Question: Verify if the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Betsy DeVos is Positive . Education Secretary Betsy DeVos  convened a special committee to rewrite the policy in June  saying the regulations are "overly burdensome and confusing" and need to be streamlined.
"It is the Department's aim  and this Administration's commitment  to protect students from predatory practices while also providing clear  fair and balanced rules for colleges and universities to follow "  DeVos  said in a statement at the time.
In June  NPR reported that attorneys general from 18 states and Washington  D.C.  filed suit against  DeVos  and  her  department  accusing  DeVos  of breaking federal law and giving free rein to for-profit colleges by rescinding the borrower defense rule.
The rule had been put on hold less than one month after  DeVos  said  her  agency would re-evaluate it.
The potential rules will be discussed next week at a three-day meeting starting Monday of the special committee assembled by  DeVos   according to Education Department spokesman Alberto Betancourt. It is the second round of negotiations to establish new guidelines.

Answer: yes


Question: Verify if the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Joe Barton is Negative . Rep. Joe Barton   whose nude pic was spread on the internet Wednesday  contacted Capitol Police in regards to the woman who had possession of it â possibly making him a victim of ârevenge porn.â
The woman told the paper that  at that time  she had became aware that  Barton   who is not married  was involved in relationships with other women.
âI want your word that this ends â  Barton  said in a 2015 phone call to the woman.
 Barton  told the paper Wednesday that the phone conversation contained evidence of a âpotential crimeâ against him.
The Dallas Morning News noted that  Barton âs situation could apply to a ârevenge porn lawâ enacted by Texas legislators in 2015.
 He  added that Capitol Police had opened an inquiry on the matter.

Answer: no


Question: Verify if the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Steve Bannon Steve is Positive . As Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell and his allies at the Senate Leadership Fund and elsewhere devolve into using failed tactics employed in 2016 by Democrat Hillary Rodham Clinton  the Zionist Organization of America (ZOA) and the Republican Jewish Coalition (RJC) are hammering back at McConnell and his cronies. McConnell’s Senate Leadership Fund has  just like Hillary Clinton did  falsely alleged that  Bannon  is anti-Semitic.
The Senate Leadership Fund  in a move that only hurts Sen. Dean Heller (R-NV) even more than the pro-amnesty anti-Trump incumbent is hurting alread   on Thursday tweeted an attack against  Bannon :
Here’s another pledge for @DannyTarkanian to sign backing  Bannon  over ex-wife charges. #NVSen pic.twitter.com/qIHE8SrAJL — Senate Ldshp Fund (@Senate_Fund) October 25  2017
In a comment to The Hill newspaper  Holmes falsely alleged  Bannon  is a “white supremacist.”
“In 2018 we ought to revisit this question and find out if these people are still happy to be associated with  Bannon  ” Holmes said. “When you’re facing voters  I’d take one of the most successful majority leaders in history over a white supremacist any day.”
Matt Brooks  the director of the Republican Jewish Coalition  said that  while his group does support Heller  McConnell and his cronies are wrong to make this false allegation against  Bannon .
“We defended  him  [ Bannon ] aggressively when  he  faced these accusations from the left  and I’ll defend  him  when  he  faces these accusations from the right ” Brooks said  per the Jewish Telegraphic Agency news organization  adding: “Dean Heller is a perfect example where  Bannon  and the RJC are on different sides  but I will absolutely defend  Bannon  — he is not anti-Semitic.”
ZOA does not invite anti-Semites to our events.  Steve Bannon  is the furthest thing from an anti-Semite  contrary to McConnell and Holmes’s shameful lies.  Steve  is a proud friend of the Jewish people and the Jewish State of Israel. I know and have worked closely with  Steve Bannon . I am appalled by these shameful attempts to smear  Bannon ’s character and integrity by promoting false allegations about  Bannon ’s views on Jews and Israel. This is clearly being done because of policy differences between Senator McConnell and  Bannon .
 He  then quotes Dershowitz  a liberal Harvard professor  who says it is not “legitimate” or accurate to make such accusations against  Bannon .
“It’s not legitimate to call [ Bannon ] an anti-Semite because you disagree with his policies ” Dershowitz said  per Klein’s ZOA release. “The evidence suggests that  Mr. Bannon  has very good relationships with individual Jews and is supportive of Israel. I’ve seen no evidence of personal anti-Semitism on the part of  Bannon .”
Klein also quotes Home Depot founder Bernie Marcus  a major GOP donor  as saying the attacks against  Bannon  are a disgrace. “I have known  Steve  to be a passionate supporter of Israel ” the ZOA release quotes Marcus as saying  adding: “What is being done to  Steve  is a shonda [disgrace].”
The release from ZOA continues by quoting more people backing up  Bannon :
The Anti-Defamation League acknowledged that it has found no written or verbal statements made by  Bannon  that were anti-Semitic. Liberal columnist and former editor of the Forward  J.J. Goldberg  recently wrote about these charges against  Bannon   “There’s no evidence. The evidence that’s tossed around doesn’t hold up. The more we cry anti-Semitism when it’s not real  the more likely we won’t believe when the danger is real.” Vanity Fair reported that  Bannon  valiantly fought to move the U.S. Embassy to Jerusalem  and refused to attend a meeting with Palestinian-Arab leader Mahmoud Abbas  a Jew-hating  Israel-hating terrorist.  Bannon  is quoted as saying  “I’m not going to breathe the same air as that terrorist.”
The release from ZOA concludes by again praising  Bannon  and saying the organization is proud to have  him  at the group’s annual dinner in New York City on Nov. 12. Klein said:
 Steve  has helped ZOA and our battles against anti-Semitism on college campuses and has invited me  a Jew and a Zionist  to be a regular columnist at his Breitbart News. Anti-Semites don’t provide Morton Klein with a platform. We are proud and fortunate to have  Steve Bannon  on our side fighting for Israel and against anti-Semitism. And we’re honored that  he  will be a speaker at ZOA’s 2017 Gala where  he  will be introducing Dr. Miriam and Sheldon Adelson  the greatest pro-Jewish Zionists on the face of the planet.
It remains to be seen if Holmes and Senate Leadership Fund and McConnell will withdraw their false attacks against  Bannon   or if they will further infuriate Jewish Republicans including major GOP donors like Adelson and Marcus–and further jeopardize more incumbents like Heller.
