Elizabeth Warren Makes Surprise Appearance At Native American Conference

WASHINGTON - Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) made a surprise appearance at a Native American conference on Tuesday.

Warren spoke at the National Indian Women’s “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 Tuesday’s 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.

The “aggrieved” groups don’t seem to care, so long as they can get power over the offending parties

Yup. Right now tribes are likely vying with each other to offer her a certificate of heritage in exchange for a head seat at the goodie table should she be elected.

Leftists NEVER acknowledge shame. They just move right on. Here Warren seeks to steal validity/respect from these shallow women, to erase her negative exposure on the issue of her fraud.

“See, they don’t think it’s a problem. Why do you?”

This is a very shameful tactic.

To serve the expected crowds, a Port-a-Potty was brought in with a note of warning for any men that might wish to use it.

“This is a teepee for you to peepee,
not a wigwam to beat your tomtom.”

No, they don’t care. Northam could horse whip a shackled negro in the street and the media would smooth it all over, and make him even better!

“Warren received a standing ovation from tribal leaders and other Native attendees as she approached the stage.”

God, what an asshole. She’s embarrassed herself to the Nth degree and now shows up at this?! She’s almost as dumb as “Guam Will Tip Over” Hank Johnson.

Journalism is in trouble because they are fraudulent with word use. 150 isn’t teeming. 150 is your average Hillary rally.

There’s a reason the networks don’t care a Trump rally live. It’s like a Rolling Stones concert.
