Input: Consider Input: What is the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Anthony Scaramucci ? Tufts University has postponed an event featuring short-lived White House spokesman and colorful conversationalist Anthony Scaramucci after the Mooch threatened to sue his alma mater's paper over a negative article about him  the Boston Globe reports.
The article was written by 26-year-old Tufts grad student Camilo Caballero  who argued that  Scaramucci  should be removed from  his  spot on Tufts' Fletcher School of Law and Diplomacy advisory board  which  Scaramucci  has held since 2016.
 Scaramucci  responded this weekend with a letter from  his  lawyer  demanding that Caballero and the Daily issue a retraction and an apology immediately.
"Neither Mr. Caballero nor the Tufts Daily can credibly hide behind shield of opinion  because the Article plainly presents as fact alleged  Scaramucci  conduct as unethical and dishonest " the letter reads. "The Article's allegations are not presented as opinion but rather as false facts."
If the Daily doesn't apologize and retract the statements   Scaramucci  "will be forced to take further legal action " the letter concluded.
Instead of saying a tearful sorry  Daily published the cease-and-desist letter online and in print  and Tufts subsequently postponed  Scaramucci 's scheduled speech at the university on Monday until the "legal action" is resolved  Tufts spokesman Patrick Collins told the Globe.
"We're disappointed that  Mr. Scaramucci  has taken this action " Collins said.
It's unclear whether Tufts will ultimately remove  Scaramucci  from  his  position on the advisory board  but if  he  is  at least it would give  him  more time to work on  his  own journalistic aspirations.

Input: Consider Input: What is the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Laura Moser ? Laura Moser  a candidate in a Democratic congressional primary in Texas . (Michael Stravato for The Washington Post)
The Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee is taking fire from the left after months of relative peace  thanks to a document put online the night of Feb. 22 â a collection of opposition research on  Laura Moser   a progressive candidate in Texasâs competitive 7th Congressional District.
As  Moser  was attending a campaign event  the DCCC posted a short but brutal collection of hits on  Moser  that would be likely used against  her  if  she  won the Democratic nomination. The 7th District is one of 23 where Hillary Clinton outpolled Donald Trump in 2016  while voters sent a Republican congressman to Washington.
âDemocratic voters need to hear that  Laura Moser  is not going to change Washington â the committee wrote. â She  is a Washington insider  who begrudgingly moved to Houston to run for Congress.â
 Moser  responded later Thursday night  saying in a statement that the DCCCâs tactics represented âwhy people hate politicsâ and hurt the effort to take Congress back from Republicans.
âWeâre used to tough talk here in Texas  but itâs disappointing to hear it from Washington operatives â  she  said.
 Moser  did relocate to  her  native Houston last year and began running for Congress  with  her  move back home â after launching Daily Action  a campaign tool for progressives frustrated by Trump â as part of the story. The DCCC  which has seen plenty of candidates brought down by residence issues  came to view  her  as unelectable.
âVoters in Houston have organized for over a year to hold [Republican Rep. John Abney] Culberson accountable and win this Clinton district â said DCCC communications director Meredith Kelly. âUnfortunately   Laura Moserâs  outright disgust for life in Texas disqualifies  her  as a general election candidate and would rob voters of their opportunity to flip Texasâs 7th in November.â
The DCCCâs memo hit  Moser  for paying Revolution Messaging  the firm where  her  husband  Arun Chaudhary  had worked since 2012  to produce  her  TV ads. But its main attack lines were backed up by an article  Moser  wrote for Washingtonian in 2014  where  she  joked that  she âd âsooner have my teeth pulled out without anesthesiaâ than move to  her  grandparentsâ home in Paris  Tex. Paris is a small city more than 300 miles from the 7th District; the DCCC warned that voters would not process the nuance.
Both  Moser âs campaign and the DCCC saw  her  in a strong position to win one of two runoff slots in the March 6 Democratic primary. With early voting underway  and Democratic turnout in Houstonâs Harris County undergoing a historic surge  the DCCC pounced.
But the way it did so  advertising what Republicans might use to beat  Moser   sparked outrage across the left. At Daily Kos  a popular group blog that crowdfunds for Democratic candidates  a diarist wondered whether the move against  Moser  âmay have something to do with the candidate selection role the Blue Dog Coalition is playing at the DCCC.â The People for Bernie Sanders  a progressive group organized to support the Vermont senatorâs 2016 presidential campaign  called âfor the DCCC board to investigate how the decision was reached and publish the findings publicly.â There was an additional factor: Revolution Messaging had worked for Sanders  and Chaudhary had worked as the campaignâs photographer.
 Moser  is not the only progressive candidate in the district primary  and several of  her  rivals back universal Medicare  which has become a litmus test on the left. But  her  race has attracted national attention as an example of progressive candidates bristling as well-established Democratic organizations backed their rivals. On Thursday morning  the Intercept  which has been publishing articles on how the DCCC works  highlighted  Moser âs race and the involvement of Emilyâs List with party donor Lizzie Pannill Fletcher.

Input: Consider Input: What is the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Nico LaHood ? Meet  Nico LaHood   district attorney for Bexar County  Texas  home of the mostly Democratic enclave of San Antonio.  LaHood  is now locked in a street brawl of a primary battle against a former friend  Joe Gonzales.
âIâm a conservative guy â  LaHood  told a right-wing radio host last year  as reported by the San Antonio Express-News.
The context was  LaHood  complaining that while  he  was opposed to âsanctuary cities â  he  also didnât want the state government to tell municipalities what to do. âWith all due respect to the governor  how many times have you flipped off the federal government by saying  âHey  screw you  donât tell us how to run Texasâ?... I think itâs a little bit hypocritical now  he âs playing big government and telling us how to run our municipalities.â
On another radio talk show   LaHood  said that Islam is âbasically a political system wrapped in a religion â parroting far-right talking points that have been disproven by all reputable scholars of Islam. Moreover   LaHood  said moderate Muslims are not real Muslims: âI have some very  veryâand I want to emphasize thisâvery good friends that wear the label of a Muslim â  LaHood  said. âBut they donât follow the tenets or the principle of Islam  more importantly Sharia Law  because theyâve been Americanized.â
 LaHood  also went on record opposing âJennyâs Law â which was unanimously passed by the Texas Senate  and provides victims and witnesses of crimes access to an attorney free of charge. It is named for a mentally ill rape victim who was imprisoned for 27 days to ensure she could testify against her rapist. While incarcerated  she was severely beaten.
 LaHood  publicly opposed the law  saying it was ânot practical.â The head of his officeâs criminal trial division was the only person to testify against it in the legislature. And  for good measure   he  hired one of the prosecutors involved in the original âJennyâ case. When these facts were reported   LaHood  wrote a letter attacking the newspaper that reported them.
LaHoodâs conservatism is apparently grounded in his religion. At a town meeting with constituents  he said  âI love Jesus and he loves me  and thatâs why I love you and your family.â A former drug dealer turned born-again Christian   LaHood  has described  himself  as a âman who is passionately in love with the Lord.â
Not all of  his  comments have been quite so Christian  however. At an earlier meeting   he  yelled at a constituent who had challenged whether  he  had held police officers accountable. âWhen I was a district attorney  you can ask any prosecutor I went up against. Ask if I had the huevos to go against anybody and hold them accountable â placing  his  hands in a gesture of said huevos for emphasis.
âAnger motivated me to accomplish things â  LaHood  said in an interview with the Rivard Report  âand I believe God used my anger.â
And then thereâs the anti-vaxxer stuff.  LaHood   whose son has autism  has appeared at anti-vaxxer conferences  using his district attorney title as proof of credibility. And in a promotional video for the anti-vaxxer movie Vaxxed   LaHood  says: âI âm Nico LaHood . I âm  the criminal district attorney in San Antonio  Texas. I âm  here to tell you that vaccines can and do cause autism.â
Asked about his views at the Feb. 8 debate   LaHood  said they were based on âa personal beliefâ based on âwhat my wife and I go through medically.â After  his  son developed autism  âwe have an opinion of how that happened.â
