Elizabeth Warren Makes Surprise Appearance At Native American Conference
The Huffington Post ^ | February 12, 2019 | by Jennifer Bendery

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.

Is it a shawl of lies? Guess they’re not on the warpath over it. And, migrants from Central Asia?

They cheeered for her.

The Indians cheered for her.

Sorry, but, what a bunch of idiots.

She stole from them.

And they cheered her.

That’s about as stupid as you can get and not be a donut.

I read decades ago in an Archeology magazine that during a dig in Central America small toys with wheels had been found.

These are your typical minority leftists. They’ll bash conservatives and go after anyone of color who strays off the leftist plantation. Yet, they roll over like dogs for a lying, patronizing white leftist who faked her own racial background for monetary and career advantages by lying about being one of theirs. Instead of shaming her they give her a standing O. Follow the entitlement gravy train! Warren doesn’t and never cared about Native Americans ever, but she’s a Democrat. Shame on these women. They’re nothing but Democrat Party stooges and puppets!

Thin Indians were those who survived the Trail of Tears; my Creek ancestors. I can prove I have the Indian blood that blonde Crockajawea only claims to have.

Indians in res culture get horribly obese. Pow Wow Chow is overrich carb heart attack on a plate. It is criminal that Warren tries to pass it/her off as authentic.

My uncle was a Cherokee; my cousins called themselves Cherocreeks.

I hate Warren the more I think of the lie she perpetrated purely for personal gain. Indians who regard her as an ally are beyond stupid.

“I read decades ago in an Archeology magazine that during a dig in Central America small toys with wheels had been found.”

And Grey Beaver wants to identify as a member of one of the few societies/cultures that could not invent the wheel.

But she knows about taxing your wampum!

They had the wheel.

but never figured out that it could make their life easier.

I want to see GB apologize to the Native American who didn't get the job because she stole it.

Not really. Arguably, fatness caused by eating too. much wheat, sugar, and starch, which is cheap food. Meat and fish help you stay slim.

As a white person I’m offended because she jumped herself to the beginning or the line. She cheated her own more than the Indians.

“Warren spoke at the National Indian Women’s “Supporting Each Other” lunch”

I wonder if she was handing out autographed copies of “Pow Wow Chow”?
