The hubris of this deluded woman. Imagine lying about your ethnicity to get minority benefits, subsequently getting caught and still carrying on like …… Pocahaontas.
That’s what you can expect from Democrats who never have to deal with an objective, critical press.
Warren’s political career has been followed by controversy about her self-identification as a Cherokee Indian. For decades she justified her claim to Native American ancestry in the absence of any evidence because she had “high cheek bones like all of the Indians do.” The Massachusetts senator went as far as to contribute recipes to an Indian cookbook titled “Pow Wow Chow,” labeling herself as a Cherokee under each.
Story continues below advertisementWhen gearing up for a presidential run in fall 2018, Warren released the results of a DNC test in an attempt to prove her ancestry after years of mockery from political rivals including President Donald Trump, who nicknamed the leftist senator “Pocahontas.”
The results failed to offer any proof of Warren descending from Native Americans, let alone the Cherokee tribe. The test merely revealed there was “strong evidence” to suggest she might have one Native American relative from six to 10 generations ago in her family history. Therefore, if she were to have a Native American relative, Warren would only be anywhere from 1/65 to 1/1,024 Native American, which is less than the average American today.
The Cherokee Nation, long offended by Warren’s ancestral claim to tribal ancestry, demanded Warren apologize in the aftermath of the test results and rescind her false assertions of blood association with the Native group. Warren has since apologized several times and said she no longer identifies as an American Indian. Yet still the DNC put her on its Native American panel today. (The Federalist)
The DNC shutting down the chat feature is ….. LOLZ.
DNC disables chatroom after trolls crash Warren appearance at Native American caucus meeting
By Emily Larsen, Political Reporter | August 18, 2020 06:01 PM
So many trolls flooded a Democratic Convention Native American Caucus meeting where Elizabeth Warren was slated to speak that organizers disabled a chatroom accompanying the livestreamed event.
The Trump campaign and other conservatives on social media pointed out that the Massachusetts senator would be speaking at the event on Tuesday while alluding to Warren’s previous claims to Native American ancestry.
Some critics of Warren noticed that the sidebar chat in the convention room was accessible to anyone, some on Twitter encouraged others to join and post criticisms of Warren.
Posters sent messages referencing Pocahontas, a slur that President Trump uses when talking about Warren; “1/1024,” a reference to the small amount of Native American ancestry Warren could have based on a 2018 DNA test that showed she has a Native American ancestor six to 10 generations ago; and sent dozens of snake emojis, a way of calling Warren a “snake.”
“Hi my name is Elizabeth Warren and I’m here to take your culture for my own personal benefit,” read one message from someone who identified as “Chief White Snake.”
Others in the chatroom condemned those bad-mouthing Warren.
“Please be respectful. No matter your opinion on Sen Warren’s heritage, she established one of the strongest platforms for Indian Country,” said an attendee identified as Dr. Aaron Payment. “Please do not alienate her. We need all the help we can get.”
Organizers were apparently trying to manage the flood of trolls. About a half-hour into the event, before Warren was slated to speak, organizers disabled the chat.
“They disabled the chat! We’ve singlehandedly set a new land speed record for bullying the DNC into silencing free speech!” one person who had been encouraging the trolls said in a tweet.
Warren has long faced intense criticism for her claims to Native American heritage and family lore that her parents eloped due to her mother being part “Cherokee and Delaware.” She listed herself as an “American Indian” on her Texas State Bar card and contributed recipes to a “Pow Wow Chow” cookbook. Trump often calls Warren “Pocahontas” in reference to the claims.
In 2018, Warren took and made public a DNA test that found she had overwhelming European ancestry and one Native American ancestor six to 10 generations back, making her as little as 1/1024 in Native American heritage. After enduring criticism, Warren repeatedly apologized for identifying herself as a minority.
In a speech at the event, Warren said that Trump disrespects Native American tribes, referencing his administration revoking reservation status for the Mashpee Wampanoag Tribe.
“I say it’s time to have a president who will fight even harder, but this time to protect Indian country. With Joe Biden in office, Indian country will not need to worry about that kind of disrespect any longer. Joe Biden understands and will honor the United States moral and legal obligations to tribal nations,” Warren said.
Warren was not the only non-Native American person to speak at the event. New Jersey Sen. Cory Booker also delivered a speech. The first two Native American women elected to Congress, Reps. Deb Haaland of New Mexico and Sharice Davids of Kansas, also spoke at the event.
