Hmmm, looks like science is on her side.
Of course Trump said he never promised her the that. Funny thing about that as it's on video from a rally.

Are Trump's own words fake news? ???
Trump already told us that he doesn't stand by anything that he says
-
6-10 generations back. Lol, yup, she was right there with Sitting Bull and the rest of them. Oh brother ::)

Warren is such a nutcase.
She has almost as much common sense as a rock.
We can only hope she spends her all time at pow-wows with her very native cousins who I'm sure will be so glad to invite her.

ELIZABETH WARREN’S DNA TEST IS ‘USELESS,’ ‘INAPPROPRIATE AND WRONG’ CHEROKEE NATION OFFICIAL SAYS
After Massachusetts Senator Elizabeth Warren took a DNA test to determine if she had Native American ancestry, a Cherokee Nation official responded, calling such a test “useless.” In a statement, Cherokee Nation Secretary of State Chuck Hoskin Jr. said the test was “not evidence for tribal affiliation.”
Warren released a DNA test on Monday showing that while the vast majority of her ancestry was European, there was "strong evidence" of Native American ancestry, "likely in the range of six to 10 generations ago."
“A DNA test is useless to determine tribal citizenship,” Hoskin Jr. said in response. “Sovereign tribal nations set their own legal requirements for citizenship, and while DNA tests can be used to determine lineage, such as paternity to an individual, it is not evidence for tribal affiliation.”
Hoskin Jr. went on to say that the use of a DNA test was “inappropriate and wrong.”
“Using a DNA test to lay claim to any connection to the Cherokee Nation or any tribal nation, even vaguely, is inappropriate and wrong," he said. “It makes a mockery out of DNA tests and its legitimate uses while also dishonoring legitimate tribal governments and their citizens, whose ancestors are well documented and whose heritage is proven. Senator Warren is undermining tribal interests with her continued claims of tribal heritage.”
On Monday evening, Warren tweeted her reasoning for taking a test.
"I won't sit quietly for [President Donald Trump's] racism, so I took a test," she wrote. "But DNA & family history has nothing to do with tribal affiliation or citizenship, which is determined only—only—by Tribal Nations. I respect the distinction, & don't list myself as Native in the Senate."
President Donald Trump has, in the past, referred to Warren as "Pocahontas." In July, Trump told attendees at a rally in Montana he would give "a million dollars" to a charity if Warren took a DNA test to prove she had Native American ancestry.
When asked by reporters on Monday, however, the president denied making any such offer.
"I didn't say that," he said."You better read it again."
Trump then told reporters he would only give the money if he could administer the test himself.
"I'll only do it if I can test her personally, OK?" he said, according to ABC News. "That will not be something I enjoy doing either."

I didn't know Trump was a expert on DNA testing and genetics?
Warren only claimed to have some distance native American ancestry, which she proved.
Can't Trump just admit, she has a distant ancestor that was Native American.
It ruins one's credibility if they can't ever admit they made a mistake .
Trump's challenge was, "if it shows you're an Indian." Lots of room for interpretation.
Did it? According to the Cherokee Nation it didn't.
-

Warren listed herself as a minority in law directories.
That's a far cry from what you wrote.

It's so funny watching that video where she travels back to Norman, Oklahoma and tries to present herself as 'folksy' for a few camera shots.
The lack of self awareness is just mind boggling.
The Democrats cannot win in middle America. They are not a legitimate national party. If you cannot legislate and legitimately pass laws through Congress, I simply cannot take you serious.

Ok...Since Warren is 1/1,024 Native American Trump should donate 1/1,024 of $1,000,000 which is....$976.56.

Elizabeth Warren is not an Indian.
Trump knows his detractors are all 'caught up in their feels'(as the young folks would say) about him being President and he uses it against them.
He's smarter than they are.

Dear Straw,
You'll be pleased to learn I'm off the independent fence and firmly on the left with the dems now.
It was team Trump that put my wife and I in their camp 100%.
After various interactions with team Trump supporters, I'm convinced they have no respect for me or any democratic ideas/people.
Thus, the only sensible thing to do, is vote them out on Nov 6.
The senate is a long shot, but the house is a good bet for the dems now.
That's the first step.

She said her mother was discriminated against by her fathers parents because she was Indian. Not some distant ancestry.

We’re All Native Americans Now: Elizabeth Warren demonstrates the folly of identity politics
Wall Street Journal ^ | October 15, 2018 | The Editors
Posted on 10/16/2018, 8:00:10 AM by billorites
Any doubt that Elizabeth Warren plans to run for President ended Monday when the Massachusetts Senator released a DNA analysis indicating that she probably does have some trace of distant Native American ancestry.
The former Harvard professor went so far as to unveil a website and video featuring an analysis by Stanford professor Carlos Bustamante, who said that while Ms. Warren is mainly European she likely has some Native American ancestry “in the range of 6-10 generations ago.”
This makes her between 1/64th and 1/1024th Native American, which barely spares her the humiliation of not having any after she had listed herself as Native American on federal forms filed by Harvard and Penn law schools where she had worked. On the other hand, she also looks silly for making so much of so little. As Americans are learning as the costs of genetic testing fall, nearly all of us have multiple ethnic and racial backgrounds. Ms. Warren tried to make an identity politics virtue of a genetic banality.
Credit on this point goes to Donald Trump, who mocked Ms. Warren’s genetic boast and no doubt prompted her to get the truth out before the 2020 campaign begins. Ms. Warren now says Mr. Trump should make good on his boast to write a $1 million check to charity if Ms. Warren proved she had Native American blood.
Write the check, Donald. You’ll look gracious, and you’ll have an amusing talking point and photograph that will last the entire 2020 campaign.

Trump’s ability to make his opponents and detractors say or do dumb things is just out of this world. And I don’t know that he’s actively and consciously trying to do this, which makes it all the more impressive.

Former Obama campaign manager scorches Elizabeth Warren for releasing DNA test weeks before midterms
Fox News ^ | Oct 15, 2018
Posted on 10/15/2018, 8:49:41 PM by Jim Robinson
President Obama's former campaign manager on Monday sharply criticized Massachusetts Democratic Sen. Elizabeth Warren for releasing the results of a disputed DNA test that she said backed up her claims of Native American ancestry. He claimed she was throwing her party off-message just weeks before November's critical midterm elections.
"Argue the substance all you want, but why 22 days before a crucial election where we MUST win house and senate to save America, why did @SenWarren have to do her announcement now?" former President Barack Obama's 2012 campaign manager, Jim Messina, tweeted.
"Why can’t Dems ever stay focused???" added Messina, who also served as deputy White House chief of staff.

Next thing you know Obama will get a DNA test and claim he is part white.

Wait. The guy didn't even use American Indian DNA? lol
-
I thoroughly agree with your last sentence, but how much credence should we give the first? It's solely based on family lore.
Point was that Howard was claiming that she was only saying she had distant ancestors so was correct in her claim. (now even that is probably not true with how skewed the dna testing was by including others besides native americans). His statement was not true in what she has claimed in the past.
-
Wait. The guy didn't even use American Indian DNA? lol
It's ok because now Warren can get the Latino vote.
Way better.
-
You can't actually believe this is a win for Warren, can you?
-
Warren claimed she had some distant ancestors that were native Americans.
The DNA test confirmed that.
The end.
LOL - and I am part dinosaur. You FNG fool!!!!
-
If she gets really mad she might go on the warpath.
Hahahahahaha!
-
Warren claimed she had some distant ancestors that were native Americans.
The DNA test confirmed that.
The end.
In her own words she said that her fathers parents were opposed to the marriage/relationship because her mothers family was PART Native American.
Oh, I get it now. Usually when someone says "part" it implies a significant (if not half) amount. To your side "part" means 1/100000000, hence why you still believe her claims.
-
In her own words she said that her fathers parents were opposed to the marriage/relationship because her mothers family was PART Native American.

Who cares whether Warren is part Native American? Lot's of people think they are part Native American based on family history stories and rumors and some of them actually are. My mom claimed she was 1/8 Cherokee Indian which would make me 1/16. Our supposed ancestor was a Cherokee Princess. When I sent in my DNA to Ancestry DNA the results showed my ancestors were mainly European with a smattering of Scandinavian thrown in. There was no mention of anything Native American. Someone lied!

1. Elizabeth Warren self-identified as a "Native American" in the The Association of American Law Schools Directory of law professors in every edition printed between 1986 -1995.
2. After becoming a professor at the University of Pennsylvania, Warren demanded the University change her faculty listed ethnicity from “white” to “Native American.”
3. Warren was identified by Harvard Law as a “woman of color.” Harvard promoted Warren’s hire as expanding their campus diversity by hiring a woman with "minority background" onto their faculty.
4. Warren claimed that her mother and father had to elope due to her mom’s obvious Indian heritage and the white bigotry of her father’s family.
5. Warren submitted multiple recipes for the Indian cookbook “Pow Wow Chow” and signed her name, “Elizabeth Warren - Cherokee”

Pocahontas descendant rips Warren, calls on senator to apologize
By Douglas Ernst - The Washington Times - Wednesday, October 17, 2018
Sen. Elizabeth Warren has a new critic of her widely-panned DNA test: an actual descendant of Pocahontas.
Debbie White Dove Porreco appeared on “Tucker Carlson Tonight” to discuss findings that the Massachusetts lawmaker may have between 0.09 percent to 1.5 percent American Indian ancestry. The study, which counted Mexican, Colombian, and Peruvian DNA in Ms. Warren’s favor, prompted Ms. Porreco to demand an apology.
“It did prove that she wasn’t the Cherokee Indian that she was claiming to be for so long,” she told Mr. Carlson, Townhall reported. “I think she’s guilty of claiming she’s an American Indian but has no proof — and then [is] using it for applications for college, for political reasons.”
Critics of Ms. Warren say she used claims of American Indian ancestry to better her chances of gaining employment at Harvard and the University of Pennsylvania. Similarly, employers touted her claims as evidence of ethnic diversity.
“When you see that Harvard Law School listed her as its first female faculty member of color — when she clearly isn’t — how do you feel?” the host asked.
“I feel betrayed because she wasn’t. She was using the name, trying to be American Indian just to rise above [others],” she replied. “She needs to … apologize to everybody for what she has done.”
The Cherokee Nation, the tribe from which Ms. Warren claimed ancestry, released a statement earlier in the week on the issue.
Cherokee Nation Secretary of State Chuck Hoskin Jr. said the lawmaker’s actions make “a mockery out of DNA tests and its legitimate uses while also dishonoring legitimate tribal governments and their citizens, whose ancestors are well documented and whose heritage is proven.”

National Congress of American Indians: DNA Testing Can’t Prove Heritage
Posted on October 17, 2018, by Keith Koffler
We already know that Elizabeth Warren’s claim of Native American ancestry is silly, because the results of her DNA test show that she might be something like 1/256th American Indian. What’s more, she’s lied in the past, listing herself simply as “Native American,” which is unequivocally untrue.
But according to the nation’s largest and oldest Native American organization, the National Congress of Indians, it gets even worse.
A paper on the NCAI website, written to answer Native American leader’s concerns about claims people make that they are of American Indian heritage, states that it’s not possible:
One type of DNA testing called DNA fingerprinting can be used to help document close biological relationships, such as those between parents and children, as well as among other close family members. Other kinds of testing for genetic ancestry use markers to see how similar an individual is to a broader population or group, based on probabilities drawn from databases of research on populations and group genetic characteristics.
However, no DNA testing can “prove” an individual is American Indian and/or Alaska Native, or has ancestry from a specific tribe. Genetic testing can provide evidence for the biological relationship between two individuals (e.g., paternity testing), but there are no unique genes for individual tribes or American Indian/Alaska Native (AI/AN) ancestry in general. While research scientists have found that some genetic markers are found mostly only in AI/ANs, these markers are neither unique to AI/ANs nor predictive of AI/AN identity.
Actual Native Americans are properly outraged that she’s claiming to share their heritage.
“It makes a mockery out of DNA tests and its legitimate uses while also dishonoring legitimate tribal governments and their citizens, whose ancestors are well documented and whose heritage is proven,” Cherokee Nation Secretary of State Chuck Hoskin Jr. said in a statement. “Senator Warren is undermining tribal interests with her continued claims of tribal heritage.”
Warren should not only be ashamed of herself, she has harmed her presidential prospects by showing herself a fool and an liar. The Democrats have plenty of other potential candidates, and will more likely choose one a little less strange. Althogh given the currrent roster, I’m not sure that’s possible.

Warren’s Pocahontas Wackiness Shows How Liberals Are A Bunch Of Bigots
Townhall.com ^ | October 18, 2018 | Kurt Schlichter
Posted on 10/18/2018, 8:03:19 AM by Kaslin
It’s really tough to think of any fresh new ways to mock noted 1023/1024 white person Elizabeth Big Chief Miracle Whip Warren, so I admit I approached writing this column with some reservations.
Oh, snap. This is too easy, like convincing a college sophomore from Santa Monica that America can embrace socialism, yet her daddy will still be able to buy her a cute BMW convertible.
It’s also irresistible, and so right, to mock this ambitious poser. I can just see the old Mazola ad with the Indian woman saying, “Your people call this ‘corn.’ My people call it ‘maize,’ so Elizabeth Warren calls it ‘corn.’”
The thing that gets me is that Fauxcohantas actually thought that going public with her fractional indigenous-osity was a good idea. She really did – this is the keen, considered judgment of someone who wants to have her finger on The Button, folks. I’ll take the reality star who scores with Playmates and can’t be Tonto-shamed any day.
Yes, somewhere, inside her circle of sycophants, they talked this through and decided that it was a savvy political move to announce with great fanfare that the first female Harvard law professor of color's color was 99%+ white.
Take that Donald Trump, who is now racist for mocking a manifestly white person for pretending not to be a white person, which she manifestly is. Oh, and you're racist too, for some reason.
Who are these bubble-dwelling lunatics? Well, I wrote about them in my new book, Militant Normals: How Regular Americans Are Rebelling Against the Elite to Reclaim Our Democracy, and I am not nice to them. Not even a little. Because they are stupid, and they think they should tell us how to live, and that’s not happening.
These are the same people with the wisdom and insightful grasp of human nature who reasoned, “This DNA test that shows Liz is about 1% Indian, so it will definitely convince Normals that she was totally right jumping aboard the affirmative action gravy train!”
Again, the people who thought this was a good idea want to rule us.
The elite, particularly the liberal elite, is totally out of touch with Normals. For that matter, so is the conservative-ish elite, many of whom think they’re contributing to the struggle by selling you a cruise where you can listen to Fredocon weasels like the insufferable Ben Sasse nagging you while sipping Zimas on the Lido Deck.
But it’s the liberal elite that actually imagines that we buy into the same bizarre constellation of racial weirdness that dominates their clique. They rank and rate everyone by their perceived position in the grand hierarchy of grievances. Warren gets 5 victim points for being a girl, and 20 points for being an Indian. If she only dug chicks, wore a burka, and had a limp, she would hit a grand slam in the victimhood World Series.
It’s all just so weird, basing your self-image on who your grandmother was. And in the Commie Squaw’s case, it’s her great-great-great-great-great-great grandma. It's even creepier basing your views of others on the same meaningless criteria.
Their racism, sexism, and other -isms and -phobias are all so stupid that you can’t help but point at their prejudices and laugh, which really sets Shoveling Bull on the warpath because to her and her elite pals, it’s all so very, very serious.
They actually believe this bigoted garbage. And they hate us because we don’t. And they really hate us when we laugh at them.
But how are we supposed to react? Are we supposed to take them seriously? Nah. We look at people for who they are. Some guy used to call our criteria for evaluating others “the content of their character,” but our alleged betters now dismiss that crazy talk as the ravings of some Christian kook mansplaining away his privilege. We live in the real world, where this nuttiness doesn’t fly, as opposed to an elite that lives in the institutional nuthouses of academia, the media, and the Democrat Party where this nonsense is their secular religion. With them, it’s a constant struggle of the unoppressed oppressed bickering over the spoils of victimhood.
Hard pass.
Think about your life as a Normal. You’re always interacting with people of all races, ethnicities, orientations, and creeds. And statistically, you deal with people more Indian than Elizabeth Warren every day, which isn’t hard since statistically pretty much everyone is more Indian than Elizabeth Warren. Hell, my wife – a Cuban immigrant – did one of those DNA tests and she’s more Indian than Elizabeth Warren. Really.
We’re too busy to care about immutable characteristics, and even if we weren’t we wouldn’t do it because we think caring about that stuff is stupid. Our elite, on the other hand, appears to have nothing better to do than obsess about who fits in what category. Why? Well, our elite’s track record over recent decades is pretty much an unbroken series of failures and fiascos. Since they can’t actually do anything, they really have little else to distinguish themselves with besides their membership (or fake membership) in some oppressed group.
It used to be “Those who can, do; those who can’t, teach.” Now, it’s “Those who can, do; those who can’t teach oppression studies down at the university and dress up like handmaids to protest due process.”
Yet, these are the people who think they should be ruling over us. They think we’re the mindless idiots, and they can’t even see past someone’s skin tone. Pathetic.
Again, hard pass on your proposed reign of racial error, kemosabe. We’ll stick with that “content of your character” stuff.
My just-released book Militant Normals: How Regular Americans Are Rebelling Against the Elite to Reclaim Our Democracy is annoying liberals, pinkos, SJWs, comm-symps, Never Trump sissies, and people who think Elizabeth Warren totally is a Cherokeee. Order it now to own them all.

Yes, Elizabeth Warren Is Featured In Pocahontas Exhibit At National Museum Of The American Indian
Daily Caller ^ | October 17, 2017 | Benny Johnson
Posted on 10/18/2018, 9:06:55 AM by Zakeet
The political world was confused Monday when Democratic Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren released the results of a controversial DNA test that was years in the making.
[Snip]
The Cherokee Nation issued a blistering statement calling Warren's decision ... "makes a mockery out of DNA tests and its legitimate uses while also dishonoring legitimate tribal governments and their citizens."
[Snip]
Then we headed inside the sprawling four story building to see if there was any sign of Warren in the museum.
A detailed floor-by-floor, exhibit-by-exhibit search turned up no sign of Warren. However, then came one of our final stops, at the Pocahontas exhibit.
To our surprise, there Warren was - tucked in a corner on the glowing digital screen along with President Trump. Warren is found on a digital screen that explains how Trump labeled the senator with the nickname "Pocahontas" - and why that's not a bad thing.
The museum goes out of their way to explain in the caption that the name "Pocahontas" is not an insult - according to Trump - but rather insults Warren's "claims of Indian ancestry."
"President Donald Trump says that when he calls Senator Warren 'Pocahontas' he is not insulting her," the caption reads - going on to classify Warren's Native American ancestry as "claims."
(Excerpt) Read more at dailycaller.com ...

Cross Warren's name off the Dem's 2020 list.
-
No it didn’t you retard.
How so?
-
How so?
Her claim was that she was Cherokee. It proved she wasn’t.
-
How so?
Her DNA test showed she was from 0.09 - 1.5 % FFS
And she’s made a fortune out her claims.
At a guess I’d say there are a fair few others in America
Who have that amount of Cherokee in their DNA
It be good to see all them do so well out of their being
Cherokee. ::)

MSNBC Analyst Defends Warren, Suggests Cherokee Nation is Racist
Newsbusters ^
Posted on 10/19/2018, 12:48:33 AM by TigerClaws
Desperate to defend Massachusetts Senator Elizabeth Warren’s disastrous political stunt of taking a DNA test to try to prove Native American heritage, late Thursday morning, MSNBC Political Analyst and SiriusXM Director of Progressive Programming Zerlina Maxwell actually insinuated that the Cherokee Nation was racist, following their statement condemning Warren.
Noting that Warren “long claimed that she’s part Cherokee,” anchor Craig Melvin cited: “Cherokee Nation, Secretary of State Cherokee Nation, said in a statement, ‘DNA testing cannot prove that Warren is Cherokee or any other tribe.’” The host asked: “Do we think that the decision itself was a mistake? Do we think that the timing was a mistake?”
After Maxwell laughably argued that the move “put to bed a lot of the controversy” and somehow placed President Trump “on the defensive,” she blasted the Cherokee: “But in terms of the Cherokee Nation’s statement, I found that to be ridiculous.” Claiming that she was “also part Cherokee,” Maxwell accused the Native American tribe of racial discrimination:
So to be clear, I think that while the rollout of the DNA test and the decision to do a DNA test to be able to, quote, “prove” that she is part Cherokee, may not have been the best method. I also think that the Cherokee Nation’s response was problematic because it actually ignores the fact that DNA testing historically has been used to exclude black natives from tribal affiliation. And so, that history has been completely lost in this entire conversation, and that’s potentially very unfortunate.
A Democratic senator falsely claims to be Native American to advance her academic career, she does a DNA test showing that she may only be 1/1024th of that heritage, and one of her left-wing defenders attacks the Cherokee Nation as racist after they rightfully call out Warren for trying to misappropriate their culture. The contortions that the liberal media go through to defend Democrats are truly astounding.
Here is a transcript of the brief October 18 exchange on MSNBC Live With Craig Melvin:
11:33 AM ET
(...)
CRAIG MELVIN: Zerlina, I want to talk to you about something we were talking about in the commercial break, Elizabeth Warren, considered by many to be a possible frontrunner. Perhaps you heard, she released her DNA test results earlier this week, and revealed that she has some Native American roots. She’s long claimed that she’s part Cherokee. Cherokee Nation, Secretary of State Cherokee Nation, said in a statement, “DNA testing cannot prove that Warren is Cherokee or any other tribe.” There’s Chuck Hoskin Jr., Secretary of State.
Do we think that the decision itself was a mistake? Do we think that the timing was a mistake? What do we make of the political calculation of Elizabeth Warren releasing these DNA test results 20 days away from the midterms?
ZERLINA MAXWELL [SIRIUSXM, DIRECTOR OF PROGRESSIVE PROGRAMMING]: I think it’s a complicated answer. I think that it wasn’t fully a smooth rollout of the DNA testing and the video, and it put to bed a lot of the controversy. Obviously it was because President Trump had said he was going to give a million dollars to a charity if she could prove, using a DNA test, that she was part native. She did that. He’s not giving the money to the charity. He also denied saying that. So it sort of puts him on the defensive in some ways.
But in terms of the Cherokee Nation’s statement, I found that to be ridiculous. I am also part Cherokee, but I have not taken a DNA test. I’m not trying to join a tribe or claim membership in a tribe, and neither did Elizabeth Warren.
So to be clear, I think that while the rollout of the DNA test and the decision to do a DNA test to be able to, quote, “prove” that she is part Cherokee, may not have been the best method. I also think that the Cherokee Nation’s response was problematic because it actually ignores the fact that DNA testing historically has been used to exclude black natives from tribal affiliation. And so, that history has been completely lost in this entire conversation, and that’s potentially very unfortunate.

To me, the whole issue of "race" as a key factor is pretty disgusting on any political side.
The Nazi's even figured out a way to codify into law how "Jewish" a person could be.
I think it was something like 1 grandparent disqualified you from being accepted as a full German.
I know they did a similar thing when it came to Black/African ancestry and legalized slavery.
The world made a big deal about Obama becoming the 1st black President.
Ok, I voted for the man, but it wasn't due to his race. It was my feelings on him as a President.
The genetic facts are the man was half white, but very few cared about that.
Plenty of black and white folks, voted for /against him with race as a major issue.
As for the Elizabeth Warren Indian issue, here's my 2 cents:
Trump was wrong for calling her Pochahontis . He dbl down and said he'd
give her favorite charity a million bucks, he she proved she had Indian ancestry.
Warren called his bluff and from a purely technically view, she proved him wrong.
BUT, using such a small ancestral link looks silly.
For what it's worth, my great grandma ( dad's grandma) was a full blooded Indian from SE Canada region.
I never met the woman , but saw a pic of her and it's claimed she lived to be 102?
Considering the longevity of my grandparents , it might be in the ball park, but who really knows?
Most of my ancestry is Irish and Dutch with touch of English ( anglo-saxon).
I found it interesting but it didn't change who I am now or what I'm going to do with my life.
Fuk you are dumb........
-
Her claim was that she was Cherokee. It proved she wasn’t.
She isn't according to Cherokee Indian standards. According to her DNA test she is Native American, even though it is a mere speck.
-
Her DNA test showed she was from 0.09 - 1.5 % FFS
And she’s made a fortune out her claims.
At a guess I’d say there are a fair few others in America

Cherokee. ::)
How has she made a fortune off this? Most Native American tribes require one be 1/16 Native American and some require as much as 1/4 to be accepted into a tribe. What is more, not all American Indian tribes are federally recognized. Contrary to popular belief, Indians do not receive payments from the federal government simply because they have Indian blood

No you’re wrong. She is not Cherokee. Where are you getting your bad info from?

You might want to reread my post. I never suggested Warren was Cherokee Indian, quite the opposite.
Warren, who was born in Oklahoma, has long held that her relatives on her maternal side had Native American blood, a family story that has been passed down from generation to generation. The new DNA test shows that Warren does indeed have five segments in her genome that are common to indigenous American populations. Carlos Bustamante, a Stanford University geneticist who conducted the analysis, told the Boston Globe that the results indicate that Warren had a Native American ancestor six to 10 generations back. The results seem trustworthy, genetics experts contacted by Live Science said. https://www.livescience.com/63848-elizabeth-warren-native-american-ancestry-explained.html (https://www.livescience.com/63848-elizabeth-warren-native-american-ancestry-explained.html)
Why this nonsense is being discussed is a mystery to me. Whether or not someone is Native American or has Native American DNA is inconsequential to most people.
Until I submitted my DNA to Ancestry DNA testing, I believed I was part Cherokee Indian because my mother told me she was which would mean I was, not that it ever made a hill of beans to me.
The Cherokee Nation has more than 300,000 tribal members, making it the largest of the 567 federally recognized tribes in the United States. In addition, numerous groups claim Cherokee lineage, and some of these are state-recognized. A total of 819,000-plus people claim having Cherokee ancestry on the US census, which includes persons who are not enrolled members of any tribe.
Trump started calling Warren Pocahontis quite awhile ago. Maybe it's because he thought she was Native American or maybe not. ;D
-
She's neither Delaware nor Cherokee, as both tribes have repudiated her association with them. She also claimed her mother was discriminated upon due to Native Indian background, implying she had strongly recognizable facial features to that effect. Not possible when your lineage goes back 6-10 generations before branching off into European wonderbread genetics. Another liberal clown pulls a Dukakis before an election.
-
I really don't understand how she could have been so stupid to believe that she "won" the argument with Trump by showing she's 1/1,024 % native. Is it the fact that these ivy league people live in such a liberal bubble that they are blind to how others perceive them?
-
You might want to reread my post. I never suggested Warren was Cherokee Indian, quite the opposite.
You literally posted that "According to her DNA test she is, even though it is a mere speck." That is in response to Irongrip posting that her claim was that she was Cherokee.

In 1995 the Internet barely existed. She never knew it would come back to haunt her. In fact, she'd be just fine if she'd kept her head down and not started a personal vendetta with Donald Trump. His followers are in the millions and many of them have just as many Internet detectives and conservative bloggers who expose politicians' fairy tales and lies as their hip counterparts firing off furious Tweets to Trump's twitter from the safe space of their armchairs at Starbucks using free WiFi.

What do you considering worse than alarming when we assume that about 78% of the population relies on the mainstream news for information, and that industry is trapped in a self-destructive paradigm of chasing the Democrat party's furthestmost champions of left-wing liberal causes alien to the American spirit off the cliff they're plunging headlong for by this time next year. They have no independence. They HAVE to be one-step ahead of Black Lives Matters or Me Too in order to keep their followers' glued to Don Lemon or Chris Hayes.

but it is rotting the brains of our women and young people and the work-shy assholes on welfare and disability, Prime. And there's millions of them, as these jobless demonstrators frequently show us. Not a good use of their energy but the MSM is trying its best to brainwash them into its anti-American elitist liberal hate-club. "More free stuff!" "Cheaper needles!" "More Hondurans and El Salvadorans! (and their heroin, which you shitbags crave)"! "Fuck Trump! indeed, thanks Robert De Niro, your brave slogan is our new fight for freedom in 2020" - said the DNC Spokesperson.
And you're surprised the Dems do well in the most drugged out states in the country (of which Oregon is one)? They just did that in Canada to buy the votes for the 2019 liberal vs conservative election there. They're DRUGGING the fucking country into voting for them under threat of taking their tea leaves away. That's on some serious Manchurian Candidate shit, bro. Even WE aren't there yet, but you shitheads sure are trying our patience.

The cart doesn't drive the horse. MSM is big business and not a conspiracy. Newscasters cater to their audiences' biases. The only brainwashing going on comes from the sponsors who try to convince people to buy their products. Brainwashing people on unemployment, welfare and disability is a non-starter.

The American people aren't responding to it as well as to conservative news outlets, which is why the liberal networks trail behind them in news coverage viewership. That alone should tell you that their message isn't tailored to their audience but to the instructions forcefed to them by their producers, who in turn are fed it by the executive team. There's ample evidence of a general trend toward leftist opinion and promotion of Democrat-backed causes on all the networks other than Fox, and I've posted a few threads in this very forum with examples of such.

Did you read the article? Besides the obvious connection....it made a valid point, why didn't she use a commercial test kit? Why would she pay a private company that she has distant connections to to do the testing?

Yours is only part of the story. FOX news has no viable competition. MSNBC and CNN's combined viewership exceeds FOX.
“Maddow” averaged 3 million viewers, beating CNN for the 8th straight quarter. “Maddow” was the only cable news program to achieve growth in the timeslot over 1Q17 for both A25-54 (+26% vs. FOX News' -11% and CNN's -17%) and total viewers (+34% vs. FOX News' -7% and CNN's -18%).Apr 3, 2018

I did read the pointless article.
FamilyTreeDNA is one of the most popular genealogy DNA testing companies, second only to AncestryDNA. Not sure what is meant by a commercial (DNA) test kit. There are free DNA tests available. They offer very specific and limited tests. AncestryDNA (the one I used) has the largest genealogical database. Their test kit is less than $100.
Warren's ex-husband is one of three co-founders of FamilyTreeDNA. Why wouldn't she select this company to test her DNA? She probably got the test for free.
Not sure why any of this is important. Her test results showed an insignificant percentage of Native American ancestry. I seriously doubt the Native American vote would win her an election to public office at any level. We might well be discussing whether her hair color is natural or not.

There's a reason for that.
The network of the resistance (at least in prime time) continues to thrive in the ratings department. MSNBC was the second-most-watched network across all of basic cable for the month of August. The network regularly finishes in the top two or three in the cable ratings race these days.
MSNBC dayside and total day (6 a.m.-6 a.m.) delivered record monthly audiences in August 2018, as did individual programs including Deadline: White House, hosted by Nicolle Wallace, and Morning Joe. Additionally, The 11th Hour with Brian Williams was the No. 1 cable news program in its timeslot for the month.
Here’s a look at MSNBC’s averages for August:
The ratings for August 2018:
Prime time (Mon-Sun): 1,845,000 Total Viewers / 340,000 A25-54
Total Day (Mon-Sun): 1,040,000 Total Viewers / 194,000 A25-54
The network seems to be skewing older in 2018 relative to 2017. Perhaps younger news viewers are starting to get Trump fatigue. Or maybe the further away we move from presidential elections, the less interested younger viewers are in cable news.
That’s up for debate.
In Aug. 2018, MSNBC was +1 percent in total prime time viewers, but -17 percent in prime time A25-54 viewers vs. August 2017. The trend was similar across the 24-hour day. The network was +4 percent in total day viewers vs. August 2017, but was actually -16 percent among adults 25-54.
While MSNBC dominated CNN in total prime time viewers, the network actually came up short to CNN when it came to delivering adults 25-54.
MSNBC says TRMS was the No. 1 cable news show in the 9 p.m. timeslot in August among adults 25-54. But according to Nielsen data, TRMS did not actually beat Hannity. When Jeanine Pirro hosts Hannity, those broadcasts are labeled “Hannity Special.” If one takes the “Special” broadcasts into account, then yes, Maddow does win. But Nielsen does not count the ratings for those “Hannity Special” broadcasts towards the Hannity ratings, which means Hannity consequently comes out on top across the board.
https://www.adweek.com/tvnewser/august-2018-ratings-msnbc-is-posting-year-over-year-total-audience-growth/375241 (https://www.adweek.com/tvnewser/august-2018-ratings-msnbc-is-posting-year-over-year-total-audience-growth/375241)
Check the bolded parts out. Their audience is growing older - never a good sign for a network, which aims for the coveted 25-35 demographic - and part of the reason, as the article states, is "Trump fatigue." Now why would a 24HR cable news network elicit that type of reaction from anyone, regardless of political hue? Because it's all they fucking talk about in those 24 hours, other than regularly scheduled early weekend morning programming like Dateline Mystery. They're turning off their own viewers by narrowly and obsessively over reporting on the same subject. Moreover, as it accurately states, viewership declines as election hysteria fades. This does not hold true for Fox News or its prime time hosts, whose popularity has not budged or waned since 2016 was over, nor has it spiked due to the 2018 elections (MSNBC's current status-quo). As you saw with the lower ratings Hannity gets when the show's host isn't hosting it (such as Nielsen doesn't count them), the same applies to Maddow: When she's off, her show's audience evaporates. Why is that? Because people watch those two shows for the presenter, rather than what they have to say. Leftists have found their textbook liberal heroine in a lesbian, white, former demonstrator who now holds a plum TV job for a decidedly unsocialistic inflated salary (none of which apparently gets questioned by her anti-capitalist core viewership). They like HER, so they watch her. Hannity needs no introduction, he's been a steadfast advocate for conservative causes for over 25 years and is foremost a radio personality, not a TV person (he admits he hates his TV time slot because he's an early riser and has to stay up late to do it, plus it's less freestyle than radio and has more limits on what he can broadcast).
CNN is in a cul-de-sac. It can't even get half a million people to watch its 'best' shows, and the radical hosts I posted videos about here and in the G&O are the reason. They're so far gone on the spectrum of what's socially acceptable, throwing around n-words and openly supporting 'antifa', that no tax-paying American legally in the country can watch their filth. So I won't waste your time with articles showing the nosedive their ratings have taken nor the nadir of their creative department in the form of more embarrassing videos of their anti-American hosts and panels.

There's a reason for that.
https://www.adweek.com/tvnewser/august-2018-ratings-msnbc-is-posting-year-over-year-total-audience-growth/375241 (https://www.adweek.com/tvnewser/august-2018-ratings-msnbc-is-posting-year-over-year-total-audience-growth/375241)
Check the bolded parts out. Their audience is growing older - never a good sign for a network, which aims for the coveted 25-35 demographic - and part of the reason, as the article states, is "Trump fatigue." Now why would a 24HR cable news network elicit that type of reaction from anyone, regardless of political hue? Because it's all they fucking talk about in those 24 hours, other than regularly scheduled early weekend morning programming like Dateline Mystery. They're turning off their own viewers by narrowly and obsessively over reporting on the same subject. Moreover, as it accurately states, viewership declines as election hysteria fades. This does not hold true for Fox News or its prime time hosts, whose popularity has not budged or waned since 2016 was over, nor has it spiked due to the 2018 elections (MSNBC's current status-quo). As you saw with the lower ratings Hannity gets when the show's host isn't hosting it (such as Nielsen doesn't count them), the same applies to Maddow: When she's off, her show's audience evaporates. Why is that? Because people watch those two shows for the presenter, rather than what they have to say. Leftists have found their textbook liberal heroine in a lesbian, white, former demonstrator who now holds a plum TV job for a decidedly unsocialistic inflated salary (none of which apparently gets questioned by her anti-capitalist core viewership). They like HER, so they watch her. Hannity needs no introduction, he's been a steadfast advocate for conservative causes for over 25 years and is foremost a radio personality, not a TV person (he admits he hates his TV time slot because he's an early riser and has to stay up late to do it, plus it's less freestyle than radio and has more limits on what he can broadcast).

There's nothing to argue with here either in the citations or in your commentary.
Even us old fogies are tired of the redundancy. I barely watch the news on any channel these days. Every news story turns into a dead horse. "CNN Breaking News" my eye. Should be retitled CNN Broken News. I've watched Rachel Maddow a couple of times. Her delivery is unique and a lot of fun to watch.

>WARREN TOOK DNA TEST TO HELP REBUILD TRUST IN GOVERNMENT
>Democratic U.S. Sen. Elizabeth Warren said Sunday that she changed her mind recently and took a DNA test proving her heritage because Americans' trust in government is "at an all-time low" and she wanted to help rebuild it by being transparent.
>The incumbent Massachusetts senator spoke at her second debate against Republican state Rep. Geoff Diehl in the U.S. Senate race.
>Diehl shot back that the issue "is not about Sen. Warren's ancestry, it's about integrity in my mind, and I don't care whether you think you benefited or not from that claim, it's the fact that you tried to benefit from that claim that I think bothers a lot of people and it's something you haven't been able to put to rest since the 2012 campaign".
>Trump's silent presence dominated the debate, with Diehl saying it's "obvious" she doesn't want to be senator, but rather, president. "She's been campaigning in states that are more important to her than Massachusetts," he said.

Pathetic attempt at what? Why would anyone care if she's part Native American or not?
My heritage according to Ancestry DNA is almost completely English and Scotch with a smidgen of Scandinavian thrown in. What's interesting to me is that nothing in my DNA relates to the maternal side of the family and yet my grandmother was French. My mom had olive toned skin and so do I. Why didn't my Native American ancestry show up in the test? Supposedly I'm 1/16 Cherokee Indian. Genealogical DNA tests are likely less than accurate. Oh, and doesn't olive skin make me a person of color?

I don't give a hoot about Elizabeth Warren. I couldn't care less whether she's 10th generation Native American or 6th generation. If she landed a University professorship because she checked the minority box on her application or better yet as woman of color and university HR didn't question it, shame on them both.
My point in mentioning the possible inaccuracy of my DNA test results was that however popular DNA testing has become, I don't put a lot of stock in it.

Well yeah, the picture of the obviously northern european white guy sorta gave it away. Olive skin is not the same as a white guy with a lifetime of sun exposure.
I'm not going to take the time to put a picture of you next to a real olive skinned person, but this is Warren-esque delusion to be sure. ;D

Now you've got me curious about this. Maybe the dermatologist is wrong. Ever read anything about the Fitzpatrick Scale? It appears that I fall somewhere between III and IV on it. My eyes are hazel green which is a feature of type III, every other feature is type IV; "rarely burns, tans to a moderate brown." To avoid my skin looking yellowish, I occasionally use a tanning bed (helps with mood too). On average, there are 68 sunny and 74 partly days per year in Portland. :) :)

Elizabeth Warren listed race as 'American Indian' in newly revealed Texas State Bar card from 1986
Massachusetts Democratic Sen. Elizabeth Warren indicated that her race was "American Indian" in a handwritten registration form filed in 1986 with the Texas State Bar, according to a new report on Tuesday that documents the presidential hopeful's efforts to identify as a minority during her earliest days as a law professor.
The revelation, initially reported by The Washington Post, is the first known instance of Warren claiming Native American ancestry in her own handwriting. It threatened to add more ammunition to already-frequent attacks by Republicans, including President Trump, deriding Warren for claiming such ancestry to bolster her academic career.
Warren's office, questioned by The Post, did not dispute the authenticity of the bar card.

Think about. Repubs have no clue who's going to even make it to the primary as serious contenders. Does anyone think their gonna blow their load before then, or the general election? This stuff is like pre-cum. Carries the potential to create a fetus to abort, but it's unlikely ;)

Elizabeth Warren Says ‘American Indian’ Race Claim Based on ‘Family Stories’
6 Feb 2019
On Wednesday afternoon, 2020 Democratic presidential hopeful Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) cited her childhood as the reason for claiming “American Indian” as her race on a 1986 Texas State Bar registration card.
Warren said, “This was about 30 years ago, and I am not a tribal citizen, tribes and only tribes determine citizenship. When I was growing up in Oklahoma, I learned about my family the same way most people do. My brothers and I learned from our mom and our dad and our brothers and our sisters, and those were our family stories. But that said, there really is an important distinction of tribal citizenship. I am not a member of a tribe. I have apologized for not being more sensitive to that distinction. It’s an important distinction.”
Warren was born on June 22, 1949. At the time she filled out the document, she was 36.
When asked about critics arguing this was a “knowing attempt to get ahead” by using a false claim of ancestry, Warren said, “So, that is a claim that has been fully investigated. And it has now been shown completely that nothing about my background ever had anything to do with any job I got in any place. It’s been fully documented. And there’s no evidence of any kind other than it had nothing to do, my background had nothing to do.”
When asked if other documents will surface, Warren said, “Look, this is who I grew up believing with my brothers — this is our family’s story and it’s all consistent from that point in time, but as I said, it’s important to note I’m not a tribal citizen and I should have been more mindful of the distinction with tribal citizenship and tribal sovereignty.”
She continued, “So all I know is during this time period, this is consistent with what I did because it was based on my understanding from my family’s stories but family stories are not the same as tribal citizenship.”
She added, “My apology is an apology for not having been more sensitive about tribal citizenship and tribal sovereignty. I really want to underline the point, tribes and only tribes determine tribal citizenship. It is an issue of tribal sovereignty.”

Her failed socialist bs is worse than her lies about being an Indian
-
So from that article I gathered that her family is liars or just like Dems goes along with whatever nonsense they're told until forced to confront reality.
The other thing I found interesting was her choice of words....her positions and such had nothing to do with her background which to me is a person's work and accomplishments that allow them to get better opportunities. I think that's true. Her background did not allow for or create those opportunities.
Her being "American Indian" did however, because of programs for reparations to Native Americans were/are rightfully in place to help them along. She knowingly took advantage of the system, and continued to do it as she increased her political aspirations. Unfortunately for her, she got caught. As a result, she has no shot. Even CNN, Yahoo, and other MSM is going after her on this albeit more lightly than if it was a Republican.
She and her counterparts want to create more systems for people like her to exploit that will bankrupt us, and kill the American entrepreneurial dream.

Her campaign has to effectively be over.
With Biden, Clinton and even Sanders(at this point) not exactly chomping at the bit to jump in, this field of contenders is looking rather paltry and underwhelming in terms of star power.

Instagram Purges Photo of Elizabeth Warren Claiming ‘American Indian’ Race on Professional Document

CAMBRIDGE, MA - DECEMBER 31: Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA), addresses the media outside of her home after announcing she formed an exploratory committee for a 2020 Presidential run on December 31, 2018 in Cambridge, Massachusetts. Warren is one of the earliest potential candidates to make an official announcement in what …Scott Eisen/Getty; Inset: Washington Post
6 Feb 2019
Facebook’s photo-sharing platform Instagram recently deleted a post of Senator Elizabeth Warren’s Texas Bar registration form on which she states that she is an “American Indian.” The Platform called a photo of Warren’s registration “harassment or bullying.”
GOP national spokesperson Kayleigh McEnany took to Twitter recently to call out another social media platform — Facebook’s photo-sharing website Instagram. In her Twitter post, McEnany claims that Instagram deleted a post she made which featured a copy of Democratic Senator Elizabeth Warren’s Texas Bar registration form in which she states that she is an “American Indian.”

Instagram included a number of its community guideline rules in its message to McEnany informing her that they had deleted her post. The guidelines state that the social media site removes content that “targets private individuals to degrade or shame them.”
The rules further state that the social media site removes “content with personal information shared to harass or blackmail people,” however, any personal information such as Warren’s home address at the time of signing the bar registration had already been redacted in McEnany’s post.
Finally, Instagram notes that the website has a “zero tolerance policy when it comes to posts or threats to post intimate images of others.” It’s safe to say that McEnany’s post did not violate this particular rule in any way, however, the post was still removed by Instagram. Breitbart News has reached out to Instagram for comment on this issue and the platform’s decision to remove McEnany’s post but has not received a reply at the time of the writing of this article.
Breitbart News reported on Warren’s Bar of Texas registration form this week, with reporter Joshua Caplan stating:
The Washington Post obtained the registration card, which was previously undisclosed, during an open records request. As the Post noted, the card was handwritten using blue ink and signed by Warren. The card shows Warren wrote “American Indian” for her “race” and is dated April 1986. A spokesperson for the Massachusetts Democrat did not dispute the card’s authenticity, according to the newspaper.
…
In a brief statement with the Post, Warren once again apologized for claiming Native American heritage.
“I can’t go back,” she said. “But I am sorry for furthering confusion on tribal sovereignty and tribal citizenship and harm that resulted.”

I'm sure Instagram will delete negative pics of Trump as well. ::)

She's done. Not only for this but she's also not radical enough. The Dem candidates are in an arms race to see who can be more nutso.

I have no desire to look up anything on her, but I'm curious if someone knows if she actually practiced law or not.
Wouldn't lying on a bar registration card invalidate any ruling she was involved with as an attorney or judge?

If I were sitting in prison I would be appealing the ruling no doubt.

Alito appeared to reference Elizabeth Warren when he asked about 'family lore' on Native American ancestry during Supreme Court affirmative action case
Insider via Yahoo ^ | October 31, 2022 | Rebecca Cohen
Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito appears to reference Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren in a line of questioning about Native American ancestry as the Supreme Court hears a major case on affirmative action.
Oral arguments began Monday in a case to determine whether colleges can continue to take race into consideration in the admissions process.
Alito asked North Carolina Solicitor General Ryan Park — who is defending affirmative action policies at the University of North Carolina — what is preventing students from claiming heritage they don't have.
"It's family lore that we have an ancestor who was an American Indian," Alito offered.
Park agreed that in that instance, it would not make sense for a student to say they are of American Indian heritage.
Alito replied: "I identify as an American Indian because I've always been told that some ancestor back in the old days was an American Indian."
Park conceded, agreeing that it is unlikely that the student was telling the truth.
Alito appeared to be referring to Warren, who identified herself as an American Indian on a Texas registration card for the State Bar of Texas and in documents while working at Harvard, according to the Washington Post.
Warren made a public apology in 2019 during her run for president after she took a DNA test to prove Indigenous ancestry.
During oral arguments in the affirmative action case at the Supreme Court on Monday, Alito pressed Park on the justification for "lumping together" students from similar racial backgrounds together by having them check a box.
"What is the justification for lumping together students whose families came from Afghanistan with someone with students whose families came from China?" Alito asked.
