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>The Democratic Party kicks off its national convention Monday, an event organizers have dubbed “Uniting America,” which is a bit ironic given that participants will be anything but united in one place due to public health requirements of the coronavirus pandemic. What was supposed to be a massive gathering in Milwaukee is now a dramatically pared-down and very socially distanced event.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In 2016, at the last Democratic National Convention, presidential nominee Hillary Clinton took the convention stage in Philadelphia as thousands of people clapped and cheered.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This year will have a much different feel, one that was previewed as the 2020 nominee, former Vice President Joe Biden, introduced his new running mate, \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11831285/kamala-harris-is-bidens-vp-pick-first-black-woman-on-a-major-party-national-ticket\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">California Sen. Kamala Harris\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Good afternoon everyone,” he said last week to a mostly empty gym and just a few socially distanced journalists. “To me and to Kamala, this is an exciting day.” [aside tag=\"politics\" label=\"Related Stories\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>No cheering, no crowds, hardly any people. Not even a traditional photo of the running mates hugging and waving. It was an event designed to keep everyone safe from the coronavirus — and a not-too-subtle signal that, unlike President Trump, Biden takes public health guidelines seriously.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And it’s how the Democratic Party will be conducting this week’s national convention. There will be remote speeches, preproduced video content and \u003ca href=\"https://www.demconvention.com/schedule-and-speakers/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">plenty of Zoom meetings\u003c/a> for delegates like Hanieh Jodat Barnes. This will be the first convention for the California Bernie Sanders delegate, and she’s worried the virtual nature of the event will make it easier for leaders to ignore the progressive wing of the party.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Nonetheless, that has not really stopped us from moving forward and working on platform suggestions on Medicare for All, Green New Deal, … [and] foreign policy and demilitarization,” she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Jodat Barnes took part in a so-called shadow convention this past weekend, also held mostly online, that focused on progressive causes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Delegates aren’t the only ones dealing with the fallout of this year’s unusual setup. A lot of people use the convention for networking and business purposes.

Kamala Harris as his running mate. Harris is the first Black woman and the first Asian American to be nominated for the vice presidency of a major political party. On Wednesday, Biden announced that their campaign had raised $26 million within the 24 hours of announcing Harris as his running mate. In December, Harris ended her own presidential bid, after struggling to define herself on key issues and fundraising difficulties. Before being elected to the U.S. Senate in 2016, she served as California attorney general and San Francisco district attorney. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Guests:\u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Scott Shafer, KQED politics and government senior editor\u003c/span>\u003c/li>\n\u003cli style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Marisa Lagos, KQED politics and government correspondent \u003c/span>\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Former Labor Secretary Robert Reich on the Economy\u003cbr>\n\u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Last week, the number of Americans filing state unemployment claims fell below 1 million for the first time since March, according to the U.S. Labor Department. But the economy continues to be battered by the coronavirus as the pace of rehiring slows and the national unemployment rate continues to hover above 10%. California’s economic outlook is particularly bleak, with an unemployment rate of nearly 15% in June and nearly 10 million unemployment claims processed since March. Congress remains at an impasse over extending unemployment benefits to millions of Americans that expired nearly two weeks ago. Meanwhile, tech behemoths such as Amazon, Facebook, Apple and Google posted strong quarterly earnings, indicating their resilience amid economic uncertainty and mass layoffs.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Guest:\u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Robert Reich, professor of public policy, UC Berkeley, and former U.S. secretary of labor (1993 - 1997) \u003c/span>\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Nabbing the Coronavirus Before It Can Do Harm\u003cbr>\n\u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">This week, scientists at UCSF announced the early stage of what could become a promising new way to protect people from coronavirus infection until a vaccine is developed and readily available. In a lab, they engineered a tiny antibody, normally present in the immune systems of llamas and camels, to act like a molecular mousetrap by latching onto spikes that coronavirus molecules use to infect cells in the airways and pump out copies of the virus. With the spikes blocked, the coronavirus would then no longer be able to hijack cells, propagate inside the body and damage lungs and other organs. The scientists are calling their discovery “AeroNabs” and published their findings online as a preprint before being peer reviewed, a process which has become common recently to quickly disseminate coronavirus research to the broader scientific community. Unlike other COVID-19 treatments, AeroNabs could also be administered as a nasal spray or inhaler, and at home instead of a hospital. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> \u003c/span>\u003cb>Guests:\u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Aashish Manglik, MD PhD, assistant professor of pharmaceutical chemistry, UCSF\u003c/span>\u003c/li>\n\u003cli style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Peter Walter, PhD, professor of biophysics and biochemistry, UCSF\u003c/span>\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\n",

Many Americans got to know her when she ran for president last year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But we here in the Bay Area have known her for a lot longer. Not just because she was born in Oakland and raised in Berkeley — but because her political career started in San Francisco.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Now she’s joined Joe Biden’s ticket as the Democratic nominee for vice president. So on this episode of The Bay podcast, we explored how Bay Area politics shaped Kamala Harris and spoke to Marisa Lagos, KQED politics correspondent.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Read on for five takeaways from our interview with Lagos.

Her relationship to the justice system will always be a flashpoint\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Kamala Harris has always had this tension within her career, which is that she is a law enforcement officer. She was a prosecutor in Alameda. She was a prosecutor in San Francisco before she became DA. You know, she threw people in prison.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On the other hand, she is an Indian American, African American woman who comes from a progressive mold of San Francisco politics, who is anti-death penalty, who has spent a lot of time talking about the need to be “smart on crime, not tough on crime.” It’s this idea that we can be both sort of progressive in the way we approach criminal justice, but also still respect law enforcement and understand that they are a necessary part of of our world.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>2. Her start in San Francisco will always define her (for better or worse)\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>When you learn how to do politics at the local level in San Francisco, it makes you way more equipped for Sacramento — which makes you way more equipped for Washington, D.C. I don’t know that you see a lot of people leap-frog the way she has so quickly. And I think that is obviously partly due to her talent as a politician, but I think partly due to the schooling she got in San Francisco.

The House bill included a ban on chokeholds and no-knock warrants, and an end to so-called “qualified immunity,” which often shields police officers from lawsuits.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Bass, who chairs the Congressional Black Caucus, told the PBS NewsHour recently that the opposing measure from Republicans in the U.S. Senate lacked teeth.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We don’t need to study chokeholds. We don’t need to have data collection about no-knock warrants. We don’t need a federal registry that nobody sees,” Bass said.

And she’s able to bring people together to achieve a great result.’[/pullquote]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The bill passed the House overwhelmingly.

And she’s able to bring people together to achieve a great result,” Lieu said. He also said he wasn’t surprised at all when Bass’s name popped up on Biden’s V.P. list.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I think she is a remarkable person who has shown grace and courage and an ability to heal and unify people.

The state controversially forged ahead with its primary, despite public health concerns. Results for the state's contest are expected on Monday.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It was\u003cstrong> \u003c/strong>the first state to hold a contest since March 17. Biden swept three primaries that day, capping a month in which he rose from what seemed like the political dead to dominate three straight weeks of multiple-state primaries. Biden won 10 contests on Super Tuesday, five a week later and three more in mid-March, before the virus delayed more than a dozen contests.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sanders, like every other Democratic presidential candidate, had long promised to support the eventual nominee. In his remarks Wednesday he congratulated Biden, calling him a \"very decent man,\" and promised to \"work with [Biden] to move our progressive ideas forward.\" Biden lauded Sanders in a lengthy statement of his own.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Still, Sanders said he'll remain on the ballot in the rest of this year's primaries, in order to win more delegates to bring to the Democratic National Convention. The more pledged delegates Sanders has, the more he'll be able to influence the party's platform and rules. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Not long ago, it was Sanders, not Biden, who seemed poised to win the Democratic presidential nomination. Sanders finished atop the muddled Iowa caucuses in a virtual tie, narrowly won New Hampshire, and took the Nevada caucuses in a landslide.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Sanders, an independent who caucuses with the Democrats, was never able to win broad support beyond his base of core supporters. And when the Democratic field suddenly narrowed after Biden's \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2020/02/28/805816185/live-south-carolina-primary-results-and-analysis\">blowout victory in South Carolina\u003c/a>, Biden consolidated most of the voters that had previously split their loyalties among former South Bend, Ind., Mayor Pete Buttigieg, Minnesota Sen. Amy Klobuchar and others. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Suddenly, Sanders wasn't just knocked out of the front-runner position; he was underperforming his 2016 presidential bid. Biden beat him in several states Sanders carried four years ago, and Biden carried every county in Michigan, the site of Sanders' most surprising 2016 victory over eventual nominee Hillary Clinton. And his vote shares were consistently lower, even when it was effectively \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2020/03/04/811785729/biden-surges-on-super-tuesday-transforming-democratic-primary-into-2-man-race\">a two-candidate race\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sanders conceded he was \"losing the debate over electability\" after that string of losses to Biden but vowed to press on, arguing he was winning the party's \"ideological debate.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sanders repeated that argument Wednesday, saying \"few would deny that over the course of the last five years, our movement has won the ideological struggle\" for policies like a $15 minimum wage and universal health care.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"It was not long ago that people considered these ideas radical and fringe,\" he said. \"Today they are mainstream ideas and many of them are already being implemented in cities and states across the country.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside label='Election 2020' tag='election2020']Indeed, despite two failed attempts for the Democratic nomination, Sanders has left a major mark on the party he never formally joined. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In 2016, his \"Medicare for All\" proposal was far outside the party's mainstream. In 2020, several other presidential candidates had co-sponsored Sanders' signature health care plan. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Even candidates like Biden, who opposed Medicare for All, framed their own platforms around Sanders' proposals, promising a large government-run health insurance program as a central component of their plans. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Still, Sanders was never able to replicate the coalition of young, progressive and often disaffected voters he put together in 2016. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While Sanders is promising to campaign for Biden, it's an open question whether his devoted, progressive base will enthusiastically back a moderate who Sanders criticized in recent months for past votes for international trade deals and the 2003 Iraq War. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Many people in Clinton's camp blamed hostility from Sanders supporters as a reason why she lost the general election to President Trump in 2016 — though that hostility was exacerbated by hacked and leaked Democratic National Committee emails showing that many party officials had a clear preference for Clinton over Sanders.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On Wednesday, Sanders directly addressed supporters who wanted to see him stay in the race: \"I understand that,\" Sanders said, but countered, \"I cannot in good conscience continue to mount a campaign that cannot win and which would interfere with the important work required of all of us in this difficult hour.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In his \u003ca href=\"https://medium.com/@JoeBiden/statement-from-vice-president-biden-5de128a935ac\">statement\u003c/a>, Biden said Sanders \"has put his heart and soul into not only running for President, but for the causes and issues he has been dedicated to his whole life.\" \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He added that \"Sanders and his supporters have changed the dialogue in America.\" \u003c/p>\n\u003cdiv class=\"fullattribution\">Copyright 2020 NPR.
