Cherokee genealogist slams Elizabeth Warren’s ancestry claims as ‘ludicrous’


She cant say its republicans attacking her, this is the real deal, a real american indian telling her shes full of shit. If Warren was american indian she would gladly take a 100.00 DNA test to silence her critics. She knows shes full of shit and always has been.


A Cherokee genealogist on Wednesday dismissed Sen. Elizabeth Warren (https://www.washingtontimes.com/topics/elizabeth-warren/)’s claims of Indian ancestry as “ludicrous,” arguing that the Massachusetts Democrat “has no respect for true Native Americans.”
Twila Barnes, who has done extensive research into Ms. Warren (https://www.washingtontimes.com/topics/elizabeth-warren/)’s family tree, added that the high-profile progressive leader has angered some Native Americans by appearing to leverage her dubious heritage to advance her career.
“Some just laugh, because it’s so ludicrous. I mean, you know, she has no proof of anything,” Ms. Barnes said (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MJ5zrdmaUyw) on Fox’s “Tucker Carlson Tonight.”
“She’s a lawyer, and she’s supposed to understand you need proof, yet she keeps claiming,” said Ms. Barnes, whose research appears on the Thoughts from Polly’s Granddaughter website (http://www.pollysgranddaughter.com/). “Many are angry because they feel like she’s appropriating an identity to gain something from that. And she has no respect for true Native Americans.”
Ms. Warren (https://www.washingtontimes.com/topics/elizabeth-warren/)’s Cherokee heritage claims have dogged her during her 2018 re-election bid, thanks in large part to President Trump’s repeated referrals to the senator as “Pocahontas,” a nickname she has denounced as a “racial slur.”

Cletus explained once how it is that so many folks who are actually not genetically Indian nevertheless are somehow able to claim Cherokee ancestry, but I've forgotten what the explanation was.

What does that have to do with Warren's claim?

That revelation even if true doesnt apply here, Warren dug her own grave, she benefited greatly by claiming cherokee heritage.
If she knew she in fact was of cherokee blood she would readily take a 90.00 DNA test and end the attacks on her but she refuses and there is no meaningful explanation why other than she knows she has no indian blood.

She herself made these claims for years, this isnt the first genuine american indian to say she is a fraud.

Apparently we have a nest here, thankfully small
