question:
Verify if the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Clinton is Negative . Rep. Mark Meadows (R-NC) said a meeting revealed in the House Intelligence Committee memo released Friday shows that  the Clinton campaign and the Democratic National Committee  likely knew about the dossier  despite  their  denials.
The memo revealed that the law firm representing the  Clinton  campaign and the DNC  Perkins Coie  hosted âat least oneâ meeting in Washington  D.C. in 2016 with dossier author Christopher Steele  Fusion GPS  and media outlets  in which the dossierâs research was discussed.
According to Meadows  Perkins Coie could likely not have hosted the meeting without getting its clientâs permission â in this case  the  Clinton  campaign and the DNC â due to attorney-client privilege. Attorney-client privilege would give the  Clinton  campaign and the DNC control over what Perkins Coie could share with other parties â especially the media.
âI canât imagine that a law firm would set that up and bring in the media without knowledge of some individual within the DNC or the  Hillary Clinton  campaign directing them to do so  because it would break an attorney-client privilege to bring in the media and allow that to be exposed without that happening â Meadows said during a conference call with reporters about the memo on Friday.
The  Clinton  campaign paid Perkins Coie $5.6 million from June 2015  and the DNC paid Fusion GPS $3.65 million beginning in November 2015  according to the Washington Post. Obama for America also paid Fusion GPS $972 000 since April 2016  according to The Federalist.
Even after that   Clinton    her  top campaign and DNC officials denied knowing they were paying for the dossier.  Former Clinton campaign manager Robby Mook  told CNN that  he  was unaware that the  Clinton  campaign was paying Fusion GPS.
âI didnât know that we were paying the contractor that created that document â  Mook  told CNN on November 3  2017.
 Former Clinton Campaign Chairman John Podesta  also told Senate Intelligence Committee investigators last year that  he  did not know they were paying for the dossier  according to CNN.
answer:
no


question:
Verify if the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Hevidar Ahmed is Positive . An experienced Rudaw war correspondent   Hevidar Ahmed   reported from Kirkuk that some 10 Peshmerga were beheaded during confrontations between the Kurdish fighters and Hashd al-Shaabi late Sunday night.  Ahmed  also said there were looting and burning of Kurdish homes in Tuz Khurmatu by the Hashd al-Shaabi.  He  reported that 150 Kurdish houses were looted and 15 burned.
A report filed on Tuesday indicated a Rudaw reporter named Hevidar Ahmed personally saw the headless corpses of Kurdish troops.  Ahmed  said that  contrary to the general tone of reports about the Iraqi advance into Kirkuk  a few Peshmerga units âput up a fierce defenseâ at first  falling back only after they realized they were greatly outnumbered and some of their fighters had been wounded or killed.
 Ahmed  reported seeing âthe bodies of as many as 10 Peshmerga piled into the back of a pickup truck â all of them beheaded.  He  stated they were beheaded by âa group of Hashd al-Shaabi trained after the Mosul operation last year.â
It should be noted that Rudaw appears to be the only source of these beheading reports as of Wednesday afternoon. Other references to the beheading of Peshmerga fighters all seem to lead back to  Ahmed âs account. Furthermore  the authenticity of the Shiite militia fighterâs video posted by Rudaw does not appear to have been confirmed by other sources.
answer:
no


question:
Verify if the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Forrest Claypool is Negative . Mayor Rahm Emanuel on Thursday continued to defend his handpicked Chicago Public Schools chief in the face of a searing inspector generalâs report that accuses district CEO Forrest Claypool of engaging in a âfull-blown cover-upâ to ward off an ethics probe.
 Claypool  ârepeatedly liedâ during the investigation by denying  he  had asked an attorney to alter a bill for legal advice on an ethics issue involving the districtâs top attorney  said Inspector General Nicholas Schuler  who has recommended that  Claypool  be fired. âIâm not looking at freaking bills  â Claypool  said in one interview with investigators  according to Schulerâs report.
âAt every turn in this matter   Claypool  kept making matters worse. And it appears that  his  decisions were driven by a clear desire to keep information harmful to  his  narrative from the Board  the OIG and the public â Schuler wrote.
 Claypool  met privately with school board members on Thursday and issued a lengthy statement in which  he  apologized for âmistakes in judgmentâ while defending  his  legacy and making it clear  he  disagrees with Schulerâs interpretation of CPS ethics policy.
âTo put this in perspective: This situation is about how I zealously tried to get Chicago students their fair share of state education dollars  after years and years of racial discrimination  and getting those kids the best possible legal representation â said  Claypool   who canceled a scheduled appearance at a North Side elementary school on Thursday. He did not directly address Schulerâs most damaging allegations.
Claypoolâs alleged cover-up turned an investigation into whether district attorney Ronald Marmer violated CPS ethics policies on contracts and business relationships into a call for  Claypoolâs  termination. Schuler also is recommending that Marmer be disciplined with a âlengthy suspension or even termination.â
Marmer is one of several of  Claypool 's former colleagues and past political donors who have won district jobs and consulting contracts. He has received annual payments of roughly $200 000 as severance from the law firm of Jenner & Block in addition to his CPS salary.
Three attorneys on a CPS ethics committee concluded Marmer couldnât manage the contract because his severance payments created a âbusiness relationshipâ with Jenner.. A fourth CPS attorney  Joseph Moriarty  was told of the committeeâs decision and agreed with it. Moriarty told Schuler that Marmer âbecame concerned by the decision â and was going to speak with  Claypool .
 Claypool  and Marmer then turned to former CPS general counsel Patrick Rocks for another opinion  Schuler said. In a conference call with  Claypool  and two other attorneys  Rocks said he agreed with CPS' legal consensus.
 So Claypool  and Marmer decided to ask labor attorney James Franczek for his take. Franczek also agreed with the previous opinions  which didnât go down well with  Claypool  and Marmer. He later sent an email to Moriarty that said âI think I am off the xmas card list.â
 Claypool  ultimately turned to political donor J. Timothy Eaton  who  according to Schulerâs report  served as a teacherâs assistant for a college course  Claypool  took while Eaton was a law student.
 âClaypool  attempted to paper over the opinions of the six attorneys with Eatonâs letter â Schuler wrote in his report. In addition  after the IGâs investigation had begun  Marmer complained about Franczekâs bill  which had âCPSâs Code of Ethicsâ and âethics issuesâ listed on it.  Claypool  asked Franczek to change the listings. Franczek then crossed out the entries and hand wrote âpersonnelâ and âpersonnel issuesâ in their place  the report says.
Franczek delivered the reworded invoice back to  Claypool  with a cover letter marked âFor Forrest Claypoolâs Eyes Only.â
In interviews with the IG during the investigation   Claypool â unequivocally  emphatically and repeatedlyâ denied  he  had asked Franczek to make changes to the bill  and said â he  would never have been involved in such lowly billing matters.â
But last month  in a letter to Schuler's office   Claypool  apologized for intervening to reword the invoice.  Claypool 's letter acknowledged Schuler had documents that contradicted the CEO's initial claim.
â He  turned 180 degrees from claiming certain memory to no memory at all â Schuler wrote in  his  report. â His  letter was designed to taint the Boardâs reception of the OIGâs final report by falsely portraying lies on two separate occasions as mere lapses of memory.â
answer:

no
