[Q]: What is the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Rand Paul ? The Senate passed a sweeping bipartisan spending bill Friday morning  but not before the federal government shut down when Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.) delayed the vote past midnight to complain about the budget deficit. It was the second government shutdown in less than three weeks.
Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.) on Feb. 8 spoke on the Senate floor against a bipartisan budget deal and delayed a vote on the measure. (U.S. Senate)
Then  as an expected vote approached in the Senate   Paul  began to throw up roadblocks  demanding a vote on  his  amendment that would demonstrate how the two-year budget deal breaks past pledges to rein in federal spending.
GOP leaders refused to allow  him  to offer the amendment  arguing that if  Paul  got an amendment vote  many other senators might want one  too.  Paul   in turn  refused to allow the vote to go forward  making use of Senate rules that allow individual senators to slow down proceedings that require the consent of all.
“I can’t in all good honesty  in all good faith  just look the other way because my party is now complicit in the deficits ”  Paul  said on the Senate floor as evening pushed into night.
 Paul  objected after a visibly irritated McConnell tried to move to a vote. Then  Paul  launched into a lengthy floor speech deriding bipartisan complicity on deficit spending while the country goes “on and on and on  finding new wars to fight that make no sense.” The senator direly predicted a “day of reckoning ” possibly in the form of the collapse of the stock market.
As the hours ticked on   Paul  repeatedly refused to consent to allowing the vote to happen  as lawmakers and aides of both parties grew increasingly annoyed at  him . Sen. John Cornyn (R-Tex.)  leaving the floor after an unsuccessful attempt to curtail  Paul ’s standoff  called the gambit “grossly irresponsible” and said that leaders would not entertain  his  demand for a vote.
Senators of both parties were left fuming  with most of their ire directed toward  Paul .
“ He  has mastered the art of ticking off  his  colleagues ” said Sen. Christopher A. Coons (D-Del.).
“It’s a colossal waste of everybody’s time ” said Sen. John Thune (R-S.D.). Of  Paul   Thune said  “He never gets a result.”
 Paul himself  made no apologies as  he  delivered one floor speech after another  casting  himself  as a lone defender of fiscal austerity  despite having voted in December for a tax bill that added at least $1 trillion to the debt.

[Q]: What is the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Trevor Bauer ? Thereâs one question we know the liberal sports media never would have asked if  Trevor Bauer  had beaten the Yankees in Game 4 of the ALDS  and thatâs: did  Trevor Bauerâs  support for Trump help the Indians win the ALDS? Though  because the Indians lost the ALDS  we now get the question of whether  Bauer âs support for Trump cost them the ALDS?
Clearly   Bauer  played poorly in Game 4. The California-born pitcher allowed four hits after an error  four unearned runs  a pair of walks  and took the loss on Monday. Indians Manager Terry Francona then pulled him after only two innings.The Yankees went on to clean  Clevelandâs  clock 7-3.
However  according to Deadspin   Bauer  had other things on  his  mind last Monday evening because after  he  was pulled   he  went on a Twitter blocking spree against a Deadspin writer who began taunting  him  over  his  support of President Trump.
Deadspin writer Barry Petchesky admits to needling  Bauer  about his support of Trump during the game  and after the pitcher was yanked off the mound  he apparently noticed the writerâs taunts and blocked him on Twitter.
âI can confirm that at least some of these blocks came during the game  rather than before it  because I am one of those people â I checked my phone immediately upon the gameâs final out  and I was blocked â Petchesky wrote on Tuesday morning. âI deserved it because I am an asshole: Every time  Bauer  gave up a hit I retweeted one of  his  many  many pro-Trump or MAGA tweets.â
ah. So now you hate me for having different views. Hate. Which is exactly why you don't like trump. Hypocrite.  â Trevor Bauer (@BauerOutage)  November 10  2016
690% of them are trump supporters.  â Trevor Bauer (@BauerOutage)  February 10  2017
look man. I'm a duke fan for life too. Why are we going down this path?  â Trevor Bauer (@BauerOutage)  February 12  2017
In another tweet that really upset  Petchesky  Bauer  insisted that many of  his  teammates also support the president:
almost all of my teammates  support trump sooooo â Trevor Bauer (@BauerOutage)  February 10  2017
Despite Petcheskyâs bloviating  though  Newsweek columnist Teddy Cutler assures baseball fans that the Twitter imbroglio had nothing to do with  Bauer âs poor performance in game 4.
 âBauer  apparently started blocking after  he  was pulled from the game â Cutler wrote in his October 12 post. âThe Indians lost because  he  pitched badly  not because  he  likes Trump. â
