And maybe people are rising up to defend Warren, not that she needs it, but because the situation is an exemplification of truth to abused power. You know, a perfect example of why everyone needs defending from this imposter of a leader and that he can be called out by truth and that his propaganda can be stopped.
oh i see....ya....huh?

Lindsey Graham: I’m taking a DNA test to see if I’m more Native American than Elizabeth Warren

Just one wrinkle: What if his test comes back showing that he’s actually less Native American than Warren is? That would help her save face after yesterday’s disaster by letting her claim that she’s at least a smidgen more native than her Republican antagonists are.

Graham doubtless views it as a low-risk gamble, though. After all, it’s basically impossible to be less Native American than Elizabeth Warren.

Trump's tweets are excellent-

Pocahontas (the bad version), sometimes referred to as Elizabeth Warren, is getting slammed. She took a bogus DNA test and it showed that she may be 1/1024, far less than the average American. Now Cherokee Nation denies her, “DNA test is useless.” Even they don’t want her. Phony!

Thank you to the Cherokee Nation for revealing that Elizabeth Warren, sometimes referred to as Pocahontas, is a complete and total Fraud!

Warren's lineage was traced back to 1824; no Native Americans. The Cherokee of whom she claimed heritage checked their records; no relatives of Warren were found. At this point, it's looking like her mother lied to her about their ancestry.


When I was growing up, my mother used to joke "You know you aren't the milkman's kid, because your feet are exactly like your father's feet" (and they were). I knew I was my mother's kid, if for no other reason than I have the exact same wave in my hair as my maternal grandmother (and I'm a guy). I got my hair cut a few days ago, and I mentioned that 'same wave as my grandmother' to my stylist.

That would be damn near statistically impossible.

Oops.





And yet, she still did it anyway.

Some family members saying that you're NDN does not make you NDN, but that didn't stop her from making the claim for years...


Simple fact: She. Lied.

There are no reference population for Native American tribes in the USA to compare to it's not about percentage you folks that harp on percentages are clueless about what the evidence shows it's about a 13.4CM segment that plots halfway between the first Nations tribes of Canada and the various Native tribes south of the border her segment plotted as expected for an Amerindian segment with origins in the USA. Again you post false factually incorrect information because you lack understanding on the basics of the information. The finding corroborate that Warren did indeed inherit a segment of DNA from an Amerindian with origins in the USA. She likely has other Amerindian ancestors in addition to the one she inherited the 13.4CM in a genealogical time frame but did not inherit those segments. That's how it works.

It might have been something which caused her parents to elope but it wasn't because anyone was Native American because they were both white and had noted themselves as white.
And didn't someone post a video in this thread (or another thread) with Senator Warren talking about her mother's rejection by her father's family re the Native American issue ?..............

LMAO

I have no use for Graham but this would be awesome. He should use Warren's same DNA guy too. Film it like a documentary.
