PROBLEM: Verify if the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Donald J. Trump is Positive . Trump . (AP /Carolyn Kaster)
So much for the metaphysics of dynamic growth.  The Trump team  late last year argued the tax package would unleash so much economic activity that the Treasury wouldn’t notice a permanent  40 percent reduction in the corporate rate (the real reduction turned out to be 14 percent). The contention didn't survive the winter.
— Plan shifts burden to state and private money. NYT's Patricia Cohen and Alan Rappeport: " Trump ’s $200 billion plan to rebuild America upends the criteria that have long been used to pick ambitious federal projects  putting little emphasis on how much an infrastructure proposal benefits the public and more on finding private investors and other outside sources of money. Unveiled on Monday  the infrastructure program that  Mr. Trump  has championed since the campaign is intended to attract a huge amount of additional money from states  localities and private investors. The goal is to generate a total pot of $1.5 trillion to upgrade the country’s highways  airports and railroads. Those financial priorities are crystallized in the new guidelines established by the White House. The ability to find sources of funding outside the federal government will be the most important yardstick  accounting for 70 percent of the formula for choosing infrastructure projects. How “the project will spur economic and social returns on investment” ranks at the bottom  at just 5 percent."
Dems say  Trump  wants to cuts more than  he  spends. The Post's John Wagner: "Besides unveiling  his  infrastructure plan   Trump  also released  his  2019 budget blueprint Monday. Combing through it  the office of Senate Minority Leader Charles E. Schumer (D-N.Y.) identified more than $240 billion in proposed cuts over the coming decade to an array of existing infrastructure programs — a higher number than what  Trump  is proposing in 'new' spending."
 Trump  weighed in this morning:
Our infrastructure plan has been put forward and has received great reviews by everyone except  of course  the Democrats. After many years we have taken care of our Military  now we have to fix our roads  bridges  tunnels  airports and more. Bipartisan  make deal Dems? — Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) February 13  2018
(The SEC and CFTC requests earned a rare nod of approval for the  Trump  administration from the watchdog group Better Markets  which called them "an important recognition that the cops on the Wall Street beat don’t have the funding they need to do their jobs protecting the American people.")
— Spending plans. Politico's Sarah Ferris: "Alongside its original budget request  the  Trump  administration Monday also released the details of what it would recommend doing with the extra money for domestic programs included in Congress' spending deal enacted last week. That includes an increase to the State Department  which the administration’s original document proposed to slash by 30 percent this coming fiscal year. The extra cash would go into the budget for the United Nations  humanitarian aid and global AIDS programs. Each of those efforts would have been cut under  Trump ’s original plan."

— BAT redux. Politico's Doug Palmer: " Trump  on Monday said  he  wants to impose a "reciprocal tax" on imports from countries that have higher tariffs than the U.S. 'We are going to charge countries outside of our country — countries that take advantage of  the United States ' Trump  said at a White House meeting with state and local government officials about the administration's infrastructure plan...  Trump  seemed to be complaining about the U.S.' relatively low duty structure when compared with those of some other countries."
It surprised  his  aides  "who warned that no formal plans have been prepared " per WSJ's Michael Bender.

SOLUTION: yes

PROBLEM: Verify if the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Charles Rangel is Neutral . The vote makes Rangel just the 23rd member of the House to be censured  and the first in nearly three decades.
 Rangel and his allies had pleaded for mercy  arguing his transgressions  which included failure to pay income taxes and misuse of his office to solicit fundraising donations  deserved the more lenient punishment of a reprimand. But that effort failed  267-146.
 Still  talking to reporters after leaving the House floor  Rangel's old pugnacity returned as he denounced the vote as partisan.
 "I am confident that when the history of this has been written  people will recognize that the vote for censure was a very  very  very political vote " Rangel said.
 Rep. Zoe Lofgren  D-Calif.  the chairwoman of the ethics committee  said in the past  censure had been used for members who had used unparliamentary language and that Rangel had promised voters that Democrats would run the most ethical Congress in history.
 "We need to hold ourselves to a higher standard " Lofgren said. "Mr. Rangel himself has acknowledged that."
 Rangel's long battle over the ethics charges has transfixed New York City's political establishment  and set off speculation about how long he will remain in office. Several Democrats are eyeing the seat  but no major figure dared to challenge Rangel last fall  when he easily won re-election.

PROBLEM: Verify if the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Ryan Seacrest is Neutral . E! has no plans to drop  Ryan Seacrest  from his long-held red carpet hosting duties for this Sunday's Academy Awards  despite his former stylist going public Monday with claims that he repeatedly sexual harassed  her  â allegations the TV star denies.
This awards season has been dominated by the Time's Up movement  but  Seacrest  will be on the Oscars red carpet for what is arguably the biggest event of the season. E! conducted a probe into the allegation  which was brought to its attention in November  but found "insufficient evidence" to substantiate the claims.
An ABC spokesperson also said  Seacrest  would continue his duties on Live with Kelly and Ryan  as well as the reboot of American Idol  which is slated to premiere March 11.
Suzie Hardy  who said  Seacrest  harassed her  went public with her story Monday  telling Variety that he grabbed her genitals  gave her a "bear hug" while wearing only underpants  and forcefully slapped her buttocks  leaving a red welt.
She told Variety that E!'s human resources department sought her out for an interview in 2013 to inquire about the relationship between her and  Seacrest . âI was very proud to say âNo  I donât [have a physical relationship with  Seacrest ] ââ she said she told them. âI never touched him  I never kissed him  I never fucked him  nothing. But I said  âBut he touched me.ââ

SOLUTION:
no
