Scott Brown, a popular Republican - and the sexism she faced during that campaign.</p><p>"So I jumped in the race and sure enough, you know, the early coverage is about what I'm wearing, it's about my hair, it's about my voice, it's about whether or not I smile enough. (I didn't.) It was every part of that," she said.</p><p>"And this kept up, and I thought, you know, look, 'I'm going to be in this race, I'm going to make something count every single day," she continued. "So every day when I saw a little girl, I would come up and I would usually get down - I'm a teacher - and I would say 'Hi!

Jeff Sessions to the post of attorney general, Warren read a quote from the late Sen. Ted Kennedy and then began to read from a letter written by Coretta Scott King about Sessions in the 1980s during a different Senate confirmation hearing.</p><p>There was disagreement about her ability to read that letter and whether it breached a Senate rule.

As we transition to new leadership, it is a natural time to welcome three independent nominees who bring important new perspective and expertise to the Board."</p><p style="padding-left: 30px;">"I am pleased that Valeant is making good progress toward restoring the public's confidence and that the company has hired a great leader with an impressive track record of achievements and an impeccable reputation," said Robert A.

Last year, The New York Times reported that Trump's former defense lawyer, John Dowd, floated pardons to both men in the summer of 2017 in what appeared to be a quid pro quo offer in exchange for their silence.</p><p><div class="KonaFilter image-container display-table"><div><div class="image"></div></div></div></p><p>Trump has publicly defended Manafort in recent months, praising his refusal to "break."</p><p>Giuliani also told INSIDER last year that even though Manafort had struck a cooperation deal with prosecutors, his joint defense agreement with Trump was still in effect. At the time, legal scholars brushed off Giuliani's claim, saying it would be impossible for Manafort to cooperate against the president while remaining in a joint defense agreement with him.</p><p>But several weeks later, it surfaced that Mueller's team was furious because it had learned that Manafort's lawyers were briefing Trump's team on what their client was being questioned about in connection with the investigation.</p><p>Those events, Justice Department veterans told INSIDER, don't point to a coherent legal strategy, but to a play for a presidential pardon.</p><p>It may not be that simple, however.</p><p>With the 2020 presidential election around the corner and a newly empowered Democratic-led House of Representatives, "Trump knows that a Manafort pardon is politically risky right now and will only hasten talk of impeachment," Jens David Ohlin, a vice dean at Cornell Law School who is an expert in criminal law, told INSIDER.</p><p>"Ironically, Manafort's best hope is that Trump loses the 2020 election and then pardons Manafort on his way out of the White House," he added.</p><p>Even then, Manafort may not be out of the woods.</p><p>Manafort has been accused of laundering millions of dollars, failing to pay income taxes, and actively engaging in assisting outside governments that are often hostile to the US without registering as a foreign agent.</p><p>If his gamble pays off and Trump grants him a pardon, "the stopwatch starts on various state prosecutors in New York, Virginia, Washington, DC, and anyone else who might have the jurisdiction," Cramer said.</p>

'Like a guy shooting craps down to his last chip': Paul Manafort just made his riskiest gamble yet

Ted Cruz's follow list is a big tea party, though he keeps an eye on President Barack Obama, too.</p><p>Marco Rubio seems open to following everyone under the sun - Democrats, fellow Republicans, insiders of every type and an odd assortment of outliers who offer advice on matters ranging from body-piercing to playing craps and getting out of debt.</p><p>Using Twitter to get a message out is now a must-do for presidential candidates, but looking at the accounts they follow can be instructive, too. Their follow list can reflect not only their personality and interests, but sometimes their strategy. In Rubio's case, it seems to reflect a bit of a problem with spam, as well.</p><p>Overall, their choices reflect an interest in people who think like they do. Few Republicans or Democrats want to follow what people on the other side say. And most - Democrats Hillary Rodham Clinton and Bernie Sanders among them - don't follow most or any of their party rivals.</p><p>Some candidates rely on hired help to tend their social media affairs, especially those with lots of money and staff, so it's not always clear who's doing the tweeting or the following.</p><p>Trump, though, is known to spend the wee hours lobbing rhetorical bombs at Twitter. Cruz, said spokesman Rick Tyler, "does follow Twitter virtually all day long between events." John Kasich has orderly lists of Ohio political and media groups, like a clothes closet organized by style and color. A flood of first-person tweets from others, too, suggests a personal interest in the platform.
