So after a few years of being mocked for claiming native ancestry it looks like Elizabeth Warren actually has native blood in her

It ain't much but given the one drop of blood rule our resident conservatives are familiar with it's safe to say she can't attend any Klan rallies

Sen. Elizabeth Warren has taken the extraordinary step of releasing DNA test results that provide “strong evidence” that she has Native American ancestry, the Boston Globe reports. The possible Democratic presidential contender for 2020 has been repeatedly mocked by Donald Trump and other Republicans over her ancestral claims—one of Trump’s sick jokes is to call Warren “Pocahontas.” The Globe reports Warren said she wanted to eliminate questions about her ancestry and plans to release the results far and wide Monday. The analysis of Warren’s DNA was reportedly done by Carlos D. Bustamante, a Stanford University professor, and shows that she had a Native American in her family tree dating back six to 10 generations.

this isn't about how much native she is it's about showing that her career and success weren't based on using it. Which was already shown with an investigative piece a while back

the timing is bait for Trump to go out on the campaign trail and screw up by attacking her too harshly and inadvertently insulting natives right before the midterms

I personally don't play gatekeeper, I appreciate her voice on bringing awareness to native issues including sexual abuse rates on women and girls on tribal land at her level within politics

between 1/32 and 1/512, and within the margin of testing error.
Claiming you're 0.02% cherokee has been a ridiculed cliche for a long time.

About 95% of white americans are more black than elizabeth warren is red. Better open the floodgates of black scholarships.
heck, she's got less than the average white american admixture of 0.18% native american DNA.

Liberal BS at it's finest.

WASHINGTON — Senator Elizabeth Warren has released a DNA test that provides “strong evidence’’ she had a Native American in her family tree dating back 6 to 10 generations, an unprecedented move by one of the top possible contenders for the 2020 Democratic nomination for president.

Warren, whose claims to Native American blood have been mocked by President Trump and other Republicans, provided the test results to the Globe on Sunday in an effort to defuse questions about her ancestry that have persisted for years. She planned an elaborate rollout Monday of the results as she aimed for widespread attention.

The analysis of Warren’s DNA was done by Carlos D. Bustamante, a Stanford University professor and expert in the field who won a 2010 MacArthur fellowship, also known as a genius grant, for his work on tracking population migration via DNA analysis.

He concluded that “the vast majority” of Warren’s ancestry is European, but he added that “the results strongly support the existence of an unadmixed Native American ancestor.”





Ooh, another university professor from California, has evidence he won't even say for a fact is true, against something a republican has said or done. Man, but this sounds familiar.

Do you ever have anything else to say other than “oh fuck liberals wah wah they offend me I hate them waah.”
You sound like an overgrown child who doesn’t have a single free-thought in your empty head.

Warren is just another white person looking for some acknowledgement for being 1/35 Native American.
All these moronic white people who want to belong to something and latch onto being a Native American... it’s fucking pathetic.

Not suprised the trumpsoxxers are hating this news, while they are praising their lord of the lyings (king of the tax bill) this woman definitely destroyed the memes against her.

1/6 to 1/10 generation is relevant, even if it's the grand mother of the grand mother, she definitely has native american blood in her vein. The true historical north americans.


Something hard happened in the tipi, stick to it and get good guys, thats the truth !
