Elizabeth Warren only female senator absent from Hillary Clinton event

But on Monday night, one after another, the 13 female senators walked to the podium and sung Clinton’s praises, as well as her chances.

In what is either a hilarious twist or a troll on her aide’s behalf, after Clinton suffered a concussion in 2012, senior aide Philippe Reines reached out to none other than N.F.L. commissioner and king of concussions Roger Goodell for advice.

Clinton herself seemed to note the dynamic when she wrote for TIME’S 100 most influential people of 2015 that Warren “never hesitates to hold powerful people’s feet to the fire: bankers, lobbyists, senior government officials and, yes, even presidential aspirants”.

But Warren is largely seen as the standard bearer for the party’s liberal base-who many hoped would challenge Clinton for the nomination-and withholding her endorsement is one way of lobbying the candidate to move in her direction.

An email released by the State Department through the Freedom of Information Act around the same time as the publication of Clinton’s memoir showed the White House did indeed prepare Rice for her interviews. Elizabeth Warren remains the only female Democratic senator not to have endorsed Hillary Clinton. Johnson: “There’s nothing you can do to me now, so I’m not taking any more of your s***”. She also said it was unclear how many other kinds of USA military personnel, such as special operations forces and trainers, were needed.

Speaking to reporters after the event, Mikulski laughed off Warren’s absence, suggesting that “maybe she has a cold”.

Most of the new emails are ones received and sent during 2012 and 2013, shortly before she left office.

“That was the best she or anyone could do”, Clinton added. Conversely, the Clintons have long eyed Warren as a political threat.

In her 2014 memoir Hard Choices, Clinton defended Rice’s appearances by insisting the former United Nations ambassador had been acting on intelligence she had at the time. Thirty-three of 44 Senate Democrats have officially backed Clinton, or 75 percent, while 93 percent of the 14 Democratic women have.

The July 2012 e-mail message, and subsequent travel to places on the list, plays into a narrative Republicans are pushing that Clinton’s actions as secretary of state were motivated by politics, and fits with a line that GOP presidential candidate Carly Fiorina likes to use against Clinton. It’s the largest release yet, which began in May, and now includes about two-thirds of Clinton’s total emails. That perception, however, could erode in the coming weeks, especially as more congressional Democrats endorse Clinton. Sen.
