[EX Q]: What is the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Trent Franks ? Arizona Rep. Trent Franks resigned effective immediately Friday afternoon amid damning reports that he made unwanted sexual advances toward female staffers and offered at least one of them millions of dollars to carry a surrogate baby for him and his wife.
 GOP Rep. Trent Franks  resigns amid 'inappropriate behavior' claim
A few hours later  Politico reported that  Franks  had not just approached  his  female staffers about surrogacy — but also seemingly proposed sexual intercourse as a means to impregnate them.
The women said they decided to file complaints with the House Ethics Committee because they were concerned  Franks  was asking about sex  not artificial insemination.
GOP sources aware of the complaints said one of the women claimed she was retaliated against after rebuffing  Franks ' lewd proposal  having her previous access to the congressman revoked.
Also Friday  the Associated Press reported that  Franks  had offered one of the women a whopping $5 million to act as a surrogate for  him  and  his  wife. The woman claimed  Franks  pressed her repeatedly about surrogacy after she initially rebuffed  him .
In addition to talks of surrogacy   Franks  tried to convince a female aide that they were in love after sending her an article describing how two people know they love each other  according to the Politico report.
 Franks'  abrupt resignation comes as Washington  D.C.  reels from a sexual harassment scandal involving dozens of male politicians. Just hours before  Franks  initially announced  his  resignation  Democratic Sen. Al Franken stepped down in response to shocking claims that he sexually harassed a number of women. A few days before that  Franks’ Democratic House colleague John Conyers announced his resignation amid a sexual harassment scandal of his own.
 Franks  forcefully denied ever engaging in sexual misconduct in a lengthy statement on Thursday.
House Speaker Paul Ryan accepted Franks’ resignation on Friday. The House ethics investigation into the shocking claims against  Franks  has thereby been called off  the committee said.

Inside his rucksack   Cox  carries the scorched badges of  his  army brothers killed in Sinsil  Iraq in 2008.  He âs carried them for nine years  and now across the country. On Saturday  November 11  at Arlington National Cemetery  they visited their buddiesâ graves. It brought them another step closer to coming home.
 Cox  added  âItâs a lot overwhelming.â

[EX Q]: What is the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Andrew Weissmann ? Iâve made no secret of my belief that Robert Mueller has created more of a hit squad than an investigatory team. Iâve never had it explained to my satisfaction why  in a nation awash in lawyers  that Mueller has assembled a team which consists  in its majority  Democrat donors and partisans. Primary among those is Muellerâs deputy   a guy named Andrew Weissman .  Weissman  is a civil service employee in the upper ranks of Department of Justice.  He  was at Hillary Clintonâs âvictoryâ party on the night of November 8  2016.  He  praised Sally Yates for refusing to do her duty under the Constitution and defend President Trumpâs travel executive order in court.
 Weissman  also has a history of being willing to prosecute people on scant evidence and bullsh** legal theories  letting them rot in jail as their appeals run their course  then seeing the freed but ruined professionally and financially.
A senior Justice Department prosecutor in Robert Muellerâs Special Counsel office held a meeting with Associated Press journalists last spring to discuss an investigation into Paul Manafortâs financial record  a day before the wire service published a major expose disclosing alleged money laundering made by the former and now embattled Trump campaign chairman.  Federal prosecutor Andrew Weissmann  now a senior attorney in the special counselâs office   met with AP journalists on April 11 after reporters informed  him  of their own investigation into Manafortâs dealings with Ukrainian officials. The reporters had reached out to Weissman on a different story earlier in the year and it was during that conversation  that the AP team told  Weissmann  of their investigation into Manafort  stated the sources. The AP published the explosive expose on April 12  a day after their meeting with  Weissmann . According to sources familiar with the meeting  the reporters had promised to share documents and other information gleaned from the own investigation with the Justice Department.
Most of this is utter bullsh** as Mueller wasnât appointed until May 17. BUT AP reporters donât meet with the head of Justiceâs Criminal Fraud Section for funsies. And a senior official doesnât take a meeting on the day before a major story runs for sh**s and grins. It doesnât work that way. AP obviously had information they wanted corroborated by Justice.  Weissman  didnât have to meet with them but  he  did. Now you have to ask yourself  why? According to the stories there was no open investigation into Manafort. So what could  he  possibly contribute that a press officer couldnât. Perhaps the AP  animated by civic spirit  decided to just give  Weissman  all  their  source material. Perhaps  they  flew there on broomsticks  too. Iâd rate both options just as likely.
Then you have to ask why  Weissman  made the jump to Muellerâs team? Did  him  having APâs source material represent  his  buy-in to get on a high profile investigation that could offer  him  the satisfaction of a bit of payback after sitting in the âvictory celebration â shell-shocked and dumbfounded  as the election was called for Donald Trump?
And you saw  Weissman  try to get Manafortâs bond revoked for editing an op-ed.
Weissmanâs history of legalized thuggery  his obvious and egregious partisanship  his collaboration with AP on their investigative work on Paul Manafort  and the abusive way  Weissman  has gone after Manafort all reeks of a personal animus. One hopes that eventually there will be enough heat on Rosenstein that heâll remember who the boss is and impose some type of discipline on Mueller posse. But Iâm not counting on it.
