Example Input: What is the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Jay Asher ? Author Jay Asher  who wrote the novel âThirteen Reasons Whyâ that was later adapted into a Netflix original series  was reportedly expelled from the Society of Childrenâs Book Writers and Illustrators late last year after allegations that  he  sexually harassed women in the group.
Executive director of the group Lin Oliver told BuzzFeed that  Asher âs membership was terminated after an investigation into anonymous email complaints about  his  behavior. She did not say how many complaints there were against  Asher  or when  he  had been removed specifically.
âAfter we investigated  we felt that terminating  his  membership was the proper course of action â Oliver told BuzzFeed on Monday.
 Asher   however  told BuzzFeed  he  left the organization on  his  own and that  he  had been harassed by unspecified individuals there for âclose to 10 yearsâ and âcould not deal with it anymore.â
 Asher  also claims the SCBWI told  him  at the time that the emails âshowed nothing â BuzzFeed reported.
 Asher âs removal had not come up publicly until Sunday when anonymous comments naming  him  as a sexual harasser were posted in response to an article published in the School Library Journal about sexual harassment in the childrenâs publishing industry  BuzzFeed reported.
The article itself did not name  Asher   Vanity Fair pointed out. No specific details about actions by  Asher  were given.

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.

Example Input: What is the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Kim Jong Un ? Rhetoric between President Donald Trump and North Korean leader Kim Jong Un has escalated. In response  North Korea’s foreign minister reportedly said the nation may set off the “most powerful” hydrogen bomb detonation in the Pacific. No other details were provided  but at face value  such a blast would be 1 000 times as powerful as the Hiroshima bombing. Atmospheric testing of nuclear weapons can lead to multiple dangerous scenarios.
Ri Yong Ho  the foreign minister of the isolated nation  reportedly told journalists that North Korean leader Kim Jong Un is considering such a test blast.
“It could be the most powerful detonation of an H-bomb in the Pacific ” Yong Ho told reporters at the United Nations in New York on Thursday  according to a story by South Korea’s Yonhap News Agency. “We have no idea about what actions could be taken as it will be ordered by leader Kim Jong Un.”

The suggestion came in response to bellicose rhetoric exchanged between US President Donald Trump and  Jong Un .
In a speech before the United Nations General Assembly on Tuesday  Trump called  Jong Un  a suicidal “rocket man” and threatened to “totally destroy” North Korea if the US is “forced to defend itself or its allies.”  Jong Un  allegedly responded with a written statement  in which he called Trump a “mentally deranged US dotard” and said that “a frightened dog barks louder.”
“Trump is basically creating audience costs for  Kim  to back down ” Jeffrey Lewis  director of the East Asia Nonproliferation Program at the Middlebury Institute of International Studies at Monterey  told Vox. “If you dare  Kim   it creates pressure for  him  to respond with  his  own provocation.”
“The stakes and heat in this conflict have not been this high since the Korean War ” Tristan Webb  a senior analyst for NK News  said in a story published by the outlet on Friday. “Kim Jong Un said in July that the … showdown was entering its final phase. He appears psychologically prepared for conflict.”
