"Elizabeth Warren refuses DNA test to prove her Native Americaness"


          

I like Warren but the Pocahontas shit is hilarious.

https://www.cnn.com/2018/03/12/politics/elizabeth-warren-native-american-dna-test/index.html

"Let me tell you the story of my family. ... My daddy first saw my mother when they were both teenagers. He fell in love with this tall, quiet girl who played the piano. Head over heels. But his family was bitterly opposed to their relationship because she was part Native American," Warren, D-Massachusetts, told "Meet the Press." Her parents, she said, eventually eloped.”

These days with so many people using Ancestry and places like that, it’s a little funny to hear she won’t privide scientific evidence.

Folks tell all types of stories that embellish the truth when talking about family.

I know it’s just a distraction from more important things but this is politics and this type of story always “trumps” the real issues.


****************
TBH the fact that you're even a mod here fits squarely within Jag's narrative of OK-sanctioned aggression, bullying, and toxicity. *shrug*
