According to Pocahontas herself:
Bottom line: My heritage played no role in my hiring ever. The @BostonGlobe reviewed all the evidence. Their verdict? "At every step of her remarkable rise in the legal profession, the people responsible for hiring her saw her as a white woman."

I won't sit quietly for @realDonaldTrump's racism, so I took a test. But DNA & family history has nothing to do with tribal affiliation or citizenship, which is determined only only by Tribal Nations. I respect the distinction, & don't list myself as Native in the Senate.

What she had to say about Trump:
Speaking of family stories, @realDonaldTrump has one, too. It's the story of a second-generation tax cheat who was handed a $413 million inheritance through rich-guy loopholes and outright criminal fraud.

If @realDonaldTrump a cowardly elitist who has never known or cared what life is like for anyone who's ever lived outside of a skyscraper in Manhattan wants to talk about authenticity, well then, let's talk about who's REALLY pretending to be someone they're not.

She jumped through all of Trumps hoops, just to prove she has a tiny sliver of indian in her.

She looks worse now by proving him right. She would have been better off never taking the test at all.

Do people actually think that idiot cares what she says about him? Hell just come back at her with something else.

She has no chance against him.

You dont have to like Trump to see she cant beat him. She did exactly what he wanted, and shes the one that looks stupid once the results were shown.

You guys can shit on Trump all day, but this is another win for him...

She continues to claim Native ancestry even now using a DNA test result that shows that she likely has LESS native blood than an average white American. She is asking that Trump pays $1 million he promised in case she proves "she is Indian" therefore explicitly claiming that "she is Indian". LOL - and people still defend her.


What would make her Indian IYO?

She went hard on Twitter. Has he done one of his usual morning tweet fests in response?

Meanwhile lets see what an actual Native American chief has to say:

https://www.cherokee.org/News/Stories/20181015_Cherokee-Nation-responds-to-Senator-Warrens-DNA-test

TAHLEQUAH, Okla. Cherokee Nation Secretary of State Chuck Hoskin Jr. issued the following statement Monday in response to Senator Elizabeth Warrens DNA test claiming Native Heritage:

"A DNA test is useless to determine tribal citizenship. Current DNA tests do not even distinguish whether a persons ancestors were indigenous to North or South America," Cherokee Nation Secretary of State Chuck Hoskin Jr. said. "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 proven. Senator Warren is undermining tribal interests with her continued claims of tribal heritage."

Yeah Trump doesn't owe her shit

This quote is more about the difference between being ethnically Native American and being a member of a tribe. They are different. I'm not aware of her ever saying she was a tribal member only that she is ethnically Native American. I get saying that she is barely native but at what point does the needle switch from not native to native and what is that based on?

Actually, she owned herself by engaging with a bottom-of-the-barrel right-wing jibe and doing so insensitively enough to piss off the Cherokee. She was already doing the smart thing before: ignoring this idiocy. Now, she looks like an idiot and no one's mind is going to be changed by Trump welching on a pledge, because everyone either already knows he's a lying sack of garbage or has convinced themselves otherwise.

Sanders suggests a 90% tax on the rich to kick start the United Socialist States of America.

Basically if you're a millionaire or billionaire you get to keep ten cents out of every dollar you earned or stole.

Increasing the taxes won't really do the job. What really has to be done is close the loopholes.

Millionaires pay a lot of taxes. But billionaires don't. That's the problem.
