What is the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Rex Tillerson ? BRUSSELS/BERLIN (Reuters) - On the eve of his trip to Europe  Rex Tillerson gave a speech last week that European allies had waited months to hear: an âironcladâ promise of U.S. support to its oldest allies.

The question is whether European officials believe him  given tensions during his April visit to Europe  when Reuters reported  Tillerson  initially planned to skip a NATO meeting in Brussels and then only attended under pressure from allies.
âIf there were expectations that  Tillerson  might evolve into a counterweight to Trump  someone who could pass on messages from partners and exert moderating influence over American foreign policy â those expectations have been disappointed â said Niels Annen  foreign policy spokesman for Germanyâs Social Democrats in parliament.
The French have gone around  Tillerson  to develop contacts with U.S. Secretary of Defense Jim Mattis  White House National Security Adviser H.R. McMaster and White House Chief of Staff John Kelly  while the EUâs top diplomat Federica Mogherini has gone directly to Vice President Mike Pence.
One European diplomat said  Tillerson  was in a difficult position from the outset because the Trump administration was hostile to Iran and brought in a team of generals who took a hard line  âso it never left  Tillerson  much room.â

What is the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Dana Baiocco ? Dana Baiocco  President Donald Trumpâs pick to sit on the Consumer Product Safety Commission  made her name helping companies avoid responsibility for harmful products. A partner at law firm Jones Day   Baiocco  has represented big tobacco and fought in court against asbestos workers who developed mesothelioma.
But the cases  she âs litigated that may conflict most directly with the CPSCâs mission of protecting the public from dangerous products involve all-terrain vehicles. While the CPSC was leading a campaign over ATV safety   Baiocco  was representing Yamaha in several suits over  its  two-person Rhino ATV.
 Baiocco âs appointment would put Republican appointments in the majority of the five-person commission  which could halt or reverse progress on a number of issues  including restrictions on off-highway vehicles  a category that includes ATVs. âIndustry very much wants the agency to abandon that rule-making â said Rachel Weintraub  legislative director and general counsel for the Consumer Federation of America. âAnd once there is a Republican majority  that may happen.â
In a letter  Baiocco  sent to the CPSC special counsel last month  she said she would recuse herself from âany particular matter in which I know that I have a financial interest directlyâ and issues that are of direct interest to her husbandâs firm  White and Williams. The letter didnât specifically address ATVs or Ikea dressers.
Remington A. Gregg  counsel for civil justice and consumer rights at Public Citizen  said  Baiocco  should âabsolutely recuse herselfâ from those and âany products sheâs worked on.â
Itâs unclear how many of those products she might encounter as a CPSC commissioner. In addition to Yamaha   Baiocco  who has worked at Jones Day since 1998   has defended R.J. Reynolds Tobacco Company in a class-action suit filed on behalf of smokers in Florida. According to a financial disclosure form she submitted to the Senate   Baiocco  received at least $5 000 âin a yearâ from 13 clients  including R.J. Reynolds  Volkswagen AG  and the chemical manufacturer Daikin Industries  in addition to  her  more than $1.2 million salary from Jones Day.  She  also represented Honeywell Safety Products in a suit filed by the survivors of a worker who developed mesothelioma after being exposed to asbestos at the World Trade Center site.  Her  client list also includes airplane parts manufacturer Parker Hannifin  which  she âs represented in wrongful death cases involving 13 people  including the late Missouri Gov. Mel Carnahan.
 Baiocco  and the White House did not respond to requests for comment.
Consumer advocates will be closely watching Baioccoâs confirmation hearing in the Senate Commerce Committee  which is scheduled for Wednesday. âWe want to hear that  she âs actually concerned about health and safety and that  she  would work to protect our families â said Gregg. â Her  career shows the opposite.â

What is the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Trumpbudget ? The White House projects a large gap between government spending and tax revenue over the next decade  adding at least $7 trillion to the debt over that time. In 2019 and 2020 alone  the government would add a combined $2 trillion in debt under  Trump ’s plan.
Even with upbeat economic forecasts and numerous proposed cuts to social programs — most of which are expected tol be dead on arrival in Congress — the  Trump  administration projects that it would run a deficit of $450 billion in 2027.
Democrats  though  reacted with hostility  saying the proposal confirmed their long-held belief that  Trump  would pivot from large tax cuts for corporations to a push to scale back government benefits for low-income Americans.
“The  Trump  budget proposal makes clear  his  desire to enact massive cuts to health care  anti-poverty programs  and investments in economic growth to blunt the deficit-exploding impact of  his  tax cuts for millionaires and corporations ” Rep. John Yarmuth of Kentucky  the top Democrat on the House Budget Committee  said. “These cuts to critical federal investments are so extreme they can only reflect a disdain for working families and a total lack of vision for a stronger society.”
Republicans have long called for eliminating the budget deficit  but  Trump  has ushered in a new economic strategy  jettisoning deficit fears in favor of a low-tax  high-spending model that  he  thinks will boost the economy. Such an approach has risks  particularly as government debt levels are projected to grow at least $7 trillion over the next decade.
Last year   Trump  and  his  budget director  Mick Mulvaney  sought to use the budget as a way to promise that the deficit would be eliminated over 10 years  even though many of its proposals were not enacted.
