[EX Q]: What is the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Robert Mueller ? A 'Toothless' Old Law Could Have New Fangs  Thanks To Robert Mueller
But  Justice Department special counsel Robert Mueller  isn't laughing — and neither may potential violators if  he  decides to make it  his  new weapon of choice.
Then  in October  Mueller's office changed that when it indicted former Trump campaign chairman Paul Manafort and  his  longtime business associate Rick Gates — instantly becoming the highest-profile FARA prosecution ever.
Those charges have raised the question about whether  Mueller  has more up  his  sleeve for other people swept up in the Russia probe who could be connected with lobbying and influence work for foreign governments and entities.
 Mueller 's next steps
With Manafort and Gates charged  one next potential FARA target for  Mueller  is former national security adviser Michael Flynn. Flynn belatedly filed a FARA registration in March for work his consulting firm did on behalf of the Turkish government. That in itself isn't necessarily a problem — the Justice Department makes it a policy to accept late filings rather than punish the practice  as a means to encourage filing at all.

[EX Q]: What is the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Hung Phuoc Nguyen ? Objectively   the sketch is bad . The thick lines look like an inverted triangle with hair   or a strawberry wearing a tiny cap . The two dot eyes are inexplicably paired with horizontal lines and no eyebrows . There is only one ear . And yet   the Lancaster   Pa .  police say they have identified a suspect who they say pretended to be a farmers market worker before fleeing with cash Jan . 30   thanks to a witness who drew a picture from memory . The sketch was " amateurish and cartoonish  " local police said Wednesday in a Facebook post . But the sketch   along with a physical description of the thief   reminded at least one officer of an encounter with  Hung Phuoc Nguyen   44  . Police then showed the witness photos of possible suspects   including  Nguyen  . The witness identified  Nguyen    and police issued a warrant for two counts of theft . Officer William Hickey of the Lancaster police told The Washington Post on Thursday that he did not know whether  Nguyen  was apprehended . The police have insisted that the sketch was a serious effort to find the suspect . " We released all of those details together in our police log in the hope that someone recognizes the suspect  " Lancaster city police said in a Facebook post   according to Lancaster Online . " This was not done in jest ." The outlet described Nguyen as homeless . In an age of omnipresent surveillance video   the police sketch quietly endures . More departments are opting for software that can spit out composite photos   but departments will sometimes share artists with nearby cities that have modest personnel budgets . " Technology and machinery is cold  " Wayne Promisel   a detective with the Loudoun County Sheriff ' s Office in Virginia and a former Fairfax County police detective   told The Washington Post in 2013 . " It is also missing the ability to ask the questions in a certain way in an interview while having a sense of compassion " for victims . Speaking about the witness   Hickey said : " We appreciated their effort and continued cooperation . People like that make our job easier [ and ] more enjoyable ." But there are currently no plans to offer the witness a position as a sketch artist   he said .

[EX Q]: What is the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Julian Assange ? LONDON (AP) — A British judge is set to decide Tuesday whether to quash or uphold an arrest warrant for  WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange  who has spent more than five years evading the law inside Ecuador's London embassy .
 Assange 's lawyers argue that it's no longer in the public interest to arrest him for jumping bail in 2012 and seeking shelter in the embassy to avoid extradition to Sweden  where prosecutors were investigating allegations of sexual assault and rape made by two women. He denied the allegations.
Swedish prosecutors dropped their investigation last year  saying there was no prospect of bringing  Assange  to Sweden in the foreseeable future. But the British warrant for violating bail conditions still stands  and  Assange  faces arrest if  he  leaves the embassy.
 Assange 's lawyers asked for the warrant to be withdrawn since Sweden no longer wants  him  extradited  but  the judge  rejected their request last week.
 Assange 's attorney went on to argue that arresting  him  is no longer proportionate or in the public interest. Lawyer Mark Summers said that the 5½ years  Assange  has spent inside the embassy were "adequate  if not severe" punishment for his actions  and cited a report by a U.N. committee which said the 46-year-old was being arbitrarily detained.
He said the fact remained that  Assange  had chosen to enter the embassy to avoid arrest 
Even if the judge lifts the British arrest warrant   Assange 's legal problems may not be over. He suspects there is a secret U.S. grand jury indictment against him for WikiLeaks' publication of classified documents  and that American authorities will seek his extradition
