[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 Christopher Mays ? Christopher Mays  told the station Jordan was inside âenjoying  himself â for at least 30 minutes before police showed up.
â[There was] a 3-month-old boy whoâs not strapped in the car seat  upside down  [his] head is where itâs butt should be  feet up in the air â  Mays  said. âGod only knows how much longer an upside down infant has in a car seat.â
Meanwhile  the strip club staff and the concerned customer helped the 3-year-old unlock the car from the inside  freeing the kids   Mays  said.
âItâs devastatingâ¦itâs devastating that people can do that to childrenâ¦it really opens your eyes to what goes on in this world  how nasty things can be â  Mays  told WINK News.

[EX Q]: What is the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Dennis Hastert ? A federal judge on Tuesday ordered tightened restrictions on former U.S. House Speaker Dennis Hastert  including barring  him  from possessing pornography  using sex chat lines or having any contact with minors except in the presence of an adult who is aware of  his  sexual abuse of boys decades ago.
Although the reasons for the tightened restrictions were not spelled out   Hastert  has been undergoing a court-ordered sex offender evaluation — including any "psychological and physiological" testing deemed necessary — to expose any undisclosed wrongdoing and gauge whether  he 's a danger to society.
Under the new terms of  his  release  Hastert  75  was ordered not to possess any “pornographic  sexually oriented  or sexually stimulating materials  including visual  auditory  telephonic  or electronic media  computer programs  or services ” and also was barred from patronizing any businesses where such material was available. Any “sex-related telephone numbers” were also off-limits  according to the order.
A spokesman for U.S. Attorney John Lausch had no comment Tuesday.  Hastert ’s attorney  Thomas Green  could not be reached  but the judge’s order indicated that  Hastert  agreed to the new conditions.
In Tuesday’s order  Durkin said  Hastert  must get approval from the probation department before accessing any device with internet access  including email.  He  must also consent — at  his  cost — to software being installed on  his  computers that monitors all keystrokes and chat conversations.
 Hastert  pleaded guilty in October 2015 to one count of illegally structuring $950 000 in bank withdrawals to avoid reporting requirements.  He  admitted in a plea deal with prosecutors that  he  was making the withdrawals to pay a longtime acquaintance — identified in court records only as Individual A — to hide wrongdoing from  his  past.
The case began to unfold four years ago after a Yorkville bank noticed the suspicious withdrawals. After  he  was told by bank officials that any withdrawals of $10 000 or more had to be reported to regulators   Hastert  began to withdraw cash in $9 000 increments. In all   he  took out $1.7 million over 4½ years  paying Individual A in increments of up to $100 000 in meetings at a Yorkville restaurant parking lot  prosecutors said.
In December 2014  FBI agents confronted  Hastert  about the withdrawals.  He  told them  he  was trying to keep  his  money safe  but shortly after that meeting  an attorney representing  Hastert  called authorities to say the former speaker was a victim of an extortion plot and would cooperate in the investigation.
Agents ultimately determined  however  that  Hastert  had been paying Individual A  a former Yorkville wrestler  to keep  him  silent about sexual abuse decades earlier.
In all  five former students came forward to accuse  Hastert .
Tribune reporters learned the identity of Individual A in early 2016.  He  has repeatedly declined to comment  but  his  wife acknowledged her husband is a victim.  He  has since sued  Hastert  in a Kendall County breach-of-contract lawsuit seeking the remaining $1.8 million — plus accrued interest — that  he  argues  Hastert  still owes  him . That lawsuit is pending.
