Line 29:
Line 29: − − ==Cultural appropriation== − Warren claimed her parents eloped because her father's family did not want him to marry a woman who was part Native American. − − Warren was a lateral hire onto the faculty of the Harvard Law School in 1995 after having listed herself as a minority of American Indian (specifically, Cherokee) descent, despite her fair-skinned appearance and a lack of persuasive documentary evidence for her claim to minority status.<ref>[https://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/fact-checker/post/everything-you-need-to-know-about-the-controversy-over-elizabeth-warrens-claimed-native-american-heritage/2012/09/27/d0b7f568-08a5-11e2-a10c-fa5a255a9258_blog.html?utm_term=.367f03c92d5d Detailed summary of Warren's claimed minority status]</ref> The fair-skinned Warren obtained [[affirmative action]] preferences by falsely claiming that she was of "[[American Indian]]" descent, when in fact her heritage does not support her claim under widely accepted standards.<ref>[http://blogs.telegraph.co.uk/news/timstanley/100165458/elizabeth-warrens-native-american-claims-if-she-was-a-republican-the-media-would-call-her-a-racist/ "Elizabeth Warren's 'Native American' claims: if she was a Republican, the media would call her a racist."]</ref> When President [[Donald Trump]] ridiculed Warren's false claims of American Indian ancestry and challenged her to prove it by taking a DNA test, she responded by falsely branding Trump as a "racist". She released the results of a DNA test obtained at Stanford University in October 2018 initially claiming her as having between 1/64th and 1/512th Indigenous ancestry, but was later revealed to be as little as 1/1024th ancestry, not even involving American Indian DNA samples, but instead samples from Mexico, Peru and Colombia.<ref name="Warren meltdown">[https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2018/10/15/elizabeth-warren-melts-down-in-wake-of-dna-disaster/ Elizabeth Warren Melts Down in Wake of DNA Disaster] at Breitbart News Network</ref> − − ===Cherokee nation rejects her claims=== − − The Cherokee Nation repudiated Warren's attempts to link herself to them through DNA testing in this statement: − − {{cquote|A DNA test is useless to determine tribal citizenship. Current DNA tests do not even distinguish whether a person's ancestors were indigenous to North or South America. Sovereign tribal nations set their own legal requirements for citizenship, and while DNA tests can be used to determine lineage, such as paternity to an individual, it is not evidence for tribal affiliation. Using a DNA test to lay claim to any connection to the Cherokee Nation or any tribal nation, even vaguely, is inappropriate and wrong. It makes a mockery out of DNA tests and its legitimate uses while also dishonoring legitimate tribal governments and their citizens, whose ancestors are well documented and whose heritage is prove. Senator Warren is undermining tribal interests with her continued claims of tribal heritage.<ref>[https://www.kjrh.com/news/local-news/cherokee-nation-issues-statement-on-sen-elizabeth-warren-s-dna-test-results Cherokee Nation issues statement on Sen. Elizabeth Warren's DNA test results]</ref>}} − − In response to having her American Indian ancestry claims publicly discredited, Warren went on an erratic and unhinged Twitter rant, falsely accusing Trump of making "creepy physical threats" against her and making other false allegations against him.<ref name="Warren meltdown"/> Despite Warren being proven as a fraud by the DNA test, however, the liberal media (including [[CNN]], [[CNBC]], [[NPR]] and the ''[[Washington Post]]'') continues to unquestioningly stand by her lies and false ancestral claims and to attack her critics, including Trump, by falsely accusing them of "racism", which serves only to further discredit both themselves and Warren in the process.<ref>[https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2018/10/dna-tests-prove-elizabeth-warren-only-has-1-1024th-indian-heritage-and-is-a-fraud-liberal-media-reports-the-opposite/ DNA Tests Prove Elizabeth Warren Only Has 1/1024th Indian Heritage and Is a Fraud — Liberal Media Reports the Opposite] at the Gateway Pundit</ref> − − ===Criticism from Democrats=== − Many Democrats criticized Warren's stunt two weeks before the [[2018 Midterm elections]]. Warren was not even on the ballot, yet the fraud affected voter enthusiasm and fundraising. − − ===Mental fitness=== − Like [[Rachel Dolezal]], a white [[NAACP]] official who insisted that she was [[African American]], many have questioned Elizabeth Warren's mental fitness to hold office as a bitter clinger to her appropriated cultural identity despite [[science]] proving her delusional.
