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.",

This scenario, however, could still present pitfalls for Trump.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Even if he didn't do anything wrong — anything at all — if the president were to misstate something or make an intentionally false statement, he could create a legal problem for himself.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If the president refuses the voluntary sit-down option, the special counsel team could issue a grand jury subpoena in an effort to force Trump to appear at a federal courthouse – and that could be a historic spectacle.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[contextly_sidebar id=\"TggOGkX5ANl8Bb0kPqGWcq8fEA4ex1GY\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There are numerous downsides for the president in this scenario.

One of them is the Fifth Amendment right to remain silent. Declining an interview might be political suicide for most politicians, but Donald Trump is not most politicians. It's not clear whether his base of supporters would be bothered if he decided to \"take five,\" as courthouse insiders say — especially since Trump has said he wants to talk and might be in a position to blame his lawyers for the decision if he doesn't.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Mueller's findings\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Regardless of what Mueller does or does not discover, it's not clear what might become of his findings.

Adam Schiff, D-Calif., the top Democrat on the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence, which is also investigating Russian interference in the 2016 election, called the indictment from Mueller \"a significant step forward in exposing Russia's political and electoral interference in our democracy and holding Russia, and its agents, accountable.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"While it does not include an allegation that any U.S. persons conspired wittingly with the Russian actors, the indictment leaves open the vital question of whether Americans, including any associated with the Trump campaign, knowingly played a role in Russia's active measures campaign,\" Schiff also said in a statement.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sen. Mark Warner, D-Va., the vice chairman of the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence, which is also probing Russian interference, said that \"While platforms like Facebook and Twitter are allowing Americans to communicate and share ideas in ways unimaginable just a decade ago, we're also learning that we each bear some responsibility for exercising good judgment and a healthy amount of skepticism when it comes to the things we read and share on social media.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sanders, who was in part a beneficiary of the Russian efforts according to the indictment, said in a statement that it's \"clear to everyone (except Donald Trump) that Russia was deeply involved in the 2016 elections and intends to be involved in the 2018 elections. It is the American people who should be deciding the political future of our country, not Mr. Putin and the Russian oligarchs.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>House Speaker Paul Ryan, R-Wis., who has been more accepting of evidence of Russian interference than Trump has, said the \"announcement underscores why we need to follow the facts and work to protect the integrity of future elections.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"These Russians engaged in a sinister and systematic attack on our political system. It was a conspiracy to subvert the process, and take aim at democracy itself,\" Ryan also said in a statement.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sen. Ben Sasse, R-Neb., a frequent Trump critic, said the Mueller indictment \"just put Moscow on notice.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"This ought to be a wakeup call to Washington: Putin's shadow war is aimed at undermining Americans' trust in our institutions,\" Sasse also said in a statement. \"We know Russia is coming back in 2018 and 2020 -- we have to take this threat seriously.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>However, Republican National Committee Chairwoman Ronna McDaniel struck a tone similar to Trump's, saying in a statement that it \"remains crystal clear there was no collusion and the Russians were unsuccessful in their attempts to influence the results of the election.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But, unlike the president, McDaniel did say that the indictments \"should serve as a rallying cry for Washington and the country to come together to prevent Russia, or any foreign government, from attempting to meddle in future elections.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The indictment follows \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2018/02/13/584672450/intelligence-leaders-testify-about-global-threats-in-senate-hearing\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">warnings this week\u003c/a> by the heads of the U.S. intelligence community that Russia's active measures campaign never stopped after 2016 and that the leaders of the major U.S. spy agencies expect interference to continue through this year's midterm elections.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And Friday afternoon, John Brennan, who was CIA director during the Obama administration from 2013-2017, \u003ca href=\"https://twitter.com/JohnBrennan/status/964599638916587521\">tweeted\u003c/a> that the \"DOJ statement and indictments reveal the extent and motivations of Russian interference in 2016 election.\" Brennan, who has been a frequent critic of Trump, also said, \"Claims of 'hoax' in tatters.\" \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://twitter.com/JohnBrennan/status/964599638916587521\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Copyright 2018 NPR.

Adam Schiff, D-Calif., the top Democrat on the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence, which is also investigating Russian interference in the 2016 election, called the indictment from Mueller \"a significant step forward in exposing Russia's political and electoral interference in our democracy and holding Russia, and its agents, accountable.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"While it does not include an allegation that any U.S. persons conspired wittingly with the Russian actors, the indictment leaves open the vital question of whether Americans, including any associated with the Trump campaign, knowingly played a role in Russia's active measures campaign,\" Schiff also said in a statement.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sen. Mark Warner, D-Va., the vice chairman of the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence, which is also probing Russian interference, said that \"While platforms like Facebook and Twitter are allowing Americans to communicate and share ideas in ways unimaginable just a decade ago, we're also learning that we each bear some responsibility for exercising good judgment and a healthy amount of skepticism when it comes to the things we read and share on social media.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sanders, who was in part a beneficiary of the Russian efforts according to the indictment, said in a statement that it's \"clear to everyone (except Donald Trump) that Russia was deeply involved in the 2016 elections and intends to be involved in the 2018 elections. It is the American people who should be deciding the political future of our country, not Mr. Putin and the Russian oligarchs.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>House Speaker Paul Ryan, R-Wis., who has been more accepting of evidence of Russian interference than Trump has, said the \"announcement underscores why we need to follow the facts and work to protect the integrity of future elections.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"These Russians engaged in a sinister and systematic attack on our political system. It was a conspiracy to subvert the process, and take aim at democracy itself,\" Ryan also said in a statement.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sen. Ben Sasse, R-Neb., a frequent Trump critic, said the Mueller indictment \"just put Moscow on notice.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"This ought to be a wakeup call to Washington: Putin's shadow war is aimed at undermining Americans' trust in our institutions,\" Sasse also said in a statement. \"We know Russia is coming back in 2018 and 2020 -- we have to take this threat seriously.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>However, Republican National Committee Chairwoman Ronna McDaniel struck a tone similar to Trump's, saying in a statement that it \"remains crystal clear there was no collusion and the Russians were unsuccessful in their attempts to influence the results of the election.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But, unlike the president, McDaniel did say that the indictments \"should serve as a rallying cry for Washington and the country to come together to prevent Russia, or any foreign government, from attempting to meddle in future elections.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The indictment follows \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2018/02/13/584672450/intelligence-leaders-testify-about-global-threats-in-senate-hearing\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">warnings this week\u003c/a> by the heads of the U.S. intelligence community that Russia's active measures campaign never stopped after 2016 and that the leaders of the major U.S. spy agencies expect interference to continue through this year's midterm elections.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And Friday afternoon, John Brennan, who was CIA director during the Obama administration from 2013-2017, \u003ca href=\"https://twitter.com/JohnBrennan/status/964599638916587521\">tweeted\u003c/a> that the \"DOJ statement and indictments reveal the extent and motivations of Russian interference in 2016 election.\" Brennan, who has been a frequent critic of Trump, also said, \"Claims of 'hoax' in tatters.\" \u003c/p>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",
