First, the media tried as best it could to make a victory out of Elizabeth Warren’s DNA test that showed she had probably 1/1024th Native American heritage, and now, all week long, we’ve been reading hot takes in the mainstream media defending Warren’s claim that she was fired from her teaching gig for being visibly pregnant — even though video of her suggests it was entirely her decision, and minutes from the school board meeting at which she resigned show otherwise.
The New York Times said Republicans questioning Warren’s authenticity was a “sexist trope.” CNN did a story on Warren’s pregnancy story, saying it was was one “too many women already know” — but was Warren among them? USA Today took the “Republicans pounced” angle, saying the GOP had “latched on to the changes in Warren’s account.” The Washington Post went to Twitter for proof, saying that “women reality checked [conservatives] on social media.”
They’re a bit late, but The Daily Beast has finally come to Warren’s defense, assuming not only that her story of being fired is true, but accusing the principal of covering it up, essentially.
"The principal fired Warren for being pregnant but kept no record. Golly gee, you mean men who do creepy s***t to women don't always write it down?" says @lcsenecal https://t.co/NSVA3uwCkQ

She’s on video saying the opposite.

The press is going all out to claim a lie isn’t a lie. https://t.co/akvSczcBrN

2007 Elizabeth Warren is complicit in that principal's coverup.

It is unbelievable when there is video of her saying the opposite.

This is incorrect. Minutes from the school board state she was offered a second year on her "emergency" teaching contract, though she had not completed her required classes to be a certified teacher. The next month, the minutes show that she "respectfully" refused the contract.

Then why did the School Board vote unanimously to offer her a second year? GTFOOH

The principal made Liz record a coverup video 40yrs later. What a devious boss.

Warren herself has given contradictory statements, maybe she should write things down

There are two videos that I have seen where she tells a different story than the once she pushes now. She is a liar. Stop making excuses for her.

Weird that she’s on record saying that your article is a lie.

Man you all really are carrying the water for her huh?

Well, Joe Biden’s sinking … they have to protect the frontrunner.
Except she said a different story in the past…

She’s a lying fraud

Its not about pregnant women in the work force..its about her continued need to lie and appear to be a victim to appease her base of the victimhood brigade..
