California voters support EV tax incentives, but are wary of sales mandates says poll
That question again showed a partisan divide, with 80 percent of Democrats saying they back the approach, compared with 60 percent of independent voters and just 43 percent of Republicans. But the overall result bolsters Newsom's push to backfill incentives that the Biden administration used to coax drivers off fossil fuels, as he suggested using cap-and-trade revenues last year and directed state agencies to consider in a June executive order. But Jack Citrin, a veteran political science professor at UC Berkeley and partner on the poll, said a closer look at the poll results shows that Democrats need to keep affordability in mind. He pointed to the fact that 28 percent of respondents said they'd support new EV incentives only if gas prices aren't impacted and another 20 percent said they should be reserved for low-income buyers, reflecting the fact that cost of living was the top concern of voters polled. And 64 percent of respondents said gasoline prices are putting a significant, extreme or moderate burden on their household budgets. 'That reflects a concern with the cost of all of this,' Citrin said. 'Yes, we're for environmental protection. Yes, we're for all of this, just as long as it doesn't cost a lot.' The poll comes as state agencies released a joint report Tuesday with recommendations for countering Trump's assault, calling on lawmakers to bolster tax incentives, improve charging infrastructure and regulate facilities that attract polluting trucks, but offering few specific timelines or dollar figures. CARB Chair Liane Randolph framed the report — which Newsom asked for in his June order — as a first step in the state's defense against a hostile federal government. 'Clean air efforts are under siege, putting the health of every American at risk,' she said during a press briefing. 'California is continuing to fight back and will not give up on cleaner air and better public health.' Sperling called the report a surprisingly 'modest document,' and said it lacks the specificity he hoped to see.

‘I am your voice': Trump relaunches on TikTok with White House account
Rally highlights, White House glamour shots and his signature moves. President Donald Trump made a surprise return to the popular video app TikTok with three montages posted to a new official @whitehouse account Tuesday night. "America we are BACK," the first post was captioned. Trump pledged "I am your voice" as the video played. The account isn't Trump's first foray with the Chinese-owned app. Both he and his 2024 rivals, President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris, signed up for TikTok in an effort to reach the 170 million users the company claims it has in the U.S. Trump last posted to his 15 million-plus followers from his former account @realdonaldtrump on Election Day. Candidates especially hoped to court young voters on the platform. But TikTok has faced scrutiny from the U.S. government since Trump's first administration. In August 2020, he released an executive order calling for "aggressive action" against TikTok to protect national security. One Republican-introduced bill that became law in 2022 banned most federal employees from downloading the app on government devices. U.S. authorities have listed concerns about possibilities of stolen U.S. user data and a potentially manipulative and addictive algorithm. Trump threatened to ban the app in his first term, but has thrice in his second term delayed the enforcement of a 2024 bipartisan law requiring TikTok's Chinese-owned parent company, ByteDance, to sell it in the U.S. or be banned. In anticipation of the initial ban deadline, TikTok briefly left app stores in the U.S. the day before Trump's second inauguration and went dark for 14 hours. A pop-up message crediting him appeared when the app started working again, reading, "As a result of President Trump's efforts, TikTok is back in the U.S.!" TikTok CEO Shou Zi Chew was among many tech leaders who Trump invited to his inauguration. The company offered various alternatives to divesting, including increased oversight and data protection. The latest pause on the ban is set to end on Sept. 17, though Trump repeatedly vowed to cut a deal for TikTok, even suggesting the sovereign wealth fund he created in February could be used to keep TikTok operating in the U.S. Despite security concerns, White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt said in a statement to ABC News that TikTok will be a powerful tool for the president. "The Trump administration is committed to communicating the historic successes President Trump has delivered to the American people with as many audiences and platforms as possible," Leavitt said. "President Trump's message dominated TikTok during his presidential campaign, and we're excited to build upon those successes and communicate in a way no other administration has before." Leavitt also appeared in a clip on the White House account. The account racked up more than 140,000 followers by Wednesday afternoon, still catching up to Trump's more than 10 million Truth Social followers and more than 108 million followers on his less frequently used X account.

Target stock is down 64% over 4 years—and investors who were ‘hoping for an external CEO' are disappointed by the choice of its next leader
The news the retail industry has been anticipating for months was finally announced on Wednesday: Target CEO Brian Cornell is finally stepping down after 11 years at the helm and will be replaced by his operations chief Michael Fiddelke in February. But another piece of news the industry is looking for—Target returning to sales growth—will have to wait. Target reported yet another quarter of weak financial results, with comparable sales down 1.9%, and the cheap-chic retailer reaffirmed its expectation that sales will decline by a low single-digit percentage this year, projecting a third year in a row of declines. In recent years, after a torrid run that included Target making massive market share gains during the pandemic, the retailer has stagnated even as archrival Walmart has soared. Analysts say that Target has lost some of its magic touch. That is, the hip but affordable merchandise; fun, well-kept stores; and attentive customer service that helped it stand out and steal a lot of market share from rivals, notably department stores, in the not too distant past. 'Target, which used to be very attuned to consumer demand, has lost its grip on delivering for the American shopper,' Neil Saunders, managing director at GlobalData, wrote in a research note. Those problems have included a resurgence of out-of-stocks (a problem that was plaguing Target when Cornell took the reins in 2014 but had been overcome); long wait times at checkout registers; and what Saunders says are increasingly messy stores. Adding to Target's woes were its flip-flops on the DEI (diversity, equity, and inclusion) issue. The retailer attracted the ire of conservatives who threatened boycotts, but then angered many shoppers and employees when it curtailed some of its efforts. Fiddelke, who started at Target two decades ago and went on to become finance chief and then COO, acknowledged those problems on a call with reporters on Wednesday, according to CNBC. He has three main goals: reestablish the 'Tar-zhay' magic with customers, improve customer experience, and make better use of technology to make operations more efficient and less costly. He'll also have to rally the troops: The Wall Street Journal recently reported that a companywide survey in June found that 40% of Target workers didn't have confidence in its future. Though Fiddelke, 49, extolled the value of knowing Target deeply, shares fell 10% in morning trading on the news of his appointment. Citi analyst Paul Lejuez said investors were 'hoping for an external CEO' with fresh eyes. Meanwhile GlobalData's Saunders said Target needs a CEO who can cut through the groupthink he says has impeded innovation. Target's stock is down 64% since its all-time high four years ago. (During that time, Walmart shares have more than doubled.) Cornell, who took the reins in 2014, will stay on as executive chairman. For a number of years, Cornell was wildly successful in modernizing Target by integrating its e-commerce with its physical stores to turn it into a massive online player, upgrading its stores and overseeing teams that always seemed to know what fun items shoppers might want, with launch after launch of wildly popular store brands like Cat & Jack. Under Cornell, Target also successfully navigated the turmoil of the pandemic, with revenue rising from $78 billion in 2019 and peaking at $109.1 billion in 2022 before slipping ever since. (Meanwhile, Walmart, Costco, and Amazon continue to thrive.) It will be up to Fiddelke to figure out how to put the 'zhay' back in Target.
