WASHINGTON - Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) made a surprise appearance at a Native American conference on Tuesday.
Warren spoke at the National Indian Womens Supporting Each Other lunch, where she introduced Cheryl Andrews-Maltais, the chairwoman of the Wampanoag Tribe of Massachusetts. The event took place during an annual meeting of the National Conference of American Indians.
Warren received a standing ovation from tribal leaders and other Native attendees as she approached the stage. She called on Congress to take more action on Native issues, including the alarming number of missing and murdered indigenous women and girls, suicide rates among Native people, housing, health care and addiction.
Warren has faced criticism from some Native people, but certainly not all, over her claims to Native ancestry. She never claimed citizenship in a tribe.
She was warmly welcomed at Tuesdays event. She could barely make it through the crowd of about 150 people as she was trying to leave, with attendees swarming her for photos and hugs by the door.

Sen. Elizabeth Warren (the one with high cheek bones) is presented with a shawl of thanks from Native American women.
had to fight her way thru a teeming crowd of 150, wow, she’s tough. It’s probably the biggest crowd she’s ever had.
One thing that is becoming clear, between Warren’s falsely claiming to be a Native American on official documents in order to get special treatment, and Northam fighting blackface charges.....
The “aggrieved” groups don’t seem to care, so long as they can get power over the offending parties. Northam can survive by pushing reparations and throwing money and power to the minority groups, Warren can get a standing ovation by working for the policies of the native americans she offended, even if they don’t happen to be her constituents.

Best political investment Trump ever made
A few well-timed Tweets, and years later, Warren is still shooting herself in the foot over it.
One of these things is not like the other,
Scalp her!
“I just dropped in to see what condition my condition was in.”
Dang.
Beat me to it
It’s a refutation of poverty-mongering in the US when
the only skinny woman in this picture is a rich whitey.
LOL
What utter bullshit. A surprise? This was orchestrated and the press damn well knows it. The Huff Post is not a legitimate news organization.
Too much rouge on her high cheekbones.Rassssissss! Is this part of her apology tour?
OMG, F-troop used Brown-face!!!
Free stuff from whitey trumps everything.
They deserve each other
