For over a quarter of a century, Elizabeth Warren has described herself as a Native American.
After researching her story, it is obvious that her “family lore” is just fiction.
Ms. Warren’s great-great-great grandfather, was apparently a member of the Tennessee Militia who rounded up Cherokees from their family homes in the Southeastern United States and herded them into government-built stockades in what was then called Ross’s Landing (now Chattanooga), Tennessee–the point of origin for the horrific Trail of Tears, which began in January, 1837.
These were the troops responsible for removing Cherokee families from homes they had lived in for generations in the three states that the Cherokee Nations had considered their homelands for centuries: Georgia, North Carolina, and Tennessee.
While these involuntary home removals were not characterized by widespread violence, the newly displaced Cherokee mothers, fathers, and children found an oppressive and sometimes brutal welcome when they finally arrived at the hastily constructed containment areas. An estimated 4,000 Cherokees were warehoused in Ross’s Landing stockades for months awaiting supplies and additional armed guards the Federal Government believed necessary to relocate them on foot to Oklahoma.
It is time for Ms. Warren to publicly acknowledge the truth of her ancestry. It is time for her to admit that she has no Native American heritage that she can prove; and it is time for her to acknowledge instead, that she is likely a direct descendant of a Tennessee Militiaman who apparently rounded up the ancestors of those who truly have Cherokee heritage, the first step in their forced removal from the Southeastern United States to Oklahoma over the long and tragic Trail of Tears.

Warning: may cause sanity loss to leftists
“Well,” she would reply, “Even if that’s true, that’s the white half of my family. I don’t support his actions; instead, I sympathize with my Indian side.”
Elizabeth Warren owes REPARATIONS to the Cherokee nation!
Breitbart needs to republish this, in light of Liawatha’s actions..................
I wonder if she even knows what Ani Yun Wiya is???
And when African Americans demand reparations for slavery in America 160 years ago, the chorus from white Americans should be:
“Well, even if that’s true, that’s the ignorant, racist part of our heritage. We don’t support their actions; instead, we sympathize with our African American friends.”
Well, it’s true that DEMOCRATS were behind the Trail of Tears and kicking the Cherokee out of their homeland.

I agree, let the truth be told!
The knothead gasbag professor Ward Churchill, who called 9/11 victims “little Eichmanns,” claimed he was of Sioux descent, which was a complete lie. Representatives of the Sioux Nation called him Chief Walking Eagle...he was so full of sh*t, he couldn’t fly.
I declare Elizabeth Warren is *Princess* Walking Eagle!
Well, we do sympathize. We just don’t want to pay for that feeling.
In a similar vein, Native Americans are free to accept or reject LiaWatha. The difference is that she is pushing a fake story, and asking for rewards.
I would bet money she doesn’t know where the name “Cherokee” came from....
The Lord works in strange ways especially when it comes to punishing hypocrites.
I looked into Warren’s ancestry a bit via my Ancestry.com account. She could very well be related to the Cherokees and her family information may be correct. But it is extremely hard to prove these things. Absent proof her ancestry should be a private matter within her family and she should not attempt to benefit politically from her possible ancestry.
Best case she might be 1/32 Cherokee or so. Means little.
She might also be related to people that rounded up Cherokees. They were certainly present in the areas where her ancestors lived. This might also be hard to prove only way or the other.
Warren can’t have it both ways.
Well well !!!! Fake Injun Squaw really has a Cherokee connection after all. Ha ha ha ha ha!
Gray Beaver spread Big Bull
Banks and Means refused to allow ward churchill into the Wounded Knee church during the standoff.
They knew a fake indian
We’ll have to keep refreshing this one for another few years...
Maybe Lizzy’s indian half ought to hack off her white half.
You mean, The Andrew Jackson Death Marches. My family was forced from their homes by his decrees.
