Elizabeth Warren to meet with Native American groups in Oklahoma as DNA controversy lingers

Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., will return to Oklahoma City on Sunday, where she will meet with Native American groups as part of a reported effort to blunt continuing criticism over her past claims to have Native American heritage.

The 2020 hopeful, who was born in the city, will meet privately with tribal leaders -- where representatives from all of the approximately 40 federally recognized tribes in the state have been invited for the Sunday morning meeting. Later in the day she will hold a town hall meeting.

The meeting will reportedly focus on Warren’s agenda for the community and is also part of an effort to blunt the criticism she has faced for allegedly appropriating Native American culture.

“Elizabeth is looking forward to meeting with tribal leaders to discuss ways they can continue to work together on many important issues facing Indian Country. She believes in working on a Nation-to-Nation basis to uphold the United States’ solemn trust and treaty obligations to Tribal Nations and to build a brighter future for Indian Country,” a Warren spokeswoman told the outlet.

Warren infuriated Native American leaders last year when she released a DNA test that she said proved her past claims that she has Native American heritage. That claim had been mocked for years by conservatives, and particularly President Trump -- who has repeatedly nicknamed her “Pocahontas.”

Determined to be an Indian, they will make her an honorary member of the tribe.

My great great Grandmother was full blooded black foot Indian. I am more Indian then she claims to be. I didn’t get a free full ride to college as I never claimed to be Indian.

How she can be a Presidential candidate and people take her seriously is beyond me.

If that would have been Trump, oh the outrage!.
