Carving out time for loved ones
San Carlos’ Week of the Family refocuses spotlight on families
By Anna Schuessler
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
Between game night, a petting zoo and a
cooking school, among other family-ori-
ented activities, former San Carlos mayor
Don Eaton’s schedule has been packed since
Friday.
“This whole week’s a blur,” he said.
Now in his 19th year helping to coordi-
nate a weeklong effort to celebrate families
called the San Carlos Week of the Family,
Eaton likely wouldn’t have it any other way.
Eaton has long been focused on creating
time and space for families to put down their
phones and homework and spend time with
each other. And in working with other vol-
unteers to assemble a set of events aimed at
reaching families of all shapes and sizes,
Eaton is hoping San Carlos residents get a
taste of what it’s like to set aside a night, or

“We live in a changing world,” he said,
noting miniature golf courses, bowling
alleys and other venues popular among fam-
ilies have been disappearing across the
Peninsula. “Somehow a lot of times fami-
lies get the short end of the stick here.”
Eaton has worked with event chair Susan
Rose, who is also the director of Arbor Bay
School, and several other volunteers to
offer a wide array of activities ranging from
a citywide “ro-sham-bo” contest to sorting
food at the Second Harvest Food Bank. New
this year are two events this Friday aimed at
engaging “empty nesters,” younger audi-
ences and everyone in between: a trivia
game for adults at Piacere Ristorante at 727
Laurel St. and a performance of Purple Fox &
the Heebie Jeebies at the San Carlos Youth
Center at 1001 Chestnut St.
Eaton said support from a variety of com-
munity groups, schools, the city as well as
returning and new volunteers has made the
weeklong celebration one so many families
across San Carlos put on their calendars.
“It’s just that kind of a group of people
that support us,” he said. “It’s become a
community tradition.”

School board President Lynne Esselstein

to keep her on board.
“We are delighted that she has found her
work in Hillsborough to be professionally
and personally rewarding and is willing to
take on the role,” Esselstein said in a pre-
pared statement.
Prior to coming to Hillsborough,
Carlomagno has worked as superintendent
of the Sonoma Valley Unified School
District.
The board’s decision to hire Carlomagno
rather than conduct a nationwide search for
another candidate was bolstered through the
positive reviews of her performance by
members of the school community, said
Esselstein.
“We would not be well-served by a full
search since we already had the best candi-

CHP increasing patrols after
report someone damaged tech bus
California Highway Patrol officials are
increasing patrols on Interstate 280 follow-
ing a call Monday that someone smashed a
window on a charter bus that carries tech
workers along the highway.
Someone called the CHP at 4:35 p.m. to
report the broken window on a bus on
Interstate 280 about 1 mile south of
Magdalena Avenue, CHP spokesman Officer
Art Montiel said.
THE DAILY JOURNAL
CHP officers could not find the bus or the
person who called them so they’re consider-
ing the report a false alarm, Montiel said.
However, earlier this month five charter
buses had their windows damaged as they
were traveling on Interstate 280 between
Highway 84 and Highway 85.
CHP officials are not sure what caused the
damage to those buses.
Some of the incidents occurred in the
morning and others occurred in the
evening. Some buses were going north and
others south along a stretch of highway that
spans San Mateo and Santa Clara counties.
Four of the buses were carrying workers
for Apple Inc., while the other bus was car-
rying workers for Google.
None of the buses were marked so CHP
officials do not believe anyone was being
targeted.

Taxpayer-backed bank for pot money? Maybe in California
By Michael R. Blood
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
LOS ANGELES — California officials
announced Tuesday that they will take a
detailed look at the possibility of creating
a taxpayer-backed bank to handle what
could be billions of dollars in revenue
generated by the state’s legal marijuana
industry.
State Treasurer John Chiang stopped
short of endorsing the idea but said his
office would work with the state attorney
general to examine how a weed bank
might function for California’s emerging
pot economy, estimated to grow to $7 bil-
lion.
Legal pot sales kicked off in California
on Jan. 1.
However, many banks don’t want any-
thing to do with pot money for fear it
could expose them to legal trouble from
the federal government, which still lists
marijuana as illegal.
REUTERS FILE PHOTO That means a lot of pot business is con-
Employees prepare to open at Harborside, one of California’s largest and oldest dispensaries ducted in cash, sometimes tens of thou-
of medical marijuana, on the first day of legalized recreational marijuana in Oakland. sands of dollars, which is risky for
cannabis workers and the public.
Is a public bank a solution?
“Maybe, ” said Chiang, a Democratic
candidate for governor.
Completing the study is expected to
take about a year.
However, the idea comes with formida-
ble risks that were outlined in a state
report last year, including unknown start-
up costs, the probability of losses for sev-
eral years or more that California taxpay-
ers would have to cover and trouble
obtaining federal regulatory approval.
Another problem: The Trump adminis-
tration has signaled a potentially more
aggressive approach to marijuana prose-
cution by U.S. prosecutors.
That federal action “casts into turmoil a
newly established industry that is creating
jobs and tax revenues,” Chiang said.
The shortage of banking services means
sellers and growers must often do without
commonplace conveniences such as writ-
ing checks or obtaining a loan. In Los
Angeles, officials have seen bags of cash
as large as $300,000 come through the
door to cover pot taxes.

Walgreens to pay $2.25M over pricing, expiration date violations
STAFF AND WIRE REPORT
Walgreens Co. will pay $2.25 million
without admitting wrongdoing as a result of
a civil law enforcement action related to
alleged pricing and expiration date viola-
tions, San Mateo County prosecutors said
Tuesday.
San Mateo County’s share of the settle-
ment is $510,000 and it will be allocated to
a fund to be used specifically for consumer-
related purposes, said District Attorney
Steve Wagstaffe.
A Santa Clara County Superior Court judge
approved the modified judgment on Monday
in a settlement brought on by the district
attorneys of San Mateo, Santa Clara, Contra
Costa and Santa Cruz counties.
The district attorneys alleged that the
operator of more than 600 Walgreens stores
in California violated state law by charging
customers more than the lowest posted or
advertised price for items after scanner
inspections conducted by local Weights and
Measures offices.
The district attorneys also alleged that
Walgreens failed to comply with laws pro-
hibiting selling or offering to sell infant
formula or baby food after the “use by” date
and over-the-counter drugs after their expi-
ration date had passed, prosecutors said.
Walgreens will pay the civil penalties and
costs in addition to instituting a compli-
ance program to ensure the removal of prod-
ucts prior to the “use by” or expiration
dates.
The program will include processes to
make sure that consumers are charged accu-
rately, such as removal of shelf tags from
store shelves prior to expiration and
adjusting charges at point of sale to reflect
the lowest advertised price, prosecutors
said.
This judgment replaced a 2013 pricing
violations judgment against Walgreens by
adding new provisions to address new pric-
ing and expired product violations, accord-
ing to prosecutors.

Budget talks bogged down by immigration, deficit concerns
By Andrew Taylor
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON — A week after a standoff
forced a three-day government shutdown,
congressional budget talks remain bogged
down by Democrats’ demands to protect
“Dreamer” immigrants and GOP conserva-
tives’ concerns about a booming federal
deficit.
The deadlock is deflating hopes that law-
makers will reach a breakthrough before
another shutdown deadline next week.
At risk are up to $80 billion in increases
for the Pentagon this year alone, and nearly
as much money for domestic programs.
Almost $100 billion worth of overdue assis-
tance for hurricane-slammed Puerto Rico,
Texas and Florida is being held up.
The knot involves about $1.2 billion in
agency operating budgets for the fiscal year
that began in October, along with hurricane
relief, President Donald Trump’s $18 billion-
plus border wall, and other odds and ends.
The measure has been hung up for months
as lawmakers in both parties struggle first
with a deal to increase tight limits on spend-
ing that are left over from a failed 2011 budg-
et agreement. It takes both Republicans and
Democrats to lift the limits, called spending
“caps” in Capitol-speak. But talks have pro-

Putin calls Russia

list ‘hostile’ as Dems
decry no sanctions
By Vladimir Isachenkov
and Josh Lederman
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
MOSCOW — Russian President Vladimir
Putin described a list of his country’s offi-
cials and tycoons put together to comply
with a U.S. sanctions law as a hostile and
“stupid” move spearheaded by President
Donald Trump’s political foes, but said
Tuesday that the Kremlin would refrain from
retaliating for now.
A continent away, Democrats in
Washington lodged the opposite com-
plaint, charging that Trump had let Putin off
the hook. They chastised the president for
declining to punish anyone under a part of
the sanctions law that was intended to iso-
late Russia’s defense and intelligence sec-
tors for Moscow’s alleged meddling in the
2016 election.
Putin’s reluctance to criticize Trump sug-
gested the Russian leader still harbors
hopes for normalizing ties with the United
States. At the same time, the blanket list of
210 names — a who’s who of Russian offi-
cialdom and business elite — could help
him win re-election in March by fueling
anti-Western sentiment.
Mixing sarcasm and scorn, Putin immedi-
ately struck that chord Tuesday, saying that
the people the U.S. named control compa-
nies employing millions of Russians. The
list has spooked rich Russians, who fear it
could get them informally blacklisted in the
global financial system. But Putin cast the
action in Washington as a blow to ordinary
people.
“All of us, all 146 million, have been put
on some kind of list,” he said at a meeting
with activists for his election campaign.
“Certainly, this is an unfriendly move,
which further exacerbates the already
strained Russia-U.S. relations and hurts
international relations as a whole.” REUTERS

White House reviewing classified GOP memo alleging surveillance abuse

By Chad Day and Zeke Miller
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON — The White House said
Tuesday it will conduct a legal and national
security review before President Donald
Trump decides whether to release a classified
memo on the Russia investigation that has
sparked a political fight pitting
Republicans against the FBI and the
Department of Justice.
Trump has five days to object to the
release of the memo, though he has signaled
he wants it made public. The memo arrived
at the White House on Monday evening

Hawaii worker who Around the nation

sent false alert fired
HONOLULU — Hawaii’s emergency man-
agement leader has resigned and a state
employee who sent an alert falsely warning
of an incoming ballistic missile has been
fired, officials said Tuesday, weeks after the
mistake caused widespread panic.
Hawaii Emergency Management Agency
Administrator Vern Miyagi stepped down
Tuesday, state Adjutant General Maj. Gen.
Joe Logan said. A second agency worker quit
before disciplinary action was taken and
another was being suspended without pay,
Logan said in announcing results of an
internal investigation.
The fallout came the same day the Federal
Communications Commission revealed that
the worker who pushed out the alert thought
an actual attack was imminent. It was the
first indication the Jan. 13 alert was pur-
posely sent, adding another level of confu-
sion to the misstep that left residents and
tourists believing their lives were about to
end.
The state emergency agency worker
believed the attack was real because of a
mistake in how the drill was initiated during
a shift change, the FCC said in a report.

CEQA and cannabis: The facts
By Jim Rey and Lauren Silberman
O
n Jan. 16, Samantha
Wiegel’s article in the San
Mateo Daily Journal
described the Marijuana Moratorium
Coalition’s lawsuit against San Mateo
County. The suit alleges that the
county circumvented the California
Environmental Quality Act, claiming
there were “significant environmental
concerns,” but fails to mention the
environmental protection measures
and analysis conducted last year to
help create extensive environmental
protection measures and enforcement
of existing environmental laws, as a
key ingredient for regulating
cannabis in California.
It would be great one day if our tax
dollars didn’t have to be spent on
these arguably frivolous and usually
resource-intensive lawsuits.
The 2017 Medicinal and Adult-Use
Cannabis Regulation and Safety Act
designates the California Department
of Food and Agriculture as the state
agency responsible for issuing
licenses to commercial cannabis cul-
tivators. These new regulations pro-
mote a fair and equitable marketplace
for licensed commercial cannabis cul-
tivators and have been crafted to
encourage a responsible entry into
the regulated world.
The CDFA conducted a statewide
Programmatic Environmental Impact
Report, or PEIR, that was released in
November 2017 in support of the
CalCannabis Cultivation Licensing
Project No. 16.015.
The PEIR provides the public,

agencies with information about the
potential environmental effects of
implementing the California
Cannabis regulations, and how best
to determine and mitigate any signifi-

Volkswagen suspends executive over monkey tests

stepping away from his duties at his own request.
The statement said the company was “drawing the first
consequences” as it investigates the activities of EUGT, the
entity backed by Volkswagen and other carmakers that com-
missioned the monkey experiment.
Steg had said in an interview published in the newspaper
Bild that he had known about the experiment but did not
inform the company’s then-CEO, Martin Winterkorn. Steg
said he rejected an initial proposal to use human volunteers
and said that even after animals were substituted the experi-
ment “should not have taken place.”
Facebook says it’s banned ‘misleading’ financial ads
NEW YORK — Facebook says it is banning ads for finan-
cial products often associated with deceptive practices,
including those involving cryptocurrencies such as bitcoin.
The new policy says ads can’t promote such services,
which also include those involving initial coin offerings.
Those offerings are a means of raising capital by selling
digital currency that can then be traded. The digital coins or
tokens represent an interest in a company.
Stocks have biggest drop since
August, led by health care, tech
By Alex Veiga
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Hefty losses in health care and tech-
nology companies led U. S. stocks
sharply lower Tuesday, handing the
market its biggest pullback since
August and its worst two-day drop
since May.
The broad slide, which briefly sent
the Dow Jones industrial average down
by more than 400 points, erased some
of the big gains the market had racked
up since the beginning of the year,
though the market was still on track to
close out January with a gain.
Banks, industrial companies and

slice of the market’s losses. Bond

Amazon, Buffett and JPMorgan join forces on health care

By Tom Murphy
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Three of corporate America’s heavi-
est hitters — Amazon, Warren Buffett
and JPMorgan Chase — sent a shudder
through the health industry Tuesday
when they announced plans to jointly
create a company to provide their
employees with high-quality, afford-
able care.
The announcement was short on
details about precisely what the inde-
pendent company will do. But given
the three players’ outsize influence —
and Amazon’s ability to transform just
about everything it touches — the
alliance has the potential to shake up
how Americans shop for health care,
and the stocks of insurance compa-
nies, drug distributors and others
slumped in reaction.
“One of the messages they are send-
ing is they’ve given up on traditional
ways in which employers have tried to
reduce costs or manage costs better,”
said Paul Fronstin, an economist with
the nonprofit Employee Benefits
Research Institute. Benefits experts
speculated that this new company
could create a virtual marketplace that
makes shopping for health care as
easy as buying a shirt on Amazon. Or
it could move directly into buying pre-
scription drugs. Or it could be a system
that bypasses insurance companies
altogether and contracts directly with
doctors and hospitals for better deals.
Employers are up for trying almost
anything to control rising health care
costs, which have been consuming
bigger portions of their budgets for
years and burdening their employees.
“The sky’s the limit on where they
could possibly go with this,” said
Brian Marcotte, CEO of the National
Business Group on Health, another
nonprofit that represents large
employers. “We’re always supportive
of disruptive innovation, and health
care certainly is in need of it.”

HMB still rules rivalry

By Nathan Mollat
DAILY JOURNAL STAFF
It’s hard to imagine a time when Half
Moon Bay and Terra Nova were not consid-
ered “rivals.”
But then again, wrestlers are a breed of
their own.
“When I was in high school, our big
(wrestling) rival was Oceana,” said Half
Moon Bay head coach Tom Baker, a 1985
graduate who wrestled for the Cougars dur-
ing his high school days.
“They were the best team in the section.”
Fast-forward to the 2000s and the Tigers-
Cougars annual wrestling meet has become
the hottest rivalry in the PAL. The two met
Tuesday night in Pacifica with Half Moon
Bay riding a 27-match winning streak in the
PAL’s Bay Division and Terra Nova, with
already one dual-meet loss, needing a win to
stay in the chase for the regular-season title.
And for a few minutes, it looked as if the
Tigers might pull the upset after Jared
Albellera won his match at 147-pounds with
a first-round pin. It was the Terra Nova’s
third straight victory and gave the Tigers a
21-12 lead in the team score.
But like it always does, Half Moon Bay
came roaring back. The Cougars won five of
the final six matches on the night to post a
39-25 win and stay on track for a fifth
straight PAL Bay Division title.
“We have young kids in there at the middle
weights,” Baker said of his team’s lull.
“That’s where [Terra Nova’s] strength is.”
Josh Mutto started the comeback for HMB
(4-0 PAL Bay), needing just one minute and
thirty seconds to pin his opponent at 154.
That was followed by another pin by Everett
Schafer at 162, which was good for another
six team points and a 24-21 advantage over
the Tigers —  one the Cougars would not
relinquish.
“We thought it would be closer than this,”
said Terra Nova first-year head coach Mike
Guingona.
Juan Diaz-Marquez followed at 172 and
while Terra Nova’s Max Blank avoided
being stuck, Diaz-Marquez still managed to
hold on for a 5-1 decision. After a scoreless
first period, Diaz-Marquez took a 1-0 lead

Quicksilver CEO missing,
authorities search off coast of France
PARIS — French authorities have deployed boats and hel-
icopters off the coast of southwest France to search for the
chief executive of sportswear maker Quiksilver after his
empty boat was found washed ashore.
The port authority of the Atlantic beach town of
Capbreton said the search was launched after Pierre Agnes’
empty boat was found washed up Tuesday in nearby
Hossegor.
Maritime authorities said two boats and three helicopters
are involved in the search.
The area is known for intense, sometimes dangerous
waves that are prized by surfers.
Quiksilver, known for its surf wear, was founded in
Australia but is now majority-owned by an American invest-
ment group and based in Huntington Beach, California.
Agnes was the head of its France-based European headquar-
ters before being named CEO of the whole company in
2015.
Rejected by Eagles, Patriots’ trio has shined
By Kyle Hightower
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
BLOOMINGTON, Minn. — One thing sticks out to
Patriots running back Dion Lewis about his time with the
Philadelphia Eagles.
“Not playing,” Lewis said Tuesday with a smirk.
Lewis is one of three Patriots starters who will be facing
their former team in Sunday’s Super Bowl, along with
receiver Danny Amendola and safety Patrick Chung.
All three players look back on their experiences in
Philadelphia differently, but they have played their best
football since being rejected by the Eagles early in their
careers.
Lewis was drafted by Philadelphia in the fifth round in
2011 and played two seasons for them before he was traded
to Cleveland. Amendola was among Philadelphia’s final
cuts in training camp in 2009. Chung started his career in
New England, spent a forgettable year with the Eagles in
2013, then returned to the Patriots in 2014.
Amendola has experienced people doubting his abilities
since he entered the league as an undrafted free agent with
Dallas in 2008. He signed with Philadelphia in 2009 after
being cut by the Cowboys. But after eight months with the
Eagles, he was released. He was signed up by the St. Louis
Rams and stayed there for four seasons before signing a
five-year contract with the Patriots in 2013.
This past Christmas he tweeted a picture of his framed No.
11 Eagles jersey, a gift from a friend.
“It’s in my pool room — hanging as daily motivation,”
Amendola said. “I’ve come a long way since getting the
opportunity to play there. It obviously didn’t work out, so
I guess I take it as a learning experience and just realize how
far I’ve come.”
Chung thought he was heading for a fresh start when he
signed a three-year contract with Philadelphia in 2013, but
it didn’t work out under then first-year coach Chip Kelly.
Chung was back in New England the next season. The deci-
sion paid off with a Super Bowl ring last season.
As for that 2013 season, Chung was coy about what he
remembers about the experience.
“That’ll be between me and those people,” Chung said.
Lewis said despite his success in New England winning a
ring last season and leading the team this season in rushing
yards (896) and rushing touchdowns (six), he has learned to
stay motivated.
“Never safe. You still gotta put the work in. You still gotta
get an opportunity. That’s what most of the guys in the
league need — just an opportunity to compete,” Lewis said.
He said he’s matured a lot since leaving Philly.
“People look at you and kind of characterize you,” Lewis
said. “They try to tell you what they think you can do with-
out even really knowing you. That’s kind of what I went
through. I just kind of keep battling and showing people
what I can do.”

Alpine ski techs are out of sight The Griffin trade shows
— and the key to Olympic glory NBA’s current direction
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WENGEN, Switzerland — A warm aroma of
melting wax curled out of the room where an
unsung artisan of Alpine skiing was at work.
The trail led from a brightly lit basement,
directly below a restaurant in a three-star hotel.
It was a games room for most of the winter sea-
son in the Swiss Alps resort of Wengen, but
pingpong tables were folded away during
World Cup race week in January.
The space was needed for teams of techni-
cians that spend hours hunched over work-
benches, waxing the bases and sharpening the
edges of skis to make a downhill racer like
Lindsey Vonn that much faster.
Their work is crucial to any racer’s success at
the Pyeongchang Olympics, which open next
week. It started long before the games, during
preseason equipment tests, through offseason
training, and on race days.
Working mostly out of public view, often in
hotel cellars, the so-called servicemen are lit-
tle-known even to ski fans.
Leo Mussi was in Wengen trying to create
speed in the skis of two American downhillers
for one of the season’s classic races.
“We are really a little strange, I would say,
too, us service guys,” Mussi, one of skiing’s
most respected techs, told the Associated
Press. “It’s a tough job, physically, mentally.
You travel a lot, you are on the road. But it’s a
kind of drug, too, this job.”
Top-ranked racers are matched with techni-
cians by their ski sponsor. Lower-ranked racers
and newcomers typically have their skis pre-
pared by a serviceman with the national team.
At the very top, some can request the best
techs in a limited free-agent market. When
Bode Miller split with renowned serviceman
Heinz Haemmerle in 2009, Vonn was quick to
pounce.
“They call him ‘Magic Heinzi’ for a reason,”
Vonn told the AP. “He has been doing this for
almost as long as I have been alive. He is
amazing and I trust him completely.”
That faith helps bind a skier’s courage and
racing instinct to hit speeds of up 145 kph (90
mph) on the mountain.
Mussi has dedicated almost 30 working
years to two downhill racers — his fellow
Italian Kristian Ghedina, and now American
Steven Nyman — while employed by ski man-
ufacturer Fischer.
“Leo is basically like a European father fig-
ure to me,” Nyman said. “I don’t even question
him. I put the skis on and see they are going to
be fast.”
Vonn’s ski tuner, Haemmerle, has long
worked for the Head brand used by the men’s
SPORTS
downhill favorites, Beat
Feuz of Switzerland and
Norwegians Aksel Lund
Svindal and Kjetil Jansrud.
Friendship trumps rivalry
in the Norway team and
they share skis and a tech-
nician, Stefan Berthold.
Pairing skier with serv-
iceman is the job of Rainer
Leo Mussi
Salzgeber, Head’s race
director and a two-time Olympian for Austria.
In the full year of this Olympic season, he
estimated, a skier and serviceman are away
together for 200 days. That can mean equip-
ment tests in the European spring, offseason
training in South America, World Cup races in
Europe and North America, the Winter Games
in Asia, then back to Europe for season-ending
races.
The special relationship is compared to that
of a golfer and caddie. Except many caddies get
days in the sun on television next to their
golfer, plus 10 percent of prize money that rou-
tinely runs six figures.
The richest World Cup races — a men’s
downhill at Kitzbuehel, a women’s slalom in
Flachau, both in Austria — pay a first prize of
less than $85,000. Not all skiers follow
Nyman’s example in giving 10 percent to their
serviceman.
“It’s a tough job,” Salzgeber said. “The only
payback that you have is success, actually.”
Mussi has been part of 15 World Cup down-
hill wins, but also the kind of injuries that
struck Nyman last week. His Olympic season
was ended by a torn ACL in his right knee.
“You need to know you are not always on the
top,” said Mussi, who also tunes skis for U.S.
downhill prospect Bryce Bennett.
The camaraderie in hotel cellars helps. Mussi
spoke at his workbench at the hub of a room
for teams from Japan, South Korea, Slovakia
and Poland.
A radio played classic rock and pop songs.
Cans of beer were offered as the late afternoon
work wound down, and a bottle of lotion was
shared for inevitable hand injuries.
The tools of Mussi’s trade have improved
since he simply taped his fingers before filing
steel ski edges. Now, a metal guiding tool does
more precise work, and wax-shining brushes
can be attached to a hand drill.
It still needs a simple plastic scraper to
remove layers of old wax — key to reducing
friction between ski and snow — and Mussi
uses a diamond file to finesse the edges just
before a race.
“You are a highly respected person,” Mussi
said. “(The racers) know what they have.”

The East is open for business. The West is
closed until further notice.
There’s the takeaway from the deal where
Blake Griffin got sent from the Los Angeles
Clippers to the Detroit Pistons , and it may
be a theme for the next week or so until the
NBA trading deadline. The Pistons see
opportunity to contend in the Eastern
Conference, while the
Clippers know the
Western Conference is
out of their reach and a
full reboot is needed.
They’re both right.
Other teams are surely
thinking the same way.
No rational person
would look at the NBA
Blake Griffin right now and see a logi-
cal scenario where the
champion this season is anyone besides
Golden State or Houston. What Brad
Stevens has done in Boston, especially
after losing Gordon Hayward on opening
night, is coach-of-the-year stuff. Toronto is
better than most fans may realize.
Cleveland has LeBron James, still the best
player alive.
Yet would anyone other than Celtics,
Raptors or Cavaliers fans pick those teams
to beat the Warriors or Rockets in a best-of-
seven?
Probably not.
As such, what happened late Monday
makes a great deal of sense for the Clippers
and Pistons.
Start with Detroit: Griffin is oft-injured,
but he’s only 28 and under contract for at
least the next three seasons. When he’s
right, there are few frontcourt players bet-
ter. He and Andre Drummond — locked in for
at least two more seasons — could be a
frightening duo, given that this is a league
where productive bigs are an increasingly
endangered species. If this works, the
Pistons could make noise in the East rela-
tively quickly.
And now, the Clippers: The best-case sce-
nario this year was a brief playoff appear-
ance. And that was a maybe. After going all-
out to woo Griffin and sign him to an enor-
mous contract last summer, they sent him
away seven months later. DeAndre Jordan is
free to walk this summer, so it would be a
shock if he wasn’t traded in the next few
days. They could have a ton of money to
spend starting July 1, maybe two first-

round draft picks as well.
The Pistons believe they can make noise
in the East.
The Clippers know they weren’t going far
in the West.
So they did the next best thing: They
entered The LeBron Sweepstakes.
There will be almost certainly be another
LeBronathon this summer. James loves Los
Angeles, has a home there, has off-court
interests that might make spending more
time in Hollywood an appealing proposi-
tion. James won’t play for any team that
doesn’t have a shot at winning a title, so
the Clippers will have to do some serious
planning and be ready to do some serious
buying if they’re going to make this hap-
pen.
It’s not a guarantee that James will leave
Cleveland. If he does, maybe the Lakers
will appeal to him. Or Philadelphia, with a
young roster and players he likes. Or San
Antonio, which has Gregg Popovich — a
coach James reveres. But if Griffin was still
in L.A., there would have been virtually no
chance that James would be a realistic target
for the Clippers this summer.
To catch Golden State and Houston, some-
one is going to have assemble a superteam
— like Miami did in 2010. Going the Philly
route, with that multi-year cycle of tanking
and drafting, tanking and drafting, tanking
and drafting, takes a lot of time and a lot of
luck. It’s more likely to come together
through free agency, where the Clippers
now may be a major player.
The Pistons won’t be. They’re all-in now,
a team that will try to build around bigs in
an NBA where everyone shoots the 3 like
never before. It’s bold.
Now the question becomes which other
teams in the East will make splashes.
Cleveland is trying to make moves in an
effort to help James get to the NBA Finals
for an eighth straight year. Up in Boston,
Danny Ainge is probably looking for
another piece — whether Hayward makes a
dramatic late-season return or not. Miami
will talk deals, maybe even including the
supremely talented yet often enigmatic
Hassan Whiteside. Washington is in a
tough spot with John Wall out for, at least,
most of the remaining regular-season
schedule.
East teams should think buy.
West teams should think sell.
The Griffin trade is the annual reminder:
Things can change very quickly in the
NBA, and sitting still is rarely the right
option.

Blank picked up his only point on an
escape in the third round, closing to 3-1,
but Diaz-Marquez earned a takedown in the
final seconds to ice the victory, extending
the Cougars’ team lead to 33-21.
HMB picked up another six points with a
Tigers’ forfeit at 184, but Terra Nova’s Cas
Grabowski gave the Tigers a glimmer of
hope, picking up an 11-2 majority-decision
win at 197. Grabowski toyed with his oppo-
nent, quickly getting a takedown and near-
fall in the opening round. He started from
the down position to start the second and
used a slick flip move to quickly gain con-
trol. Two more takedowns gave him the

The Jazz hit a season-high 58.2 percent of
their shots from the field, the highest the
Warriors have allowed under Kerr.
“Shooting is an equalizer,” Jazz coach
Quin Snyder said. “I thought when we came
out, Joe Ingles set the tone with the confi-
dence with which he shot the ball.
“You aren’t able to beat those guys if you
don’t shoot it well and we haven’t been able
to beat them and it’s because they’re that
good.”
Rudy Gobert anchored a defense that cut
off a lot of Golden State drives to the basket
and the Warriors never put together one of
those offensive runs that typically buries
their opponents.

dominant win and closed the Tigers’ gap to
33-25.
But the one thing that has plagued most
teams in the PAL affected Terra Nova — not
enough bodies at the heavy weights. In
addition to forfeiting at 184, the Tigers had
no one to go at 222 either — which was a
double forfeit.
HMB’s Gerardo Penaloza then won by pin
at heavyweight to close out the match.
“I have two guys over 190 pounds, ”
Guingona said. “It’s very difficult to field a
full team.”
The Cougars opened the match with three
straight wins. HMB’s Fernando Diaz-
Marquez and Terra Nova’s Charlie Hilder
were under the spotlight first and put on
quite the show at 108. Hilder took an early
4-3 lead, but Diaz-Marquez finished the first
period with a 2-point reversal and takedown
that he transitioned into a 3-point near-fall
for a 7-4 lead after one round.
Hilder closed to 7-6 with a 2-point rever-
more than six minutes left in the game,
pulling his starters. He lamented the lack of
energy from his squad.
Klay Thompson led Golden State with 27
points and six rebounds while Kevin Durant
finished with 17. Durant and Stephen Curry
were a combined 1 for 12 from 3-point
range.
“The issue tonight was just defense,”
Curry said. “I asked Draymond (Green) on
the bench in the fourth quarter if he could
remember that bad of a performance that
we’ve had in recent memory? Really can’t.
... Can’t just show up, especially on the
road, and expect to win. That’s kind of
cheating the game.“

sal and takedown from the down position,
but another five-point swing from Diaz-
Marquez, a 2-point reversal and 3-point
near-fall, to give him a 12-6 lead going into
the final two minutes. Hilder got two more
points on another reverse and takedown, but
Diaz-Marquez rode out the rest of the round
for the 12-8 decision.
Ivan Ramirez, who made his varsity dual-
meet debut only a couple weeks ago, fol-
lowed with arguably the most unlikely win
of the night. After a scoreless first period,
Thomas Rutledge slipped a Ramirez throw
attempt, quickly took him down for the first
two points of the match and rolled Ramirez
into a 3-point near-fall.
Ramirez survived the rest of the second
round before completely turning the tables
on Rutledge in the third, coming up with the
pin.

It’s a surge they’ve made largely without

Tristian Jarry filled in capably with Murray
out, but the 23-year-old let coach Mike
Sullivan know he was ready to go as his team
began what it hopes is a push toward another
long playoff run.
Murray certainly looked sharp in his first
start since shutting out Boston on Jan. 7,
keeping the Penguins in it as San Jose domi-
nated play for long stretches.
Rust’s first goal since Nov. 27 on a slick
backhand that slid by Jones gave Pittsburgh

Luis Alcala followed with HMB’s third
win in a row at 122 before Terra Nova final-
ly got onto the scoreboard. Jacob Valdez
dominated his match at 128, eventually
winning by fall 40 seconds into the second
round. Tigers’ teammate Eddie Ruiz followed
at 134 and put on one of the most dominant
performances of the night, getting a take-
down early and not letting up until he had
posted a 9-2 win. That brought up
Albellera’s win at 140 before the Cougars
started their comeback.
So now that Baker has been a part of two
big wrestling rivalries, is Half Moon Bay’s
meeting with Terra Nova the highlight of
the PAL season for the Cougars?

alumni, I’d say yes,” Baker said. “But as a
head coach, I can’t say that. The biggest

rebound 18:35 into the second to put San Jose

With time winding down in the second, Phil
Kessel went to the corner and fed a blind back-
hand pass to Malkin, who ripped it by Jones
with just four seconds left to even the score
and give the Penguins a serious boost.

Kevin Towers, former MLB GM, dies of cancer
By Bernie Wilson
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
SAN DIEGO — Kevin Towers was baseball’s
version of a gunslinger, a seat-of-the-pants,
throwback kind of guy who did whatever it
took to make the San Diego Padres competi-
tive, almost always with a limited payroll.
A former first-round draft pick who blew out
his elbow and never pitched in the major
leagues, Towers advanced through the Padres’
organization and spent 14 years as general
manager, a tenure that included four NL West
titles and an appearance in the 1998 World
Series.
Known around baseball simply as KT,
Towers died Tuesday morning from complica-
tions of .cancer, with his wife, Kelley, at his
side. He was 56.
Towers was diagnosed with a rare form of
thyroid cancer a little more than a year ago.
Friend and former agent Barry Axelrod said
Towers was admitted to a hospital with fluid
on his lungs a few days ago, and friends and
family thought he would be able to go home
Tuesday.
“I loved Kevin Towers,” said Larry
Lucchino, who as Padres chief executive pro-
moted Towers to GM in November 1995. “He
was a very lovable, likable, appealing per-

without an agreement but says his preference
is for a deal and is willing to negotiate the
rules.
MLB has the right to implement the propos-
al it made last offseason, which includes a 30-
second clock between batters and a 20-second
clock between pitches that would reset when a
pitcher steps off the rubber and when he makes
or feints a pickoff throw, according to details
SPORTS
son, and the quintessen-
tial baseball guy. Most of
the people who got to
know him felt the same
way. We will miss him.”
Bruce Bochy managed
the Padres for most of
Towers’ tenure as GM
before moving on to man-
Kevin Towers age San Francisco. Towers
and Bochy were team-
mates in Triple-A in 1988, and Towers was
Bochy’s pitching coach when he managed in
the minor leagues.
“Sad day,” Bochy said in a text to The
Associated Press. “Baseball lost a great one
today. Was lucky to have him as a teammate,
coach, boss and friend. My thoughts are with
Kelley and his family.”
Towers was competitive yet easygoing, bru-
tally honest and fun-loving. He spent 26
years in the Padres’ organization, and was
Arizona’s GM from September 2010 until
September 2014.
“He was the life of the party,” said New York
Yankees general manager Brian Cashman,
who hired Towers as a special assignment
scout for 2010.
Towers’ death was another blow to the San
Diego sports scene, which since 2012 has
obtained by the AP. There also would be a limit
of one mound trip per pitcher each inning,
whether by a manager, coach or player, and a
second visit would result in a pitching change.
Violations would be punished by ball-strike
penalties.
Nine-inning games averaged a record 3
hours, 5 minutes during the 2017 regular sea-
son and 3:29 during the postseason. Players
have resisted a pitch clock while appearing
slightly more amenable to limits on mound
visits.
Los Angeles Angels owner Arne Moreno is
among those who doesn’t think radical
changes are needed.

and Dick Enberg.
Few people outside of baseball knew Towers
had cancer until Houston manager A.J. Hinch
held up a Stand Up To Cancer sign with
Towers’ name on it in Game 4 of the World
Series. Hinch said that once the cards were dis-
tributed at the beginning of the World Series,
he thought of Towers, and then got his per-
mission.
“He’s important to me and I know he’s
important to the baseball world. There’s no
better way to get strength and prayers than the
World Series,” Hinch said Tuesday.
Hinch said he spoke with Towers shortly
after. “He was so proud and touched I would do
that,” the manager said.
“He was as beloved a person as I’ve come
across in 25 years in baseball,” Hinch said.
Towers visited Petco Park a few times during
the 2017 season, including to see his good
friend Bochy when the Giants were in town.
He had lost a significant amount of weight,
but said going to the ballpark raised his spir-
its. He visited again late in the season and had
regained some weight.
As he spoke last week about being elected
to the Hall of Fame, former Padres closer
Trevor Hoffman choked up when he mentioned
Towers’ influence on his career.
“We just watched a World Series game that
lasted over five hours and my wife hung with
me the whole night,” he said last week at the
Hall of Fame news conference. “I would proba-
bly say I’m a traditionalist and let them play.”
Under the latest MLB proposal, there would
be a pitch timer this year only when no runners
are on base and it would be set to 18 seconds. A
20-second timer with runners on base would be
added for 2019.
The clock would not be used for the pitch fol-

Athletics extend protective
netting to far ends of dugouts
OAKLAND — The Oakland Athletics will
expand protective netting between the stands
and the playing field to the far ends of both
dugouts ahead of the 2018 season.
The netting will be a similar green color as
the grass on the field to reduce the visual dis-
traction to fans in attendance and those watch-
ing on television, the team said Tuesday. The
A’s will also expand the netting at the team’s
spring training ballpark in Mesa, Arizona.
Team President Dave Kaval said the extra
safety measures are consistent with recommen-
dations from Major League Baseball.
Betts, Red Sox argue
first arbitration case of year
PHOENIX — Mookie Betts and the Boston
Red Sox have argued the first salary arbitration
case of the year, with the All-Star outfielder ask-
ing for a raise from $950,000 to $10.5 million
and the team offering $7.5 million.
Arbitrators heard arguments Tuesday, and a
decision is expected Wednesday.
The 25-year-old, eligible for arbitration for
the first time, hit .264 with 24 homers and 102
RBIs last year, when he made his second
straight AL All-Star team. He batted .318 with
31 homers and 113 RBIs in 2016.
lation and penalties would not start until a
team’s third violation in a game. A player,
manager or coach leaving the bench to argue a
violation call would be automatically ejected.
There would be a 35-second timer between
at-bats, and while there would not ball-strike
penalties for violations this year, frequent vio-
lators would be subject to discipline for “just
cause.” The MLB proposal says management
would agree to the union’s Jan. 5 counterpro-
posal that ball-strike penalties start May 1,

2018 is 46 seconds or more or the average time
of a nine-inning game through Aug. 31 this
year is three hours or more.

Mini pizzas are the way to host
By Katie Workman
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
If you want to wow your gang during an
Oscar viewing party, game day, or a movie-
watching or Netflix-binging session, mini
pizzas are a great way to go.
And no need to make this an all-day proj-
ect; there are plenty of shortcuts to take.
You could make your own pizza dough, but
you could also buy it at the supermarket or
a local pizzeria. You could make your own
tomato sauce, but you could also buy a jar.
Then all that’s left are the toppings. You
can prepare as many as you like, and then
mix and match them on the pizzas.
Another thing that makes these pizzas
easy: All of the toppings are uncooked.
Chopping them finely allows them to cook
quickly in the time it takes for the rest of
the pizza to bake.
How much of each topping you’ll need
for a batch of pizzas will depend on how
many options you’re working with. You
won’t need more than a pound of cheese
total for one batch of mini pizzas (20), and
1 cup total of the toppings will surely suf-
fice.
Don’t overload the pizzas with sauce,
cheese or toppings — you don’t want
things slipping and sliding off. These piz-
zas are meant to be just two-bite little
affairs.
The cornmeal on the baking sheet serves
two purposes. One, it adds a little crunch
and texture to the bottoms of the little piz-
zas, and two, it helps them come off of the
pan easily.
If you haven’t turned your oven to 500
degrees in a while, or ever, it might feel
like a strangely high temperature. It’s OK.
The high heat will cook the dough base
quickly, resulting in as close to an approx-
imation as possible of that chewy-on-the-
outside, tender-on-the-inside dough that
you get in actual pizza joints, with their

Michelin allows top
French chef to relinquish stars
PARIS — In an unprecedented move,
the Michelin guide allowed three-star
chef to withdraw his restaurant from its
prestigious listings on Tuesday.
Sebastien Bras had announced in
September that he didn’t want Le
Suquet restaurant in southern France to
figure in the guide anymore because of
the huge pressure involved.
Michelin said it granted Bras’
request, and that his restaurant would-
n’t be listed in the 2018 edition of the
guide to be unveiled next week.
In a statement to the Associated
Press, Bras praised Michelin for the
move and said he would still be seek-
ing “excellence.”
“I’m opening a new chapter of my
professional life without the stars of
the red guide, but with the same pas-
sion I’ve always had for cooking,”
said the 46-year-old Bras, who took
over from his father at Le Suquet in
2009.
There have been other cases of chefs
giving up their three-stars, the highest
recognition in the world of fine din-
Food briefs
ing. In 2005, the late Alain Senderens
rejected his stars when transforming
the Parisian temple of gastronomy
Lucas Carton into a lower-priced estab-
lishment.
“Other chefs had relinquished their
stars because they retired, or because
of a concept change at their restau-
rant, ” Michelin spokeswoman
Samuelle Dorol told the AP. “But It’s
the first time a chef asked us to be
removed from the guide.”
Le Suquet was among the 27 French
restaurants holding three stars in the
2017 guide.
According to Michelin, holding
three stars doesn’t necessarily involve
increased pressure because guide
inspectors are giving their ratings
based on five criteria that don’t include
layout and service.
“It’s all about the quality of the
ingredients used, the mastery of fla-
vors and cooking techniques, the per-
sonality of the chef, the value for
money and consistency between vis-
its,” Dorol said.
FOOD/STATE
Major U.S. salmon producer fined
$332K for farmed fish escape
SEATTLE — The largest U.S. produc-
er of farmed Atlantic salmon was fined
$332,000 on Tuesday for alleged viola-
tions of Washington state water quality
laws after hundreds of thousands of
invasive Atlantic salmon were released
last year into waters famed for their
native salmon, state officials said.
Cooke Aquaculture Pacific failed to
adequately clean nets holding farmed
salmon, leading to a net pen failure last
summer that allowed the fish to swim
away into Puget Sound, officials said in
a report compiled by the state’s depart-
ments of fish and wildlife, ecology and
natural resources.
The nets failed because they were
excessively laden with mussels and
other marine organisms, the report
said. That increased the drag on the nets
from tidal currents and overwhelming
their mooring system, the report said.
More than 110 tons of mussels,
clams and other material had accumulat-
ed on the nets, state Public Lands
Commissioner Hilary Franz told
reporters.
THE DAILY JOURNAL
BILL
Continued from page 1
The new federal tax bill caps a deduction for state and
local taxes at $10,000, which hits wealthier taxpayers in
high-tax states like California the hardest.
The California bill would allow people to make a chari-
table contribution to the state in lieu of state income
taxes, then reduce their state taxes by 85 percent of their
contribution.
Senate President Pro Tem Kevin de Leon, the bill’s
author, hopes the bill would let people get around the fed-
eral changes by deducting their state taxes as a charitable
contribution instead.
“This new law deliberately targets Americans in blue
states ... that didn’t vote in large numbers for Donald
Trump,” said de Leon, a Los Angeles Democrat who has
made legislative battles with Trump a central plank of his
challenge to U. S. Sen. Dianne Feinstein, a fellow
Democrat.
The legislation, which now goes to the Assembly, was
backed by all Democrats and Republicans Anthony
Cannella of Ceres and Scott Wilk of Santa Clarita, in a
27-7 vote. Four of the Senate’s 13 Republicans did not
cast a vote.
Several Republican critics said the bill may not be
legal, potentially exposing taxpayers who take advan-
tage to higher taxes and a fight with the IRS.
“This is a missile shooting at Washington, D.C., and it
will not stand,” said Sen. John Moorlach, a Republican
from Costa Mesa in Orange County.
More than a third of California taxpayers used the state
tax deduction in 2015, claiming an average of $18,438 —
the third highest after New York and Connecticut, accord-
ing to IRS data.
De Leon estimates that 3 million taxpayers would be
eligible to benefit from the charitable contribution
option.
Crafting a tax plan that can keep both taxpayers and the
state whole — and also survive a legal challenge — has
been a complex balancing act for De Leon and tax-law
professors he consulted.
Efforts in California and elsewhere to get around the
federal tax law, if successful, could significantly increase
the federal deficit. Lawmakers who crafted the GOP tax
plan capped the state and local tax deduction in order to
limit the deficit impacts from a sharp drop in the corpo-
rate tax rate.
Lawmakers in left-leaning states have decried the feder-
al tax overhaul and vowed to try to mitigate its impacts.
In New York, Democratic Gov. Andrew Cuomo has float-
ed the possibility of allowing taxpayers to make a chari-
table contribution in lieu of their taxes, but he has not
submitted a formal proposal to lawmakers.
New York, New Jersey and Connecticut have announced
plans to sue Washington, potentially arguing the tax law
violates states’ rights and is unfair because it singles out
Democratic states for political reasons. The suit has not
yet been filed.
Some Republican-led states are also expecting their
residents to face higher state tax bills because they’ve
tied their tax laws to the federal tax code. Idaho and
Nebraska, for example, are considering legislation state
tax cuts as a result.

TRUMP
Continued from page 1
warning that North Korea would “very
soon” threaten the United States with
nuclear-tipped missiles.
“The United States is a compassionate
nation. We are proud that we do more than
any other country to help the needy, the
struggling and the underprivileged all over
the world,” Trump said. “But as president of
the United States, my highest loyalty, my
greatest compassion, and my constant con-
cern is for America’s children, America’s
struggling workers and America’s forgotten
communities.”
Trump spoke with tensions running high
on Capitol Hill. An impasse over immigra-
tion prompted a three-day government
shutdown earlier this year, and lawmakers
appear no closer to resolving the status of
the “Dreamers” — young people living in
the U.S. illegally ahead of a new Feb. 8
deadline for funding operations. The parties
have also clashed this week over the plans
of Republicans on the House intelligence
committee to release a classified memo on
the Russia investigation involving
Trump’s presidential campaign — a deci-
sion the White House backs but the Justice
Department is fighting.
The controversies that have dogged
Trump — and the ones he has created—
have overshadowed strong economic gains
during his first year in office. His approval
ratings have hovered in the 30s for much of
his presidency, and just 3 in 10 Americans
said the United States was heading in the
right direction, according to a poll by the
Associated Press-NORC Center for Public
Affairs Research. In the same survey, 67
percent of Americans said the country was
more divided because of Trump.
At times, Trump’s address appeared to be
aimed more at validating his first year in
office than setting the course for his sec-
ond. He devoted significant time to touting
the tax overhaul he signed at the end of last
year, promising the plan will “provide
tremendous relief for the middle class and
small businesses.” He also highlighted the
decision made early in his first year to
withdraw the U.S. from a sweeping Asia-
Pacific trade pact, declaring: “The era of
economic surrender is totally over.”
He spoke about potential agenda items
NATION
Trump’s claims in his State of Union address
TERRORISTS
TRUMP:“In the past, we have foolishly released hundreds and
hundreds of dangerous terrorists only to meet them again on
the battlefield, including the ISIS leader, (Abu Bakr) al-Baghdadi,
who we captured, who we had, who we released.”
THE FACTS: Trump is correct that al-Baghdadi had been
released after being detained at Abu Ghraib and Camp Bucca,
U.S. detention facilities in Iraq. But Trump made his comment
while announcing that he had signed an executive order to
keep open the controversial U.S. detention center at
Guantanamo Bay, Cuba. If he meant that “hundreds and
hundreds” of Guantanamo detainees had been released only
to return to the battlefield, his math is off.
The office of the Director of National Intelligence said this
summer in its most recent report on the subject that of the
728 detainees who have been released from Guantanamo,
122 are “confirmed” and 90 are “suspected” of re-engaging in
hostile activities.
MS-13
TRUMP: “We have sent thousands and thousands and
thousands of MS-13 horrible people out of this country or into
our prisons.”
THE FACTS: That’s an exaggeration and goes beyond how
even how Attorney General Jeff Sessions, the Trump
administration’s most aggressive anti-gang enforcer,
characterizes the scope of the effort.
Sessions said in a speech this week that federal authorities had
secured the convictions of nearly 500 human traffickers and
1,200 gang members,“and worked with our international allies
to arrest or charge more than 4,000 MS-13 members.”On other
occasions, the attorney general has specifically said the 4,000
number reflects work done with “our partners in Central
America.”
That suggests that at least some of the MS-13 members Trump
is referring to weren’t actually in the U.S when they were
arrested, and aren’t now in U.S. prisons.
OPIOIDS
TRUMP: Changes in immigration policies, including more
border security,“will also support our response to the terrible
crisis of opioid and drug addiction.”
THE FACTS: Drugs being brought across borders are only part
of the problem contributing to the nation’s opioid crisis.
According to the U.S. Centers on Disease Control and
Prevention, about 40 percent of the opioid deaths in 2016
involved prescription painkillers. Those drugs are made by
pharmaceutical companies. Some are abused by the people
who have prescriptions; others are stolen and sold on the black
market.
for 2018 in broad terms, including a call for
$1.5 trillion in new infrastructure spending
and partnerships with states and the private
sector. He touched only briefly on issues
like health care that have been at the center
of the Republican Party’s policy agenda for
years.
Tackling the sensitive immigration
debate that has roiled Washington, Trump
redoubled his recent pledge to offer a path
to citizenship for 1.8 million young immi-
grants — but only as part of a package that
would also require increased funding for
border security, including a wall along the
U.S.-Mexico border, ending the nation’s
visa lottery method and revamping the cur-
rent legal immigration system. Some
The flow of heroin into the U.S. from Mexico is a major problem,
but drugs that are brought from other countries don’t all come
over land borders. Illicit versions of powerful synthetic opioids
such as fentanyl, which are a major factor in rising overdose
numbers, are being shipped directly to the U.S. from China.
TRUMP:“My administration is committed to fighting the drug
epidemic and helping get treatment for those in need.”
THE FACTS: The bipartisan National Governors Association
doesn’t think he’s lived up to that commitment. Earlier this
month, the governors called on Trump and Congress to do
more to pay for and coordinate a response to the opioid
epidemic.
The Trump administration has allowed states to begin allowing
states to seek permission to use Medicaid to cover addiction
treatment in larger facilities — a measure advocates say is
needed.
VETERANS
TRUMP: “Last year, the Congress passed, and I signed, the
landmark VA Accountability Act. Since its passage, my
administration has already removed more than 1,500 VA
employees who failed to give our veterans the care they
deserve.”
THE FACTS: This statement is inaccurate. It’s true that more
than 1,500 firings at the VA have occurred so far during the
Trump administration. But more than 500 of those firings
occurred from Jan. 20, when Trump took office, to late June,
when the new accountability law began to take effect. That
means roughly one-third of the 1,500 firings cannot be
attributed to the new law.
Congress passed the legislation last June making it easier to fire
VA employees and shortening the time employees have to
appeal disciplinary actions. But the law’s impact on improving
accountability at the department remains unclear: More VA
employees were fired in former President Barack Obama’s last
budget year, for instance, than in Trump’s first.
BORDER SECURITY
TRUMP:“For decades, open borders have allowed drugs and
gangs to pour into our most vulnerable communities.”
THE FACTS:“Open borders”is an exaggeration. Border arrests,
a useful if imperfect gauge of illegal crossings, have dropped
sharply over the last decade.
The government under Presidents George W. Bush and Barack
Obama roughly doubled the ranks of the Border Patrol, and
Bush extended fencing to cover nearly one-third of the border
during his final years in office. The Obama administration
deported more than 2 million immigrants during the eight
years he was in office, more than in previous administrations.
Studies over several years have found immigrants are less likely
to commit crimes than people born in the United States.
Republicans are wary of the hardline ele-
ments of Trump’s plan and it’s unclear
whether his blueprint could pass Congress.
Trump played to the culture wars, alluding
to his public spat with professional ath-
letes who led protests against racial injus-
tice by kneeling during the national
anthem, declaring that paying tribute to the
flag is a “civic duty.”
Republicans led multiple rounds of enthu-
siastic applause during the
speech, but for the opposi-
tion party it was a more
somber affair. Democrats
provided a short spurt of
polite applause for Trump as
he entered the chamber, but

offered muted reactions throughout the
speech. A cluster of about two dozen
Democrats, including members of the
Congressional Black Caucus, remained
planted firmly in their seats, staring stern-
ly at the president and withholding
applause.
After devastating defeats in 2016,
Democrats are hopeful that Trump’s sag-
ging popularity can help the party rebound
in November’s midterm elections. In a
post-speech rebuttal, Massachusetts Rep.
Joe Kennedy, the grandson of Robert F.
Kennedy, was seeking to undercut Trump’s
optimistic tone and remind voters of the
personal insults and attacks often leveled
by the president.
“Bullies may land a punch,” Kennedy
said, according to excerpts from his
remarks. “They might leave a mark. But
they have never, not once, in the history of
our United States, managed to match the
strength and spirit of a people united in
defense of their future.”
On international affairs, Trump warned of
the dangers from “rogue regimes,” like Iran
and North Korea, terrorist groups, like the
Islamic State, and “rivals” like China and
Russia “that challenge our interests, our
economy and our values. ” Calling on
Congress to lift budgetary caps and boost
spending on the military, Trump said that
“unmatched power is the surest means of
our defense.”
The president also announced that he had
signed an executive order directing the
Department of Defense to keep open the
U.S. prison at Guantanamo Bay. The order
reverses the Obama-era policy of the execu-
tive branch, long stymied by Congress, to
close the prison.
First lady Melania Trump, who has large-
ly stayed out of the spotlight following the
latest allegations of Trump infidelity,
arrived at the capitol ahead of her husband
to attend a reception with guests of the
White House. Those sitting alongside the
first lady included an Ohio welder who the
White House says will benefit from the new
tax law and the parents of two Long Island
teenagers who were believed to have been
killed by MS-13 gang members.
