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.",

It’s not an original strategy.

A spokeswoman for the U.S. Attorney's Office said it is standard practice to wait until local law enforcement has finished its investigation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"That examination will involve a review of the substance and results of the state and local investigations, and any additional investigative steps, if warranted,” the joint statement said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Clark's family and black community leaders \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11730454/stephon-clarks-brother-calls-for-state-prosecution-of-cops\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">had urged Becerra to reach a different conclusion\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I would like for the attorney general to prosecute the officers,\" his brother, Stevante Clark, said Sunday. \"I want justice and accountability.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Background on the Shooting\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The officers who shot Clark were responding to reports of a man breaking into cars in a South Sacramento neighborhood.

A spokeswoman for the U.S. Attorney's Office said it is standard practice to wait until local law enforcement has finished its investigation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"That examination will involve a review of the substance and results of the state and local investigations, and any additional investigative steps, if warranted,” the joint statement said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Clark's family and black community leaders \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11730454/stephon-clarks-brother-calls-for-state-prosecution-of-cops\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">had urged Becerra to reach a different conclusion\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I would like for the attorney general to prosecute the officers,\" his brother, Stevante Clark, said Sunday. \"I want justice and accountability.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Background on the Shooting\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The officers who shot Clark were responding to reports of a man breaking into cars in a South Sacramento neighborhood. A sheriff's department helicopter spotted the suspect in a backyard and reported that he broke a sliding glass door on a house before he ran into a neighboring backyard — behind his grandparents' home.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The officers confronted Clark there at approximately 9:30 p.m. One of them said, “Show me your hands! ... Gun, gun, gun!” just before both officers fired a total of 20 rounds at Clark.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Clark's family, including his two sons, his parents and his grandparents, filed a wrongful death lawsuit in January seeking more than $20 million from the city, Mercadal and Robinet, alleging that the officers used excessive force and that Clark was a victim of racial profiling.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One of the officers who shot Clark is black and the other is white, police said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Passions became more inflamed by conflicting autopsy results.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Police said Clark was facing officers when he was killed, moving forward with his arms extended and an object in his hands. The object was a cellphone.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Police video of the shooting does not clearly capture all that happened after Clark ran into his grandmother's backyard.\u003c/p>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutube'>\n \u003cspan class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__embedYoutubeInside'>\n \u003ciframe\n loading='lazy'\n class='utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__youtubeShortcode__youtubePlayer'\n type='text/html'\n src='//www.youtube.com/embed/4ICLcwf7YsY'\n title='//www.youtube.com/embed/4ICLcwf7YsY'\n allowfullscreen='true'\n style='border:0;'>\u003c/iframe>\n \u003c/span>\n \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003cp>The official Sacramento County coroner's report, \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11665949/dueling-autopsies-stir-controversy-over-sacramento-police-shooting-of-stephon-clark\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">released in early May 2018,\u003c/a> contradicted some of the medical findings and most of the opinions of a \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11658808/independent-autopsy-finds-police-shot-stephon-clark-in-the-back\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">private forensic pathologist hired by Clark's family\u003c/a>, who announced to a bank of news reporters that the unarmed black man wasn't facing the officers when they opened fire.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>KQED's Sonja Hutson, Katie Orr and Scott Shafer, and the Associated Press contributed to this report.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Cohen told Congress that Trump remained involved in paying hush money to a porn film actress even after arriving in the White House and directed him to lie about it. California lawmakers played a prominent role in the hearing on Capitol Hill, with some of the most pointed questions coming from Silicon Valley congressman Ro Khanna and Southern California Rep. Katie Hill. Meanwhile, California’s Republican Party recently picked a new leader, Jessica Patterson, the first woman and first Latina to chair the state GOP. \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\">Tal Kopan, Washington, D.C., correspondent, San Francisco Chronicle\u003c/span>\u003c/li>\n\u003cli style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Jason Clark, Bay Area regional vice chair, California Republican Party\u003c/span>\u003c/li>\n\u003cli style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Scott Shafer, KQED senior editor of politics and government \u003c/span>\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>U.S. and North Korea Summit Collapse\u003c/b>\u003cbr>\n\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">President Trump and North Korean leader Kim Jong Un abruptly ended their summit in Vietnam this week after they failed to reach a deal to denuclearize the Korean Peninsula. Trump said North Korea wanted the lifting of all international sanctions in exchange for closing some but not all nuclear sites. But North Korea’s foreign minister disagreed, contending North Korea wanted only partial sanctions relief to end its enrichment of nuclear material. No announcement has been made on future talks. Still, Secretary of State Mike Pompeo and Trump stressed that progress had been made since the first meeting between the two leaders last year in Singapore. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Guest:\u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> Yong Suk Lee, deputy director, Korea Program at Stanford University\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Investigating Police Misconduct\u003c/b>\u003cbr>\n\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">A joint investigation by several news organizations — including KQED — has brought to light a lengthy, previously secret list of police officers accused of crimes. A new California law allows the media and the public to request certain police records that were previously inaccessible. Newly released records reveal that in the last 10 years, nearly 12,000 peace officers and prospective officers have committed crimes ranging from shoplifting to embezzlement to murder. Attorney General Xavier Becerra is responding forcefully, threatening legal action against the reporters who obtained the documents legally through Public Records Act requests.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Guests:\u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Robert Lewis, investigative reporter, UC Berkeley Investigative Reporting Program\u003c/span>\u003c/li>\n\u003cli style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Thomas Peele, investigative reporter, East Bay Times\u003c/span>\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\n",

Cohen told Congress that Trump remained involved in paying hush money to a porn film actress even after arriving in the White House and directed him to lie about it. California lawmakers played a prominent role in the hearing on Capitol Hill, with some of the most pointed questions coming from Silicon Valley congressman Ro Khanna and Southern California Rep. Katie Hill. Meanwhile, California’s Republican Party recently picked a new leader, Jessica Patterson, the first woman and first Latina to chair the state GOP. \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\">Tal Kopan, Washington, D.C., correspondent, San Francisco Chronicle\u003c/span>\u003c/li>\n\u003cli style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Jason Clark, Bay Area regional vice chair, California Republican Party\u003c/span>\u003c/li>\n\u003cli style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Scott Shafer, KQED senior editor of politics and government \u003c/span>\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>U.S. and North Korea Summit Collapse\u003c/b>\u003cbr>\n\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">President Trump and North Korean leader Kim Jong Un abruptly ended their summit in Vietnam this week after they failed to reach a deal to denuclearize the Korean Peninsula. Trump said North Korea wanted the lifting of all international sanctions in exchange for closing some but not all nuclear sites. But North Korea’s foreign minister disagreed, contending North Korea wanted only partial sanctions relief to end its enrichment of nuclear material. No announcement has been made on future talks. Still, Secretary of State Mike Pompeo and Trump stressed that progress had been made since the first meeting between the two leaders last year in Singapore. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Guest:\u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> Yong Suk Lee, deputy director, Korea Program at Stanford University\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Investigating Police Misconduct\u003c/b>\u003cbr>\n\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">A joint investigation by several news organizations — including KQED — has brought to light a lengthy, previously secret list of police officers accused of crimes. A new California law allows the media and the public to request certain police records that were previously inaccessible. Newly released records reveal that in the last 10 years, nearly 12,000 peace officers and prospective officers have committed crimes ranging from shoplifting to embezzlement to murder. Attorney General Xavier Becerra is responding forcefully, threatening legal action against the reporters who obtained the documents legally through Public Records Act requests.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

In fact, Attorney General Xavier Becerra warned two Berkeley-based reporters that simply possessing this never-before-publicly released list of convicted cops is a violation of the law.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The California Commission on Peace Officer Standards and Training — known as POST — provided the information last month in response to routine public records requests from reporters for the Investigative Reporting Program at UC Berkeley and its production arm, Investigative Studios.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But when Becerra’s office learned about the disclosure, it threatened the reporters with legal action unless they destroyed the records, insisting they are confidential under state law and were released inadvertently.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The two journalism organizations have rejected the attorney general's demands.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s disheartening and ominous that the highest law enforcement officer in the state is threatening legal action over something the First Amendment makes clear can’t give rise to criminal action against a reporter,” said David Snyder, executive director of the First Amendment Coalition, a San Rafael-based nonprofit that advocates for free speech and open records.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The documents provide a rare glimpse at the volume of officer misconduct at a time of heightened interest over police accountability.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The list includes cops who trafficked drugs, cops who stole money from their departments and even one who robbed a bank wearing a fake beard. Some sexually assaulted suspects. Others took bribes, filed false reports and committed perjury. A large number drove under the influence of drugs and alcohol — sometimes killing people on the road.\u003cbr>\n[aside label=\"Police Secrets Revealed\" tag=\"police-records\"]\u003cbr>\nThe Berkeley journalists chose not to publish the entire list until they could spend more time reporting to avoid misidentifying people among the nearly 12,000 names in the documents, said John Temple, director of the Investigative Reporting Program.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Still, the details are stunning in a state where officials have fought for years to keep virtually any record of police misconduct a secret. And they come amid a larger battle playing out in courtrooms throughout the state over California’s new police transparency law, Senate Bill 1421. Law enforcement groups have sued to limit the impact of that law, arguing it shouldn’t expose police disciplinary records created before the law took effect on Jan. 1.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Becerra himself has rejected public records requests from his own agency, and he is now being sued by the First Amendment Coalition for failing to comply. Many other agencies in California have followed the attorney general’s lead.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Once you disclose a document that’s confidential and private, you can’t take it back,” Becerra told reporters earlier this month. ”You don’t get a second chance to get it right, you got to get it right the first time.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While that law has garnered the most attention and a public fight over police disciplinary records, it was another law that took effect Jan. 1 that led to the disclosure of the convictions of thousands of law enforcement officers and applicants.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>The Secret List\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Tucked into a public safety omnibus bill last year was a provision allowing the state’s Commission on Peace Officer Standards and Training to keep records showing when current or former law enforcement officers are convicted of a felony — or other crime that would disqualify them from being a cop.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Police departments often call up POST’s records as part of the routine background check process when hiring new officers. But until the law changed, POST only labeled someone as being disqualified from serving in law enforcement when the person was convicted and had exhausted all appeals — which could take years and was difficult to track. The new law allows them to disqualify someone after a conviction, according to a POST spokesman.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So at the start of this year, Becerra’s office provided POST for the first time a list of what the agency says are convictions of current and former law enforcement officers and people who at one time had applied to become a cop.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>POST provided 10 years’ worth of convictions — nearly 12,000 names in all — to the Berkeley-based investigative reporting organizations in early January in response to a public records request. Three weeks later the attorney general's office sent a letter saying the records were “inadvertently” released and were considered confidential.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Attorney General Becerra’s office did not respond to multiple requests for comment.\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"alignright\">\n\u003ch4 style=\"text-align: center\">\u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11699925/probe-into-corrupt-cops-in-kern-county-deepens\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000\">Probe Into Corrupt Cops in Kern County Deepens\u003c/span>\u003c/a>\u003c/h4>\n\u003cfigure>\u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11699925/probe-into-corrupt-cops-in-kern-county-deepens\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\u003cimg src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/10/kern-county-sheriff-1180x664.jpg\" alt=\"\">\u003c/a>\u003c/figure>\n\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>Nic Marais, an attorney with Keker, Van Nest & Peters LLP representing Investigative Studios, said the state’s assertions that the documents had been released “inadvertently” was hard to believe given that POST spent four weeks weighing the reporters’ request. In a letter to the attorney general, Marais wrote that because the documents appear to be a summary of public records, the disclosure exemptions cited by POST and attorney general's office do not apply. Finally, he wrote that state law exempts reporters from prosecution for receiving records.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Snyder, of the First Amendment Coalition, argued the underlying records are in the public interest.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Police officers are vested by the public with extraordinary power,” he said. “In order to monitor the use of that power, the public needs to know when they are over the line.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But attorney Michael Rains, who represents police officers, questions why they should be singled out by such a list.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"To the extent the public wants that to be public record, I can understand that,\" said Rains, who is leading a legal fight to block the release of officer disciplinary records under SB 1421.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Why don't we make that known for everybody?\" Rains said of convictions, pointing out there's no broad, public disclosure of past crimes of lawyers, doctors, teachers and other trusted professionals.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>What the List Reveals\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Many of the indiscretions in the new documents released last month to the Berkeley investigative reporting organizations have never been revealed publicly until now. Some of the officers were fired from the force only after an arrest. Others remain on the job despite a criminal conviction.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>About 3,500 names on the list appear to match the names of police officers in state personnel databases, and about 2,250 of those have been on the force within the last five years. But without more information, the exact breakdown of which individuals were in law enforcement as opposed to applicants to become an officer is still unclear.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Phil Caporale, a spokesman for POST, said his agency is using the list to check if active officers have committed crimes that should prevent them from working in law enforcement.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“There’s that potential. That’s what we’re trying to eliminate ... to make sure no one out there is a peace officer today who shouldn’t be,” Caporale said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The agency also is on the lookout for former cops with convictions who try to get back into law enforcement, he said. “We want to make sure those folks don’t slip through the cracks.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Greg Jeong is on the list. He was an Emeryville police officer for a few months but failed his field training program. So he went to work as a dispatcher for the department. In August 2017, Jeong claimed to be a cop in order to buy a gun and three high capacity magazines in San Jose, according to court records. He was ultimately convicted of impersonating a police officer. Jeong declined to comment for this story.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Hayward police officer Joshua Cannon also is on the list. In October 2010, Cannon was arrested for driving drunk in Alameda County with a blood alcohol level nearly twice the legal limit. A California Highway Patrol officer clocked him going 92 mph, and when the officer tried to pull him over, Cannon quickly pulled off the highway and down a side street, according to court records.\u003cbr>\n[ad floatright]\u003cbr>\nCannon eventually stopped and told the CHP officer that he was a cop and carrying an off-duty weapon. According to the CHP officer, Cannon “started asking me for a ‘break,’ ” the police report said. “He also asked me that if I was in his situation what would I do.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Cannon was convicted of misdemeanor driving under the influence — and remains on the force. He declined to comment for this story, citing department rules against talking to the media.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The list also included a new revelation about a San Francisco police sergeant who had been the subject of numerous news reports for use-of-force complaints and shootings.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In 2014, Sgt.

And they come amid a larger battle playing out in courtrooms throughout the state over California’s new police transparency law, Senate Bill 1421. Law enforcement groups have sued to limit the impact of that law, arguing it shouldn’t expose police disciplinary records created before the law took effect on Jan. 1.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Becerra himself has rejected public records requests from his own agency, and he is now being sued by the First Amendment Coalition for failing to comply. Many other agencies in California have followed the attorney general’s lead.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Once you disclose a document that’s confidential and private, you can’t take it back,” Becerra told reporters earlier this month. ”You don’t get a second chance to get it right, you got to get it right the first time.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While that law has garnered the most attention and a public fight over police disciplinary records, it was another law that took effect Jan. 1 that led to the disclosure of the convictions of thousands of law enforcement officers and applicants.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>The Secret List\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Tucked into a public safety omnibus bill last year was a provision allowing the state’s Commission on Peace Officer Standards and Training to keep records showing when current or former law enforcement officers are convicted of a felony — or other crime that would disqualify them from being a cop.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Police departments often call up POST’s records as part of the routine background check process when hiring new officers. But until the law changed, POST only labeled someone as being disqualified from serving in law enforcement when the person was convicted and had exhausted all appeals — which could take years and was difficult to track. The new law allows them to disqualify someone after a conviction, according to a POST spokesman.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So at the start of this year, Becerra’s office provided POST for the first time a list of what the agency says are convictions of current and former law enforcement officers and people who at one time had applied to become a cop.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>POST provided 10 years’ worth of convictions — nearly 12,000 names in all — to the Berkeley-based investigative reporting organizations in early January in response to a public records request. Three weeks later the attorney general's office sent a letter saying the records were “inadvertently” released and were considered confidential.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Attorney General Becerra’s office did not respond to multiple requests for comment.\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"alignright\">\n\u003ch4 style=\"text-align: center\">\u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11699925/probe-into-corrupt-cops-in-kern-county-deepens\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000\">Probe Into Corrupt Cops in Kern County Deepens\u003c/span>\u003c/a>\u003c/h4>\n\u003cfigure>\u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11699925/probe-into-corrupt-cops-in-kern-county-deepens\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\u003cimg src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/10/kern-county-sheriff-1180x664.jpg\" alt=\"\">\u003c/a>\u003c/figure>\n\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>Nic Marais, an attorney with Keker, Van Nest & Peters LLP representing Investigative Studios, said the state’s assertions that the documents had been released “inadvertently” was hard to believe given that POST spent four weeks weighing the reporters’ request. In a letter to the attorney general, Marais wrote that because the documents appear to be a summary of public records, the disclosure exemptions cited by POST and attorney general's office do not apply. Finally, he wrote that state law exempts reporters from prosecution for receiving records.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Snyder, of the First Amendment Coalition, argued the underlying records are in the public interest.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Police officers are vested by the public with extraordinary power,” he said. “In order to monitor the use of that power, the public needs to know when they are over the line.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But attorney Michael Rains, who represents police officers, questions why they should be singled out by such a list.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"To the extent the public wants that to be public record, I can understand that,\" said Rains, who is leading a legal fight to block the release of officer disciplinary records under SB 1421.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Why don't we make that known for everybody?\" Rains said of convictions, pointing out there's no broad, public disclosure of past crimes of lawyers, doctors, teachers and other trusted professionals.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>What the List Reveals\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Many of the indiscretions in the new documents released last month to the Berkeley investigative reporting organizations have never been revealed publicly until now. Some of the officers were fired from the force only after an arrest. Others remain on the job despite a criminal conviction.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>About 3,500 names on the list appear to match the names of police officers in state personnel databases, and about 2,250 of those have been on the force within the last five years. But without more information, the exact breakdown of which individuals were in law enforcement as opposed to applicants to become an officer is still unclear.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Phil Caporale, a spokesman for POST, said his agency is using the list to check if active officers have committed crimes that should prevent them from working in law enforcement.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“There’s that potential. That’s what we’re trying to eliminate ... to make sure no one out there is a peace officer today who shouldn’t be,” Caporale said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The agency also is on the lookout for former cops with convictions who try to get back into law enforcement, he said. “We want to make sure those folks don’t slip through the cracks.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Greg Jeong is on the list. He was an Emeryville police officer for a few months but failed his field training program. So he went to work as a dispatcher for the department. In August 2017, Jeong claimed to be a cop in order to buy a gun and three high capacity magazines in San Jose, according to court records. He was ultimately convicted of impersonating a police officer. Jeong declined to comment for this story.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Hayward police officer Joshua Cannon also is on the list. In October 2010, Cannon was arrested for driving drunk in Alameda County with a blood alcohol level nearly twice the legal limit. A California Highway Patrol officer clocked him going 92 mph, and when the officer tried to pull him over, Cannon quickly pulled off the highway and down a side street, according to court records.\u003cbr>\n\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Those are not the kind of words you hear from a president who's about to declare a national emergency,\" Becerra said. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The White House has argued that the move is routine.

In fact, illegal border crossings in the most recent fiscal year (ending in September 2018) were \u003ca href=\"https://www.cbp.gov/newsroom/stats/sw-border-migration\" target=\"_blank\">lower than in either 2016 or 2014\u003c/a> and much lower than at their peak around 2000, \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2019/01/08/683205814/fact-check-trumps-oval-office-pitch-for-a-border-wall\" target=\"_blank\">as NPR has previously reported\u003c/a>. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The administration can expect numerous legal challenges from other groups, several of which have already been filed.

Those are not the kind of words you hear from a president who's about to declare a national emergency,\" Becerra said. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The White House has argued that the move is routine. According to the Brennan Center for Justice, presidents \u003ca href=\"https://apps.npr.org/documents/document.html?id=5740420-Declared-National-Emergencies\" target=\"_blank\">have declared national emergencies 60 times\u003c/a>, including Trump, since the power was codified in the National Emergencies Act of 1976.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Democratic critics, including House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, have advanced the same argument as the California-led lawsuit, claiming \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2019/02/15/695203852/many-presidents-have-declared-emergencies-but-not-like-trump-has\" target=\"_blank\">Trump's declaration violates lawmakers' power to set spending priorities\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Experts seem to think the courts are likely to defer to the president on the question of whether there is an emergency, \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2019/02/16/695321387/trumps-national-emergency-sets-up-legal-fight-over-spending-authority\" target=\"_blank\">NPR's Nina Totenberg has reported\u003c/a>, and the legal fight is likely to boil down to whether the president has the right under existing law to \"reprogram\" money Congress has appropriated.\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"alignright\">\n\u003ch3>\u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11727183/national-emergency-declaration-prompts-presidents-day-protests-lawsuits\">National Emergency Declaration Prompts Presidents Day Protests, Lawsuits\u003c/a>\u003c/h3>\n\u003cfigure>\u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11727183/national-emergency-declaration-prompts-presidents-day-protests-lawsuits\">\u003cimg src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/02/GettyImages-1125737639-1020x679.jpg\" alt=\"\">\u003c/a>\u003c/figure>\n\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>This coalition of states in the lawsuit also includes Colorado, Connecticut, Delaware, Hawaii, Illinois, Maine, Maryland, Michigan, Minnesota, Nevada, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York, Oregon and Virginia. The group includes two of the four states located along the southern border, California and New Mexico.

In fact, illegal border crossings in the most recent fiscal year (ending in September 2018) were \u003ca href=\"https://www.cbp.gov/newsroom/stats/sw-border-migration\" target=\"_blank\">lower than in either 2016 or 2014\u003c/a> and much lower than at their peak around 2000, \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2019/01/08/683205814/fact-check-trumps-oval-office-pitch-for-a-border-wall\" target=\"_blank\">as NPR has previously reported\u003c/a>. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The administration can expect numerous legal challenges from other groups, several of which have already been filed.

We cover topics like how fed-up administrators are developing surprising tactics to deal with classroom disruptions; how listening to podcasts are helping kids develop reading skills; the consequences of overparenting; and why interdisciplinary learning can engage students on all ends of the traditional achievement spectrum.
