Boston Globe Botches Math Correction on Elizabeth Warren DNA Test Story

Unfortunately for Warren, the DNA test only proved she shares no more American Indian heritage than the average white American.

[TigerClaws]

Genius!

Thanks for my laugh of the day.

[Kartographer]

I agree with you. RELEASE THE MEMES!

[fortheDeclaration]

Yes, but Twitter counters all of that. She is now becoming a joke.

[RedMonqey]

If the media had any integrity left, which it doesn’t, it would report that the average American white man in has the same amount of ‘indian” blood.

As it is, Warren should be written derisively about in the same way as Biden’s “Welsh mining ancestors.

But they won’t. Only if they were Republicans who put their dogs on their car...

I have more Indian in me by virtue of the beef curry I ate last night.

Let’s do some math here. If her “native American” ancestor goes back 10 generations, where does that get us? We’re talking her 8G grandparent. I am 3 years older than Liz. My 8G grandfather was born in 1630, about the time of the Puritans’ Great Migration. So, sure she can list “native American” as her race. Makes perfect sense.

Pres Trump was just live on TV. Reporter asked him if he was going to pay up now that Sen Warren proved she was native American? Trump: what was she, one onethousandth? Reporter:I don't know. Trump:Get back to me when you know. Meanwhile I wouldn't believe it unless I did the test myself. 😂😂

[Fido969]

Leftie media is already firming up the meme that her Indian heritage has now been “proven”.

[shelterguy]

She got a job at Harvard or somewhere because she was a minority, right?

They require a certain percentage of ethnicity for that. 1/1000 won.t work. She committed a fraud on that one.

Same on many federal projects I’ve been on.

[beaversmom]

She’s still a loony toon, lyin’, opportunistic, Fauxcahontas propagandist. I don’t care if she has a homeopathic level of Injun in her. I could stand next to an Indian and have as much.

[dead]

I agree completely. Her latest attempt to get out ahead of it backfired completely. It brought it all back up and proved the opposite of what she intended it to prove.

It was a bigger “own goal” than Booker’s Spartacus moment. It’s Dukakis in the tank.

[Dilbert56]

I think “averages” are misleading. Either you had a native American ancestor or you didn’t. It’s like the average person has one enlarged breast and one testicle.

[Oscar in Batangas]

Never EVER confuse Journalism with Rocket Science or Brain Surgery

[hal ogen]

“...no more than...”??? No...actually she is considerably less than the average American. 1 out of 1024. What a fraud and integrity-free liar. Apparently, she enjoys stealing from and disrespecting Native Americans. How dare she? The Cherokee Nation issued a rebuke of her fraud and disrespect.

[Repeat Offender]

This is absurd and ridiculous. I am a total of 15% Native American, including North America and Central America and Inuit but mostly English and Welsh. I had all three DNA companies research me and the results were the same. I mark the census reports as white.

That's just because you're trying to take advantage of your 85% white privilege. True minorities like Squaw Swamp Beaver are proud of their heritage. /s
