WASHINGTON â The Secret Service has spent at least $137 505 to rent golf carts to protect  President Trump  this year at  his  private clubs in New Jersey and Florida.
That's the biggest purchase order for golf carts so far. It comes in a contract that will extend through May 28  2018. The agency signed contracts for golf carts at  Trump 's clubs as early as February  but they never exceeded about $18 000 â and only lasted for one month at a time.
In August  USA TODAY first reported that the Secret Service can no longer pay the overtime for hundreds of agents it needs to carry out an expanded protective mission â in large part due to the sheer size of  Trump 's family and efforts necessary to secure their multiple residences up and down the East Coast. Secret Service Director Randolph "Tex" Alles said more than 1 000 agents have already hit the federally mandated caps for salary and overtime allowances that were meant to last the entire year.

While Congress has been working on a fix to raise the caps for the agents  critics have said  Trump  could ease the financial burden on the agency by reducing  his  travel and staying at the White House more often.
"There's a question about how fast  Trump  is racking up bills that the taxpayers have to pay  which are largely trips to  his  hotels and  his  golf courses " said Harrell Kirstein  American Bridge communications director.
Under the law   Trump  cannot provide or pay for any equipment or services the Secret Service needs to protect  him . The rule is intended to stave off any potential conflicts of interests for the agency.
The Secret Service has signed several more golf-related contracts. On Oct. 1  the agency paid $15 600 to install and remove ballistic glass for  Trump  to watch the Presidents Cup golf competition in Jersey City  N.J.
The total the agency has spent on portable bathrooms  a mobile office and ballistic glass at  Trump âs New Jersey golf course rings in at $53 316.

PROBLEM: What is the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Trent Franks ? Arizona Rep. Trent Franks resigned effective immediately Friday afternoon amid damning reports that he made unwanted sexual advances toward female staffers and offered at least one of them millions of dollars to carry a surrogate baby for him and his wife.
 GOP Rep. Trent Franks  resigns amid 'inappropriate behavior' claim
A few hours later  Politico reported that  Franks  had not just approached  his  female staffers about surrogacy — but also seemingly proposed sexual intercourse as a means to impregnate them.
The women said they decided to file complaints with the House Ethics Committee because they were concerned  Franks  was asking about sex  not artificial insemination.
GOP sources aware of the complaints said one of the women claimed she was retaliated against after rebuffing  Franks ' lewd proposal  having her previous access to the congressman revoked.
Also Friday  the Associated Press reported that  Franks  had offered one of the women a whopping $5 million to act as a surrogate for  him  and  his  wife. The woman claimed  Franks  pressed her repeatedly about surrogacy after she initially rebuffed  him .
In addition to talks of surrogacy   Franks  tried to convince a female aide that they were in love after sending her an article describing how two people know they love each other  according to the Politico report.
 Franks'  abrupt resignation comes as Washington  D.C.  reels from a sexual harassment scandal involving dozens of male politicians. Just hours before  Franks  initially announced  his  resignation  Democratic Sen. Al Franken stepped down in response to shocking claims that he sexually harassed a number of women. A few days before that  Franks’ Democratic House colleague John Conyers announced his resignation amid a sexual harassment scandal of his own.
 Franks  forcefully denied ever engaging in sexual misconduct in a lengthy statement on Thursday.
House Speaker Paul Ryan accepted Franks’ resignation on Friday. The House ethics investigation into the shocking claims against  Franks  has thereby been called off  the committee said.

SOLUTION: Neutral

PROBLEM: What is the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Earl K. Sneed ? The Sports Illustrated story also detailed the teamâs handling of the domestic assault case against  Earl K. Sneed   a writer on Mavs.com whose employment was terminated this week.  Sneed  was arrested in 2012 on suspicion of assaulting  his  then-girlfriend  who fractured her right wrist and suffered bruises to her arms and chest.
 Sneed  was arrested at the NBA team's facility two months after the incident and eventually pleaded guilty to misdemeanor assault  according to Sports Illustrated. In the report   Sneed  then had another violent incident in 2014 with a fellow Mavericks employee  whose face was left swollen after the assault.
 The woman  reported the incident with  Sneed  to  her  immediate supervisor and Pittman. Pittman informed the woman of  Sneed 's prior arrest  according to Sports Illustrated.
âI was aware of it " Cuban told Sports Illustrated. "I also suggested that we put  him  through domestic violence training class and then create a zero tolerance policy that included a variety of things â¦ I donât want this to be incorrect. I donât want you to think I misled you. We took this very seriously.â
 Sneed  erased all  his  tweets and then deleted  his  account late Tuesday night.  His  Instagram account was still active.
Late Tuesday   Sneed  released a statement to The Dallas Morning News: "While both instances described in the report are damning and language used is not accurate  the two relationships described in the report are not something I am proud to have been a part of. I underwent much counseling after both situations  under the direction of [Mavs vice president of human resources] Buddy Pittman  and I feel like I grew from that counseling. I also signed a contract stating that I would not have one-on-one contact or fraternize with female employees after the inaccurately described incident with my female co-worker  who was a live-in girlfriend.
