What we learned today. The Boston Globe is a corrupt newspaper that was forced to issue two corrections to their story claiming that Elizabeth Warren was a Native American. It turns out her DNA test revealed that she is anywhere from 1/64 to 1/1024th fake injun. The average American is about 1/32 Indian. If you’ll remember back to 2012, Elizabeth Warren also claimed that she was a Cherokee Indian. Nothing was said about that, but Cherokee Nation is blasting Warren yet again for falsely claiming to be Native American and a Cherokee Indian. This has kind of been lost in the all media bluster about Warren’s DNA test results.
Here is the statement released by Cherokee Nation Secretary of State Chuck Hoskin Jr.
“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,” 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.”
