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.",

And eventually, years later, back to the small town in the Mexican state of Hidalgo where she was born.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sitting in her mother’s living room in Hidalgo on an armchair draped with a bright serape blanket, Maria reflected on the nursing career and family she built in California, and the deportation that wrenched her away -- unexpected outcomes of that long-ago crash.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She was just 18 the day the plane went down, and had already earned an accounting degree and gotten a good job as a secretary in a hospital near Mexico City. In addition to answering the phones, a doctor often called on Maria to help attend patients -- including the pilot injured in the plane crash. Maria got the pilot necessary blood transfusions, and his uncle was so grateful that he offered Maria a place to stay with family in Tijuana and promised to help her find a better hospital job in northern Mexico.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Opportunities had never just fallen into Maria’s lap. Born in Santa Monica, a small village with just 120 residents, Maria grew up with a father who farmed the land and resented the fact that most of his children were girls.

"content": "\u003cp>Homeland Security Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen defended the Trump administration's \"zero tolerance\" policy that calls for separating families who cross the border illegally, saying the undocumented immigrants shouldn't get special treatment.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"That's no different than what we do every day in every part of the United States — when an adult of a family commits a crime,\" she told NPR. \"If you as a parent break into a house, you will be incarcerated by police and thereby separated from your family.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Illegal aliens should not get just different rights because they happen to be illegal aliens,\" she added.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In a wide-ranging interview with NPR's John Burnett airing on \u003cem>All Things Considered\u003c/em>, Nielsen stood by the policy announced earlier this week, as well as the administration's broader crackdown on illegal immigration, saying her department is merely following the law.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She says if the public wants different immigration laws, then it is up to Congress to change them -- and that the fierce criticism directed at her department is unwarranted.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The pushback in terms of us enforcing the law is inappropriate and unacceptable. If somebody wants a different law, they should go to Congress and get a different law passed. But we took an oath and we will uphold the laws of this country,\" she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Nielsen's five-month tenure so far as Homeland Security secretary has already been consequential — and controversial.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Attorney General Jeff Sessions announced the zero tolerance policy earlier this week, and on Tuesday Nielsen appeared on Capitol Hill, where she faced questions from skeptical lawmakers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Under the policy, DHS will begin referring for prosecution anyone it catches trying to enter the United States unlawfully. Immigrant advocates criticized the announcement, saying it's cruel to separate children from their parents.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The law says if you cross between the ports of entry, you are entering without inspection and that is a crime,\" Nielsen said. \"First time is misdemeanor.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"After that it's a felony,\" she added, \"and then it goes on from there. So that hasn't changed, that's the underlying law. Our policy has not changed, and that if you break the law we will refer you for prosecution.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c!-- iframe plugin v.4.3 wordpress.org/plugins/iframe/ -->\u003cbr>\n\u003ciframe src=\"https://www.npr.org/player/embed/609480137/610161918\" width=\"100%\" height=\"290\" frameborder=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\" title=\"NPR embedded audio player\" class=\"iframe-class\">\u003c/iframe>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Nielsen clarified that the policy is targeting families who try to illegally cross away from a port of entry. Families who present themselves at a port of entry can ask for asylum. They will get a \"credible fear\" interview, and they will not be prosecuted, she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Also on her watch, DHS \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-way/2018/05/04/608654408/trump-administration-ends-temporary-protected-status-for-hondurans\">has canceled Temporary Protective Status\u003c/a>, TPS, for immigrants from a number of countries, including El Salvador, Honduras and Nepal.

If the conditions that originated from the designating event no longer exist, the statute says the secretary shall terminate. To pretend that conditions continue to exist from a hurricane 20 years ago is a fiction.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Nielsen was referring to a 1998 hurricane that struck Honduras, killing thousands and creating a migrant flow to the U.S. Administration officials insist that \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2018/05/05/608802896/dhs-ends-temporary-protected-status-for-hondurans\">conditions in Honduras have improved.\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As the Trump administration ends TPS for those countries, hundreds of thousands of people will lose legal status.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Nielsen, 45, previously served as chief of staff for Gen.

The arrests began last Friday, and included six migrants from Honduras, two from El Salvador, two from Guatemala and one from Mexico.

It isn't clear how many he would seek from California. They would provide support but not go on patrols or make arrests.
