Warren Releases DNA Results, Challenges Trump Over Native American Ancestry

[Smallcock]

A minute % of native DNA several generations back doesn't make her a native American. But Trump still owes her $1 million, based on his promise.

The jokes on him. :biggrin:

He duped her into swiftly destroying all her credibility all by herself. That's called winning. Pocahontas couldn't outsmart a gerbil. The joke, is exclusively on her.

She never was and never will be ready for the major leagues.

Warren Releases DNA Results, Challenges Trump Over Native American Ancestry

ASMA KHALID

In a rather unusual campaign move, Sen. Elizabeth Warren has released the results of a DNA test that says there is "strong evidence" of Native American ancestry dating back six to 10 generations, addressing a controversy that has followed her for years.

The results were part of an elaborate strategy to end questions about her ancestry, possibly in anticipation of a 2020 presidential bid. In addition to the DNA analysis that fit with family stories, Warren also released a campaign-style video with clips of President Trump mocking her and vignettes from her family history.

At a rally in Montana this past July, Trump taunted Warren for her claims of Native American ancestry, calling her "Pocahontas." He suggested that if he were to debate her in 2020, he would give her one of those take-home DNA kits "they sell on television for $2."

"I will give you a million dollars to your favorite charity paid for by Trump if you take the test and it shows you're an Indian," Trump added, as the crowd cheered. But on Monday morning, the president was asked about the challenge and falsely told reporters, "I didn't say that."

Warren, who has had a long-standing feud with the president, challenged him on Twitter Monday morning, asking that the bet be paid up to the National Indigenous Women's Resource Center.

After Trump denied making that $1 million pledge, Warren responded by tweeting, "Having some memory problems, @realDonaldTrump? Should we call for a doctor?"

Warren's DNA analysis, conducted by Stanford University researcher Carlos Bustamante, found that the "vast majority" of Warren's lineage is of European ancestry. But he also writes that the results "strongly support the existence of an unadmixed Native American ancestor in the individual's pedigree, likely in the range of 6-10 generations ago."

The Republican National Committee mocked Warren's disclosure, saying the test revealed only a "minuscule percentage" of Native American ancestry that still leaves unanswered questions.

"Senator Warren's latest 'disclosure' is a glaring signal that she recognizes this issue is going to be a major problem for her all-but-announced presidential campaign," said RNC spokesman Michael Reed in a statement. "Having as little as 1/512th Native American ties does not give you the right to claim minority status. And today's disclosure still does nothing to answer the question as to why she started checking the box as a minority in the years before she made it to the Ivy League, and went back to being white after being hired by Harvard Law."

The RNC also jumped on a correction from The Boston Globe. The paper originally reported that the probability of Warren's Native American ancestry ranges from 1/32 to 1/512, but now reports the low end of that range is actually 1/1,024.

The White House also tried to quickly dismiss the results. "I know that everybody likes to pick their junk science or sound science depending on the conclusion," White House adviser Kellyanne Conway told reporters Monday morning. "But I haven't looked at the DNA test, and it really doesn't interest me."

Bustamante, who received his doctorate from Harvard University and was awarded a MacArthur Foundation "genius grant," is widely respected in the field of genetics.

By taking the DNA test, Warren is showing how seriously she is considering a run for president. She's expected to easily win her re-election to the Senate this November and has said she'll take a "hard look" at the presidency after the midterms.

In September, Warren released personnel files from her appointments at various law schools in hopes of answering questions about whether she benefited from her Native American ancestry in hiring.

Warren has long been dogged with questions about her family history. They date back to her 2012 Massachusetts Senate race against Republican Scott Brown, who accused her of being dishonest about her heritage to get a professional edge.

'Elizabeth Warren' Highlights All Of The Senator's Positives
"Professor Warren claimed that she was a Native American, a person of color," he said during a debate. "And as you can see, she's not.

Warren responded by saying that her ancestry was family lore among relatives.

"As a kid, I never asked my mom for documentation when she talked about our Native American heritage. What kid would? But I knew my father's family didn't like that she was part Cherokee and part Delaware, so my parents had to elope," she said, reiterating that she hadn't gotten any benefits because of her heritage.

Warren has more specifically added in the past that her great-great-great grandmother was part Native-American.

Elizabeth Warren Savaged On Social Media As DNA Gambit Backfires; Cherokee Nation Furious
Update: The Cherokee Nation has issued a statement slamming Warren for her "continued claims of tribal heritage."

"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, who ancestors are well documented and whose heritage is prove. Senator Warren is undermining tribal interests with her continued claims of tribal heritage."

- Cherokee Nation Secretary of State Chuck Hoskin, Jr.

Elizabeth Warren just owned herself after releasing a DNA test confirming that she's as little as 1/1024th Native American - about half the percentage of the average white person.

So Elizabeth Warren is *possibly* 1/1024 (0.09%) Native American.

Scientists say the average European-American is 0.18% Native American. (https://www.nytimes.com/2014/12/25/science/23andme-genetic-ethnicity-study.html …)

That'd make Warren even less Native American than the average European-So Elizabeth Warren is *possibly* 1/1024 (0.09%) Native American.

What's more, the DNA expert she used, Stanford University professor Carlos Bustamente, "used samples from Mexico, Peru, and Colombia to stand in for Native American" as opposed to, say, DNA from a Cherokee Indian which Warren has claimed to be throughout her career.

Adding to the absurdity are two major corrections by the Boston Globe (which has become the media mouthpiece of Warren's 2020 damage control efforts of late), letting readers know that "Due to a math error, a story about Elizabeth Warren misstated the ancestry percentage of a potential 10th generation relative. It should be 1/1,024," and later updating it to "between 1/64th and 1/1,024th Native American."

The reactions to Warren's botched "reveal" have ranged from tenderfoot to savage

Elizabeth Warren has to go back 10 generations to find a non-white person in her family lineage. Warren is extremely, extraordinarily, almost completely white. Way whiter than the average whitey. That's the real headline here.

To give perspective on what 1/1024th Native American means, the Eastern Band of Cherokee Indians have a minimum of 1/16th degree of Cherokee blood for tribal enrollment, while the Bureau of Indian Affairs’ Higher Education Grant expects you to have a minimum of 1/4th . . . #MAGA

Hilariously, Warren’s only Native American ancestor may have actually lived at the time of Pocahontas.

So for all you who are clearly idiots, 1/1,024th means you're super dooper white. It means anyone with that % claiming to be Native American is a fraud. . . Reminds me of Da Nang Dick aka Senator Vietnevermind aka @SenBlumenthal. Cute stories that have nothing to do with facts.

Happy to see the Cherokee Nation stepping in on this Pocahontas clown and skewering her on her lies. Even the libtards will have to back down on this one now that the official voices are putting her in check.

2018 is such a special time - when fucking idiots like Pocahontas bless us with comedic entertainment while simultaneously retaining the support of the mainstream fake news media.

It's another "this is why Trump won" moment. Thank you!

Look folks,
The point is she said she had some native heritage. Trump and other Republicans said she did not. She took the test the test says that she does have native heritage.
She is right and Trump and his supporters are wrong.
End of story.

I see it clearly... the high cheekbones lol

But you're wrong. She said that she had Cherokee ancestry, among other whoppers. There is zero support for that claim and the others.

Somone close to her should help her by smacking the stupid out of her.

I don't think 0.2% of some North American indigenous qualifies as "grandfather was abused due to his heritage" as she claimed.

Or for her teaching resume.

She's so pure white German, Hitler would have married her.

Pocahontas is proof that little 'white' lies can take on a life of their own. Shame on her.

You use a stupid conspiracy website that makes no sense at all. We know that the biggest liar is this guy who lost the argument, because all he does is...........

Yes, we know that you love that guy!!

She is so blindingly white that the reflection of the sun off her skin burned my retina. I now see her for what she is - a red skinned Cherokee native.

Nice deflection. But she really did fuck this up. It was an attempt to get out ahead of what she saw coming as an issue that would dog her Presidential hopes.

That she did it before the mid terms was a mistake. It will splash over. That she gave Trump power over her by falling for his call for a DNA test makes her look weak.

And finally the DNA test makes her either look stupid or a liar. Take your pick.

Add in the roasting on the news and social media....

Toast.

Absolutely correct. Scientifically she won the argument. Now the Trumptard cult followers want to pick on certain technicalities. They then follow some alt right wing conspiracy website and now to them the Professor who is an expert, and confirmed her ancestry is "wrong". Some certain Cherokee Chief is the "expert" on this matter to them.

Pocahontas' lie is so fundamentally stupid that she makes Trump look like honest Abe.

She is a mentally ill doofus.

Sure.

Did Trump lie about his taxes?
Did he lie about contacting Putin to hack the election?

Your camp just can't figure out how the game is played. In this instance, democrats should admit that she's a moron and FIND SOMEONE BETTER. Instead you're all going to double down on support for a loser. Get with the program. Learn from 2016.

Yes, the timing is wrong as this is all about the mid terms and not the Presidential Elections.
But, you really follow some alt right website about how the DNA test makes her look to be a "Liar". Really, scientifically she DOES have the Native Indian Ancestry, and like the Obama Birther Conspiracy theory, the one who is proven to be wrong is TRUMP.......Your Cult Leader!!

Like I said, Warren does not stand a chance of being nominated. She never did. The only media "roasting" her is the usual Fox News, Breitbart and other alt right wing sites!!
