'''Elizabeth Warren''' is the senior [[Democrat Party|Democrat]] [[U.S. Senate|United States Senator]] from [[Massachusetts]] having defeated [[Republican]] [[Scott Brown]] in the 2012 election. Prior to that Warren was appointed by [[Barack Obama]] as special adviser to Treasury Secretary [[Timothy Geithner]],<ref name=wsj /> where she ran "the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau." <ref>[http://www.ornery.org/essays/warwatch/2010-09-19-1.html Obama Spits on the Constitution]</ref>
Warren has gained a reputation as a rancorous [[partisan]] Democrat and [[demagogue]]. She was the original mastermind of the "You didn't build that business" speech, later infamously used by Obama. Her alleged [[progressive]] credentials were exposed as hypocrisy when she flatly refused to support Sen. [[Bernie Sanders]] in 2016 Democrat presidential primaries. Warren became an outspoken apologist for the corrupt [[Clinton Foundation]] [[corporate]] contributors and pay-to-play activities.
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. "Elizabeth Warren's 'Native American' claims: if she was a [[Republican]], the [[liberal media|media]] would call her a racist."<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/</ref>
She was a lateral hire onto the faculty of the Harvard Law School in 1995 after having listed herself as a minority of American Indian 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 pride of Harvard Law School, Ms. Warren is a hero to the political left for proposing a new bureaucracy to micromanage the services that banks can offer consumers. But she is also so politically controversial that no less a liberal lion than Connecticut Senator [[Chris Dodd]] has warned the White House that she probably isn't confirmable."<ref name=wsj>[http://online.wsj.com/article_email/SB10001424052748703440604575495681843430198-lMyQjAxMTAwMDEwODExNDgyWj.html Elizabeth III - Obama to Senate: Stick that in your advice and consent clause.]</ref>
