We really, truly think that Sen. Elizabeth Warren actually thinks that a DNA test revealing she might be 1/1024th Native American is proof of her claim to Native American heritage — even though the Cherokee Nation itself is disputing that delusion and taking it as the insult it is.
And we’ve already seen that a 1997 Fordham Law Review piece described Elizabeth Warren as Harvard Law School’s “first woman of color.” Wonder where they got that idea? Is that what she told them, or did she wear native garb and bring in a dish from the “Pow Wow Chow” cookbook to which she contributed and they just assumed?
We’ve had a lot of posts on Warren being hammered today over what she somehow considered a big win, but we have to hand it to the Daily Caller’s Benny Johnson for compiling this epic list of Elizabeth Warren lies. Enjoy …
Every Time Elizabeth Warren Has Lied About Her Native American Heritage:
(Thread)
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. Here is a photo of Warren's mom: pic.twitter.com/B2zSHdNkXL

Here is video of Warren telling this story: "My mom and dad were very much in love and they wanted to get married. My father's parents said 'Absolutely not because she's part Cherokee and Delaware.' After fighting it they eloped." pic.twitter.com/3lGCf9xGmY

5. Warren submitted multiple recipes for the Indian cookbook “Pow Wow Chow” and signed her name, “Elizabeth Warren – Cherokee” pic.twitter.com/Fr3ECGsUa2

6. Warren used offensive, racially charged language to defend her claims of Native American heritage, declaring that her family had “high cheekbones” like “all the Indians do.”

7. Warren has now claimed that she *may* have 1/1024th Indian DNA. This is equally problematic since DNA science proves that the average white American has .18% Indian DNA, far more that Warren's .098% (lowest estimate according to study) https://t.co/tNwZcdIDeS
— Benny (@bennyjohnson) October 15, 2018
8. Multiple members of Warren's direct family have disputed her claims of a "proud Native American heritage." They deny the Senator's Indian heritage stories fervently:https://t.co/iF53pWxymP
— Benny (@bennyjohnson) October 15, 2018
9. Warren's DNA report did not measure actual Native American DNA. The report actually measured Colombian, Mexican and Peruvian DNA. Of which Warren *may* have a tiny, tiny fraction – possibly. pic.twitter.com/SK7LExbawl

10. It is very difficult to argue that Warren did not commit racial fraud. She used the advantages in the system to advance her career with no evidence (to this day) that she is actually Native American. Democrats defending her behavior on this point is dubious – at best.

We’ve heard a lot of these before, but it’s great to have them all in one place, with video.
Amazing thread. You think if a conservative lied about their heritage, presumably for special treatment throughout their career, that the media would give them the pass they have given Warren? Not for one second! https://t.co/hwUTlkH81J

But you are hating on 1/1024th of @senwarren's guts with this awesome thread. https://t.co/tFdRP13uE3

Great thread! This woman is a liar and a disgrace. If this is the best the Dems have for the 2020 race, @realDonaldTrump will win spectacularly and I am calling it now! https://t.co/ea8ydA341o

BRUTAL thread. Cory Booker & Kamala Harris will bury Warren in 2020. https://t.co/czfmQhQ0bi

Yet another negative (embarrassing) result of identity politics.. When someone feels the need to conflate *maybe* having 1/1024th Native American DNA as being an actual Native American, something’s wrong.
The more identity matters, the less IDEAS matter.

As someone who actually is a bit Indian from both parents, politics aside, I find her offensive. To take advantage and benefit from such “stolen heritage” is criminal. #stolenheritage #100percentnuts. @realDonaldTrump @elizabethforma @marc_angell https://t.co/upCpJ69RP2

This thread shows cultural appropriation to the highest degree…but somehow she continued to get a pass… ??♂️ https://t.co/jimMYDw9ov

You gotta give props to Elizabeth Warren for carrying on this charade for as long as she has. She's committed if anything — clearly a liar, but committed. https://t.co/uj4rsaad5K

She persisted.
