of liberal legislation that could help him win over Democratic voters in a contested presidential primary — even as he broke with many progressives in the state over his recent staunch opposition to Proposition 30, which would have funded electric vehicle infrastructure.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He enacted more than \u003ca href=\"https://apnews.com/article/abortion-us-supreme-court-health-california-df6dd40a7e2af65a1c6a4042e4ffa485\">a dozen laws\u003c/a> aimed at making California a sanctuary for patients in other states seeking abortions now that the U.S. Supreme Court has overturned Roe v.

That has changed expectations for government officials and likely will help California’s next governor, whether it’s Newsom or his Republican opponent, John Cox, who is also a millionaire businessman, said Dan Schnur, who teaches politics and communications at the University of Southern California and briefly led the state’s ethics watchdog agency.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Trump and his opponents have succeeded in defining ethics in almost a completely situational and partisan way,” Schnur said. “Unfortunately, that almost certainly oozes down to state level politics and government.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Newsom, 51, got his start in business with the help of family friend Gordon Getty, son of the late billionaire oil tycoon J.

Cox said he doesn’t foresee a conflict because his businesses and properties are outside California.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As lieutenant governor, Newsom said he hasn’t participated in PlumpJack’s day-to-day operations or personnel decisions. His sister, Hilary, runs the company, though Newsom said he reviews financials and stops by big events, such as the release of a new wine vintage.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As governor, he said he’s inclined to give up all involvement, but “we’ll have lawyers, smart folks look at that.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I will do the right thing,” Newsom said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Alcohol is heavily regulated, and issues involving it often reach the governor.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Outgoing Gov. Jerry Brown was asked to decide changes big and small. He signed, for example, legislation allowing wineries to share tasting room space with a craft brewery or distillery but vetoed a bill that would have allowed San Francisco and several other cities \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/arts/13841872/jerry-brown-vetoes-4am-nightlife-bill-for-california-cities\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">to push back the closing time for bars to 4 a.m\u003c/a>. Newsom’s bars and restaurants in San Francisco and Palm Springs would have been affected.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The governor also appoints the director of the Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control, which grants liquor licenses and can revoke them or fine business owners for violations like selling to underage drinkers or people who are overly intoxicated.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>State law prohibits law-enforcement officers and state alcohol enforcers from owning liquor licenses but has no restrictions for the governor, said Marco Costales, a lawyer specializing in alcohol regulations at Nossaman LLP in Los Angeles.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Newsom could also face ethical questions if state lawmakers step into ongoing fights between Airbnb and hotel owners, who want the home-sharing platform to face the same taxes and regulations.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>California ethics laws would require Newsom to avoid intervening in specific liquor proceedings or acting on legislation that benefits his businesses differently from the industry as a whole, said Bob Stern, who wrote the California Political Reform Act, which includes conflict-of-interest restrictions for public officials.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Former Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger, who entered office with a vast fortune, put his assets in a blind trust, though he faced questions about whether it was truly blind because it was managed by his friend and longtime financial adviser. California politicians creating blind trusts disclose the assets they own when the trust is created and are prohibited from knowing about any new assets purchased.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Schwarzenegger took heat in 2005 when securities filings revealed he had a contract worth at least $1 million a year with a company that publishes fitness magazines, which derive income from ads for dietary supplements. As governor he vetoed a bill that would have imposed government regulations on the supplement industry. He eventually severed ties with the magazines.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In California, the governor can recuse himself from regulatory decisions but can’t take a pass on legislation. Bills become law automatically if the governor does nothing, and there’s no mechanism to cede authority to the lieutenant governor for reasons of conflict.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“A legislator can skip a vote,” Schnur said. “A governor cannot really skip a veto.”\u003c/p>\n\n",

That has changed expectations for government officials and likely will help California’s next governor, whether it’s Newsom or his Republican opponent, John Cox, who is also a millionaire businessman, said Dan Schnur, who teaches politics and communications at the University of Southern California and briefly led the state’s ethics watchdog agency.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Trump and his opponents have succeeded in defining ethics in almost a completely situational and partisan way,” Schnur said. “Unfortunately, that almost certainly oozes down to state level politics and government.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Newsom, 51, got his start in business with the help of family friend Gordon Getty, son of the late billionaire oil tycoon J. Paul Getty. With his financing, Newsom and Gordon Getty’s son, Billy, opened a San Francisco wine shop in 1992 and later a restaurant.\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"alignright\">\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>\u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/lowdown/24867/map-trumps-potential-conflicts-of-interest-around-the-world\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">MAP: Trump’s Global Conflicts of Interest\u003c/a>\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>Those grew to a web of businesses known as the PlumpJack Group that includes four hotels; four Napa Valley wineries; several bars and restaurants; two wine and liquor stores in San Francisco; and an online liquor store.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When he was San Francisco’s mayor, Newsom divested from his businesses in the city, as required by the city’s charter. But he said as governor, he won’t sell his stake, though nearly all his businesses are in California.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On the GOP side, Cox has extensive investments, including publicly traded stocks and more than 2,000 apartments in the Midwest, along with a stake in a law and accounting firm he founded in the 1980s. Cox said he doesn’t foresee a conflict because his businesses and properties are outside California.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As lieutenant governor, Newsom said he hasn’t participated in PlumpJack’s day-to-day operations or personnel decisions. His sister, Hilary, runs the company, though Newsom said he reviews financials and stops by big events, such as the release of a new wine vintage.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As governor, he said he’s inclined to give up all involvement, but “we’ll have lawyers, smart folks look at that.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I will do the right thing,” Newsom said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Alcohol is heavily regulated, and issues involving it often reach the governor.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Outgoing Gov. Jerry Brown was asked to decide changes big and small. He signed, for example, legislation allowing wineries to share tasting room space with a craft brewery or distillery but vetoed a bill that would have allowed San Francisco and several other cities \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/arts/13841872/jerry-brown-vetoes-4am-nightlife-bill-for-california-cities\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">to push back the closing time for bars to 4 a.m\u003c/a>. Newsom’s bars and restaurants in San Francisco and Palm Springs would have been affected.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The governor also appoints the director of the Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control, which grants liquor licenses and can revoke them or fine business owners for violations like selling to underage drinkers or people who are overly intoxicated.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>State law prohibits law-enforcement officers and state alcohol enforcers from owning liquor licenses but has no restrictions for the governor, said Marco Costales, a lawyer specializing in alcohol regulations at Nossaman LLP in Los Angeles.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Newsom could also face ethical questions if state lawmakers step into ongoing fights between Airbnb and hotel owners, who want the home-sharing platform to face the same taxes and regulations.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>California ethics laws would require Newsom to avoid intervening in specific liquor proceedings or acting on legislation that benefits his businesses differently from the industry as a whole, said Bob Stern, who wrote the California Political Reform Act, which includes conflict-of-interest restrictions for public officials.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Former Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger, who entered office with a vast fortune, put his assets in a blind trust, though he faced questions about whether it was truly blind because it was managed by his friend and longtime financial adviser. California politicians creating blind trusts disclose the assets they own when the trust is created and are prohibited from knowing about any new assets purchased.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Schwarzenegger took heat in 2005 when securities filings revealed he had a contract worth at least $1 million a year with a company that publishes fitness magazines, which derive income from ads for dietary supplements. As governor he vetoed a bill that would have imposed government regulations on the supplement industry. He eventually severed ties with the magazines.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In California, the governor can recuse himself from regulatory decisions but can’t take a pass on legislation. Bills become law automatically if the governor does nothing, and there’s no mechanism to cede authority to the lieutenant governor for reasons of conflict.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",
