President Trump bringing up Sen. Elizabeth Warren and referring to her as “Pocahontas” at a White House event honoring Native American code talkers had the progressive senator from Massachusetts quickly rallying her supporters while trying to provide a brief explanation:

Anybody in the mainstream media care to delve deeper into Warren’s ancestry claims while she and her supporters cry “racism” on those mocking her?
Wow! @SenWarren sure is getting a lot of mileage out of the job she stole the Native American to use as a stepping stone. https://t.co/1Fv928jMIG

“The press,” including CNN’s Jim Acosta, are trying to fact-check what Trump said but don’t seem as interested in vetting Warren’s claims over the years.
