WASHINGTON – Sen. Elizabeth Warren batted down calls for her to take a DNA test to prove her Native American heritage in an interview that aired Sunday.

“I know who I am. And never used it for anything. Never got any benefit from it anywhere,” Warren said of her ancestry on NBC’s “Meet the Press.”

The Massachusetts Democrat has been under increased pressure to provide evidence of ​her ​Native American roots, with President Trump repeatedly mocking her as “Pocahontas” as recently as Saturday.

An editorial this month in Massachusetts’s Berkshire Eagle urged Warren to buy a DNA test for $99 to resolve the issue once and for all.

“All the senator needs to do is spit into a tube, wait a few weeks and get her answer,” the paper said.

Asked whether she’d take an ancestry test, Warren said she wants to hold onto the folklore of her parents’ love story...

Is that for real?

I couldn’t help but to notice that she went out of the way to put the ž in her last name to emphasize her Czech heritage.

And never used it for anything. Never got any benefit from it anywhere,

...didn’t she crow about this early on about putting this on her college application?

Yours: “Her name is LIEawatha. I’m surprised she doesn’t agree to a DNA test and then have someone else - an actual Indian - submit the genetic material.”

HA! Yes, she’s dumb as an old cow turd. But, Please, please don’t give her any ideas!

Of course she has taken the test. If it had shown she had Indian blood, she would release it and do a war dance.

Seems to me, some enterprising conservative could follow her to a coffee shop and wait til she discards her coffee cup, and...

Just sayin’.

The lie has come to light; why would she help confirm it?

She's probably proactively taken the test, and knows if the results are published it will confirm her "white lie / love story" deceptions.

If it had come back showing her to not be a liar, you'd bet your last dollar that she would go ahead with a public test showing everyone the results and that she had been right all along.

That, or she can't find a DNA-testing lab that she can buy off...

This is what happens when they make certain people a protected class with extra rights and entitlements.

She doesn’t want it revealed that she actually possess dog DNA. Most likely that of a Chihuahua. 8>)

Warren knows she has been telling a lie to qualify for extra benifits
that go with minorities.

The fact that she refuses a DNA test proves she has been lying.

She is to the Indians as Rachel Dolzeal(sp?) is to the blacks.

If she had no more proof than her parent’s “love story,” she had no business passing herself off as a minority on her professional applications.

*****************

Exactly. She has been totally exposed as being nothing more than an opportunistic liar.

Just as an aside - we have a photograph taken over a 100 years ago of my mother’s great grandmother. She was Indian/Native American/First Nations - whatever the preferred term is. That makes my mother 1/16 NA. Disclaimer - I know next to nothing about DNA, but have read that women test differently sometimes as compared to men. We did the Ancestry. com DNA test due to my mom’s interest in genealogy. Results were lots of Irish/English/French, and “> 1% African. No NA percentage at all. Then I saw this : :https://www.chicksonright.com/2017/12/11/dna-testing-company-admits-giving-white-people-fake-african-ancestry-to-screw-with-racists/

So I don’t know how Ms. Warren would test, but I’m sure they would use someone more accurate than Ancestry. If she ever were to agree....
