Just wait until Black History Month and St. Patrick’s Day.

At least she covered her ass by making it so many generations ago that, if the DNA test is a bust, there will be an explanation.

It’s a trap! Go back! She wants everybody to make fun of her before she reveals her great uncle, Rabbi Misha Ocasio-Rabinowitz-Cortez, of the Westchester Rabinowitz-Cortezes.

I'm warning you all - she knows how to play the media game.

The Jews that were expelled from Spain by her other ancestors.

Excellent! . . . The Catholic ancestors who kicked out the Jewish ancestors for siding with the Moslem oppressors--who may have been her ancestors as well--who were trying to eradicate her Catholic ancestors.

My ancestors were Sephardic, too. Maybe I should have run for Congress. I'm somewhat less goofy.

1492 was the year the first Congressman was inaugurated. DUH!!!

She got it confused with 1942 the year the Germans
bombed Pearl Harbor.

For an expelled Jew fleeing Spain, going to Puerto Rico would have been like a slave escaping from South Carolina and seeking refuge in Tennessee.

The first Jews to emigrate to New York City (1664) were Sephardim who had been in the Caribbean islands since 1492 or thereafter. I don't know if they were on Puerto (Porto) Rico specifically, but sometimes with empires, they just wink and kick you out to the far reaches where they don't have to think about you. A lot of Jews went to Holland and England as well.

Well then you wouldn't win if you live in a blue district. The dems have turned into circus freaks and the reputards are the scum out front shilling for them.

She’s about as Jewish as Elizabeth Warren is American Indian.

Yes, but “Jewish” cannot be determined through a DNA test. I guess she isn’t as stupid as we thought.

Just kidding.

She is an idiot.

One of the things that we discovered about ourselves is that a very, very long time ago, generations and generations ago, my family consisted of Sephardic Jews
More recent ancestors include Mister Edd.

Could very well be true. There were lots of Jews living in Spain during the Inquisition who converted to Christianity and moved to the New World. That’s why many Hispanics have names like Israel and Emmanuel. Lots of Hispanics who consider themselves to be Catholics light candles on Friday night and don’t eat pork, because that’s what their parents and grandparents did, and they never knew why. Then they found out they had Jewish ancestors.

It's possible she had Jewish ancestors who came to the New World. A number of Sephardic Jews became baptized and lived as Christians. A number ended up in New Mexico. Some kept reminders of their past, but well hidden.

I'm not saying it's true in her case, however, given that she can be a pathological liar.

Hillary Clinton also suddenly discovered Jewish ancestors when she was running for Senator of New York.
