Title should be:

Barbara Boxer arranges for her son to get $8,000,000 in “consultation fees” from a fake Indian tribe she herself created !!!

Not that I am defending Greggy, but "mulatto" has been used in the past to also identify mixed Indian ancestry.

Why I don't know. I suppose some people found it "less undesirable" to be called mulatto. Or perhaps the person making the record thought it was more insulting if they did not like the person.

Absolutely!

Actually he is not even a “mulatto”.

According to his grandparents and his uncle his real mother was a white and his father was a Mexican stable boy. Even the part about his father being that Emiliano Hilario guy was made up also. He just went to the school his real mother went to and picked a photo out of her year book and declared “well he looks like me, so is my father”, and that guy was Emilino Hilario. Even AFTER his mother’s uncle told him that was dad was the Mexican stable boy, he didn’t want to believe that and made up a story about this other guy, whose ancestor is mulatto to be his father...without any credible ties, just that he thought the guy looked like him.

So even that part his a fake. Boxer created a tribe whose chairman was NOT INDIAN. And now they are going to get a large casino and her son is going to be involved in them getting a casino after she help create their tribe.

Earnest: I missed this thread, but it was also reposted below as a web cache---I confirmed the facts in a second source in Post #29. Who had The Hill article pulled?

Original thread (article linked is a web cache):

Boxer Resurrects Indian Tribe Deemed Defunct 40 Years Ago, Son Profits $8 Million Off It

Post #29

The posted article was pulled by The Hill, but it is confirmed at length here (includes Boxer's son's connection and evasive quotes by Boxer).

Can this go viral and sink Boxer?

Rohnert Park casino bill tarnishes Boxer's green image

"Boxer's bill restored sovereign rights to a few hundred Miwok and Pomo Indians in the Federated Indians of Graton Rancheria.

On Oct. 1, the tribe reached a milestone, albeit without public fanfare. The U.S. Department of Interior took 254 acres into trust, essentially creating a new reservation for Federated Indians directly off Highway 101 south of the Sonoma County city of Rohnert Park — prime land for a Las Vegas-style casino".
