«Breaking News» Elizabeth Warren defends decision to take a DNA test to prove Native American ancestry

Massachusetts Senator Elizabeth Warren on Saturday defended her decision to take a DNA test to prove Native American ancestry, though she insisted that ‘I am not a person of color.’

‘I am not a citizen of a tribe,’ Warren told voters in Sioux City, Iowa on Saturday.

‘Tribal citizenship is very different from ancestry.

‘Tribes - and only tribes - determine tribal citizenship, and I respect that difference.’

President Donald Trump and other Republicans have criticized Warren for her past claims of having Native American ancestry.

Trump has taunted Warren over her lineage, derisively calling her 'Pocahontas' during campaign stops and public rallies.

Massachusetts Senator Elizabeth Warren on Saturday defended her decision to take a DNA test to prove Native American ancestry, though she insisted that ‘I am not a person of color.’ ‘I am not a citizen of a tribe,’ Warren told voters in Sioux City, Iowa on Saturday

Last week, Warren announced she was launching an exploratory committee, the first step in seeking a party’s nomination for president

Before the midterm elections, Warren sought to put the issue to rest by having a DNA test performed on her.

The test the Democratic senator released in October found that she's between 1/64 and 1/1024 American Indian.

The move backfired on Warren, who was criticized for badly miscalculating.

Last week, Warren announced she was launching an exploratory committee, the first step in seeking a party’s nomination for president.

During an exchange with voters in Iowa, she was asked about the DNA test.

Warren said that she initially claimed Native American ancestry because she grew up in Oklahoma, where many people trace their roots to indigenous cultures.

‘My decision was to put it all out there,’ Warren said.

She was then asked about Trump’s attacks and how he could use the issue against Warren if she wins the Democratic nomination next year.

‘I can't stop Donald Trump from what he's going to do,’ Warren said.

‘I can't stop him from hurling racial insults. I don't have any power to do that.’

Donald Trump needled Sen. Elizabeth Warren on Thursday for claiming she is of Native American heritage

‘Yes, you can!’ an audience member said in response.

Warren responded: ‘What I can do is I can be in this fight for all of our families.

‘What I think 2020 is going to be about is not my family, it's about the tens of millions of families across this country who just want a level playing field.’

Trump needled Warren again on Thursday for claiming she is of Native American heritage. 

He shared a parody 'Warren 2020' sign that said 'Warren 1/2020th' on his Twitter account. 

Warren is working hard to overcome the misstep before other possible challengers make up their minds about entering the 2020 race.  

Already, she has competition from ex-San Antonio mayor Julián Castro, who is teasing a 'special announcement' next weekend in his hometown. He formed his exploratory committee last month.

The Associated Press reports that Warren has already hired Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders' 2016 caucus manager in Iowa, Brendan Summers, for her unannounced bid for president.

Iowa's caucuses will not be held for another 13 months in February of 2020. The first Democratic presidential debate is this June, however.  

Link hienalouca.com Interesting to note Looking for an investor or sponsor for a project to grow dinosaurs and relict plants. Requires the sum of investments from 400000$ to 900000$. The exact amount can not say because there are many nuances. It will be necessary to build a small laboratory with certain parameters. To all interested persons please write on an email angocman@gmail.com . It is the scientific project and I do not know whether it is possible to earn on it. The probability of success of the project is approximately 60%. That will be very interesting.

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.

Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
