I am so glad that Big Chief Elizabeth Warren is finally being forced to confront the fact that she claimed to be an American Indian, when she’s denied it for years.
Here she is apologizing again after her Texas Bar form was revealed yesterday:

A reporter actually asked her why she listed herself that way, and she claimed that’s what she always believed from her family:
Democratic Sen. Elizabeth Warren apologizes for calling herself “American Indian”: “There really is an important distinction of tribal citizenship. I am not a member of the tribe and I have apologized for not being more sensitive to that distinction” https://t.co/fLDZs9Xfkw pic.twitter.com/6rS6vVq15S

Even if Warren really believed she was 1/32nd Cherokee Indian growing up, which she clearly wasn’t, why would she list that for her race? Doesn’t 1/32nd equate to like 3%, and that’s what she goes with? Yeah I’m not buying it.
This story is going to haunt her throughout her run for president. Right now her Democrat competitors, Booker and Harris, aren’t criticizing her for it at all. But let things heat up into next year, if Warren lasts that long, and I guarantee they will.
Here’s a great video to watch on this madness from America Rising PAC:
