There are many lessons to be learned from the saga of Elizabeth Warren's candidacy for U.S. Senate.  One of those lessons is that the voting public should never take a candidate at his or her word when the candidate makes claims about some sort of exotic ancestry in an attempt to gain political advantage.  Contemporaneously, Barack Obama's self-reported (and incomplete) history is finally getting some of the long-overdue scrutiny it deserves.

Elizabeth Warren is a U.S. Senator who used minority hiring preferences and her own dubious claims of Indian ancestry to advance her career.  She now admits she is not a "person of color."  And most recently, after only four years in the Senate, she has announced her candidacy for the office of U.S. President.

Senator Warren's previous claim to fame was Operation Choke Point and the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau.

Overview / recap articles:

Elizabeth Warren, the worst of the bunch.  While nearly all of the Democrat candidates are monstrous hypocrites, especially on climate change, Warren may well be the worst of the bunch.  Her despicable record as a liar to gain a position at Harvard is well known; she claimed to be Native American, which, as we all know now, is preposterous on its face.  She gave no thought to taking a position that an actual minority applicant might have won.  In short, she is a woman of low character who is willing to do or say anything she supposes might work in her favor to gain power.  She was once an avowed capitalist who worked for corporations to avoid insurance claims — but no more.  Now she is a fully formed anti-American who loathes the wealthy she promises to punish in order to support the deluge of migrants from around the world she assumes will reward her with their support.  She will, of course, grant them the right to vote, as will any one of the candidates if elected.  If you have entered the U.S. illegally, then Warren and her fellow candidates are there for you.

Pelosi and Warren obviously need a history lesson.  The rich, immoral, corrupt Elizabeth Warren committed fraud at Harvard by pretending she was a minority, to enrich herself and increase her power — and now she lectures about corruption.  What would happen if white students claimed to be minorities to game the system the way Warren did?  That is fraud, pure and simple.  The corrupt, immoral Warren and others sought to destroy Brett Kavanaugh even though they had no actual evidence.  How many individuals and families are Democrats willing to destroy to protect the power they have amassed?  Journalists gladly participate in this intentional, fraudulent persecution.  Warren was the brain behind the fiefdom of CFPB that is answerable to no one.  This corrupt fiefdom blackmailed companies and set up a slush fund for political purposes and to pay kickbacks to left-wing supporters.  Democrats love slush funds because they are hidden from the public.

Where Do We Get Such Losers?  Up the freeway in Massachusetts, the now infamous Democratic Senator Elizabeth Warren found herself with a tenured position at Harvard Law school after spending the better part of an adult lifetime telling people she was a native-born Native American.  And if you don't believe her, just check her cheekbones.  But she took it to another level, submitting recipes for an American Indian cookbook — which she plagiarized — and she stood by while Harvard bragged about her Native American birthright.  The first on the faculty of Harvard Law.  None of that is true.  In fact, some say that if Warren's ancestors were on the Trail of Tears, it was as a guard or a captor.  Not an Indian.  At this point, what difference does it make?

Is Sen. Warren an 'Honest Injun'?  [Scroll down]  Sen. Elizabeth Warren is one of those who jumped onboard the Native American bandwagon, claiming a 1/32nd Cherokee heritage — a claim strongly disputed by a Cherokee genealogist.  Refusing a DNA test to remove any doubt, Warren relies on two dubious sources — family lore and her "high cheekbones."  She has asserted she "never asked for and never got any benefit" from her claim.  The following suggests otherwise.  Proclaiming her ancestry in 1984, Warren later used it professionally to claim minority status when her name was entered into the University of Texas Law School faculty directory.  That may very well have influenced Harvard Law School to offer her a job to join their faculty, where she was described as its "first woman of color."  Harvard became her launching pad for a political career.  While Warren had no qualms about claiming Indian heritage, she certainly stood out as such.  Unlike so many impoverished Native Americans, she is worth millions of dollars.

Fake Indians and the Absurd Demand for faculty "Diversity".  Much tongue clucking was heard over the President's reference to Elizabeth Warren as "Pocahontas," an allusion to her phony claim to Indian heritage.  But to my mind, it was apt and called for.  She's a liar, like many on the left, and a hypocrite as well, supporting "diversity" and affirmative action programs while lying to take advantage of them at cost to those who might qualify.  In May of 2012 — forgotten by most of the media or brushed under the rug — Warren admitted that she had told the University of Pennsylvania and Harvard Law school about her purported Indian heritage before she was hired.  Harvard promoted her as the first "woman of color" on their faculty, she listed herself as Native American in the Association of American Law Schools deskbook, and the Cherokee tribe from whom she claims descent called her claim "harmful and offensive". The notion that her lie did not boost her chances for hiring at Harvard, is demonstrably risible.

Calling Elizabeth Warren 'Pocahontas' is the best way to fight racism.  The Senator from the High Cheekbones Tribe of Harvard isn't just a fake Indian.  She's a fake class warfare activist.  And a fake everything.  Warren was a Republican before she turned Socialist.  Before she was fighting corporations, she was helping corporations deny compensation to asbestos victims.  And before she was protesting the high cost of education, Harvard Law was paying her $350,000 to teach a single course.  A multinational corporation owned by billionaires then gave her a $525,000 advance to tell her tale of rising from "poverty" to fight for ordinary people who don't get their own chair funded by Wall Street lawyers.  It would take a heart of stone not to make Pocahontas jokes about a blue-eyed scam artist so shameless she passed herself off as Harvard Law School's "first woman of color."  A grifter whose campaign tried to prove she was really Indian by citing the work of her cousin who wrote the 'Pow Wow Chow' cookbook containing such authentic Indian recipes as Cold Omelets with Crab Meat and Mexican Oatmeal Soup.

What Trump knows about 'Pocahontas' and the CFPB.  It was during Warren's 2012 senate race that the issue of her Native American claims first surfaced.  During the course of that campaign, her opponent Scott Brown revealed that in both her applications to Harvard and Penn, "she checked the box claiming she was a Native American" and criticized her for pretending to be a "person of color."  A reporter asked Warren about a 1998 story in the Harvard Crimson quoting a university spokesman who defended Harvard's lack of diversity by claiming that Warren was Native American.  Overnight the senator was accused of having won her post by pretending to be something she was not.  She pushed back, saying that her mother's family, coming from what Warren calls "Indian Territory" and the rest of us call Oklahoma, had long told stories about their Cherokee ancestry.  She never could document that heritage, nor could reporters who dug deep into her background.

Timely news and commentary:

The Incredible Shrinking Elizabeth Warren.  Sen. Elizabeth Warren, who once was a formidable force in Washington, D.C., and hoped one day to be president of the United States, is now so desperate to grab a sliver of the spotlight she's taking on Big Snack Food and Big Toilet Paper.  She managed only to reveal how irrelevant and economically ignorant she really is.  In a campaign email, a tweet, and a video, Warren complains that consumers are getting ripped off.  "Have you ever finished a bag of Doritos and thought, 'Whoa — there should have been a lot more chips in here'?  You were right," she exclaims.

The Editor says...
The woman is a multi-millionaire and she's pretending to be concerned about the price of Doritos.  She's not upset about the senile President, or the wide-open Mexican border, or un-punished crime.  Just Doritos.  How petty.

Now the Left Is Going to War Against a 'Sandwich Shop Monopoly'.  Senator Elizabeth Warren is sounding the alarm.  No, there's nothing particularly unusual about that.  Warren "sounds the alarm" on anything that disturbs the natural order of the liberal universe.  But this time, she's on to something.  Warren is warning about a "sandwich shop monopoly."  It seems that Subway, the home of above average subway sandwiches, is being bought by the same company that owns Jimmy Johns and McAlister's Deli, among other sandwich emporiums.  Subway, which is family-owned, agreed to sell its business to private equity firm Roark Capital in a blockbuster (good name for a sandwich) deal worth $9 billion.  Along with Jimmy Johns and McAlister's, Roark also owns Baskin-Robbins, Dunkin Brands, Buffalo Wild Wings, and Sonic.  It's an empire, and Warren wants it rein it in.  I wonder how many Americans are vitally concerned about whether Subway is owned by a family or Roark Capital.

Elizabeth Warren Now Coming for Your Sandwiches.  Yes, these big, corporate sandwiches of war are going to put peaceful, small sandwich shops out of existence.  Sandwich control, now!  And $5 foot-longs, begone!  In a Monday Op-Ed titled "Elizabeth Warren wants to break up Big Sandwich," Tom Joyce of the Washington Examiner noted that Warren was striking back at the fact that private equity firm Roark Capital is purchasing Subway.  What's the big deal?  Well, Roark already owns several sandwich joints:  Arby's, Jimmy John's, McAlister's Deli and Schlotzky's.

You won't fix racism with more racism.  Last week's SCOTUS decision to do away with race-based Affirmative Action policies in higher education finally took a step towards fixing a grievous wrong.  But if you listen to Senator Elizabeth Warren (infamously known as Fauxcahontas, Lie-Awatha, and [other names]), what happened is that the "extremist" Supreme Court "rolled back the march toward racial justice, and narrowed educational opportunity for all."  For that comment, she was deservedly roasted on Twitter. [...] In Warren's mind, ending the blatant discrimination against historically higher-achieving Asians and whites (sorry, just the facts) means marching away from racial justice.  Evidently, "racial justice" means fighting racism with even more blatant racism, as long as that racism helps out whichever protected group is in favor today.  Warren benefited from these racist policies by being employed at Harvard Law for over twenty years because she claimed to be "American Indian," so why wouldn't she support affirmative action?  Ironically, she had to cheat in order to get ahead as a boring old white chick, even back then.  Further irony is that Warren presumably took the place that Harvard's quota system had set aside for an actual Native American!

Hang All the Members of the Liars' Club?  Federal prosecutors last week announced the indictment of U.S. Representative George Santos (R-N.Y.) on a host of charges, including misuse of federal campaign funds and wire fraud, almost all of them resulting from his pathological lies.  Certainly, Santos deserved the attention of prosecutors for lying on federal documents and affidavits that may have helped him win a congressional seat as well as personal lucre.  But if that's the case, why haven't federal prosecutors also gone after Senator Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.)?  She clearly lied her way into a Harvard Law School professorship and an erstwhile presidential candidacy by claiming, in part, quite falsely she was a Native American, supposedly Harvard's first indigenous law professor.

Liz Warren's Disappearing Act.  [Elizabeth] Warren has made herself famous over the years decrying the supposedly malicious behavior of large financial institutions and creating all manner of investigatory boards to search for wrongdoing.  Her efforts have never actually accomplished anything productive for the average person.  She just gloms a lot of favorable coverage from the liberal media and draws a lot of underserved attention to herself.  Warren has mastered the art of public hand-waving and shrill histrionics, but it amounts to nothing of substance. [...] It's pitifully obvious that Warren and her liberal ilk have absolutely zero clue about any of this.  They don't know what financial challenges real middle-class people face on a daily basis, nor do they care in the slightest.

A Monopoly on Speech.  The question is who should get to decide?  On the heels of the Warren exchange, Senator Josh Hawley released [condemnatory] evidence demonstrating that Biden's "Disinformation Governance Board" had been interfacing with leftist eBay billionaire Pierre Omidyar's network.  Warren objects to one billionaire member of the PayPal mafia, but not another making those decisions because they share a common set of political views that include censorship.  While Musk put billions on the line to buy Twitter to protect free speech, Omidyar committed $100 million to fight "disinformation", "fake news" and "hate speech".  That includes funding for leftist "fact checkers" who have been used by Big Tech monopolies to censor opposing views.  Warren, despite her rhetoric, is quite happy to have one human being go into a dark room and decide who gets heard from and who doesn't, as long as he's running the censorship machine to suit her.  The leftist politician and her political allies in the Senate and House repeatedly pressured tech companies, especially Facebook, to censor their political opponents.

The Economic Lies of Elizabeth Warren.  There are few liars in the Senate as pathological as Elizabeth Warren.  While this shouldn't be surprising, what is most egregious is how she presents herself as a champion of common Americans while supporting policies that crush and enslave average Americans. [...] Warren is afraid that the Federal Reserve's late-to-the-game anti-inflationary policies will cause a recession.  What she doesn't say, or anywhere acknowledge, is that the very policies she supports have had far more influence in harming our economy, leading to the economic stagnation and inflation we're suffering under.  This doesn't even include the fact that we're already in a recession.  High energy and gas prices are not the result of corporate price gouging as she has repeatedly claimed.  High energy and gas prices are a result of logistical and infrastructural problems directly related to the Democrat attack on American energy and oil.

Elizabeth Warren Calls to Shut Down Crisis Pregnancy Centers 'All Around the Country'.  Pro-abortion fanatic Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) has called to shut down crisis pregnancy centers "all around the country" for their work in helping women seek alternatives to abortion. [...] Elizabeth Warren's condemnation of crisis pregnancy centers comes after multiple clinics around the country have been subject to vandalism and intimidation by radical pro-abortion groups like Jane's Revenge.  Just this week, a director of a crisis pregnancy center in California told the Senate Judiciary Committee that her clinic had to hire 24-hour security due to ongoing threats.

Elizabeth Warren Suggests Putting Abortion Clinics In National Parks.  Democratic Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren told a Washington Post reporter the government should build Planned Parenthood clinics on national parks Monday.  "They could put up tents, have trained personnel — and be there to help people who need it," Warren said, according to Washington Post reporter Caroline Kitchener.  "It's time to declare a medical emergency," Warren added, according to Kitchener.

Ocasio-Cortez backs Warren, progressive call for Biden to consider abortion clinics on federal land.  Democrat Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is backed a call by the her party's progressive wing, of which she is a member, to ask President Biden to consider opening abortion clinics on federal land, following the Supreme Court ruling days earlier that ended women's constitutional right to seek an abortion in every U.S. state.  "We have many ideas," the New York congresswoman said Sunday on NBC's "Meet the Press."  "We have some ideas coming from Senator Warren's signed letter along with 25 other Democratic senators asking President Biden to explore opening health care clinics on federal lands in red states in order to help people access the health care and abortion.  Services that they need."  Moments after the Supreme Court of Friday ruled on a Mississippi abortion law that struck down the court's decades-old decision on Roe v. Wade that gave women the constitutional right for an abortion, Massachusetts Democrat Sen. Elizabeth Warren announced her idea about using federal land.

Why Elizabeth Warren's new 'anti-inflation' plan would fail miserably.  Upset about inflation?  Don't worry.  Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) "has a plan for that."  There's just one problem:  It's terrible.  Warren has repeatedly blamed Big Business and "corporate greed" for the surge in inflation that's hitting families hard right now.  Her proposed solution, along with a number of other top Democrats, is the so-called Price Gouging Prevention Act of 2022.  Warren and her allies claim that this bill would "lower costs for families" by going after the "price-gougers" who are supposedly exploiting the current crisis to rake in massive profits.

Elizabeth Warren explodes on 'The View', claims police could investigate 'miscarriages' if Roe overturned.  Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., has been "madder than hell" since the leak of the Supreme Court draft opinion that overturns Roe v Wade.  The outspoken liberal politician continued her strong defense of Roe during a Friday segment on ABC's The View.  During her guest appearance, Warren offered several extreme hypotheticals on how the U.S. government could abuse women if Roe v Wade is gutted in the near future.  She fretted that miscarriages could be "investigated" by the police or that women might be punished for accidentally injuring their unborn babies while picking up packages in the mail.  She also worried that morning-after pills could disappear, in vitro fertilization could be limited, and women's "most personal choices" would be criminalized.

Elizabeth Warren takes the crazy train.  Like the Energizer Bunny, Sen. Liz Warren doesn't stop hopping.  She made a hot pink spectacle of herself on Tuesday ranting, pacing, and jabbing her finger wildly in the wake of leaked deliberations from the Supreme Court suggesting that the Court would to overturn Roe v. Wade Monday, forcing the abortion matter back to the states.  [Tweet with video clip]  But incredibly, Warren hasn't stopped.  No pause for reflection and bid to change the subject after that Internet-is-forever embarrassing tantrum.  No moderation of language after a few winks in order to sound 'senatorial.'

The American Mushroom Cloud.  The left's reaction to anything that doesn't go its way becomes louder, shriller and more hysterical by the day, if not the hour.  Its response to the alleged draft of a Supreme Court ruling that would overturn Roe v. Wade landed like a cruise missile with a hot warhead.  But that's the way today's Democrats operate.  Counterattack any and every event that threatens their agenda by scorching as much earth as possible.  There are plenty of candidates for the most hinge-free response to the draft.  But before we go further, we'd like to highlight Massachusetts Democratic Sen. Elizabeth Warren descent into madness.  Watch the video with the audio muted.  Does her body language, the spasmodic gesturing, the pointed finger remind anyone of a 20th century figure whose speeches we're used to seeing in black-and-white newsreels?

Liawatha Big Mad.  There is something very disturbing about people who cannot control their physical, mental or emotional state.  Expressing rage because the abortion issue could potentially be reversed back to the states for rules and restrictions on the murder of babies reflects a particular instability.  [Video clip]

Elizabeth Warren's positive feedback loop is destroying Democrats.  Sociologists claim we can only know about 150 people well; from them, we derive our sense of community and family.  The downside is that it means most of us live in positive feedback loops in which everyone we talk with mostly shares our same worldview.  That can be deadly for politicians and political parties.  When Sen. Elizabeth Warren writes in the New York Times (as she did recently) that the reason Democrats are suffering in opinion polls is because they haven't moved far enough or fast enough to the far Left, she illustrates the problem.  Everything that the Massachusetts Democrat hears from her family, friends, colleagues, donors, and employees reinforces her ideological bias.

The student loan debt cancellation trap.  In a recent New York Times op-ed, Massachusetts Senator Elizabeth Warren put forth some suggestions as to how the Democrats could salvage some sort of momentum heading into the midterms, which are currently shaping up to be a potential catastrophe for them.  Most of her ideas, as with the majority of Democrats, involve lots more "free money" for people.  One of her proposals is to make good on something that Joe Biden campaigned on in 2020, along with many others in his party.  She suggests that they simply "cancel" some student loan debt, an action Warren claims Biden could do "entirely on his own."  This prompted Matt Lewis to respond at the Daily Caller, pointing out the many bad things about this idea, including the fact that it would do nothing to address the underlying problem and would only kick the can down the road for a few more years.

Elizabeth Warren Promised High Gas Prices, Joe Biden Delivered Them.  In September of 2019, Elizabeth Warren promised to do something on her first day in office that would rebuild the Russian economy, grow China's influence and support the Maduro regime in Venezuela. [...] What Senator Elizabeth Warren promised in that tweet is EXACTLY what Joe Biden did on his first day in office.  Now, before going further, let me explain something about that relationship that will likely make a lot more sense.  You might remember when all the democrat candidates in the 2020 primary were told to drop out right before Super Tuesday, as part of the organized effort to stop Bernie Sanders from becoming the nominee.  The lone holdout was Senator Elizabeth Warren.  She was polling essentially even with Joe Biden while Bernie was leading.  It was very well documented at the time that Senator Warren was negotiating terms with the Biden team for her compliance and support.  Eventually, as the controlled party momentum grew, Warren agreed to drop out of the race, and she endorsed Joe Biden.  The terms of that agreement were never made public, but when we look at the priority of Warren, and compare it to the literal duplication of that pledge that was carried out by Joe Biden, well, the coincidence doesn't look coincidental.

Elizabeth Warren may face consequences for practicing censorship.  Elizabeth Warren, a mediocre law professor who parlayed a fake Native American identity into a gig at Harvard and a seat in the United States Senate, thought that, once in government, she'd try her hand at censorship.  When Joseph Mercola and Ronnie Cummins wrote a book about COVID with which Warren disagreed, she used her position as a Senator to try to get Amazon to censor the book. [...] [O]n September 7, 2021, writing in her capacity as a United States Senator, on official Senate letterhead, Warren sent a very long letter to Andy Jassy, Amazon's CEO, expressing her concern that Amazon itself was publishing misinformation by allowing Mercola's and Cummins's book, The Truth About COVID-19: Exposing the Great Reset, Lockdowns, Vaccine Passports, and the New Normal, to appear on its bestseller list and daring to give it a favorable ranking.  After waffling on for pages several pages, and mendaciously claiming the book was "potentially unlawful," Warren "asked" Amazon to modify the algorithms to destroy the book's ranking.  Chelsea Green responded in November by suing Warren for violating the First Amendment, although news of that filing only reached the media recently.

CBS gives Elizabeth Warren plenty of space to spin massive 'voter suppression' lies.  Democrats can say whatever they want, slinging the vilest slanders and falsehoods, and the media, though nominally tasked with keeping them honest, will sit by silently, nodding along.  Democratic Sen. Elizabeth Warren of Massachusetts alleged Tuesday that Republican-controlled state legislatures are conspiring to bar black people and college students from voting.  This is, of course, false.  Not one GOP-led state legislature is doing this — not in Texas and not in Georgia.  In fact, it may come as a shock for Warren to learn that Georgia, the regular target of so many Democratic "voter suppression" falsehoods, has voting laws that are less stringent than those of New York, Connecticut, and even President Joe Biden's home state of Delaware.  Warren almost certainly knows this, but she doesn't care.  She knows journalists won't check her facts.

Pretendians.  Who knew that Elizabeth Warren was part of a movement?  Apparently she is one of a great number of people who try to advance their careers by pretending to be American Indians.  We noted here a news report to the effect that close to 20 percent of white kids "identify" as Native American on their college applications — a strategy that apparently is often successful.  Now the New York Post reports on a list of some 200 people, prominent in academia, politics and the arts, who have falsely claimed to be part Indian.  Real Indians, it seems, are outraged that others are trying to horn in on their privileged status.

Millions More People Claiming To Be Native American In Past Decade, According to Census Data.  Elizabeth Warren was not Native American.  But she played one when it suited her career advancement. [...] That was Elizabeth Warren's problem.  She had no proof, and her claims to a good faith belief were not credible considering she waited until she was in her mid-30s and climbing the law professor ladder to assert she was Native American, Even then she did it mostly quietly in a way designed to juice her hiring prospects without being so public about it that people would question the claim.  [Video clip]

Elizabeth 'Pocahontas' Warren Goes On A Stupidity Spree.  There are undoubtedly some smug, leftist elites who will dismiss the idea that Pocahontas can be a knucklehead.  They'll lecture, "She's an academic, she's intelligent," and then they'll point to her Ivy League "background." For starters, Liz Warren never graduated from an Ivy League school.  She graduated from the University of Houston and Rutgers Law School.  Both are fine schools, but that education doesn't exactly make her Albert Einstein.  Additionally, those Ivy League credentials she likes to throw around are only due to her various professorships, each of which she was hired to under false pretenses having falsely claimed she's Native American, a claim she now admits is false.  It's fair to ask, therefore, would Reservation Liz have even been hired by Harvard or Penn if her resume had shown her to be just another white person?  Nonetheless, let's concede that Liz Warren is relatively intelligent.  That still doesn't mean she can't be a knucklehead.

Elizabeth Warren blasts 'Republican hijacking' of the Supreme Court and supports adding at least 4 more justices to the bench.  Sen. Elizabeth Warren on Wednesday [12/15/2021] fiercely condemned the Supreme Court's current 6-3 conservative majority and came out in support for expanding the number of justices on the bench.  "I believe it's time for Congress to yet again use its constitutional authority to expand the number of justices on the Supreme Court," the Massachusetts Democrat she wrote in a Boston Globe op-ed.  "I don't come to this conclusion lightly or because I disagree with a particular decision; I come to this conclusion because I believe the current court threatens the democratic foundations of our nation."

The Editor says...
The current configuration of nine justices has been in place since 1869.  If that is a threat to "the democratic foundations of our nation," why have only a handful of Democrats noticed — and only in the last few years?

Warren Goes to War Over Natural Gas Prices She Helped Create!  Finally, someone with the intestinal fortitude to push back against the insane ramblings of Pocahontas, aka U.S. Senator Elizabeth Warren, regarding her latest effort to blame LNG exports for the high price of natural gas in Massachusetts and other New England states. [...] As for high utility prices for natgas in Taxachusetts and elsewhere in New England, Warren has no one to blame but herself.  She has steadfastly opposed any new (or expanded) pipelines that would deliver more "fracked gas" from Pennsylvania to her state.  Warren is a typical sleazy politician.  She creates a problem, then finds others to blame for the problem that she herself created.

There's Something Fowl About Elizabeth Warren's Investigation Into Turkey Prices.  Democrat Senator Elizabeth Warren is calling for an investigation into the rapid increase in turkey prices as Americans face sticker shock at the grocery store.  In a letter sent to Assistant Attorney General of the Antitrust Division Jonathan Kanter this week, Warren is asking the Department of Justice to investigate the poultry industry.  She's blaming a rise in prices on "corporate greed," rather than on President Joe Biden's inflationary policies.  "The price of turkey has increased by 24% over the past year, far outpacing other Thanksgiving foods, while poultry prices soared to all-time highs this year.  Poultry is one of the most heavily concentrated industries with the dominant 'Big Four' poultry companies — JBS Foods, Tyson, Perdue, and Sanderson — holding a combined 54% of the market," Warren's office released in a statement.

Elizabeth Warren attacks Amazon for refusing to ban COVID vaccine 'misinformation' books.  Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., attacked e-commerce giant Amazon after the company refused to remove vaccine "misinformation" books from its website.  Warren posted a tweet on Friday after she received a response from Amazon to a letter last month about the sale of the books in question.  The senator posted Amazon's response in the tweet, where she attacked the company and accused it of not being willing to take down the books.

Elizabeth Warren on Massive Gov Spending, 'The Money is Out There'.  Senator Elizabeth Warren doubled-down on her far-left demands this week when she flat-out insisted "the money is out there" to finance trillions on new spending proposals like free childcare, college tuition, and more.  "We don't need to pinch pennies on investing in a future for all of our kids.  The money is out there.  With a #WealthTax on fortunes above $50 million, a #RealCorporateProfitsTax, and a crackdown on wealthy tax cheats, we'd raise about $6 trillion from a thin slice at the top," posted Warren on Twitter.

Cori Bush, Elizabeth Warren will introduce bill to give HHS power to impose eviction moratoriums.  Progressive lawmakers will introduce legislation this week that will give the Department of Health and Human Services the authority to create federal eviction moratoriums — pushing back against a recent decision by the Supreme Court that ruled the agency did not have the authority to do so.  The introduction of the legislation, sponsored by Rep. Cori Bush, D-Mo., and Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., comes weeks after the high court blocked the Biden administration's eviction moratorium, ruling the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention did not have authority to impose the freeze.  The CDC is one of the arms of HHS.

This is last week's news, but maybe the article is informative.
Elizabeth Warren asks Amazon to suppress books with COVID-19 'misinformation'.  Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., sent a letter to Amazon CEO Andy Jassy demanding that Amazon use its algorithm to throttle the sale of books she characterized as spreading "COVID-19 misinformation."  After pulling up search results on Amazon for various COVID-19 and vaccine-related terms, Warren's team claimed many of the books that came up were "based on falsehoods about COVID-19 vaccines and cures, including those written by the most prominent spreaders of misinformation."  "This pattern and practice of misbehavior suggests that Amazon is either unwilling or unable to modify its business practices to prevent the spread of falsehoods or the sale of inappropriate products — an unethical, unacceptable, and potentially unlawful course of action from one of the nation's largest retailers," Warren wrote in the letter.  "At a time when every step towards ending the pandemic could save countless lives, misinformation poses a substantial obstacle."

Are We Supposed to Not Care When a Senator Wants to Ban Books?  Because the Press Does Not See a Problem.  If you were to make a proposal that a politician should go about calling to take down published works, the initial reaction from many would be to recoil and issue a rebuke.  The concept of the government seeking to silence select individuals runs contrary to our core beliefs.  Yet we have a politician currently calling to take that very action, and the response is so vacant that you have to wonder how far we as a nation have drifted.

Elizabeth Warren Asks Amazon to Ban Books, Products Spreading 'COVID-19 Misinformation'.  Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., is urging Amazon to remove books and other products that spread "COVID-19 misinformation" from its online marketplace.  Warren identified a variety of products that are among the top results when consumers search for certain items and books about COVID-19 in a letter sent Tuesday to Amazon CEO Andy Jassy.  The products promote "false and misleading" conspiracy theories about the coronavirus, Warren alleges in the letter.

Kagan Writes 9-0 Supreme Court Opinion Rejecting Liz Warren's Subversion of Immigration Law.  On Monday, the Supreme Court unanimously rejected an illegal immigrant's attempt to twist immigration law and create a loophole that would allow thousands of illegal immigrants to become lawful permanent residents.  Democratic senators and attorneys general advocated for this loophole, but a liberal justice wrote the opinion for a unanimous Court.  "Petitioner Jose Santos Sanchez entered this country unlawfully from El Salvador.  Years later, because of unsafe living conditions in that country, the Government granted him Temporary Protected Status (TPS), entitling him to stay and work in the United States for as long as those conditions persist.  Sanchez now wishes to become a lawful permanent resident (LPR) of the United States.  The question here is whether the conferral of TPS enables him to obtain LPR status despite his unlawful entry.  We hold that it does not," Associate Justice Elena Kagan, an Obama appointee, wrote in the opinion.

Elizabeth Warren Wants To Ban Lawmakers From Trading Individual Stocks.  Senator Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) wants to end what is effectively legalized insider trading by members of Congress by barring them from trading individual stocks ever again.  Warren first attempted to push through similar legislation with the Anti-Corruption and Public Integrity Act she introduced in 2018 and then again in 2020.  Both bills unsurprisingly died in the Senate Finance Committee, which Warren sits on.

Warren 'fighting as hard as I can' to nudge Joe Biden left; wants to help president succeed.  Senator Elizabeth Warren wants $50,000 in student loan debt canceled.  She wants $700 billion invested in child care.  She wants the richest Americans to be taxed based on their total wealth.  President Biden has not shown an appetite to do any of those things in full.  But the senior senator from Massachusetts is focusing her energies on tugging her onetime rival left, not on planning another presidential campaign, she said in an interview with the Globe.

Sen. Warren after Facebook's Trump ban: 'They're acting like they're bigger than government'.  Sen. Elizabeth Warren blasted Facebook as having too much power and "acting like they're bigger than government" after the company decided to uphold its suspension of former President Donald Trump Wednesday [5/5/2021].  "I'm glad that he's not on Facebook," the Massachusetts Democrat told Cheddar News.  "I think that he poses a real danger.  But I don't think that Facebook ought to have this kind of power.  We need to break up these giant tech companies, and Facebook is one of them.  "They are crushing competition," she continued.  "And in cases like Facebook, they're acting like they're bigger than government.  The group that made this decision calls itself 'the Supreme Court' — they are not the Supreme Court, they're part of a private company.  They need to be broken up, we need a chance for competition to flourish here, and we need a chance to have some power that balances out what these giants are up to."

Truth and Reconciliation Commission?  Let's Start with Kavanaugh.  Here in the US, two bills have already been introduced for similar "truth" panels.  The first comes from Rep. Barbara Lee and Sen. Cory Booker.  The investigative body would be called the Commission on Truth, Racial Healing, and Transformation.  The senator who spent years lying about a made-up junkie in Newark called "T-Bone" now wants to sponsor a new commission on truth.  The second bill for a "truth commission" would focus on "Native American boarding school policy, which was designed to forcibly assimilate Indigenous children into the dominant culture."  The bill creating this panel charged with finding and confessing the "truth" regarding Native Americans is sponsored in the Senate by Sen. Elizabeth Warren.  Let me repeat that so everyone gets it: Elizabeth Warren wants a commission on truth and reconciliation regarding Native Americans.  Clearly, the whole idea of the United States government daring to assemble a body to investigate and reveal "the truth" as delivered to us by a bunch of lying, corrupt politicians is insulting and laughable.

Elizabeth Warren fuels class warfare with new wealth redistribution ideas.  For the purveyors of identity politics, there is no surer bet than leading the masses against great wealth.  Ever since philosopher Jean Rousseau spoke of "eating the rich" before the Reign of Terror began, leaders have always had an insatiable appetite for class warfare politics in history.  For her "wealth tax" legislation, Senator Elizabeth Warren insists she is just nibbling on the rich but could still seize $3 trillion over the next decade, a figure challenged even by an administration economist.  She also included an "exit tax" to prevent the rich from fleeing.  This is wildly popular among the masses.  It is also arguably unconstitutional and manifestly impractical.  But in Washington, bad policy often makes for great politics.  Warren would add a 2 percent annual tax on the net worth of households and trusts above $50 million, plus an extra 1 percent tax above $1 billion.

If the fed keeps printing money as fast as possible, and Zimbabwe-style hyperinflation sets in, we might all be billionaires before we know it.

Democrats Introduce New Green New Deal Bill Calling Fossil Fuels 'Racist'.  The Hill reports that Rep. Always On-Camera (D-New York) and Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Not An Actual Cherokee) have introduced a new bill that would "invest" $500 billion to "create" "green jobs."  Use of multiple scare quotes is intentional.  Neither the race-hustling professor nor AOC know much about job creation, having never created any meaningful number of non-government jobs.  Government "investing" necessarily entails government taxing, or government just printing more money, which neither the Democrats nor The Hill note.  Those green jobs supposedly already exist anyway; why else would John Kerry tell the Keystone XL pipeline workers whose jobs his boss destroyed to go build solar panels?

Sen. Elizabeth Warren Calls Filibuster Racist After Filibustering Sen. Tim Scott's Police Bill.  Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., has called the Senate filibuster racist months after she herself filibustered police reform legislation from Sen. Tim Scott, R-S.C.  Warren said the filibuster is both racist and shouldn't be permitted in the Senate since it gives the minority veto power, Axios reported.  The legislative filibuster, which dates back to the 1800s, is a rule that requires 60 votes for most legislation to pass in the Senate.  "The filibuster has deep roots in racism, and it should not be permitted to serve that function, or to create a veto for the minority," Warren, who is white, told Axios on Thursday.  "In a democracy, it's majority rules."  Warren added that the Founders didn't intend for the filibuster to be implemented in Senate legislative procedure, Axios reported.  Rather, it was designed to give Southern states the ability to veto any anti-slavery or civil rights law they opposed, Warren said.

Like the IRS? Then You'll Love Elizabeth Warren's New Tax Bill.  Warren is selling the Ultra-Millionaire Tax Act of 2021 as a crackdown on the super-rich.  But in truth, it will likely hit ordinary Americans the hardest.  On March 1, Senator Elizabeth Warren (D., Mass.), joined by Representatives Pramila Jayapal (D., Wash.) and Brendan Boyle (D., Pa.), introduced the so-called Ultra-Millionaire Tax Act of 2021.  The bill would impose an annual "wealth tax," starting at 3 percent and reaching as high as 6 percent, on the richest .5 percent of all Americans.  The merits of the tax itself have been discussed at length.  What has not been discussed is the new IRS-enforcement scheme that the bill would create, which would include a staggering increase in the size of the IRS, a substantial expansion of the IRS's already-oppressive information-reporting requirements, and many more audits and collection actions.

Warren's whistleblower bill turns Americans into government spies.  Senator Elizabeth Warren introduced a new bill on February 4th, titled S268, the Whistleblower Protection Act.  It reads like something you would see in pre-war Germany in that the government encourages snitching on colleagues, possibly neighbors.  If they forget to wear masks, they could be in trouble under this law.  She's broadened the definition of a whistleblower to include the pandemic.  The virus is an excuse to push the country left.  The Act's goal:  To protect certain whistleblowers seeking to ensure accountability and oversight of the Nation's COVID-19 pandemic response, and for other purposes.

Elizabeth Warren: 'Republicans who stand with Trump ... must be stopped'.  Sen. Elizabeth Warren brazenly proclaimed on Wednesday that any Republican who supports former President Trump "must be stopped" and that her conservative colleagues wouldn't even look her in the eye during the impeachment proceedings.  The Massachusetts senator stated that she thinks Democrat managers made a very strong case for impeaching Trump during the proceedings.  She decried any Republican who would dare to stand with the former president and insinuated that they were dangerous.  Warren claimed that she tried to look Republicans in the eye during the selectively edited video presented by Democrats Wednesday during the impeachment trial.  It showcased footage of the riot on Jan. 6 and how close the rioters came to encountering lawmakers.  She asserted that her GOP colleagues "wanted to look off," Fox News reported, as she seemed to imply they were embarrassed or uncomfortable with the video.

The Chump Effect.  Last January, a small but telling exchange took place at an Elizabeth Warren campaign event in Grimes, Iowa.  At the time, Warren was attracting support from the Democratic Party's left flank, with her bulging portfolio of progressive proposals.  "Warren Has a Plan for That" read her campaign T-shirts.  The biggest buzz surrounded her $1.25 trillion plan to pay off student-loan debt for most Americans.  A man approached Warren with a question.  "My daughter is getting out of school.  I've saved all my money [so that] she doesn't have any student loans.  Am I going to get my money back?"  "Of course not," Warren replied.  "So you're going to pay for people who didn't save any money, and those of us who did the right thing get screwed?"  A video of the exchange went viral.  It summed up the frustration many feel over the way progressive policies so often benefit select groups, while subtly undermining others.  Saving money to send your children to college used to be considered a hallmark of middle-class responsibility.  By subsidizing people who run up large debts, Warren's policy would penalize those who took that responsibility seriously.

The reason Elizabeth Warren probably won't get a cabinet position.  From the moment it began to look like Joe Biden would probably end up winning the presidency, he started coming under pressure from progressive groups to put some far-left liberals in his cabinet.  Near the top of the list were Elizabeth Warren and Bernie Sanders.  Both of them were darlings of the socialist movement during the Democratic primary race and their supporters clearly still want those types of voices in positions of power.  Both of those potential choices would cause immediate problems for Joe Biden and the Democrats, however.  Both Warren and Biden are from states that are currently under the administration of Republican governors.  (Charlie Baker in Massachusetts and Phil Scott in Vermont.)  If Warren gets plucked out of her Senate seat, Baker will get to appoint her replacement, at least temporarily.

Warren urges Biden to bypass Congress and cancel student loan debt.  Elizabeth Warren called on President-elect Joe Biden to bypass Congress and cancel billions of dollars in student loan debt, arguing that it could be a powerful economic stimulus tool for families still reeling from the coronavirus pandemic.  "Biden-Harris can cancel billions of dollars in student loan debt, giving tens of millions of Americans an immediate financial boost and helping to close the racial wealth gap," the Massachusetts senator tweeted, referring to both the incoming chief executive and Vice President-elect Kamala Harris.  "This is the single most effective executive action available for a massive economic stimulus."

These Potential Biden Cabinet Members Should Terrify Capitalists.  In hopes of a Joe Biden presidency, far left radicals of the Democrat Party are chomping at the bit of power in Washington D.C.  According to a report in Politico, Senator Elizabeth Warren wants to be Biden's Treasury Secretary if he wins the White House next Tuesday.  The Warren news comes on the heels of reports Socialist Bernie Sanders is gunning for Labor Secretary.

Warren Wants Major Economic Policy Role With Potential Biden Admin:  Report.  Should Democratic nominee Joe Biden win the presidential election next week, Senator Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) wants to play a major role in the U.S. economy in a potential Biden administration, a new report suggests.  Politico, citing "three Democratic officials who have spoken" with Warren's "inner circle," reports that the Massachusetts senator and third-place Democratic presidential candidate has her eyes set on the role of treasury secretary, and plans to advocate for herself starting next week, should the Democrats take control of the White House.

Warren delivers doomsday warning, says Trump threatens 'all life on this planet'.  Sen. Elizabeth Warren brought a truly apocalyptic warning to Minnesota in her attempts to get voters to support Joe Biden.  The Massachusetts Democrat told students in St. Paul over the weekend that "all life" would be subject to extinction if President Trump wins reelection in November.  "What has Donald Trump done for four years?" she asked Sunday [10/18/2020].  "He not only hasn't made things better; he has actively made them worse.  He withdraws from the Paris Climate Accord; he's put a coal lobbyist in charge of the Environmental Protection Agency.  What could possibly go wrong?  He has opened up for offshore drilling, and he has said yes to the oil companies.  They can drill in the Arctic National Wildlife Preserve.  Donald Trump threatens the existence of human life, of all life, on this planet.  And on November 3 we will hold Donald Trump accountable!"

Warren vows Biden will 'hold Trump accountable' for pandemic.  Sen. Elizabeth Warren made a vow to "hold Trump accountable" should Joe Biden win the 2020 presidential election.  Warren stumped for Biden in Maine and New Hampshire Saturday [10/10/2020], during which she spoke more about Trump than about her own candidate.  She said a Biden-Harris presidency would hold Trump "accountable" for his response to the pandemic, his alleged remarks about those in the military and his response to climate change.  "For me, accountability, at this moment, means 210,000 Americans have died from a virus that we should have under control," Warren said to a crowd of 65 gathered in Manchester, N.H.

The Editor says...
The last figure I saw was 9,683. That's the number of people in the U.S. who have died from Covid-19 alone.  Not 200,000.  The virus itself will probably spread to everyone in the country, sooner or later, and there is little or no hope that the movements of a virus will ever be controlled by the government.  But that doesn't mean the situation in the U.S. is "out of control."

Sen. Warren, Dems propose legislation to declare racism a public health crisis.  A trio of Democrats on Thursday introduced legislation to declare structural racism a public health crisis and to create a federal government center to tackle racial disparities in health care for Black communities and other minorities.  Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., teamed up with Rep. Ayanna Pressley, D-Mass., and Rep. Barbara Lee, D-Calif., to unveil their plan to require the federal government to begin actively developing "anti-racist health policy."  The lawmakers pointed to the coronavirus pandemic and police brutality — which has set off a summer of racial unrest in America — as reasons to pass the legislation.

From DNC Irony to Parody.  There is one rule that should guide Elizabeth Warren in all of her campaign-related activities.  Under no circumstances, should she reference Native American issues, especially in the role as a tribal advocate.  Again, what does she do?  She serves on the Democratic Convention Native American Caucus Committee.  What could Warren possibly say to reassure such representatives — "I have so proved my commitment to our Native American communities that I was willing to create a false identity as an American Indian"?  "My high cheekbones are proof of my solidarity"?  Or, "We must be careful not to let outsiders, eager to exploit false and constructed ethnic identities for careerist purposes, habitually expropriate Native American heritages to advance their own interests at the expense of the indigenous community"?

The DNC Includes Elizabeth Warren in Native American Caucus.  On Tuesday, the Democratic National Convention (DNC) apparently included Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) in its Native American Caucus meeting.  While Warren has apologized for claiming a Native American identity after her disastrous DNA test flop and President Donald Trump has repeatedly mocked her as "Pocahontas," it seems the DNC decided it would be a good idea to highlight the controversy. [...] Elizabeth Warren is very much NOT a member of a Native American tribe or nation.  She has repeatedly apologized for her false claim of Cherokee status.

Elizabeth Warren Says Her Dog Will Definitely Vote for Biden.  While talking on Thursday to a coalition of leftwing activists hellbent on making Joe Biden president, Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) announced that her dog Bailey "is definitely going to vote in November," and Warren said Bailey is "voting Democrat all the way."  "Bailey for Biden!" Warren cheered.  And Bailey is just the type of low-information voter the Democrats depend upon.  For the record, Warren never said she was joking.  Let's hope Warren is less serious about her dog being a registered Democrat than she was about herself being an American Indian.

Warren Said High-Dollar Fundraisers Would Rip 'This Democracy Apart.' She Just Had A $6 Million Fundraiser For Biden.  Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) held a $6 million fundraiser for presumptive Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden this week despite having denounced high-dollar fundraisers during her failed presidential campaign.  In comments denouncing high-dollar fundraisers, Warren told reporters during a campaign stop in February that we are "tearing this democracy apart."  "She talked in early states like Iowa and New Hampshire about her disdain for the typical fundraising practices used by most candidates; she was often rewarded with thunderous applause (but not enough votes)," The Washington Post notes.  "She talked about it on the debate stage, where she zinged other candidates for raising cash in fancy settings — like a California wine cave.  She talked about it in friendly interviews with anchors like MSNBC's Rachel Maddow."

Republican-led Senate committee approves Elizabeth Warren's amendment to rename military bases.  Courting a potential presidential veto, the U.S. Senate Armed Services Committee voted on Wednesday to require the Pentagon to change the names of any military base named after a Confederate general.  Lawmakers approved the amendment, introduced by failed 2020 Democrat presidential candidate Sen. Elizabeth Warren, to the National Defense Authorization Act by voice vote during a closed-door meeting.  The panel apparently has yet to make an official statement, however, although Sen. Josh Hawley (R-Mo.) announced that he voted against it.  "I opposed this amendment, spoke against it, and voted no in the committee.  Congress should not be mandating renaming of our bases and military installations," he tweeted.

Everything is about race, isn't it?
Elizabeth Warren Demands 'Critical' Racial Data of those with Coronavirus.  Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) is demanding the racial data of those contracting the novel coronavirus, contending that it is "critical to ensuring an equitable and just response to this crisis across the board."  While the virus appears to be no respecter of persons, infecting more than one million people globally, Warren believes it is "critical" to have racial data to properly respond to the pandemic.

Democrats Hope For a Pandemic.  [Scroll down]  Mrs. Warren surged into the lead in the late summer, but she hit a number of explosive fragmentation devices.  Mr. Trump's sarcastic references to her as "Pocahontas" highlighted her outright mendacity in falsely claiming to be of Native American descent and exploiting that canard to advance her academic career.  Her robotic, schoolmarmish "I have a plan for that" in response to every policy question as she waved her hands like the back-rotors on helicopters wore thin, especially when she costed her brainwave (shared with Senator Sanders) of depriving 180 million Americans of their present health-care arrangements.  Replacing it with a government-directed system for everyone in the country would cost $52 trillion.

Sen. Warren, What Planet Are You On?  You can tell the difference between men and women in the difference between Bernie and Liz.  Bernie is going to smash the millionaires and billionaires, just like a real revolutionary would have done back in the day.  Liz?  Well, she's got a plan.  She's going to go around the neighborhood with her plan and "share" it with all the other women and mean-girl them until they agree.  But the thing about her plan is that it won't be implemented by the complaints and the whinings of the women in the neighborhood at the family dinner table.  It will be implemented by government force, men with guns, the fabulous Dawn Raiders of the FBI.

It's Still Not Because She's a Woman.  It's not hard to understand why Elizabeth Warren will not be the Democratic presidential nominee.  Unless, that is, you're one of her most zealous fans, in which case getting to the bottom of her departure from the race requires careful scrutiny of the apparent sexism lurking beneath the crust of American culture — a practice that her defenders have been engaged in since her campaign began.  Never mind that, if misogyny of any kind is responsible for Warren's demise, it is that of Democratic primary voters, who overwhelmingly chose the senator's opponents, including in her home state of Massachusetts, where she, a second-term senator, came in a distant third place.

The amazing gracelessness of Elizabeth Warren.  [S]ince dropping out the presidential race on Thursday, Warren has on the whole exhibited an amazing lack of grace.  She has suggested her failure is down to sexism and said she just felt for the little girls who will have to wait at least another four years to get a woman Commander-in-Chief — a statement that should forever be known as 'playing the little girl card'.  She has also taken to bragging about how she took down Michael Bloomberg in the TV debates.

Another blow to Elizabeth Warren?  Supreme Court eyes the legality of her CFPB.  The Supreme Court this week questioned the legality of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, specifically whether Sen. Elizabeth Warren's brainchild, created during the Obama administration, can be led by a single director unaccountable to the president.  "Congress has always established these as multimember commissions or agencies," Justice Brett M. Kavanaugh said about independent agencies during oral arguments.  "It's really the next president who's going to face the issue, because the head of this agency will go at least three or four years into the next president's term, and the next president might have a completely different conception of consumer financial regulatory issues, yet will be able to do nothing about it," he added.

In the End, Warren Was Undone by Her Own Dishonesty.  [Scroll down]  Her advocacy for extreme, thoughtless environmental policies strikes me as both misguided and sincere.  Her disdain for our nation's financial institutions has been fervent and consistent for over a decade.  Her wide array of spending initiatives and socially radical proposals — Medicare for All, universal pre-K, free college, and student-loan forgiveness — were backed by policy papers, PowerPoint presentations, and town-hall lectures.  She is wrong on every one of those issues, but there is no evidence that people rejected her candidacy because of her positions.

Elizabeth Warren's candidacy failed because voters saw through her.  Warren's career, as I have detailed, has been built on a series of cons dating back to her time as an academic peddling dubious medical bankruptcy research.  In the run-up to her 2020 campaign, she attempted to lean into her false claim of Native American heritage.  On the campaign trail, she told whoppers about having been pushed out of a teaching job for being visibly pregnant and told charter school advocates her kids went to public school (while hiding that she sent one of her children to private school).  She was an unconvincing panderer, actually generating phrases such as, "Black trans and cis women, gender-nonconforming, and nonbinary people are the backbone of our democracy."  But the heart of her campaign was her long list of policy proposals.  Though they drew glowing reviews from her fans in the media, they did not stand up to much scrutiny.

America Isn't Sexist — Female Democratic Candidates Are Just Awful People.  Elizabeth Warren's exit from the 2020 Democratic clown car was seemingly only moments old before a torrent of hot takes about her failure began lighting up the internet.  This was to be expected, of course, as the rules of identity politics clearly state that any Democrat who properly fills any of the diversity checklist boxes cannot possibly be held responsible for his or her own failure in an election. [...] She obviously shares many personality flaws with Hillary Clinton, chief among them that overwhelming phoniness that she oozes when trying to act like she's just one of the regular folk.

Elizabeth Warren Wasted over $89 Million on Failed Presidential Campaign.  Sen. Elizabeth Warren wasted over $89 million on her failed presidential campaign, federal election records reveal.  The campaign finance report filed on January 31, showed Warren spent $89.69 million on her campaign, according to Open Secrets.

Warren ends 2020 presidential bid, not endorsing anyone yet.  Elizabeth Warren ended her once-promising presidential campaign on Thursday after failing to finish higher than third place in any of the 18 states that have voted so far.

Pocahontas Surrenders.  U.S. senator Elizabeth Warren, the liberal firebrand who emerged as a top Democratic contender for the White House on the strength of an anti-corruption platform backed by a dizzying array of policy proposals, ended her campaign on Thursday [3/5/2020], the New York Times reported, citing a source close to her.  A former bankruptcy law professor who forged a national reputation as a scourge of Wall Street even before entering politics, Warren had banked on a strong showing on Super Tuesday after a string of disappointing finishes in the early states.  But she trailed far behind front-runners Bernie Sanders and Joe Biden, placing third in her home state of Massachusetts.  She pulled out one day after former New York mayor Michael Bloomberg, who also had a disappointing Super Tuesday, dropped out on Wednesday.

Warren Went All 10 Debates Without One Question About Her Native American Claims.  Former 2020 presidential candidate Elizabeth Warren did not face a single question about her alleged Native American ancestry during all 10 Democratic presidential debates.  Warren attended 10 Democratic presidential debates between June 27, 2019, and Feb. 25, 2020, without being asked about her claim to Cherokee ancestry.  The Daily Caller News Foundation searched the transcripts of all 10 debates and found no mention of Warren's claims to ancestry or references to her alleged heritage.

Elizabeth Warren Drops Out Of US Presidential Race.  Elizabeth Warren suspended her campaign on Thursday morning after her horrible Super Tuesday performance.  The much expected move clears the way for a two-man race between former vice president Joe Biden, 77, and Democratic socialist Sen. Bernie Sanders, 78.

Elizabeth Warren Drops Out of White House Race.  Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA), once a frontrunner for the 2020 Democrat nomination, will end her campaign for the presidency Thursday [3/5/2020] after failing to win a single Super Tuesday state, according to reports.

Democrats: Crazy Vs Senile.  [Scroll down]  Elizabeth Warren has a tough choice to make: does she believe the things she's run on, or does she want to help Joe Biden?  She can't have both.  If she drops out she helps Bernie, if she stays in she helps Joe by siphoning votes away from Bernie.  Aside from a sex scandal involving Bernie and Biden, with each other, there's no way she can win (and then only maybe because that might fly in the modern Democratic Party). The writing is on the wall, or the smoke signals are in the air (to put it in terms Warren can pretend to understand), the only question remains is whether or not she as big of a fraud as a candidate for president as she was when she was a candidate for a job at Harvard.

Time To Pack Up the Tepee Lizzy.  Warren was born in Oklahoma and that's where she began her delusions of being an Indian princess.  The Okies have no love for their native squaw as she came in an embarrassing 4th with 13% of the vote and no delegates.  She finished behind Michael Bloomberg.  Let that sink in for a second.  Oklahomans would rather vote for a elitist NY billionaire [...] than someone who is actually from the state.  Massachusetts wasn't much better for Lizzy.  She represents Massachusetts in Washington and she still lost in a big way to Biden. [...] Keep in mind that lizzy has out-fund-raised Biden and Sanders, yet still couldn't muster a single win on Super Tuesday.  She didn't even get a respectable 2nd place finish anywhere.  This is a testament to how truly unlikable Lizzy is.

Liz Warren Is Finished After Her Humiliating Loss in Massachusetts.  Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Not to be confused with Pocahontas) arguably should end her presidential campaign after an embarrassing third-place finish in her home state of Massachusetts.  As of 11 p.m.  Eastern, former Vice President Joe Biden had won the state with 33 percent of the vote, with Sen. Bernie Sanders (S-USSR) behind him at 27 percent.  Warren trailed at 22 percent, almost 100,000 votes behind Biden.

A Fantastic Night ... If You Don't Like Bloomberg, Warren, or Sanders.  At this hour, Elizabeth Warren is not merely not winning her home state, she is running third.  The networks are projecting a Biden win in Massachusetts.  Marco Rubio's second-place finish in Florida's GOP primary four years ago was considered an embarrassing defeat, but at least Rubio won Minnesota, Washington D.C., and Puerto Rico, and came close in Virginia.  Warren probably won't win any state and may not finish above third in any state.  The hype-to-performance ratio of Warren's 2020 campaign is stunning, on par with Beto O'Rourke in the midterm cycle.  Her critics and skeptics were right:  Her fans were deluding themselves.

Elizabeth Warren lays Super Tuesday stink bomb, losing native Oklahoma and Massachusetts.  Sen. Elizabeth Warren suffered the indignity of being rejected by the voters that know her best — from both her home state of Massachusetts and her native Oklahoma.  The most devastating blow against her dreams of becoming president came from her constituents in Massachusetts, where she was poised to finish a distant third behind former Vice President Joseph R. Biden and Sen. Bernard Sanders of Vermont.  She was also running well behind Mr. Biden and Mr. Sanders in Oklahoma — a state that became a central part of the story she shared about her upbringing on the campaign trail.

Warren Gets Dark Money Help in Florida.  Elizabeth Warren's flip flop on super PACs is paying dividends in Florida.  Her struggling campaign got a boost from a dark money group late last week that spent more than $100,000 on canvassing and advertisements to support Warren's candidacy.  New Florida Majority, a progressive social justice nonprofit that does not disclose its donors, disbursed $101,345 between Feb. 27 and Feb. 29 to help Warren's campaign.  Warren has promised to rid the political process of super PACs and dark money.

Elizabeth Warren Prepares to Be a Spoiler.  No 2020 contender has fallen as hard or as fast as Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D., Mass.).  Once poised to break out of the pack and overtake frontrunner Joe Biden, Warren has seen her support collapse, dropping 12 percentage points from its peak in the RealClearPolitics polling average.  She is now behind Michael Bloomberg and was all-but-tied with Pete Buttigieg before the former mayor departed from the race on Sunday.  Warren has had an anemic showing in the early primaries, coming in third, fourth, fourth, and finally fifth place in each contest.  She currently has just eight delegates, a bit more than 5 percent of the total thus far allocated.

Nevertheless, Elizabeth Warren persists in hypocrisy.  For rank-and-file Democrats, who take it as a matter of faith that "corrupt" campaign finance is the root of all evil in U.S. politics, this is a powerful message because recent history has proven that no amount of facts or evidence can dissuade them from this dogma.  They cannot be persuaded by the persistent inability of wealthy Democrats to buy elections, nor by the failure of the best-funded Democratic candidates.  They cannot even be persuaded after 2016 when Hillary Clinton's campaign outspent Donald Trump's 2-to-1, and pro-Clinton super PACs outspent pro-Trump super PACs 3-to-1.  The Democratic superstition that money buys elections is so powerful that you can see why Warren would spend so much time and money driving it home.  It won her votes in Iowa that she could never have won otherwise.

Elizabeth Warren's Trail Of Tears Is Over.  In the South Carolina primary on Saturday, Sen. Elizabeth Warren's presidential campaign died.  It wasn't from smallpox-tainted blankets, but from lack of votes.  Her lackluster campaign flamed out in the Palmetto State like a wet matchstick.  Did she ever have a chance?  No.  Warren was always the other Bernie Sanders without the appeal or popularity.  Ultimately, the problem is that nobody likes her.

Cherokees demand Elizabeth Warren disavow ancestry claims.  Cherokee citizens are calling on Elizabeth Warren to publicly disavow a family story of indigenous heritage as a way to dissuade others from making false claims they say often romanticize Native Americans.

Elizabeth Warren Refuses To Recognize Jerusalem As Israel's Capital:  Still Need To "Determine The Capital".  Jerusalem is the capital of Israel.  Period.  It has been the capital for thousands of years.  President Donald Trump did the right thing.  He had the guts to actually do what every candidate has promised to do but didn't.

Sorry, Democrats:  Party's Over.  Elizabeth Warren reminds me of somebody's grandma who ruined the Thanksgiving turkey and ran out of meds in the same disastrous afternoon.  She shakes with apoplectic rage and wiry nervous energy before our eyes.  Seeing her and Bernie together on stage is like watching the grandparents I thank God I never had.  "Goodbye, Gramma.  Don't worry about the dinner.  Try to relax.  Please.  Sit down and have a beer."

The Democrats' personalities were exposed in Nevada and it wasn't pretty.  Wednesday night's [2/19/2020] Democrat debate in Nevada allowed for a sharp focus on the candidates' personalities.  It wasn't pretty. [...] This was Elizabeth Warren's debate for she aggressively dominated the available airtime.  As the debate progressed, the other candidates fell silent when she spoke out of instinctive deference.  With her hoarse voice and scolding manner, she was every mean old lady that children learn to fear.

Warren: Everyone Here Illegally Must Be Able to Secure American Citizenship.  Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) says "everyone who is here" illegally must have a path to obtaining American citizenship — a policy that would eventually give voting rights to the 11 to 22 million illegal aliens in the United States.  During a town hall at the Domestic Workers Forum in Las Vegas, Nevada, on Tuesday, Warren reiterated her plan to make sure all illegal aliens are able to obtain American citizenship and thus, eventually, voting rights.

Warren Issues Broadside Against Mainstream Media as Campaign Falters.  Democratic presidential candidate Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D., Mass.) issued a scathing denunciation of the mainstream media on Friday, accusing several outlets of ignoring her campaign in favor of lesser candidates and blaming that coverage in part for her campaign's failure to gain traction with primary voters.  In an email to supporters on Friday, Warren's campaign said it could no longer "count on the media to cover our campaign fairly."  It argued that other candidates, such as former vice president Joe Biden, received more coverage despite posting less impressive results in early primary states.

New Hampshire Takeaways the Mainstream Media Missed.  [Scroll down]  Less obvious, though, is that Elizabeth Warren also did pitifully, in light of expectations — and, even more so, in light of the geographical proximity.  She was the huge national media darling among the Corrupt Journalist Corps only a few weeks ago, with endless stories on how she would stand for hours after a speech, allowing each and every person at her rallies to take a "selfie" with her.  The media dubbed her as brilliant, charismatic, folksy.  After all, she even drinks beer in her kitchen:  The Brewski in the Tepee.  The hype never made sense.  Warren is not charismatic.  By dint of nature, of genes that are not her fault, her voice is shrill, whiny, screechy, thin, and weak.  It is what it is.  That works in whiny, screechy Massachusetts, where liberals all commonly whine and complain about all their victimization.  Whining may enthrall the victimhood crowd, but it just does not play for the presidency.  Sure, a whiny, screechy voice works particularly well on selfies for the same reason that East European immigrants went into the movie industry a century ago:  the pictures were silent.

Elizabeth Warren [is] heading to [the] political checkout counter.  Speaking with forked tongue only take-um candidate so far.  Fourth place — as an old Republic Pictures B-movie Indian might say, "Ugh."  Think about the dimensions of her humiliation.  There were two woke socialists on the Granite State ballot Tuesday, and Fauxchahontas finished second — dead last.  There were two women on the ballot, and Lieawatha finished second — dead last.

Liz Warren Interrupts People Eating in a Diner — Who Clearly Want Her to Leave Them Alone.  Every presidential primary campaign is full of photo ops where candidates wander aimlessly into cafes and harass people trying to eat lunch or dinner.  It's inexplicable why anyone does this, and yet every four years, there they go again.  This time it's Elizabeth Warren insisting on talking to strangers who would rather continue chewing in peace.  The body language these people are giving off is ice cold and yet Warren doesn't seem to notice, nor do all the cameramen angling for a great shot of Warren being a regular person doing a thing no regular person would ever do.

MSNBC's Donny Deutsch:  Elizabeth Warren's Problem Is She's Too Strident and Unlikable.  Morning Joe regular Donny Deutsch claimed on Friday [2/7/2020] that Democratic presidential candidate Elizabeth Warren's decline in popularity over the past couple of months is due to her being strident and unlikable — all while making sure everyone knew he wasn't peddling a sexist trope.  Following her third-place finish in the Iowa caucuses and polls currently showing her lagging ahead of Tuesday's New Hampshire primary, Morning Joe co-host Joe Scarborough asked Vice correspondent Shawna Thomas what may be behind Warren's "precipitous decline over the past two months."

Warren goes full weasel after campaign is accused of racism.  Six African-American staffers from Elizabeth Warren's Nevada campaign have resigned.  They accused the campaign of "tokenism" and racial insensitivity, and claimed that their work environment was "toxic."  There are two possibilities here.  The first is that the allegations are true.  Warren wouldn't be the first liberal to treat African-Americans as tokens or, indeed, affirmatively to mistreat them.  And even if Warren herself doesn't discriminate against African-American staff members, it's certainly possible that those who help run her campaign do.  The second possibility is that the allegations are [false].  These six staffers wouldn't be the first employees to play the race card without justification.

Elizabeth Warren apologizes 'without reservation' to women who left her Nevada campaign.  Elizabeth Warren is apologizing to six women of color who left her presidential campaign office in Nevada before the state's caucuses because they felt marginalized and because their concerns weren't addressed by supervisors.

Warren blames 'legacy' of U.S. racism for conditions that caused campaign staff to quit.  Sen. Elizabeth Warren says it's time for America to consider its "long legacy" of racism in response to six minority staffers who quit the Nevada arm of her campaign.  The Massachusetts Democrat discussed the issue with MSNBC's Chris Hayes this week as she vies for further traction in the party's presidential primaries.

Women of color bolt Warren's Nevada campaign in frustration.  A half-dozen women of color have departed Elizabeth Warren's Nevada campaign in the run-up to the state's caucuses with complaints of a toxic work environment in which minorities felt tokenized and senior leadership was at loggerheads.  The six staffers have left the roughly 70-person Nevada team since November, during a critical stretch of the race.  Three of them said they felt marginalized by the campaign, a situation they said didn't change or worsened after they took their concerns to their superiors or to human resources staff.

Warren's Indian Casino becomes Issue in N.H..  Sen. Elizabeth Warren heads to New Hampshire still unsure who won Iowa.  Nevertheless, she appears to be one of the survivors of the Democrat caucus debacle.  But an old issue we have covered extensively seems to be following her.  Earlier this month, John DiStaso of WMUR news in Manchester, NH confronted Warren about her support for an Indian casino in Massachusetts despite her having opposed casino gambling throughout her career.  Warren danced around the issue, but it is following her, for sure.

Warren Hides From Cameras Getting Off Private Jet.  With Sen. Sanders, Sen. Warren, Tom Steyer, and other Democratic hopefuls all supporting the New Green Deal, it seems a bit hypocritical that they would put their own self-interest of becoming the Democratic nominee for president over the well being of the global environment.  If Warren wants to be true to herself and her personality, she should continue to do live streams or awkward conversations from the private jets that she is taking.  Sen. Warren seems to take private jets quite often.  The Washington Examiner recently reported that, in total, Sen. Warren had spent a whopping $700,000 of private jet travel since her campaign started (Bernie spent $1.2 million).

Fake Indian Elizabeth Warren Exits Private Jet — Tries To Hide From Cameras After Realizing She's Busted.  These high-profile climate change freaks are most often hypocrites.  Elizabeth Warren should be ashamed of how she just harmed our planet.  After all, we only have 11 years left to save it.

Elizabeth Warren Hides After Getting Off Private Jet.  A viral video shows Elizabeth Warren, whose Democratic presidential campaign has made railing against the "rich and powerful" a central theme, stepping off a private jet in Iowa Monday night.  The Massachusetts senator was returning to the state after spending Monday in Washington, D.C., for the closing arguments in the impeachment trial of President Trump.  At one point in the video, Warren seems to walk behind a staffer after apparently noticing the camera filming her in Des Moines.

Sanders, Bloomberg, and Warren are Fracking Idiots.  Vermont's Socialist and presidential wannabe, Sen. Bernie Sanders, in a bill introduced last week that Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) helped craft would ban fracking nationwide by 2025, a death sentence if passed for the American economy.  Like fellow political lemmings Elizabeth Warren and Michael Bloomberg, Sanders has swallowed the lies the greenies have fed him about fracking, as shown in a statement he released supporting his legislation shortly before the disastrous Iowa caucuses: [...] Not only is none of this nonsense true, it is actually the reverse of what is true.  The American technology of fracking has helped the United States lead the world in curtailing carbon dioxide emissions and therefore is a leading contributor to climate stability and to the quality of the air we breathe.  We are in more danger from the carbon dioxide released during one of Bernie's speeches as he crisscrosses the electoral map in private jets.

Undercover Video:  Warren Staffer Calls LGBTQ Lobby "Liability"; Says Pronoun Focus Loses Elections.  Senator Elizabeth Warren has tried hard to pander to the sexual devolutionaries, even vowing to have a "transgender" child vet her education secretary.  But caught on undercover video, one of her campaign staffers scoffed at this focus, saying it's why Democrats lose elections.  The comments, by Warren Iowa field organizer Angel Alicea, are found in Project Veritas' latest 2020 campaign exposé.  Speaking to an undercover reporter, Alicea expressed "frustration over the Warren campaign's intense focus on social justice, particularly, stressing the importance of using pronouns to address others, rather than talk more about how the Massachusetts Democrat will create jobs with wages that improve one's standard of living," as Breitbart summarizes it.

At least one Warren campaign worker is fed up with her LGBT fetish.  For whatever reason, Elizabeth Warren, who has lived life as a straight female, has decided that she'll win if she can just capture that elusive transgender vote — which, at its highest estimate, accounts for about 0.6% of the American population.  According to the latest Project Veritas video, at least one of her campaign staffers thinks this obsession is harming, not helping, her campaign.  Ever since she set her sights on the presidency, Warren has been cultivating the transgender vote.

The Progressives Run from Free Speech.  Presidential candidate Elizabeth Warren, who has a plan for everything, just announced "an alarming new plan to punish companies that knowingly disseminate 'disinformation' online," writes David Harsanyi.  She's demanding Democrats combat "false and inflammatory information" on social media platforms.  "Disinformation erodes our democracy," she says, because it's meant "to divide Democrats, suppress Democratic votes, and erode the standing of the Democratic nominee."  It could never occur to Warren that disinformation has ever been, or would ever be, deployed by Democrats to erode the standing of a Republican.  False news on social media only threatens a 2020 Democrat victory, since, obviously, only a Democrat victory could be synonymous with "democracy."  Warren is still doing CPR on the dead horse that Russian manipulation of social media "influenced the 2016 election's outcome."

Warren's Blunder Killed The Democrats' Case for More Impeachment Witnesses.  Democrat Senator Elizabeth Warren's obnoxious question, slamming the legitimacy of John Roberts, the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court, who was presiding over this Senate impeachment trial, was one of the pivotal moments in the Senate impeachment hearing.  Warren's totally inappropriate question turned the tide on the issue of additional witnesses, the only outstanding question, during the entire farce of the Senate impeachment trial against President Trump.

Project Veritas:  Warren staffer irked by focus on 'identity politics,' says 'this is why we lose'.  It's not easy being a straight male working on Sen. Elizabeth Warren's presidential campaign in Iowa, judging from the latest Project Veritas undercover sting.  In a hidden-camera video released Monday, a man identified as Iowa field organizer Angel Alicea for the Massachusetts senator complained about the office's emphasis on "identity politics" and trans-inclusive pronouns, adding that he was told by another staffer, "You're the only straight [person] here."

Murkowski hints that Warren's disrespectful question to Justice Roberts punked impeachment for Democrats.  Did Liz Warren punk impeachment for the Democrats?  That's what some are saying, based on some veiled remarks coming from swing Senator Lisa Murkowski, who opted to go with her fellow Republicans and vote 'no' on calling more witnesses, leaving the final Democratic plan to Get Trump in ruins.  Murkowski broadly hinted that it was Sen. Elizabeth Warren's disrespectful question thrown out at Supreme Court Chief Justice John Roberts that was the decider.

Warren campaign made this room smaller making her pre-caucus rally look packed with small crowd.  It's not a great sign of confidence when a campaign books a modest room for a rally the day before the caucuses.  It's even starker when the campaign intentionally shrinks the room's capacity by putting the camera riser in the middle of the room.  That's exactly what Elizabeth Warren's campaign has done, unnecessarily, here at Simpson College for a morning rally.  Her campaign chose a conference room with a capacity of slightly over 600 for the rally.  Then they put the press riser with all the cameras in the middle of the room and filled the back half of the room with press tables (more than are being used) and a couple of hundred square feet of empty space.

Warren vows DOJ task force to probe and prosecute Trump admin, will undo 'disastrous polices' if elected.  The Massachusetts Democrat's signature phrase, "I've got a plan for that" now appears to include a policy that would create a Justice Department task force to target "violations" committed by the Trump administration.  The corruption and immigration infractions will be investigated and prosecuted after President Trump has left office, of course, with Warren firmly planted in the Oval Office.  The 2020 Democratic hopeful unveiled her new campaign plan which accused Trump of running the "most corrupt administration in history."

The Editor says...
If there was any evidence of corruption in the Trump administration, the heavily-biased news media would show it to us every day of the week.  For evidence of corruption in the Obama administration, refer to this page.

Elizabeth Warren Says She Won't Pick An Education Secretary Until They Are Approved By A 'Young Trans Person'.  Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) made a bizarre announcement at a campaign stop in Iowa last Sunday, telling the crowd that, when she selects her cabinet, she'll only consider candidates for the Secretary of Education who have taught in public schools, and the final candidate will only take office after passing an interview with a "young trans person."  One of the attendees at Warren's weekend stop in Cedar Rapids asked the Massachusetts Senator and hopeful 2020 Democratic presidential nominee whether she would support more education on LGBT and transgender issues for school-aged children.  In response, Warren suggested that LGBT and transgender issues would define her education policy.

Really Bad Things the Media Is Ignoring Because of Impeachment.  [Scroll down]  Elizabeth Warren is running for president.  You know this, or at least knew this.  She's been tanking of late because she's an awful candidate who spent nearly two months dodging questions about raising taxes on the middle class (spoiler alert: she's going to).  Voters took note, drew the accurate (and obvious) conclusion, and have started to leave her.  Even Democratic primary voters don't want to pay more in taxes.  They just want others to.  With the desperation that comes with watching what you want slip through your fingers, Warren is scrambling to stop the hemorrhaging.  But she's not doing so by injecting some much-needed sanity into her campaign, she's going the other way.  In an attempt to out-crazy her fellow Democrats, she's now pledging to set up a unit in the Justice Department to investigate the Trump administration, anyone associated with it, and anyone named Trump to see if they've broken any laws over the president's tenure.  This is straight out of the Third World.

Democrats' student debt lies — here's what Sanders and Warren are not telling you.  No one can deny that the United States is facing a student debt crisis.  With more than $1.6 trillion in outstanding student loan debt, tens of millions of Americans are forced to pay huge sums of money every month — this writer included — to private and government lenders, slowing down growth in other important areas of the economy, like the housing industry.  As usual, Democrats' plans to fix this important problem is to throw even more money at it and give greater power to the very same government agents and politicians that messed the system up in the first place.

Warren Has Her 'Joe the Plumber' Moment:  Iowa Dad Demolishes Her Student Loan Forgiveness Plan.  Elizabeth Warren was confronted at an Iowa town hall event by a voter who wanted to know if he could get back the money that he paid for his daughter's college education since Warren's running on forgiving student loan debt.  "My daughter is in school," he said.  "I saved all my money just to pay student loans.  Can I have my money back?" Warren replied, "Of course not!"  The man continued to push Warren for an explanation for why some people can have a free education while others have to pay.  "So you're going to pay for people who didn't save any money and those of us who did the right thing get screwed?" he asked.  "My buddy went out and bought a car and went on vacation but I didn't.  I saved my money.  He made more than I did.  I worked a double shift... so you're laughing at me," he said to Warren, who seemed to be smiling.  She denied laughing but didn't seem to have an answer to the perfectly logical question the voter had.  Warren's only response was "I appreciate your time."

Iowa dad gets into a heated row with Elizabeth Warren over her student loan forgiveness plan.  Video has emerged showing Senator Elizabeth Warren on Monday being confronted by a man who says her plan to forgive student loan debt would be unfair to people like him who worked hard to pay off what they owed.  The encounter took place during a Warren campaign stop in Grimes, Iowa.  After the event, Warren greeted well-wishers who waited to shake her hand on the 'selfie line.'  At one point, a man who appeared in his 40s or 50s stepped up a few feet from Warren and demanded to get his money back after paying off his daughter's student loans.  [Video clip]

Man confronts Elizabeth Warren about her plan to wipe out student loans.  While attending a "community conversation" in Grimes, Iowa, this past Monday, a man approached Elizabeth Warren to ask her a question about her student loan plan.  He was irked by having debt redistributed, and Warren was decidedly unsympathetic.  Warren wants to wipe out student debt — and she claims she can do it with a stroke of her pen via executive order: [...] The plan, of course, ignores the fact that students blithely take on debt despite getting majors in areas that will never result in jobs that enable them to pay off that debt.  That is, she intends to reward them — or their families — for being completely irresponsible.

Elizabeth Warren pledges to fill at least half her Cabinet with women and 'non binary people'.  Democratic presidential candidate Elizabeth Warren pledged that if she's elected in November that she will fill at least half her Cabinet with women and "non binary people," according to her Medium post Wednesday [1/22/2020].  "My administration will be committed to diversity and inclusion," the U.S. senator from Massachusetts wrote, adding that "on day one" she will "build a Cabinet and senior leadership team that reflects the full diversity of America, including having at least 50% of Cabinet positions filled by women and non binary people."

Warren Proposes New DOJ Task Force Dedicated to Retroactively Investigating Trump Admin 'Violations'.  Senator Elizabeth Warren (D., Mass.) unveiled a new campaign plan Tuesday that calls for the creation of a Justice Department task force to investigate and prosecute corruption and immigration "violations" committed by the Trump administration.  In her "Restoring Integrity and Competence to Government after Trump" plan, Warren states that "Donald Trump has run the most corrupt administration in history," and that she will attempt to lessen his influence by "wiping the slate clean" of his appointments.

Elizabeth Warren's Son-in-Law Produced Film Funded by Iranian Government.  Democrat presidential candidate Sen. Elizabeth Warren's (D-MA) son-in-law, with whom she is close, has troubling ties to the Iranian regime, according to a new book by Peter Schweizer.  The book, Profiles in Corruption, reveals progressive leaders' little-known ties to corrupt businesses and governments and discusses the Massachusetts senator in a chapter.

Elizabeth Warren Wonders Why Voters Would Choose Candidate Who 'Lies to Them' After Falsely Claiming Native American Heritage.  Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) on Sunday openly wondered why the American people would support a presidential candidate who "lies to them," failing to address the long list of falsities she has promoted over the years.  CBS News reporter Zak Hudak asked Warren if it is "disqualifying for a presidential candidate to lie to the American public about anything."  "I would think that it — you know, how could the American people want someone who lies to them?" Warren asked.

Lying Liz.  [Scroll down]  Everything about Elizabeth Warren, meanwhile, is a staged lie in service of her ambition.  Her backstory, famously, is fake.  During a time when elite universities like Harvard were under incredible pressure to hire non-white faculty to their law schools, Elizabeth Warren registered as a Cherokee.  Eventually she concocted an almost-certainly-false story about anti-Native American prejudice from her father's parents.  Warren plagiarized her contribution to a book of Native American home recipes, Pow Wow Chow, from a French cookbook.  Harvard bragged about its hiring of Warren and advertised her as an addition to its diversity, though reporting in recent years has attempted to obscure whether this was a help to her.

Wall Street thinks a Warren presidency could be catastrophic, new report finds.  Investors at a major bank that Sen. Elizabeth Warren once criticized are worried about how sweeping economic changes that she's vowed to implement if she becomes president could affect their bottom line.  Mother Jones reported on Friday [1/17/2020] that the research arm of Barclays, a powerful London-based bank and financial services firm, circulated five reports late last year for paying clients, including hedge funds, commercial banks and insurance companies, about what the tumultuous Democratic primary could mean for the markets.

Reminder: Elizabeth Warren Is A Known Liar Who Will Lie Again And Again To Get What She Wants.  Warren has lied about being an American Indian, about sending her kids to private school, and even being fired from a teacher position for being pregnant.  All three are stories she has used to advance herself professionally and politically, repeating the latter claim as recently as Tuesday's debate.

Is Elizabeth Warren Taking This Seriously?  A scrupulous reader of the New York Times editorial board's interview with Senator Elizabeth Warren is likely to come away from it with at least one nagging conclusion:  She doesn't think you're very bright.  On issue after issue, Warren showed unveiled contempt for both the intelligence of her interlocutors and the legitimate concerns of voters. [...] Take, for example, the senator's tenuous grasp of geopolitical affairs related to U.S. national security.  American commitments in the Middle East are of particular relevance given recent events in the region, the most urgent of which from the American perspective consists of a series of Iran-backed attacks on U.S. interests culminating in Donald Trump's strike on IRGC Commander Qasem Soleimani and Iran's acquiescent response.  To these adverse conditions, a President Warren would respond with capitulation.

Desperate Elizabeth Warren now says she'll cancel student debt by executive action.  In her latest show of desperation, Sen. Elizabeth Warren is now promising to implement her student loan forgiveness plan by executive fiat, adding legal questions to an already reckless proposal.  With less than three weeks to go before Iowa, Warren needs to make a splash in Tuesday night's debate.  She's teetering on the edge of disaster in the first Democratic nomination contest, and a poor showing there would doom her presidential ambitions.  After her campaign spent yesterday pushing the idea that Sen. Bernie Sanders told her in a private meeting that a woman couldn't be elected president, she's trying out a new gimmick to highlight a popular proposal from earlier in her campaign.

Pure, Unfiltered Crazy:  Liz Warren Says She Is Willing to Ban Construction of New Homes and Ban Energy Mining or Drilling.  Liberal lunatics like Liz Warren, the former Harvard law professor, believe you can build a home in 2020 in that does not use coal, oil or gas for heating or cooling.  These people are truly nuts.

Warren campaign scrambling for survival.  Elizabeth Warren's once-surging Democratic presidential nomination bid is losing steam. [...] Warren has to overcome expectations in Iowa's caucuses on Feb. 3, set high because of the strength of her ground game, in a state where a weaker-than-anticipated performance can blunt any candidate's momentum heading into New Hampshire's primary on Feb. 11.

Elizabeth Warren Won't Criticize Soleimani, Deflects By Bashing Trump Instead.  Democrats are so consumed by their hatred of Trump, that they can't bring themselves to admit that Soleimani was an evil man who deserved to be eliminated.  During a recent appearance on CNN, Elizabeth Warren referred to the man responsible for the deaths of hundreds of American soldiers as a high ranking Iranian government official.  She then spent the rest of her appearance bashing Trump.

Warren: Concealed Carry 'Doesn't Make Anyone Safer'.  Elizabeth Warren says that concealed carry 'doesn't make anyone safer.'  "The first part is, I say that the reason those people were injured was that somebody came into that church with a gun.  And that's how it is that people got hurt in the first place."

Warren Responds To Hero Stopping Texas Church Shooting:  I Will NOT Support Conceal Carry.  Democrat presidential candidate Elizabeth Warren responded to the heroic actions of the man who stopped the church shooting in Texas on Sunday by announcing that she would not support universal conceal carry even if the person had to be vetted by the government and obtain licensing.  The Democrat senator from Massachusetts made the remarks on Thursday [1/2/2020] while campaigning in Concord, New Hampshire.  An audience member brought up how Jack Wilson acted heroically during the shooting and stopped the attacker within just a few seconds and saved countless lives as a result.

Triggering A Recession Tops The Dems' Presidential Agendas.  The 2020 Democratic presidential field is in near unanimous agreement that fracking has to be banned or at least regulated to death over time.  It plays well to the party's base, especially its green fringe.  It's also an endorsement of recession.  Joe Biden, currently atop the Democratic primary polls, recently said he would "love to" ban fracking "right now," and would also "love to make sure we can't use any oil or gas, period," reports Common Dreams, a website that caters to leftist and socialist devotees.  But the decelerated Delawarean's plan is to "transition away from" fracking rather than killing it all at once.  So put him in the "slow death" category among Democrat candidates.  Meanwhile, in the summary execution category we find Sens. Bernie Sanders, Elizabeth Warren, and former Indianapolis Mayor Pete Buttigieg.  Warren even said that on the day she is inaugurated, "I will ban fracking — everywhere."

Elizabeth Warren's fibbing is forming a pattern.  Maybe Democrats have decided that, in the era of President Trump, honesty is no longer required.  Or maybe Elizabeth Warren is just too insecure to tell the truth about her own life.  Whatever the reason, the Massachusetts senator has built her campaign on a foundation of exaggerations and misrepresentations.  It's common knowledge by now that Warren, one of the top four 2020 Democratic presidential contenders, identified as a Native American, despite being somewhere between 0.1% and 3% Native American and having zero experience in tribal life.  If only her misrepresentations began and ended there.  Ask her constituents in Massachusetts and they may remind you that the senator also fibbed when she promised to serve her full Senate term if reelected in 2018. Her 2020 presidential run began a few weeks after she won that election.

Elizabeth Warren, makin' it up again, this time about bein' too poor to go to college.  [Scroll down]  To say that George Washington was her first-choice of school is suspect, too, given that there are lots and lots of schools out there and she probably applied to others, too, fancier and less fancy, meaning, her parents paid application fees for them, too, somehow not being too poor to afford them, as she said.  A GWU application fee, based on estimates of other schools at the time, probably would have been about $25.  The fanciest schools in 1965 charged in the $35 to $50 range (and these are very rough ballpark figures) so for less-prestigious schools such as George Washington University, which today is a distinguished school, but years ago, was considered middling, would have been around $25.  She couldn't afford that?  She probably did afford that, and more, more, more.  George Washington, which knows the ways of Washington, has always been an expensive school.

Elizabeth Warren's Brother 'Furious' Over Her Latest Alleged False Claim About Family, Report Says.  Democrat presidential candidate Elizabeth Warren reportedly angered her brother David Warren over the way that she has characterized what their father did for work, calling him a "janitor," a term that David Warren says is false.

Senator Warren's Pernicious Wealth Tax.  I am rich.  No, I do not have multiple residences, a yacht, a wine cave, or any of the storied trappings of wealth.  And I certainly don't feel "rich."  I am simply retired, and over a lifetime of working have accumulated assets that are meant to support me and my spouse in our retirement years.  In my view, this is the responsible thing to do.  We want to avoid being a burden on family, or relying on benevolent institutions or government assistance to sustain us.  But some Democrat politicians, most notably Sen. Elizabeth Warren, might call me "rich" and take future steps to confiscate the fruits of my labor and my sacrifice during my working years.

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, according to the Washington Post.  Later in the day she will hold a town hall meeting.

Elizabeth Warren's Campaign Says Asian, Indian And Middle-Eastern Billionaires Are 'White'.  Democratic presidential candidate Sen. Elizabeth Warren's campaign website labeled Asian-American, Indian-American, Iranian-American and Pakistani-American billionaires as "white."  The Massachusetts senator's campaign website includes a page on "wealth inequality," which featured a since-deleted graphic breaking down the 400 wealthiest Americans by race.

Democratic candidate Elizabeth Warren releases a $10.7 trillion plan to create 10.6 million green jobs.  Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., released a $10.7 trillion plan Friday [12/20/2019] that would rebuild the economy using "100% clean energy" and create 10.6 million union jobs.  "To support the millions of skilled and experienced contractors we will need to plan and execute large construction and engineering projects in the new clean economy," her plan says.  The plan would "support the first responders, healthcare workers, social workers, and other public and private employees who respond to climate-induced disasters," by committing to "investments in retraining, joint labor management apprenticeships, and creating strong career pipelines to ensure a continuous supply of skilled, available workers."

The Editor says...
[#1] For those of you who attended public schools, and those of you who vote for pie-in-the-sky Democrat ideas without thinking, let me explain that spending $10.7 trillion to create 10.6 million green jobs means that the jobs cost the taxpayers over a million dollars each.  [#2] There have been "climate-induced disasters" throughout history, and it has never been proper for the government to spend taxpayers' money to rebuild someone else's storm-damaged property.  [#3] Spending other people's money is the only idea Elizabeth Warren has.  There are numerous variations on this theme, but that's all she's got.

2020 Democrats:  Prosperous America Is A Dark Place.  What the Democrats who gathered in Los Angeles Thursday night [12/19/2019] for the PBS/Politico debate are offering the country as an alternative to President Donald Trump was encapsulated by Sen. Elizabeth Warren in her closing statement.  "This is a dark moment in America," the radical from Massachusetts said, before launching into an anecdote of a woman at a town hall who told her of having to choose between getting a prescription filled and buying toilet paper.  On what planet, exactly, are Warren and the others living?

Charter School Advocates Crash Democrat Debate, Trash Elizabeth Warren.  Hundreds of charter school advocates arrived outside the Democrat debate at Loyola Marymount University on Thursday evening, swamping the small demonstrations of support for the various candidates.  The group, largely composed of black and Hispanic parents and students, marched to the debate venue with a marching band and cheerleaders, and signs such as:  "Stop Prepping Black Kids for Prison!"

Warren pledges to read names of murdered transgender women of color annually from Rose Garden.  Sen. Elizabeth Warren vowed to honor the transgender people murdered each year from the White House's Rose Garden if she becomes president.

The Editor says...
That should take about a minute, and what will it accomplish?  There are lots of black transvestites, but probably very few that have had sex-change operations, and in none of those cases were XY chromosomes changed to XX.  And I doubt if any of the surgically altered men have been murdered, but that's a detail that's not generally reported.

Elizabeth Warren Nosedives to Distant Third in December National Poll.  Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) is continuing to dip in the polls, falling to a distant third behind Joe Biden (D) and Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT), according to the Emerson College/WHDH National Poll released this week.  The poll, taken December 15 [to] 17, 2019, among 525 Democrat primary voters, showed Warren nosediving to a distant third with just 12 percent support nationally.  That reflects an eight-point drop from November's results.

Hundreds of Obama Alumni Stab Joe Biden in the Back, Endorse Warren.  Hundreds of Obama administration and campaign alumni are turning their backs on Joe Biden to support Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D., Mass.) in the Democratic presidential primary.  Former Barack Obama aides Sara El-Amine and Jon Carson collected more than 200 signatures from former Obama staffers endorsing Warren, CNN reports.  El-Amine and Carson both worked on Obama's 2008 campaign, but the group they assembled to publicly back Warren includes a range of officials from the Obama era.

Medicare-for-All's Last Gasp.  For proponents of a single-payer health-care system, there were few arguments in its favor more compelling than the virtual ubiquity of state-funded health-insurance regimes across the industrialized world.  Those advocates dismissed the idea that the unique conditions that prevail in the U.S. render such a system politically untenable, stressing the moral duty on Americans to expand insurance coverage over impediments like cost and feasibility.  Those advocates have since received a real-world education in what Americans are prepared to accept from their health care system, and it's not Medicare-for-all.  Elizabeth Warren is only the latest erstwhile advocate of a virtual state-run health-insurance monopoly to abandon the proposal.  She will surely deny that she has backtracked at all, but her behavior suggests otherwise.  At an appearance on the campaign trail over the weekend, Sen. Warren introduced a new word into her pitch for health-care reform:  "choice."

Warren's 'Wealth Tax' Wouldn't Bring in Nearly as Much Revenue as She Claims.  [Elizabeth] Warren claims the tax will bring in $3.7 trillion over 10 years.  The Wharton study reveals a more realistic number not based on fantasy-land assumptions:  $2.3 trillion.  Not only that, the tax will dramatically affect economic growth and shrink the wealth of the very people she claims to be helping:  the middle class.  Of course, Warren's proposal is political and her people made political assumptions about the projection.  But what makes her faulty numbers important is that she is going to spend that cash — and much more — on government programs like Medicare for All and "free" college tuition.

Elizabeth Warren Just Undercut Her Own Warrenomics.  When you're trying to sell socialism to the American people, it's inevitable that you'll paint yourself into some kind of corner.  Top-tier Democratic presidential candidate Elizabeth Warren, who's got a good chance of securing the nomination, now finds herself stuck in a pretty embarrassing one.  She and Pete Buttigieg in recent days have been playing a tit-for-tat game of who benefited from capitalism more, the youthful South Bend mayor with his lucrative gig at management consulting firm McKinsey & Co., or Warren making nearly $2 million for a string of clients as a corporate lawyer.  Warren felt compelled to provide the details and the fees she received, and it must be said that hypocrisy can be very funny.

Elizabeth Warren on paying for expensive program: 'C'mon, there's always money...'.  In what ought to be a career-ending slip, facing a friendly questioner, Lily Eskelsen Garc'a, president of the National Education Association, her belief in a fantasy world where money can be endlessly spent came out.  Watch her brush off concern over funding an expensive education program with the words, "The way I see it, there's always, c'mon, there's always money.  It's there."  Juan and Evita Perón thought the same thing, and they ruined the economy of Argentina, a country that had enjoyed a standard of living comparable to that of the United States at the turn of the twentieth century, only to fall into a long-term decline that currently has it at roughly 20% of the U.S.'s per capita GDP.

"I shouldn't have done it" sounds a lot better than "I'll admit I'm a liar."
Elizabeth Warren Apologizes When Confronted About Native American Claims.  Democratic presidential candidate Elizabeth Warren apologized when confronted about her past claims of Native American ancestry by a questioner at a Petersborough, New Hampshire town hall on Friday [12/6/2019]. [...] "What do I say to my Native American relatives regarding the confusion around the Native American ancestry issue?" the woman asked.  "I grew up in Oklahoma, and my three older brothers and I learned about our family same way most people do, from our mom and from our dad," the Massachusetts senator replied.  "My family is very important to me, and that's why many years ago I sometimes identified as Native American."

The Editor says...
October of last year was not "many years ago."  That was about the time that Senator Warren's "1/1024th" DNA results came back.  Only that put the brakes on her claims to be an Indian, and only now is she beginning to apologize for lying about her ancestry for political and professional gain.

Warren Denies Receiving 'Any Benefit' as a Result of Her Native-American Lie.  On Friday [12/6/2019], Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-1/1024th of a Plan) once again denied receiving "any job" or "any benefit" from her false claim to Native American status.  In humiliating remarks during a New Hampshire town hall, Warren explained why she lied, admitted that she is not a "person of color," and again insisted she did not benefit from the lie.  "My three older brothers and I learned about our family the same way most people do, from our mom and from our dad.  My family's very important to me and that's why — many years ago — I sometimes identified as Native American.  Boston Globe did a big investigation about this, gosh, about a year and a half ago.  Never had anything to do with any job I ever got or any benefit," Warren said.

The Editor says...
If you believe all that, you are too gullible to vote.  You should not vote in any election ever again.

Why the press was blind to recognize Warren's Medicare blunder.  The media didn't wake up until Elizabeth Warren started sinking in the polls.  For much of the year, she basically skated on a health care plan that is political suicide.  But as the Massachusetts senator surged toward front-runner status, the poll-obsessed press essentially said hey, it's working.  Medicare for All is popular with the party's progressive wing, Warren has a plan for everything, they're all geniuses.  And yet, here was a leading Democratic candidate promising to run against President Trump by taking away private health insurance from 150 million Americans.  It didn't take a political genius to realize that this would be an unmitigated disaster in a general election.

Warren's Son Attended One of the Nation's Most Elite Private Schools.  The Haverford School's leafy campus, arched doorways, and neatly uniformed boys would seem to denote the sort of class and privilege that Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D., Mass.) has decried on the campaign trail.  That may be why Warren, confronted by a school-choice activist in November, denied that her kids had attended private schools.  The 2020 Democratic hopeful insisted that "my kids went to public school" — a half-truth, at best, that obscures a reality at odds with her image as a scrappy public school teacher-turned-populist crusader.  While Warren's daughter, Amelia Warren Tyagi, attended public schools for the entirety of her elementary and high school education, her son, Alex Warren, spent the majority of his formative years at one of the country's most elite private schools, the Haverford School, according to yearbooks obtained by the Washington Free Beacon.

Warren's Big Bet on Medicare for All Is Not Paying Off.  Support for single-payer health care, and for the Massachusetts senator, is waning.  Sen. Elizabeth Warren's once-ascendant presidential campaign has begun to dim.  And among her fellow Democrats, including those in the field, there is a universally agreed upon culprit for the stall in the polls: her embrace and handling of Medicare for All.  The senator's decision to back single-payer health care has long been considered by establishment Democrats as a self-inflicted wound, one that would prove to be a massive weight on her in a general election should she get there.

New poll shows Warren in free fall, losing half her national support.  This new one from Quinnipiac is "just one poll," as the data nerds like to say, except ... it's not really "just one poll."  As we'll see momentarily, Warren has been slipping in lots of polls over the past month and a half.  And her downturn in today's data isn't really a "slip," it's a minor catastrophe.  She went from 28 percent in Quinnipiac's last poll, good enough to lead the pack, to 14 percent today.

Pocahontas' is a contemptuous liar and patronizing hypocrite.  In this constantly roiling sea of lies coming from Washington, it sure is helpful when a politician says something that is obviously false and reveals all you need to know about that particular liar.  House "intelligence" committee chairman Adam B. Schiff is one of those people, as he has demonstrated innumerable times over the past three years during his Ahab-like quest to harpoon President Trump.  Another straight-forward liar is Sen. Elizabeth Warren, whose smug fake populism and screechy white privilege make her a perfect candidate for the Democratic presidential nomination.

Elizabeth Warren Signals She'll Pick a Woman as Running Mate.  Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) on Monday [11/25/2019] floated the possibility of an all-woman ticket if she wins the Democrat Party's presidential nomination in 2020.  While campaigning in Altoona, Iowa, Warren was asked if she plans on selecting a woman as her running mate.

MSNBC and Washington Post dutifully ignore black protesters who confronted Elizabeth Warren.  Sen. Elizabeth Warren of Massachusetts was confronted Thursday [11/21/2019] in Atlanta by a mostly black crowd of pro-school choice demonstrators who oppose her anti-charter and anti-voucher platform on schools.  The tenor, volume, and unrelenting nature of the demonstration got to the point where Warren stepped back from her podium and called on Rep. Ayanna Pressley of Massachusetts to deal with the protesters.  "What do we do with this?" the senator asked the black congresswoman of the activists, who were being shouted down at the time by Warren's mostly white supporters. [...] Unsurprisingly, neither the Washington Post nor MSNBC, both of which have dedicated an enormous amount of time and energy to promoting Warren's 2020 Democratic primary campaign, have made any effort to cover the incident, despite its inherent newsworthiness.

The Danger of Elizabeth Warren.  Senator Elizabeth Warren, one-time Indian and beer drinker, would make a very dangerous president.  This isn't just because of her policies, which include ending the Electoral College, banning fracking everywhere, regulating a naturally occurring gas (CO2), being radically pro-abortion, decriminalizing illegal border crossing, and free health care for illegal aliens.  It's not only her complete phoniness, which is in one way actually reassuring:  it informs that the aforementioned policies are surely as pliable as her family history narrative.  No, it's also because she's frightfully out of touch with reality in a largely unrecognized way, one common to leftists. [...] Warren's inability to do this — her obviously total ignorance of how ridiculous she'd look and her inability to read how others would read her — speaks volumes.  Call it extremely low emotional IQ, dislocation from reality in the given area, poor people skills, stupidity or something else, but it's a fatal defect in a leader.

Bureaucracy bonanza?  Warren's plans would create plethora of 20 new federal offices.  A Fox News analysis of the Democratic presidential candidate's myriad and much-touted plans reveals that Warren's ambitious agenda of policy prescriptions would not only prompt sweeping change in everything from health care to clean energy, but would come with the creation of at least 20 offices, bureaus, agencies, divisions or councils.  Some of these are entirely new; some would replace existing agencies, only on a bigger scale; and some would represent a relaunch of old agencies disbanded years ago.  Taken together, what is proposed is a significant expansion in the size of the federal bureaucracy.  If elected president, Warren vows she'll oversee the establishment of new offices that would be responsible for educating members of Congress on technology, investigating ethics violations, ensuring the U.S. is trading with green countries and much, much more.

The Editor says...
The federal agencies, bureaus, and departments are already too numerous to count.

Lie-a-watha.  Shrinking violets don't become presidential contenders.  Still, even at the highest level of overweening ambition, Elizabeth Warren stands out.  She has clawed her way to the top by hook and by crook.  One of her favorite techniques is the bald-faced lie.  As an academic, she is best known for an article claiming that medical crises are largely responsible for personal bankruptcies.  Warren's article has been used (as she no doubt intended) to promote socialized medicine, but it has been thoroughly debunked. [...] Warren's plus-factor, sheer gold in the academy, was her claim to be an American Indian.  One can imagine how Harvard's administrators salivated at the thought of having an actual Indian on their law faculty.

Meet the Progressives Leading Warren's Campaign.  Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) on Friday [11/22/2019] announced the three co-chairs for her presidential campaign: progressive Congresswomen Deb Haaland (D-NM), Katie Porter (D-CA) and Ayanna Pressley (D-MA).

Elizabeth Warren on Abortion Rights.  This is chilling.  It's also in complete agreement with the UN declaration on abortion.  What's she's saying is it's a human right to kill another human.  And every single democrat standing on that stage with her is in complete agreement.  [Video clip]

Elizabeth Warren's Threat to the Constitution.  In contrast to [Donald Trump's] carelessness and highly personalized view of the presidency, Warren offers a carefully thought-out agenda of open contempt for legal and constitutional boundaries.  It's not that she, a former Harvard Law professor, doesn't know that they exist; it's that she doesn't care.  Her broad approach is if she doesn't like something about America, she'll act as president to ban it or curtail it, whether she has the legal or constitutional authority or not.  This isn't a trait personal to her.  Instead, it is inherent to progressive government, which from its beginnings in the early 20th century strained against constitutional limits it considered antiquated and unnecessary.  One of Warren's signature domestic proposals is her wealth tax.  Without dwelling on the complex legal arguments, her plan is constitutionally dubious, at best, and would instantly end up in the Supreme Court if it ever passed.

Warren tells another whopper about her choice of schools.  Elizabeth Warren, one of the Democratic frontrunners for president, has problems with black voters, and one of them is persistent lying. [...] Confronted with a group of angry black parents who oppose her anti-charter schools stance, she tried to feed them a cock-and-bull story about how her own kids went to public schools instead of private ones, so the woman should be happy.  It was false.

Warren told pro-school-choice activist she sent her kids to public school, campaign says otherwise.  On Thursday [11/21/2019], Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., told a school choice activist in Atlanta that she had sent both of her children to public school.  On Friday, her campaign told a different story. [...] "My children went to public schools," Warren told [Sarah] Carpenter.  However, a yearbook obtained by The Washington Free Beacon showed Warren's son Alex attended Kirby Hall School during the 1986-1987 school year.  The online publication reported that the school currently charges nearly $15,000 per year for tuition, up from $4,700 in 1995, the earliest year for which records are available.

Elizabeth Warren told a charter school advocate 'My kids went to public schools,' but is it true?  This is an interesting story for several reasons.  It appears Warren lied to a charter school advocate yesterday by claiming she sent her kids to public schools.  There is evidence that Warren's son Alex attended private school for at least one year when she lived in Texas but so far Warren hasn't acknowledged that.  It all started yesterday [11/21/2019] when Elizabeth Warren was giving a speech at Clark-Atlanta University in Georgia, a historically black college.

Elizabeth Warren AWOL from Senate.  Actually, this isn't such bad news for any taxpaying citizens of the Commonwealth, because she certainly wouldn't be doing anything on our behalf.  But still, she is making big wampum for doing nothing — $174,000 a year for what has become a no-show job.  Granted, this no-show m.o. of hers is nothing new, not since Lieawatha started checking the box, anyway, and began climbing out of the tank towns of academia into the Ivy League.  At Harvard Law, she was grabbing $350,000 a year for teaching one course, plus she got the no-interest loan from Harvard to buy her multimillion-dollar wigwam on Linnean Street.  It was the least Harvard could do for its "first woman of color."  This phenomenon was first noted Monday by Ira Stoll of Reason magazine, and it didn't just start this month.

Elizabeth Warren Vows To Use Taxpayer Dollars To Tear Down Border Wall.  Massachusetts Senator Elizabeth Warren pledged in Wednesday night's fifth Democratic debate in Atlanta, Georgia to tear down parts of the border wall constructed along the U.S.-Mexican border if elected.  "You've said that the border wall that President Trump has proposed is quote 'a monument to hate and division.'  Would you ask taxpayers to pay to take down any part of the wall on the nation's southern border?" asked one of the debate moderators.  "If there are parts of the wall that are not useful in our defense, of course we should do it," Warren declared.  Warren's commitment to open borders doesn't stray far from her other White House rivals who have called for the decriminalization of border crossings, prompting criticism even from prominent members of the Democratic Party.

Cory Booker And Elizabeth Warren Debate The Best Way To Penalize Wealth.  Although the all ten Democratic presidential candidates on the debate stage Wednesday night [11/20/2019] spend much of the campaign trail arguing over why their policies are the country's only chance at salvation, there is one area in which they all find common ground: an all-consuming passion for bloated government programs funded by taxpayer's dollars.  However, they all disagree vehemently on how to target the wealthy who pay those taxes.  Sen. Cory Booker of New Jersey and Sen. Elizabeth Warren of Massachusetts engaged in one of the first scuffles of the fifth Democratic debate in Atlanta, Georgie, when they argued over Warren's proposed wealth tax.  Warren continued her routine of describing a tax increase and explaining how many programs she would force those taxpayers to fund using those tax proceeds.

Rubio's and Warren's Immoral Attack on Capitalism.  This is a time of great forgetting, and one of the things that has been forgotten is why we have a federal government and what it is there to do.  From Senator Marco Rubio and his "common-good capitalism" to Senator Elizabeth Warren and her "accountable capitalism," politicians right and left who want politicians to have more power over private economic decisions assume a dilemma in which something called "capitalism" must be balanced against or made subordinate to something called the "common good." This is the great forgetful stupidity of our time.

Elizabeth Warren:  Your wealth tax plan?  It's unconstitutional.  Democratic presidential hopeful Elizabeth Warren is vigorously promoting her proposed wealth tax aimed at the super rich whom she says don't pay their fair share.  It isn't really a "billionaire tax" — the levies kick in at 2% annually on households with a net worth of $50 million, rising to 6% for those with a net worth of a billion dollars or more.  And unlike income taxes, this covers every form of wealth and property, even "yachts, jewelry and fine art," held in the United States or abroad.  It takes class warfare to a whole new — and probably illegal — level.

Why Elizabeth Warren's new two-step healthcare proposal is going to blow up in her face.  To this point in her presidential campaign, Warren has allied with Sen. Bernie Sanders of Vermont to stake out an extreme position by insisting that anything short of a $34 trillion overhaul of the U.S. healthcare system, which would require kicking 180 million people off of private insurance, was insufficient. [...] Now, she claims that the transition to "Medicare for All" will happen in two steps.  First, within 100 days, she'll pass legislation that would enact an optional government plan.  Then, in year three, she'll pass the Sanders plan, which effectively eliminates private insurance.

Elizabeth Warren's most ambitious con.  There are some common threads in Warren's work as an academic and as a politician: gimmickry, shoddy research, and sleight of hand; tackling issues and problems that have a legitimate basis but then blowing them out of proportion; pitting victims of an always-"rigged" economy against villains, typically banks, billionaires, and major industries; and promising an easy fix, without any trade-offs, once somebody has the guts to take on the bad guys.  Like many grifters, Warren started off small.  But her profile has grown with each deception, often in direct proportion to the brazenness of her dishonesty.  Now, she's attempting to pull off her biggest con yet: convincing Americans that everybody can have "free" and generous health coverage, estimated to cost $34 trillion, without anybody but the wealthy footing the bill and without any disruption to the quality or availability of care.

The Death Throes Of A Party.  Elizabeth Warren has been caught lying very publicly twice now, first as a phony Cherokee Indian (for career advancement in academia), and lately claiming falsely that she was canned from a teaching job years ago for being pregnant (with a 2007 tape of her out telling a contradictory story).  Of course, that's just the cherry-on-top of her dazzlingly unsound policy proposals to bankrupt the nation.  Doesn't look like she can reel it all back in and pretend to be a credible person in time for a full-on campaign.

Why Trump is the Black Voters' Clear Choice in 2020.  Tragically, blacks have voted monolithically for Democrats for 60 years with nothing to show for it.  Baltimore, Washington D.C., Chicago, and every other city controlled by Democrats are hellholes of black misery; black-on-black homicides, out-of-wedlock births (fatherless households), high incarceration, genocidal numbers of abortions, and school dropouts.  And yet, Democrats are still deceiving blacks with their tired old lie that every issue plaguing black Americans is the result of white racism.  My stomach turned upon hearing Democratic presidential candidate Elizabeth Warren promising to end environmental racism.  I thought, "Here we go again with another Democrat attempting to fill blacks with more victim nonsense while trashing America, claiming that even the weather in the U.S. victimizes blacks."

Elizabeth Warren Will Never Be President.  In 2016, I was one of a small number of pundits who predicted that Donald Trump would win the presidential election.  This was not because I fully appreciated Trump's appeal to voters; rather, because I had been saying for years that Hillary Clinton would never be president.  She was an appallingly bad candidate, which her party inexplicably failed to understand.  I am now ready to say the same about Elizabeth Warren:  she will never be president.  She, too, is a terrible candidate, incorporating most of Hillary's flaws and none of her modest virtues.  If I had to choose between being locked in a cell for four years with Hillary Clinton or Elizabeth Warren, I would choose Hillary.  Hands down.  Warren makes Hillary look warm and fuzzy.

The Bonfire of the Democrats.  [Scroll down]  Warren.  IMO she is a poor man's version of Sanders, one who cannot do arithmetic.  She has conjured up a vision of a world in which money has no real value.  For her, money is just something the government prints.  The inflationary effect of that kind of process seems to escape her altogether.  She imagines that her various programmatic plans can be funded by beggaring the rich and large corporations.  She does not seem to understand that doing that will kill the present economy and force the creation of a highly planned Soviet style planning and programming setup.

Elizabeth Warren:  Black Trans Women Are the Backbone of Our Democracy.  In case any of you are unfamiliar with this group, Black Womxn is "an organizing collective of leaders, activists, artists, writers, and political strategists from across the country in the fight for Black Liberation.  The last presidential election laid bare what many Black women, gender non-conforming, and non-binary, and queer folk know deeply; that this nation embraces white supremacy and its evils, even at the expense of itself."  Anyway, this organization has just given its endorsement to Sen. Elizabeth Warren.  Which is very nice for Elizabeth and certainly she has to express her gratitude for their vote of confidence.  But she took it a little too far.

Warren Plays To Nearly Empty Hall As Enthusiasm Wanes For Democratic Candidates.  To say there's a lack of enthusiasm for the 2020 Democratic presidential candidates would be a grand understatement.  And in South Carolina, apparently, Sen. Elizabeth Warren is not so popular.  The Massachusetts Democrat hawking the $52 trillion Medicare-for-all program spoke Friday evening at an "Environmental Justice" forum in the state.  From photos of the event, it looks like dozens came, maybe 100 tops.  Shots from the back of the auditorium show a sea of empty seats.

2020 Democrat Hopeful Elizabeth Warren Speaks to Nearly Empty Hall at Environmental Justice Forum.  The Democrat Senator from Massachusetts last week claimed she will give 'Medicare for all' — including illegal aliens... without raising taxes.  Sure.  Warren was also just endorsed by a radical black liberation feminist group.  Pocahontas is out of touch with the average American.  Democrat Cory Booker was also at the forum and spoke to an empty hall.  Awkward.

Elizabeth Warren's cruelty.  Warren's method is to tell voters that someone else will bear the costs.  She denies the obvious truth that our problems are inherently tough to solve and instead declares that they persist only because other politicians are bought and paid for.  The real problem with Warren's tale isn't that this is class warfare, although it certainly is that.  The real problem is, rather, that it is a lie.  Warren has championed "Medicare for all" as a way to cater to her party's left-wing base, but she's also trying to sell it to ordinary people.  She offers freedom from the injustice of insurance companies and the fear of being uninsured.  She tells us we'll never have to worry about another medical bill again.

Elizabeth Warren:  Maybe I'll Just Freeze Deportations As President Until Congress Agrees To A Mass Amnesty.  I was only marginally excited about this candidacy when it involved me losing my health insurance and eventually my doctor and the country being put on the hook for $20 trillion in new spending at a moment when it's already running trillion-dollar deficits.  But now that's she's sweetened the pot by threatening to abuse the president's deportation power in the name of amnestizing America's giant illegal population, I'm all-in.

Sen. Elizabeth Warren: 'I am open to suspending deportations'.  Sen. Elizabeth Warren said Friday that she is "open to suspending deportations" for illegal immigrants if she becomes president.  "I am open to suspending deportations, particularly as a way to push Congress for comprehensive immigration reform," the Democratic presidential candidate said during a Latinx town hall in Raleigh, North Carolina, according to a video posted on YouTube by the Republican National Committee. [...] Ms. Warren, who has called for the decriminalization of illegal border crossings, said Homeland Security should be focusing on "real threats" such as terrorism and fentanyl, instead of "tearing families apart" at the border.

The Editor says...
You don't automatically have the right to enter the United States, just by presenting yourself at the border and sneaking past the fence.  If you don't want you family to be "torn apart," stay on the south side of the border.

Warren's 'Medicare for All' plan is 100 percent fairy dust.  Sen. Elizabeth Warren's new Medicare for All plan proves P.J. O'Rourke was right:  If you think health care's expensive now, just wait 'til it's free.  Never mind expensive, Warren's plan isn't even workable.  It would bury America in historic new taxes, leave health providers scrambling and likely push budget deficits to peacetime-records.  Start with the chutzpah of a politician and her team of elite college professors spending three weeks redesigning a fifth of the US economy.

The Editor says...
Medical care may affect one fifth of the U.S. economy today, but if Ms. Warren is elected and retains the support of the socialists, it will affect the entire economy.

Is Elizabeth Warren Set to Fall?  For months, Warren has simply lied about whether she would raise middle-class taxes to pay for her Bernie Sanders-lite proposal to replace America's health care insurance system with "Medicare for All."  To support that lie, on Friday, she released another one of her now-famous plans.  It is a compendium of tissue-thin falsehoods, a plan about as plausible as Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez's Green New Deal.  According to Warren's plan, she'll somehow manage to institute a wildly generous Medicare For All policy — including coverage for illegal immigrants — at a one-third discount off virtually all major estimates.  She'll radically reduce reimbursement rates for doctors and hospitals — and yet, care levels won't suffer.  She'll cram down drugmakers' prescription drug prices — but innovation won't suffer.  She'll jack up taxes on the wealthy — but the wealthy won't engage in tax avoidance.  The plan is a joke.  It's a lie.  But that's Warren's tendency:  dishonest radicalism.

And if you vote for her, she's right!
Elizabeth Warren Thinks Voters Are Stupid.  The bad news is, Elizabeth Warren has some barmy ideas about raising your taxes.  The good news is, she's a proven coward.  She says she likes to "nerd out" on the policy details.  Okay, let's do that.  Warren estimates that her health-care scheme would cost about $2 trillion — every year, forever. [...] To put that $2 trillion a year into perspective, a comparison:  That is more money than the federal government collects annually in all of the personal and corporate income taxes combined.  Put another way, even if the federal government were able to successfully double the revenue it gets from personal and corporate income taxes, the additional revenue would not pay for Warren's health-care plan.

Government's Dictatorial Powers Under Warren's 'Medicare For All' Should Scare You.  When Sen. Elizabeth Warren released details on how she'd pay for the $34 trillion Medicare for All plan, she said that it would "make plain the choice facing the American people."  She's right about that.  The choice she's offering would not only destroy two industries and cause an economic catastrophe, it would give the federal government unprecedented control over the decisions of private industry.  Warren was forced into releasing payment details because she kept refusing to say whether her Medicare for All plan would require tax hikes on the middle class.  In order to continue that fiction, Warren produced a document that even the left says is wildly unrealistic.

Bernie and Liz differentiate.  When the presidential campaign season began, Bernie Sanders may have figured, as many of us did, that Elizabeth Warren would not make a strong run for the nomination.  Polls did not place her at or near the top of the pack.  Warren may have figured that Sanders, though polling well, would fade.  To many, he seemed like yesterday's man.  Whether for these reasons or some other, neither Sanders nor Warren has seen fit to attack the other.  This, despite the fact that both are thought to be competing for the left-most Democratic primary voters and caucus goers.  But Warren has emerged as a top tier candidate — arguably the frontrunner — and Sanders has not faded.  Thus, as we approach the Iowa caucuses, the two are now seeking to distinguish themselves from each other.

Stick a fork in Liz Warren, Medicare-for-All has cooked her.  Now that she's finally released details on her Medicare-for-All plan and its eye-wincing $52 trillion projected price tag, there's no way that 160 million Americans who like their healthcare plans — including labor unions — will want to see them made illegal.  Nor will any rational citizen want to have critical health-care decisions being made by faceless government bureaucrats who will decide what doctor you can see, and what medical treatment or surgery you're permitted to get — or not.  If Medicare-for-All is implemented, wave goodbye to consumer choice and say hello to rationed care and longer wait times to get medical treatment and prescription drugs.

Thin Lizzie's Wedge.  Warren's Medicare-for-All will depend apparently on a 6 percent wealth tax on the super-rich, up from a previously proposed 3 percent.  (Funny how the tax rate is rising already.)  Here's a riddle.  Let's just take Jeff Bezos and Bill Gates, each worth something like $100 billion in round numbers. [...] The fact that these wealth figures are the capitalized market value of the immense asset base (tangible and intangible) on paper (and only at the margin) is lost on everyone.  So let's just take a hypothetical annual 3% wealth tax and run it out.  Gates, Bezos, Buffett, et al. will have to sell $3 billion worth of their stock holdings — each year — to send their wealth tax check to the IRS.  Question:  Just who is going to buy that much stock every year?

Elizabeth Warren's Health Care Chimera.  Economist Jonathan Gruber famously attributed the passage of Obamacare to "the stupidity of the American voter."  The MIT professor's assessment of the electorate's collective intelligence is clearly shared by Democratic presidential candidate Elizabeth Warren if she expects us to take her Medicare-for-All funding plan seriously.  She wants us to believe that she can expand a program already verging on bankruptcy — Medicare for the elderly will go broke in 2026 according to the most recent Trustees report — to cover every American without raising middle class taxes.  Not coincidentally, she enlisted one of Gruber's Obamacare accomplices to cobble together a document supporting her absurd claim.

It's Unthinkable One of the Dems Could Be President.  Liz Warren announced her "Medicare for all" plan a few days ago.  Even if you accept the magical mathematics that enabled her to claim it would cost "only" $20 trillion over ten years, it's impossible to believe the rest.  Such as the claim that because the government would be the single provider of healthcare somehow brilliant government negotiators would reduce the cost of drugs by seventy percent.  Warren claims her healthcare plan is paid for, in part, by cutting about $1 trillion from the defense budget over ten years.  Doing that would bust the armed services' plans and cut them back so that they simply couldn't defend against terrorism, cyberattacks, or much of anything else.

Elizabeth Warren Shows Her Ignorance.  Elizabeth Warren is the current favorite for the Democratic presidential nomination, but one wonders how voters will react when they learn about her bizarrely radical agenda.  Warren openly advocates making all private health insurance — the kind that a large majority of Americans have — illegal.  She hasn't begun to think through the implications of this extreme proposal, but when voters begin to contemplate it, my guess they will vote against her, enthusiastically.

How America Will Win the Next 100 Years.  An October 24th Quinnipiac poll has Elizabeth Warren at 28 percent — a 7-point lead over second place Joe Biden. [...] Unlike Republicans, Warren doesn't really trust America.  She is the anti-powerful, anti-capitalism progressive.  Your typical Warren supporter has a couple things in common, but most notable is their animosity for President Trump.  Do you know somebody who has said:  "I couldn't be friends with you if you voted for President Trump?"  Well, that is your typical Elizabeth Warren supporter.  Warren has made bolstering government benefits such as Medicare For All and free college tuition hallmarks of her campaign.  Her proposal to simply "tax the wealthy" to pay for her socialist fantasies is a non-starter.  Even a 100% tax on the top income earners wouldn't pay for her policies.  The Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget suggests to raise the funds needed for Warren's Medicare for All policy, a 42% sales tax might be required.  This might explain why Warren is so reluctant to discuss concrete ways to fund her policies while out on the campaign trail.

Here's a list of $20.35 trillion of Elizabeth Warren tax hikes.  Over the course of her campaign for president, Sen. Elizabeth Warren has proposed more than $20.35 trillion in tax increases.  The taxes have been sweeping — hitting payrolls, investments, wealth, military contractors, and guns and ammo.  They will hammer billionaires and middle-class families.  Below, I've compiled an itemized list of all the taxes we have a specific estimate for, as well as additional tax increases she has proposed for which there is no estimate, and other ways she anticipates raising revenues by an additional $3.7 trillion without explicit tax increases.  This list will be updated as it grows over the course of the campaign.

Democratic Candidate Divisions On Display At Fiery Iowa Dinner.  The ideological divisions between the leading Democratic candidates for president were on clear display at the rowdy Iowa Liberty and Justice Celebration on Friday evening [11/1/2019].  Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren took aim at her more moderate rivals during her remarks, slamming them for "vague ideas that are designed not to offend anyone."

Ben Sasse Responds to Elizabeth Warren's Medicare for All Plan.  Elizabeth Warren has released her plan to pay for "Medicare for All" and it's a cluster of terrible assumptions and veiled tax hikes on the working class.  The idea that payroll tax hikes, repealing the Trump tax cuts, unregulated immigration, and slamming businesses with new taxes wouldn't hugely damage the middle class is laughable on its face.  Because Warren is the chosen one though, the media rushed to hang on her every word and proclaim that she had silenced her critics.

Biden:  Warren's A Liar.  Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden on Friday [11/1/2019] accused Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D., Mass.) of making up the numbers for her recent Medicare for All cost estimate.  Biden went on the attack after PBS host Judy Woodruff repeated the Warren campaign's estimate that government run health care would only cost about $20 trillion.  "She's making it up," Biden said.  "She's making it up.  Look, nobody thinks it's $20 trillion.  It's between $30 and 40 trillion dollars.  Every major independent study that's gone out there — that's taken a look at this, there's no way — even Bernie, who talks about the need to raise middle class taxes — he can't even meet the cost of it."

Warren: Middle-Class Taxes Won't Go Up 'One Penny' for $52 Trillion Health Care Plan.  In a long-awaited plan released Friday [11/1/2019], Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D., Mass.) pledged to not raise middle-class taxes to pay for her proposed single-payer health care system.  After months of dodging questions about whether she would hike middle-class taxes to pay for Medicare for All, the 2020 candidate made a firm promise to voters about a $52 trillion system involving $20.5 trillion in new federal spending over the next 10 years.  "We don't need to raise taxes on the middle class by one penny to finance Medicare for All," Warren wrote in a post detailing her proposal.

Elizabeth Warren's Rabbit Hole.  Elizabeth Ann (Herring) Warren has now moved ahead of the pack in the latest polling in Iowa for the Democrats.  Senator Warren wants to launch the Green Apollo Program, Green Industrial Mobilization and the Green Marshall Plan.  She recognizes that we are in debt to the tune of $22+ trillion, but let's dig deeper to save the planet from global warming.

Warren: How does $20.5 trillion in new spending for Medicare for All — plus amnesty for illegals — sound?  This very expensive proposal comes with not one but two unicorns, you'll be pleased to know.  Our famously inefficient government will somehow reduce the total amount Americans spend on health insurance by creating its own industry monopoly, an economic arrangement also not typically associated with efficiency.  And it's going to do this without demanding one thin dime in new taxes from the middle class, a possibility that even Bernie Sanders has deemed too preposterous to include in his own Medicare for All plan.

Warren Admits Medicare for All Could Lead to Loss of Jobs.  Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) has made "Medicare for All" a rallying cry and focal point of her presidential campaign, competing with other primary candidates to deliver a progressive healthcare policy to primary voters.  Warren, in the last televised presidential primary debate, never answered moderators' questions of how much her proposal would cost to the American taxpayer.  During the debate, she deflected and said her campaign is looking into what the costs of her proposal would be.  No details have emerged from the campaign, despite reporters and pundits clamoring for the campaign to be transparent about the costs of her Medicare for All proposal.

Elizabeth Warren's Health-Care Ruse.  What Senator Elizabeth Warren has just unveiled is less a plan to pay for the costs of Medicare for All than a plan to hide them.  A massive tax on all workers, including the middle-class ones she claims to shield from new taxes, will be disguised by the fiction that it applies only to their employers — a point her own economic advisers have in other contexts shown they grasp perfectly well.  In the first hours since the plan's release, the press has indicated it is ready to go along.  Drug prices will be controlled, with consequences in reduced innovation that will cost lives and health but not appear in a ten-year budget.  Payments to doctors, especially specialists, and to hospitals will be cut too.  If the press covers the inevitable consequences for access to care at all, it will be presented as a she-says/he-says matter of opinion.

Elizabeth Warren's 'Medicare for All' Claims Are As Credible As Her Native American Heritage.  Earlier this month, Sen. Elizabeth Warren promised that she'd reveal how she'd pay the $36 trillion (and climbing) cost of Medicare for All some time "in the coming weeks."  If she claims that it can be financed entirely on the backs of corporations and the rich, she will be lying.  That's made clear by a report from the Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget, which is decidedly non-partisan.  After studying tax data, it concluded that "Tax increases on high earners, corporations, and the financial sector by themselves could not cover much more than one-third of the cost of Medicare for All."

Climate Stalinism.  Imagine what will happen if a President Elizabeth Warren bans fracking in places like Texas, North Dakota, Ohio, West Virginia, and Pennsylvania; in Texas alone, by some estimates, 1 million jobs would be lost.  Overall, according to a Chamber of Commerce report, a full ban would cost 14 million jobs — far more than the 8 million lost in the Great Recession.  And the environment itself would be somewhat of a loser in this game — natural gas has done more to reduce emissions than all the greens' efforts.

Warren Took Thousands From Teachers' Unions Before Charter School Flip-Flop.  Democratic presidential candidate Elizabeth Warren raked in tens of thousands of dollars from teachers' unions before reversing her past support for student vouchers and education reform.  In 2004, Warren argued that vouchers "relieve parents" from relying on failing public schools.  Her campaign's newly-released education plan attacks charter schools and school choice.  Warren's reversal comes after the Massachusetts senator took more than $2.5 million in campaign cash from the education industry throughout her political career, including nearly $70,000 from the country's most powerful teachers' unions, according to the Center for Responsive Politics.

Elizabeth Warren's anti-filibuster crusade threatens to backfire on Democrats.  If Sen. Elizabeth Warren got her way and the Senate filibuster were eliminated, it's likely Congress already would have gutted Obamacare, allocated billions of more dollars to President Trump's border wall and even erased the Massachusetts Democrat's own brainchild idea, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, which grew out of the Wall Street collapse a decade ago.  Republicans love to warn Democrats of those outcomes, yet Ms. Warren remains one of the most prominent warriors looking to end the 60-vote filibuster threshold in the Senate, saying it's doing more harm than good to liberals' agenda.

Elizabeth Warren's Financial Berlin Wall.  [Scroll down]  But this is not good enough for Elizabeth Warren, who proposes to build a financial Berlin Wall to keep the rich guys in.  That's a little bit funny:  Billionaires are awful, evil, wicked, and should not exist — but [they will have trouble] if they try to grant Bernie Sanders his dearest wish and skedaddle.  Singapore doesn't think billionaires should not exist.  Neither does Sweden.  Neither does Switzerland.  Neither does Italy.  Why not let those horrible pinstriped social diseases just go where they are wanted?  Because this is not about revenue.  This is about revenge. [...] It is difficult to accept the proposition that in a free society the freedoms enjoyed do not include the freedom to leave.

2020 hopeful Warren would quadruple school funding, crack down on charters.  White House hopeful Elizabeth Warren said on Monday that if elected she would roughly quadruple federal funding for public schools and incentivize states to adopt funding approaches that more equitably fund lower-income schools.

Elizabeth Warren:  Transgender Border Crossers 'Must' Be Released into U.S..  Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA), a leading 2020 Democrat presidential primary candidate, says transgender border crossers and illegal aliens "must" be released into the United States.  Warren, with Sen. Tammy Baldwin (D-WI), sent a letter to the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) where she demands that transgender border crossers and illegal aliens be released into the U.S. rather than being held in Mexico under President Trump's "Remain in Mexico" policy.

Warren on Israel aid: 'Everything is on the table'.  Senator Elizabeth Warren is saying she's open to making aid to Israel conditional on whether the government ceases settlement building in the West Bank.  Speaking to reporters on Sunday [10/20/2019], Warren said by increasing settlements, Netanyahu does not move in the direction of a two-state solution.

Elizabeth Warren warns she may cut off US aid to Israel if elected.  Did Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., just touch one of the third rails of American politics?  Speaking with reporters in Iowa, the 2020 Democratic presidential candidate stated that if she becomes president, cutting off U.S. aid to Israel is a very real possibility if Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu does not stop building settlements in the West Bank.  Warren was asked if she would make U.S. aid conditional on settlement building and she was unequivocal in saying that "everything is on the table."  Democrats are searching for quid pro quo, how's that fit the bill?

Liz Warren issues a threat to Israel over Palestinian land!.  Senator Elizabeth Warren is saying she's open to making aid to Israel conditional on whether the government ceases settlement building in the West Bank.  Speaking to reporters on Sunday [10/20/2019], Warren said by increasing settlements, Netanyahu does not move in the direction of a two-state solution.

Elizabeth Warren wealth tax:  Unfair, counter-productive, growth-killing, and un-American.  Massachusetts Senator Elizabeth Warren, the Democratic candidate for President, has proposed the passage of a wealth tax.  The tax would be 2% annually on net worth between $50 and $100 million, and 3% on net worth above $1 billion.  This is a disastrous proposal for America.  The proposed Warren tax on wealth is unfair, counter-productive, growth-killing and downright un-American.  Warren says that income inequality has worsened.  She claims the gap between the richest Americans and the average Americans is widening.  Warren points out that it is simply not fair that a few people have so much, while many people have so little.  To correct this, she wants to impose a wealth tax, which, coupled with social programs, would re-distribute income[.]

Elizabeth Warren's Character.  The values expressed by Warren in her presidential campaign, and throughout her life, do not accord with what I was taught in Oklahoma.  She seems to have rejected her home state and created a persona very much unlike what she must have been taught.  I doubt if Warren ever would have been elected to public office in Oklahoma because she would have been exposed as one who appears to have misrepresented her ethnic background — and her ethnic background is not the only thing that Warren has been accused of misrepresenting.  But in New England, it appears that the commandment against lying is no impediment to political office.

Warren Would Massively Raise Middle-Class Taxes — And Not Just For 'Medicare For All'.  Elizabeth Warren has been taking heat lately for her refusal to state the obvious — that paying for her $34 trillion (and rising) Medicare for All plan would require a huge tax hike on the middle class.  Americans for Tax Reform has helpfully gathered up 17 video clips of the Massachusetts senator dodging the question.  It's obvious why Warren doesn't want to utter the words "middle-class tax hike."  She's smart enough to know Republicans would play that quote on an endless loop in every battleground state up until Election Day.  But by focusing on Medicare for All, Warren's critics are letting her off too easy.  That's because Medicare for All isn't the only massive new government program she would impose on the country.

Elizabeth Warren Is Not Honest.  [Scroll down]  But there's a reason that all of the data on this practice of rescission (which insurance companies claimed was fraud prevention) predate 2010.  The Affordable Care Act, Obamacare, explicitly outlawed it.  As Healthcare.gov explains:  "Under the Affordable Care Act, rescission is illegal except in cases of fraud or intentional misrepresentation of material fact as prohibited by the terms of the plan or coverage."  Elizabeth Warren surely knows this, and thus her tales of people's insurance being withdrawn when they get sick are not illustrative examples of a serious problem.  They are dishonest efforts to build a case for eliminating private health coverage.  Warren, like Bernie Sanders, is an ideologue, enamored of government regulation of everything.  Most Americans do not share her disdain for private health coverage.  Eighty percent rate the quality of their care as excellent or good, and 69 percent rate their personal coverage the same way.

Elizabeth Warren can't delete truth of fabled past.  Don't worry, Liz Warren, I won't forget.  Ever.  I don't know what computer glitch or nefarious hacker (some Trump-loving Russian, no doubt!) caused your Twitter feed to "disappear" your declaration of Native American heritage yesterday, but I for one will always remember.  It was a year ago Tuesday that you burst forth with your big news that a DNA test confirmed that your repeated claims to be an American Indian were 100 percent true!  OK, it was actually more like 0.098 percent, but still... I'll never forget how excited you were.

Why Democrats Should Be Worried Elizabeth Warren Is The Frontrunner.  The first big takeaway from the Democratic primary debate Tuesday night was that Sen. Elizabeth Warren is now being treated like the frontrunner by her opponents.  The second big takeaway is that the candidates' angle of attack on Warren, together with her dismal performance under pressure, should have Democrats very worried that Warren could be their candidate in the general election next year.

Warren Campaign Scrubs DNA-Test Announcement Video from Internet.  Yesterday [10/15/2019] I celebrated the one-year anniversary of Elizabeth Warren's triumphant announcement of her genetic heritage.  She took a DNA test, and she wanted everybody to know about it.  She even made an announcement video to crow (no pun intended) about it.  Within hours it turned into a disaster, and she ended up having to go on a humiliating apology tour, groveling to any Native American group who would listen.  It was an enormous mistake, and I really enjoyed it.  So did the GOP, who also made a note of the anniversary yesterday.

The Washington Post is becoming Elizabeth Warren's love-struck stalker.  Again, the Washington Post has been anything but subtle in its love for Sen. Elizabeth Warren of Massachusetts.  Last week, the D.C.-based newspaper went into crisis management mode to downplay legitimate questions about the senator's claim that she was fired in the 1970s for being "visibly pregnant."  It has become only more obvious since then.  The Washington Post tweeted this week in promotion of a profile on Warren, "'You knew, just by talking to her, she was going to be successful.'  She faced sexism, shed a husband and found her voice teaching law in Houston.  This is where Liz Warren became Elizabeth Warren."

Elizabeth Warren's stubborn dishonesty on raising middle-class taxes.  Sen. Elizabeth Warren deservedly drew heat from several rivals over her stubborn refusal to acknowledge that implementing a $32 trillion plan to provide free health insurance to everybody would require increasing middle-class taxes.  But since she keeps trying to make the same bad argument, it's worth reviewing what's so dishonest about it.  Warren, whenever she's asked about whether middle-class taxes would go up, argues that costs would only go up for corporations and the wealthy, but "costs would go down for the middle class."  Essentially, she's trying to make the case that because middle-class Americans would be getting free healthcare, their costs would go down overall.

When Does Serial Lying Become Disqualifying, Liz?  Maybe Liz is suffering from some memory issues.  After all, she's old.  Or maybe she's just a chronic and habitual liar.  Indeed, maybe she engages in compulsive or pathological lying.  Regardless of the etiology for Lyin' Liz's stories, we need to get a better idea of what kind of character and temperament this woman has and whether she's fit to be president. [...] Liz is quite the little actress.  It's depressing that so many Americans buy Warren's kind of politicking.  She sashays on stage like some celebrity, waving to those assembled, and then embraces some supporter, some local stooge whom I doubt she knows.  Campaigns should be more like job interviews than fan fests.

Here are five questions that need to be asked.  [#3] Third, since Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., is now rated the front runner, how many candidates agree with her position that California's public school gender indoctrination should be extended to the rest of the country?  Because this is a new issue — only now emerging into public conversation — it is worth quoting a question from the recent CNN town hall.  Question:  "How do you feel about schools teaching children about gender orientation and gender identity?  In California, we're already starting those kinds of teachings and parents have been very upset and outraged.

Elizabeth Warren Gets Roasted for Her Pandering on 'Indigenous Peoples' Day'.  The woman who lied about having Cherokee heritage in order to get ahead in her career has a message for Americans on "Indigenous Peoples' Day."

CNN Failed to Disclose Warren Town Hall Questioner Was Maxed-Out Donor.  Democratic presidential candidate Elizabeth Warren's zinger at an LGBT town hall may have gone viral, but CNN failed to disclose that the questioner donated the federal maximum to her 2018 Massachusetts Senate campaign.  CNN's Chris Cuomo introduced Morgan Cox at the Thursday town hall as "the chair of the Human Rights Campaign board of directors" who was part of "a real estate investment firm in Dallas, Texas." [...] The CNN chyron described Cox as "Chair, Human Rights Campaign Board of Directors."  It could have just as easily identified Cox as "Donor, Elizabeth Warren."  Cox's Twitter profile indicates that his full name is "Morgan W. Cox III" and he is a partner at the investment firm Marquis Group.  The Marquis Group is located in Plano, Tex., part of the larger Dallas-Fort Worth metropolitan area.

Elizabeth Warren's faux Cherokee, faux victim, faux media narratives.  With the presidential prospects of former Vice President Joe Biden fading due to his shady Ukrainian business dealings on behalf of son Hunter, Sen. Elizabeth Warren has become the newest darling of the Democrat/Media complex.  But can Warren survive with her faux Cherokee, faux victim, overall faux media narrative past?  The problem with Warren is her tendency to tell tall biographical tales to make up for what she obviously sees as her inadequacies.  And her current troubles, as was the case for those in her past, revolve around the accident of her birth.

Elizabeth Warren Is Jussie Smollett.  What Senator Warren has in common with Jussie Smollett turns out to have nothing to do with skin tone.  Smollett, you'll recall, regaled the nation with the story of a couple of violent, Trump-loving, MAGA-hat-wearing white supremacists who just happened to be cruising a gay neighborhood in Chicago on the coldest night of the year, who also just happened to be fans of Empire, who also just happened to have some rope at hand.  Who happened, as it turns out, to be a couple of Nigerian brothers and colleagues of Smollett's.  Fiction, yes.  Deployed, as we are always told when these lies are exposed as lies, in the service of a larger truth, a truth of which such habitual and irredeemable liars as Warren, Biden, Smollett — and Lena Dunham, and the so-called journalists of Rolling Stone, and the perpetrators of a thousand phony campus hate-crime hoaxes — are the appointed apostles.

It's Good To Be A Democrat.  Elizabeth Warren straight-up lied about being a Native American.  She did it to get jobs, high-paying jobs.  When someone finally got around to noticing that she's so white her camouflage in a snowstorm is nudity, her story fell apart.  But it didn't matter.  The media made sure to protect her, downplaying her 1/1024th rounding error percentage of possible Native American DNA.  Now Warren is back, this time claiming she was fired from a teaching job in 1971 because she was "visibly pregnant."  It's a story she's been telling on the campaign trail for a while, but one she hasn't told in past campaigns.  It's also something the liberal media ignored, never bothering to look into it at all.

Rubio hits Warren's 'crude' and 'vulgar' response to opposition to same-sex marriage.  Sen. Marco Rubio (R-Fla.) criticized Sen. Elizabeth Warren's (D-Mass.) response to a town hall question about same-sex marriage earlier this week.  On Warren's response, Rubio tweeted Saturday, "Vividly captures the condescension of elites & their incessant ridicule of Americans with traditional values.  It elicits glee among celebrities & blue check brigade."  "But for the millions sick of being disrespected it elicits support for fighting back, even in a crude or vulgar way," Rubio continued.

Elizabeth Warren mocks Christian men, delights Democrat base.  There is no logical defense of redefining marriage to accommodate the 2% of Americans who are gay.  They are generally massively promiscuous and hardly ever have long-term monogamous relationships.  But by redefining marriage, the dishonest judges on the Supreme Court have put society's imprimatur on the massively promiscuous, objectifying, and decidedly unhealthy gay lifestyle.  When thrown a softball question on this by someone who appears to be a significant donor to her campaign, but who was billed as just some random person, Elizabeth Warren vilified all Christian men.  The question was "Senator, I am old-fashioned, and my faith teaches me that marriage is between one man and one woman.  What is your response?"  Her response was amazingly bigoted, sexist, and racist.

Elizabeth Warren wraps herself in the victimhood of others.  In a post called "Not just a fake Indian," Scott discussed Elizabeth Warren's claim that, as a young teacher, she was let go because she became pregnant.  The claim is false, as demonstrated by records of the school board in question and confirmed by what Warren herself said in 2007. Warren is sticking to her story.  She is an inveterate liar.  One point that Warren keeps making is that her (fake) experience as a pregnant woman in the workforce mirrors that of millions of women in the 1950s, 60s, and 70s.  I've heard Warren's supporters in the media say the same thing in her defense.  But the victimhood of others has no relevance to the key issue of whether Warren is lying when she claims to be a victim.  I don't doubt that in the past, many women lost jobs because of pregnancy.  I don't doubt that there are many Indians.  Warren's problem is that she is not part of either group, but claims to be.

Elizabeth Warren's way of winning 2020 nomination risks re-electing Trump.  It's the Elizabeth Warren moment.  She has risen in the polls and is now tied with Joe Biden atop the Real Clear Politics average.  And that rise will likely continue, since she is bound to benefit from Bernie Sanders' health crisis.  She and Sanders have spent the year so far splitting the progressive Democratic vote, and his heart attack last week, as well as the three days of prevaricating his campaign did about it, will likely hasten his polling decline.  Sanders did not appear in the CNN town hall dedicated to gay issues due to his ongoing recovery, which surely raises questions about whether he will actually be on the stage Tuesday when the Democratic field meets for its October debate.

Nearly Hidden in Elizabeth Warren's Workers Plan:  A Vow to Give Back Pay to Illegal Aliens.  Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.), currently the leading 2020 Democratic presidential candidate in many polls, has pledged to "fight" for illegal immigrants to be given back pay.  Many Americans may not realize this point, however — because this key detail in her "Empowering American Workers and Raising Wages" plan — which she released on October 3 — hasn't gotten much attention in the mainstream media.  The Warren workers plan declares that illegal immigrants will be eligible to receive back pay for previous work they did in the United States — and the progressive senator is apparently determined to make this happen by amending the National Labor Relations Act (NLRA).

Media's defenses of Elizabeth Warren show liberals have successfully worked the refs.  In the past week, the media has worked overtime to defend Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren after contemporary documentary evidence proved she's been blatantly lying about yet another biographical detail, this one pertaining to her claim of having been dismissed from her teaching job because she was "visibly pregnant."  This is an early demonstration of the fact that liberals have successfully worked the refs, and should Warren emerge as the nominee, we should expect a media lovefest not seen since Barack Obama's 2008 campaign for president.

Elizabeth Warren, The Most Dangerous Candidate For President Ever.  Unlike Sen. Bernie Sanders and Eugene Debs, Warren is not an admitted socialist.  But she is a greater threat than Debs ever was because she has a chance.  In five runs for the White House, Debs never had more than 6% of the popular vote.  Warren, however, now leads all Democrats in the RealClearPolitics average of polls, having passed the fading Joe Biden for the top spot.  She will also have the legacy media 100% behind her, an advantage not only in the election but it ramming policies through Congress.  She could not possibly propose anything so radical that the Democrats with keyboards, cameras, and microphones would question it.  Though Sanders has the socialist history and the credentials, Warren, not so long ago a Republican, is more closely aligned to Marxism than the Vermont senator.

Not just a fake Indian!  When it suited her purposes in the world of academia, Elizabeth Warren absurdly presented herself as an American Indian, and it suited the purposes of academia to buy it.  Running for the Democratic presidential nomination, Warren now poses as a former victim of benighted authorities who fired her from her first teaching job in 1971 because she was pregnant.  She somehow overcame to become a Harvard law professor, though we suspect that the fake Indian thing propelled her to Harvard.

Warren Proposes Ending Trump Tax Cuts and Adding 3 New Taxes.  Senator and presidential contender Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass) has proposed rolling back the tax cuts implemented by the Trump administration in 2018 and imposing an "ultra-millionaire tax," an "excessive Lobbying Tax," and an increased tax on gun manufacturers."  She claims these new taxes will ultimately serve the purpose of financing "universal childcare, student loan debt relief, and down payments on a Green New Deal and Medicare for All."

Elizabeth Warren's Workers Plan Will Provide Back Pay to Illegal Aliens.  Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA), a leading 2020 Democrat presidential primary candidate, is vowing to "fight" for back pay for illegal aliens.  As part of Warren's "Empowering American Workers and Raising Wages" plan, illegal aliens who have worked illegally in the United States — sometimes by stealing Americans' identities and Social Security numbers — would become eligible to receive back pay for their previous work by amending the National Labor Relations Act.

Why Elizabeth Warren is ashamed of Elizabeth Warren.  Forget that whole being an Indian thing.  Today Elizabeth Warren is the poor teacher who was shown the door by the principal when he found out she was (dare I say the word in mixed company?) regnant-pay.  Of course, both are lies.  Her whole political career is built on lies.  The latest one concerns her leaving teaching to be a stay-at-home mom for her daughter who was born on September 2, 1971.  Although Warren lacked teaching credentials, she was granted a waiver.  She was offered a second-year contract in April 1971 but resigned two months later because of her pregnancy.  That's a pretty wholesome story and she went with it in a 2007 interview at the University of California, Berkeley, which was 5 years before she sought public office.

Elizabeth Warren:  Leading Liar in the Party of Liars.  Warren has surpassed Joe Biden in more than the polls.  She has also eclipsed his role as the race's most shameless prevaricator, which is practically a job requirement in today's Democratic Party.  The latest lie she told is the Biden type, a reimagining of history to bolster her résumé and personal story.  One of her cornerstone stories while campaigning is that she was fired from a teaching job because she was pregnant.  In Warren's telling, her horrible principal wished her luck and threw her out on the street.  That news must come as a real shock to the maligned principal and board of education, since they appear to have treated Warren with nothing but respect and offered her a job extension.  They accepted Warren's resignation with regret, and why not?  It's not every day you lose your sole American Indian on staff, which no doubt immediately messed up their "diversity is our strength" ratio. [...] In a sane world, Warren would be a laughingstock at best and a social pariah at worst.

When will Warren unveil her plan to tell the truth?  Fake Indian speak with forked tongue — again!  What other conclusion can you draw from this latest controversy over her ever-evolving autobiography, this chapter involving the end to her public school teaching career, almost a half-century ago?  Which account should we have more confidence in — Fauxcahontas' current campaign stump speech, or the exact opposite, namely, what she herself said on video in 2007, backed by school board minutes from 1971, contemporaneous newspaper accounts and her former colleagues' recollections.  The preponderance of evidence seems to be that, as one wag put it yesterday, she's putting the "lie" back in Lieawatha.  Her campaign brags that the fake Indian has a plan for everything, most of which involve a) higher taxes, b) reduced freedom for Americans or c) both.  Here's an idea for another new Warren plan:  telling the truth about her past.

Elizabeth Warren's pregnancy victim narrative blown apart by county records.  When the news broke yesterday [10/7/2019] that Elizabeth Warren probably invented the tale of her pregnancy firing as a teacher, some benefit of the doubt was fair, given that an old tape of her describing the reason she left her job could have been incomplete, and maybe there was more than one reason she left the job.  Welp.  Now we've got the county records.  The Washington Free Beacon went digging into the microfiches or the physical records themselves from the early 1970s, which is very challenging non-Google research doable only on location in Riverdale, New Jersey, and pretty well blew that Warren story out of the water.

Elizabeth Warren Does Not Like the Stock Market.  Elizabeth Warren seeks to prohibit federal judges from owning individual stocks.  She wrote on Monday [10/7/2019] that "my plan would eliminate the appearance of impropriety by banning federal judges from owning or trading individual stocks, while allowing them to instead invest in conflict-free mutual funds or open new investment accounts managed by the Federal Retirement Thrift Investment Board."  This proposal follows another one by Warren aiming to ban elected federal officeholders from owning individual stocks and still others that see Wall Street the way Moriarty views Holmes.  For many Americans teetering "on the ragged edge of the middle class," stock ownership acts as the most direct route to a better life.  Why, even among those far from on the ragged edge of anything, should government inhibit this through law?

Elizabeth Warren stands by [her] account of being pushed out of her first teaching job because of pregnancy.  On the campaign trail, Elizabeth Warren often tells the story of how she was fired from her first teaching job in 1971 because she was pregnant, a pivotal moment that ultimately put her on a path to Harvard, the United States Senate, and quite possibly the presidency.  But recently, several media outlets have questioned the veracity of these claims.  In an exclusive interview with CBS News on Monday evening, Warren said she stands by her characterizations of why she left the job.  "All I know is I was 22 years old, I was 6 months pregnant, and the job that I had been promised for the next year was going to someone else.  The principal said they were going to hire someone else for my job," she said.

Trump's exaggerations stand in stark contrast to Democrats' actual lies.  Let's start with Senator Elizabeth Warren, who is rising in the polls.  The latest inconsistency in her campaign involves her telling audiences that when she was 22 and newly married, she faced job discrimination based on being pregnant: [...] But in 2007 while in California, she gave a different version of events. [...] Warren's phony concern for women is more problematic elsewhere.  She was instrumental in the silicon breast implant case.  However, she did not represent the injured women.  Instead, she represented the defendant, Dow-Corning.  Warren claimed native American heritage until the genetic test she took showed very little evidence of it.  Yet she did use this to her advantage in Texas and in academia.  To an objective observer, her resume demonstrates a pattern for prevarications that a Democrat could expect the media would ignore.

That Latest Elizabeth Warren Lying Scandal Just Got Much Worse.  Who could have imagined that Elizabeth Warren could have the capacity to lie about her background?  Shocking, if true.  Warren has been sharing an anecdote lately involving the claim that she was once fired from a teaching job over being pregnant.  This obviously plays into every woke stereotype involving discrimination and the current Democrat presidential candidate has decided to make her story a staple of her stump speech.  You can find examples of it being spouted going back to the beginning of the year.  The problem was that Warren had told a completely different story back in 2007, as was covered here at RedState late last week.

More Evidence Emerges Elizabeth Warren Lied About Being Fired for Pregnancy.  New evidence emerged Monday [10/7/2019] that Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) has been untruthful in telling voters she was fired from a teaching job because she was "visibly pregnant."  As Breitbart News noted Sunday, Warren's campaign tale was called into question by a 2007 interview in which she suggested she left for lack of qualifications and interest.  County records published by the Washington Free Beacon on Monday [10/7/2019] confirm that Warren resigned and was never fired.

Will Capitalists Fight Elizabeth Warren, Or Sell Her The Rope?  With President Trump facing a high-risk impeachment, and far-left Democrat Elizabeth Warren now beating Joe Biden in national polls — including the latest IBD/TIPP poll — anyone on the productive side of the economy should be deeply worried, and ready to do anything to prevent Warren from getting the keys to the White House.  Instead, some are already trying to make peace with the prospect of a Warren presidency. [...] There's no mystery motivation here.  People in the business of making money want to be able to play ball with whoever occupies the Oval Office.  But more soldiers have saved their own lives in the face of the enemy with artillery than with wishful thinking, and business and finance shouldn't kid themselves:  Sens. Warren, Bernie Sanders, Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and the like are their mortal enemies.

Elizabeth Warren caught makin' it up about her pregnancy discrimination.  Elizabeth Warren has a pretty impressive penchant for makin' it up when it comes to serving a leftist narrative.  Fake Indian, complete with tales of discrimination experienced, worked for awhile, until it didn't.  So did the fake research, claiming medical costs are the reason behind most bankruptcies.  Nope, not at all.  Now we have Warren saying that when she became pregnant as a young teacher of special-ed students, presumably in the 1960s, she was asked to leave her post for being visibly pregnant.  A found tape of her speaking in 2008 suggests maybe she actually wanted to leave her dead-end job teaching special-ed to scale the career ladder instead.

Elizabeth Warren Said She Was Pushed Out Of Teaching Job For Being 'Visibly Pregnant' — But She Told A Different Story In 2007.  Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren has repeatedly claimed on the presidential campaign trail that she was pushed out of her job as a special needs teacher after one year because she was "visibly pregnant" — but she told a different story in 2007.  The Democratic senator today portrays herself as a victim of discrimination; however, in 2007 she linked her departure to lacking proper credentials for a permanent teaching position.

The Editor says...
When was the last time a teacher was forced out of her job for being "visibly pregnant?"  That might have happened before 1960, but no later.  Nice try, Liz.  What else have you got?

Warren: Taxpayers must fund sex reassignment surgery.  "Everyone should be able to access high-quality, affordable, gender-affirming health care, but the Trump administration is trying to roll back important protections for trans Americans," Warren tweeted Tuesday.  "Help fight back by leaving a comment for HHS in protest."  With former President Barack Obama's Affordable Care Act — also known as his signature "Obamacare" plan that unconstitutionally forces Americans to pay for a service they don't want, including abortions for others — being scaled back under President Donald Trump's administration, Warren is determined to recover all the losses for the LGBT community while adding new privileges (dubbed as "rights").

The Editor says...
Excuse me for stating the obvious, but a sex change operation is not "gender-affirming."  It is exactly the opposite.

The 2020 black vote:  Warren searches; Trump surges.  Elizabeth Warren may be rising in the polls, but she still faces one major uphill battle in earning the presidential nomination from the Democrat Party:  earning the support of black voters.  And after The New York Times ran a surprising piece on Warren's recent struggles to connect with black voters — the outlook did not appear any brighter for the Massachusetts senator.

What I saw at the Elizabeth Warren rally.  The most obvious takeaway is that Warren is rising.  Based on her own energetic appearance and stump speech, she's now begun campaigning as if she's got the Democratic nomination in the bag, and she's now attempting to move to the center.

Trump vs. Warren:  Trump Builds, Warren Destroys.  [Scroll down]  Obama spoke the words that other nations wanted to hear, and he spoke them because he shared their disdain.  He believed that America needed to be "transformed" from what it had been in the past.  That kind of antagonism toward America is shared by Elizabeth Warren today.  She does not speak with awe of the Greatest Generation that saved the world from fascism and communism.  Nor does she celebrate the greatness of our capitalist economy, the sanctity of life, the Second Amendment, the right of religious expression in the public sphere, the need for a strong military and police force (including ICE), the crucial role of the family, or even the debt we owe to our legal immigrants.  Instead, Warren is pushing the transformation of America farther.  Her official website offers no fewer than 46 "plans" for changing America.  It says nothing about preserving what is good about our country.

Video appears to contradict Warren's suggestion that school fired her over pregnancy.  Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., suggested this week that a school principal effectively fired her from a teaching job after she became "visibly pregnant," but a resurfaced video indicates that wasn't the actual reason she left the job.

Democrats' Contempt for the Sanctity of Life.  The essence of liberalism, as I see it, is a lack of restraint rooted in egotism and self.  The Warren presidential campaign is a perfect example.  If elected, Elizabeth Warren will, according to her own admission, attempt to closely regulate all large businesses, eliminate fracking and the jobs that go with it, provide Medicare for All, dictate health care decisions (including practically unlimited abortion "rights"), eliminate capital punishment, raise taxes on the wealthy and on corporations, provide free college, cancel student debt, eliminate the Electoral College, ban assault weapons, open our borders, legalize marijuana, and significantly cut the defense budget.  Warren's policies show her to be an extremist driven by ideology rather than concern for the individuals whom she would tax, endanger, disenfranchise, and tyrannize with regulation and social mandates.  Where is her concern for the individuals whose lives she would alter so radically with her sweeping reforms?  Those lives are sacred, their right to prosper and save is sacred, and their right to safety and security is sacred.  Warren does not seem to have thought much about the dangers of unrestrained immigration or the fact that a weakened national defense will put all Americans at risk.  What is she describing is tyranny, plain and simple.

Warren Stammers After Reporter Asks If She Would Allow Her VP's Son to Serve on Foreign Company Board.  Presidential hopeful Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) was taken by surprise and stammered when a reporter asked if "it would be ethical if her hypothetical vice president's son served on the board of a foreign company."  Warren said, "No," as she was at a campaign stop in New Hampshire.  She immediately backtracked and added, "I don't know.  I mean I'd have to go back and look at the details."  CBS campaign reporter, Nicole Sgana, tweeted Warren "appears uncharacteristically flustered when asked if her ethnics plan would allow her Vice President's son to serve on the board of a foreign company."

Warren Surrounded in Reno Airport by Trump Supporters Shouting 'Stop the Impeachment'.  Trump supporters swarmed Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) at a Reno airport and demanded her to "stop the impeachment" of President Trump, according to a video posted by the Nevada GOP on Wednesday [10/2/2019].  The Nevada GOP posted a video of Trump supporters flocking the presidential candidate, holding signs and shouting, "Stop the impeachment" and "don't impeach," as she scurried along, dragging her luggage across the airport.  One individual can be heard referring to her as "Pocahontas."

Impeach Trump And Say Hello To President Elizabeth Warren.  Republicans thinking about supporting the impeachment of President Donald Trump should consider this:  If Trump is removed from office before the November 2020 elections, it would virtually guarantee that the next president will be Sen. Elizabeth Warren, with enough power in Congress to carry out much of her radical agenda. [...] Eliminating the filibuster would give Warren the ability to enact most of her agenda.  Socialized medicine, the destruction of the U.S. energy industry on the altar of climate change, waves of new regulations, an economically ruinous wealth tax.  A country forever changed.

Warren Backs AOC's Illegal Immigrant Welfare Plan.  Democratic presidential candidate Elizabeth Warren endorsed a Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D., N.Y.) policy proposal that includes taxpayer-funded welfare benefits for illegal immigrants.  Ocasio-Cortez's proposal, dubbed "A Just Society," calls for nationwide rent control and bans the federal government from denying welfare benefits based on an individual's immigration status and previous criminal convictions.  Warren became the first Democratic presidential candidate to endorse the plan, calling it "just the type of bold, comprehensive thinking we'll need" to make "big, structural change."

Elizabeth Warren:  Amnesty for All Illegal Aliens Is 'Good' for American Workers.  Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA), a top candidate for the 2020 Democrat presidential nomination, says amnesty for every illegal alien living in the United States is "good for" American workers who will be forced to compete against newly legalized low-skilled foreign workers.  During a town hall with the United Food and Commercial Workers (UFCW) union in Madison Heights, Michigan, Warren said she will give amnesty to all 12 to 22 million illegal aliens living in the country, a move that would immediately drive up foreign competition in the labor market for America's working and blue-collar class.

Elizabeth Warren's Native American Problem Isn't Going Away.  I suppose people think that the controversy over Warren's past claims of Native American ancestry has been put to bed, with Warren rising in the polls because she has plans for everything, including for Native Americans.  But in fact, the controversy has not been put to bed, and it shouldn't be.  It points to Elizabeth Warren's ambitions and lack of integrity, and forces us to ponder whether the rules really apply to those who would make them.

Impeachment nonsense provides cover for Dems' daffy promises.  [Scroll down]  Elizabeth Warren recently proposed a "wealth tax" — anyone with a net worth (as opposed to income) of more than $50 million would have to pay an extra $1 million a year in taxes.  Some countries have tried this, but it only led to flight of capital and massive fraud.  Among the nations that eliminated the tax were France, Germany, Italy, Ireland, Sweden and the Netherlands.  Not to mention, what's to stop some couple with a net worth of above $50 million from divorcing to get under the threshold?  So Bernie Sanders took one look at the Warren plan (and most likely his drooping poll numbers) and adjusted it to ensnare any taxpayer with a net worth of over $32 million.

Warren Financially Benefited from Private Prisons Despite Claiming They Are 'Profiteering off Cruelty'.  Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) benefited financially from the existence of private prisons despite vowing to ban them on the grounds that they are "profiteering off cruelty," a report from the Washington Free Beacon revealed.  Warren pledged in June to ban private immigration centers and private prisons, detailing the vow in a Medium post.

Elizabeth Warren, unabashed liar.  Sen. Elizabeth Warren, who's seen a bit of a boom in polls for president lately, came forward with a statement about President Donald Trump's whistleblower affair that if nothing else, serves as a classic textbook example of How Liars Lie.  The unabashed ones, anyway.  "Donald Trump believes he is above the law — and he will continue to commit crimes from the White House until we hold him accountable," she tweeted.  Except, of course, that Donald Trump hasn't been found guilty of committing any crimes.  Yes.  There is that.  But impeach away, she wrote.  "The House needs to vote on articles of impeachment — and when it comes to the Senate," the Massachusetts Democrat tweeted, "I will do what the Constitution requires."  What's the crime?  What's the impeachable offense?

Wall Street Democratic donors warn the party:  We'll sit out, or back Trump, if you nominate Elizabeth Warren.  Democratic donors on Wall Street and in big business are preparing to sit out the presidential campaign fundraising cycle — or even back President Donald Trump — if Sen. Elizabeth Warren wins the party's nomination.  In recent weeks, CNBC spoke to several high-dollar Democratic donors and fundraisers in the business community and found that this opinion was becoming widely shared as Warren, an outspoken critic of big banks and corporations, gains momentum against Joe Biden in the 2020 race.

Elizabeth Warren in New Hampshire: impeachment 'not a matter of politics'.  U.S. Sen. Elizabeth Warren says impeachment proceedings against President Trump are "not a matter of politics" but of constitutional responsibility — applauding the House for finally launching an inquiry while hedging on its likelihood of success in the Senate.

The Smoke Signals Say It'll Be Trump Vs.  Warren.  Elizabeth Warren is on the way to securing the Democrat nomination, and the ensuing general election battle will be a re-run of Little Bighorn except, ironically, Sitting Bolshevik will be Custer.  Trump's going to drag her kicking and screaming and nagging, always nagging, down the trail of tears until that glorious November night when Pennsylvania, Michigan, Wisconsin and maybe Minnesota all express their reservations over sending this tiresome scold to the White Wigwam in Washington.

Senator Elizabeth Warren's net worth revealed as the 2020 Presidential Election heats up.  Warren, who is currently a U.S. Senator in Massachusetts, is regarded as one of the more liberal candidates in the current Democratic race.  The senator has built her campaign on promising middle-class Americans to fight for their equality.  "Rich guys have been waging class warfare against hard-working people for decades," Warren said in her speech announcing her candidacy for president.  "I say it's time to fight back!" [...] Forbes reported the presidential hopeful is worth an estimated $12 million.

Elizabeth Warren is coming for your retirement account.  If there's one thing Democrats have always wanted to get their hands on, it's workers' private retirement accounts — the 401(k)s, the Roth IRAs, the Social Security checks.  The idea is that that big pot of stored savings can be spent now for leftist social programs instead of raising taxes, and let what happens happen to people who've saved for retirement.  We saw it in 2010, in the Democrats' effort to "Argentinize" U.S. 401(k)s and replace them with "guaranteed retirement accounts," using the private savings to bail out failing public pensions.  It fell flat, but that didn't stop Democrats.  The job-free economy created by the Obama administration then drove many workers to deplete their private retirement savings just to stay afloat, which served Democrat interests, too.

Ukraine 'Bombshell' Will Explode in Democratic Faces.  The already questionable credibility of Elizabeth Warren was recently damaged when, based on a now-debunked New York Times story, she precipitously demanded the impeachment of Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh.  A similarly impulsive Democratic response to the "explosive" claims made by an anonymous intelligence official about a telephone conversation between President Trump and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky will inevitably explode in their faces.

The long Civil War.  [Scroll down]  It was a ringing call to victory over the Deplorables, victory by any means necessary.  It was as if the old legalisms themselves had become too restrictive to allow the truly good guys to win.  As Hillary Clinton told an audience at George Washington University:  "You can run the best campaign and have the best plans and get the nomination and win the popular vote and you can lose the Electoral College and therefore the election." [...] She deserved to win but the rules betrayed her.  If you can't win the old way, change the rules.  To avoid another setback to history Elizabeth Warren proposes to abolish the Electoral College.  "Every vote matters, and the way we can make that happen is that we can have national voting, and that means get rid of the Electoral College," Ms. Warren said.  If that doesn't work keep getting rid of stuff until it does.

Why Trump Will Trounce Biden or Warren.  It's still early in the 2020 campaign cycle, so political predictions are risky.  Nonetheless, it appears that the race for the Democratic presidential nomination has already become a two-person contest.  Elizabeth Warren has replaced Bernie Sanders as the most formidable challenger to front-runner Joe Biden according to the most recent YouGov, SurveyUSA, and NBC/WSJ polls. [...] This is very good news for President Trump, who will have little difficulty beating Biden or Warren.

The New Road to Serfdom.  Senators Sanders and Warren are battling for the heart and soul of the progressive wing of the democrat party by making outlandish promises.  Neither claims to be a socialist, Sanders says he's a democratic socialist whatever that is, but their proposals and philosophy certainly have the trappings of Socialism.  Their basic philosophy is to promise programs that guarantee individual security and deliver on those promises by increasing government authority over all aspects of life and the economy.  Senator Sanders has just introduced his Green New Deal with a price tag of $16 trillion over 10 years.  This is on top of Medicare for All, free tuition, family leave, and expanded social security.  Depending on whose analysis is used, the cost of these promises has to exceed $4 trillion annually.  The Federal Government's budget for this fiscal year is only $4.4 trillion.

Elizabeth Warren's war on men is an insulting, losing strategy.  Elizabeth Warren made the political calculation this week that she doesn't need men to win the presidency.  "We're not here today because of famous arches or famous men," she told a rally in Washington Square Park Monday night [9/16/2019].  "In fact, we're not here because of men at all," she said, emphasizing the "m" word like an expletive.  Great.  Then she won't mind if men don't vote for her, nor women who like men.  It's a losing strategy, taken straight out of the playbook of Hillary Clinton, from whom, reportedly and inexplicably, Warren has been taking advice.

Dems Will Have To Lie About Their Agenda To Win, Poll Shows.  Late-night talk show host Steven Colbert had Sen. Elizabeth Warren on recently and asked her a simple question.  "How are you going to pay for it?"  Colbert was referring specifically to Warren's radical Medicare for All plan.  "Are you going to raise taxes on the middle class?"  Warren, who's been rising in the polls, wouldn't answer.  She can't answer honestly, if she wants to have any hope of being president.  Nor can any of the other Democrats running president be honest about their agendas.  That's made clear by a recent Harvard/Harris Poll, the results of which got far too little attention.  Colbert wasn't the first person to press Warren for an answer about middle-class taxes.  She dodged the same question during the Democratic debate last week.

Warren Says She Can End Corruption, But Her Policies Will Feed It.  Elizabeth Warren promises that if elected, the first thing she will do as president is push through a "sweeping" anti-corruption plan that will "take power away from the wealthy and the well-connected in Washington and put it back where it belongs — in the hands of the people." [...] Whatever the merits of Warren's specific anti-corruption proposals, the simple truth is that the rest of her agenda would have the exact opposite effect.  The problem with all these "anti-corruption" efforts is that they are trying to treat the symptom, not the disease.  And, in this case, the disease is Big Government.  Put simply, the larger and more unencumbered the federal government is, the more it will feed the lobbyist industry and the political corruption that Warren says she wants to root out.

Warren, before huge NYC crowd, touts herself as an heir to female pioneers.  Sen. Elizabeth Warren hailed the political power of female-led organizing in a speech Monday night that invoked the deadly 1911 Triangle Shirtwaist Factory fire to argue that outrage can spark positive change — and to make the case for her own presidential ambitions.

Progressive tax-the-rich push gains momentum.  Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.), who has already proposed a new wealth tax to raise funds for a variety of new government programs, on Thursday unveiled a plan to expand Social Security by creating two new taxes on wage and investment income for wealthy Americans.  The proposal comes as Warren enjoys a long stretch of momentum in the presidential race that has lifted her in polls and put her side-by-side with former Vice President Joe Biden during last week's Democratic debate.

Warren: Kavanaugh 'should be impeached' just like Trump.  Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.), a 2020 presidential contender, joined calls for Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh to be impeached on Sunday following newly reported allegations of sexual misconduct against him.  "Last year the Kavanaugh nomination was rammed through the Senate without a thorough examination of the allegations against him," Warren tweeted Sunday [9/15/2019].  "Confirmation is not exoneration, and these newest revelations are disturbing.  Like the man who appointed him, Kavanaugh should be impeached," she continued, referring to President Trump.

Warren's plans for Big Tech and Big Banks are big trouble.  Last week, Elizabeth Warren made it clear she wants to reign in the banks and Wall Street, and break up Big Tech.  What dumb ideas.  Perhaps the lawyer-turned-overpaid-professor-turned-senator does not understand that America leads the world in banking, finance and technology, too.  And that these fields provide well-paying jobs from companies that offer great benefits.

Warren Wins Sweepstakes for [This] Week's Dumbest Tweet.  The Democrat primary has devolved into an extremism arms race to see who can adopt the most radical position.  Last week's winner, despite steep competition, was Elizabeth Warren, who tweeted out, "On my first day as president, I will sign an executive order that puts a total moratorium on all new fossil fuel leases for drilling offshore and on public lands.  And I will ban fracking — everywhere."  Sundance covered ten negative effects of this action at Conservative Treehouse.  The bottom line is that it would take a sledgehammer to the U.S. economy while tipping the geopolitical map in favor of the world's worst regimes, such as Russia, Iran, Venezuela, and China.

Elizabeth Warren's Indian-persecuting ancestors pile up - and she'd like you to pay the reparations.  Most Americans aren't in for holding people responsible for the misdeeds of their ancestors, but Elizabeth Warren is just a little different. [...] That's quite a record for someone who falsely claimed Native American ancestry in order to win at least two ivy-league teaching posts, and something she continued to perpetrate on her Texas bar card to practice law.  Still stiffing the Indians after all these years, not all that different from her ancestors.  Benefit in hand, and now that she's running for president, she apologizes.

Warren's Socialist Plan:  Raise Taxes, Use Social Security to Redistribute Wealth.  Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) unveiled another key aspect of her progressive agenda hours before the third Democrat presidential debate in Houston, Texas, proposing Thursday to raise Social Security benefits by $200 per month and pay for it by raising taxes on the "rich."

Dem Nomination Is Warren's to Lose — and That's Dangerous.  Not just because of the latest poll, but barring the unforeseen at Thursday night's debate or whenever, the Democratic Party presidential nomination is Elizabeth Warren's to lose.  Joe Biden is too... let's be kind... memory-challenged to survive in the long haul and Bernie Sanders has so completely revealed his Marxist (and anti-Semitic... like his idol Karl, Bernie is a Jewish anti-Semite) soul by making an alliance with the terrorist-friendly, femo-Islamist Linda Sarsour that Ms. Warren has the playing field to herself.

Elizabeth Warren [is] a Direct Descendant of Militia 'Indian Fighter' Who Fought Seminole Tribe.  Sen. Elizabeth Warren's (D-MA) great-great-great grandfather Jonathan Crawford served in Major William Lauderdale's Battalion of Tennessee Volunteer Militia from November 1837 to May 1838, a six month time period during which it fought two battles in Florida against the Seminoles.  Today, there are two federally recognized Native American Seminole tribes, the Seminole Tribe of Florida, which has 4,000 enrolled members, and the Seminole Nation of Oklahoma, which has more than 18,000 enrolled members.

Wall Street is freaking out at the thought of President Liz Warren.  The 2020 election is still a long way off, but the nation's big banks are already pricing in the possibility of an Elizabeth Warren presidency, their senior executives tell me.  The picture ain't pretty — for the banks or average Americans.  True, Warren isn't the Democrats' frontrunner, and a lot could happen in coming months.  Because it's early, financial stocks haven't officially started to suffer.  But the bank execs note that Warren is smart and driven, and they fear she may be starting to break out of the pack, where she can do some damage.

Cramer: Wall Street executives are saying Elizabeth Warren's 2020 bid has 'got to be stopped'.  Leaders in the financial industry are really worried about the possibility of Sen. Elizabeth Warren becoming president, CNBC's Jim Cramer said Tuesday [9/10/2019].  "When you get off the desk and talk to executives, they're more fearful of her winning," Cramer said on "Squawk on the Street."  Cramer said he's hearing a "she's got to be stopped" mantra bubbling up among executives on Wall Street and elsewhere.  Warren, a champion of the left wing for her bank-bashing and wealth-taxing proposals, has been doing better at the polls in the crowded field of candidates vying for the 2020 Democratic presidential nomination.

Elizabeth Warren edges Joe Biden across early presidential states, polling finds.  Sen. Elizabeth Warren has pulled ahead of former Vice President Joseph R. Biden among voters across 18 early presidential states, including New Hampshire, according to polling released on Sunday [9/8/2019].  In aggregate vote preference across the states expected to hold early primaries and caucuses, Ms. Warren was in front of Mr. Biden, 26% to 25%, with Sen. Bernard Sanders in third at 19%, according to the CBS News/YouGov polling.

So Hillary Clinton is the éminence grise behind Elizabeth Warren?  Up until now, Hillary Clinton and Elizabeth Warren, have always been reported as two aging leftists unable to stand each other. [...] Warren may still not be able to stand Clinton, but Clinton is useful to Warren for rigging the Democratic nomination.

Report: Hillary Clinton [is] Working Behind the Scenes With Elizabeth Warren.  Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and Massachusetts Democratic Sen. Elizabeth Warren are reportedly developing a close political friendship that might prove pivotal to deciding the Democratic presidential nomination.  Both have kept in touch since Warren announced her decision to seek the Democratic nomination last February, NBC News reported Saturday [9/7/2019].  One source close to NBC told the media outlet that the two had conversed at least once since Warren's announcement, while another could recall a recent, substantive conversation that was "front of mind."

Elizabeth Warren Wants To Put Millions Of People Out Of Work On Her First Day As President.  The left has decided that they hate the fossil fuel industry.  This means that all the Democrats running in 2020 are trying to outdo each other on how radically they will go after the businesses which provide energy.  They don't seem to care that this is an industry which employs millions of Americans.

Warren's vampire plan seeks to drive a stake through the heart of capitalism.  Elizabeth Warren, the 2020 Democrat presidential hopeful and former Harvard professor, believes private equity companies are parasites on the economy.  The Massachusetts senator describes the business model of private equity firms as being "like vampires — bleeding the company dry and walking away enriched even as the company succumbs."  Who knew that investing growth capital in promising businesses or working capital in struggling businesses was a blood-sucking endeavor?

Report: Elizabeth Warren's 'Free College' Plan Unsustainable if Husband Keeps $400k Harvard Salary.  As presidential candidate Elizabeth Warren travels the country promoting her "free college" plan, her husband earns $400,000 annually as a professor at Harvard University.  According to one expert, "high and rising" salaries for administrators and professors is a leading cause of ballooning college tuition.  According to a report by The College Fix, Senator Elizabeth Warren's "free college" plan may not be sustainable if professors earn as much as her husband.  Warren's husband is Bruce Mann, a professor at Harvard Law School.  Tax documents released this year revealed that Mann makes $400,000 annually in his role at the law school.

Elizabeth Warren's Energy Plan Is Unplugged From Reality.  Not only does she want to eliminate oil, natural gas, and coal as energy sources, she also wants to get rid of nuclear energy — which, in case you're wondering, emits no CO2.  Warren says, "In my administration, we're not going to build any new nuclear power plants, and we are going to start weaning ourselves off nuclear energy and replacing it with renewable fuels.  We're going to get it all done by 2035, but I hope we're getting it done faster than that.  That's the plan."  To understand how completely detached this idea is from reality, let's look at the data on energy production today, which are helpfully compiled by the Energy Department's Energy Information Administration (EIA).

Climate experts want more nuclear power.  Sanders and Warren pledged to eliminate it.  I'm grateful that others had the time and patience to sort through that seven-hour "climate crisis" ratings debacle on CNN this week, because I certainly couldn't sit through it.  One of the key moments, at least in terms of the nation's future energy policy, came from Elizabeth Warren when she decided to weigh in on America's nuclear energy capabilities.  The consensus among virtually every expert in this field, including scientists who are concerned about carbon emissions and climate change, is that we need more nuclear power (actually, a lot more) not less.  And yet there was Warren, vowing to shut down every reactor in the country as quickly as possible.

Elizabeth Warren comes out against nuclear power.  Elizabeth Warren said Wednesday [9/4/2019] she would oppose the building of new nuclear plants in America and work to phase out existing nuclear power from the energy mix.  "In my administration, we won't be building new nuclear plants," Warren said at CNN's climate change town hall.  "We will start weaning ourselves off nuclear and replace it with renewables," she added, saying that she would aim to do so by 2035.

This might go over in Massachusetts, but it doesn't make a good nationwide platform.
Elizabeth Warren's Bias Against Private and Religious Schools — and Their Teachers.  From the time she was a little girl, Sen. Elizabeth Warren of Massachusetts had a dream.  She wanted to work for the government.  "Me, I knew for sure what I wanted to do from second grade on," Warren said in a speech delivered in Philadelphia on May 13.  "I wanted to be a public school teacher."  "Can we hear it for public school teachers?  That's what I wanted," said Warren.  The American Federation of Teachers — a union affiliated with the AFL-CIO — hosted the event Warren addressed.  Notice she did not tell the teachers' union she simply wanted to be a schoolteacher — or a high school teacher, or a grammar school teacher.  She said she wanted to be a "public school teacher."

Elizabeth Warren supporters believe she can win as doubts persist in the Rust Belt.  The Massachusetts senator is a culturally liberal Harvard Law professor who could have difficulty undercutting the president's key advantage among the conservatively inclined white working class and rank-and-file union members.  But the college-educated suburban Democrats at the heart of Warren's burgeoning support, and festive, overflow campaign rallies, aren't simply making political statements or expressing opposition to front-runner Joe Biden.  They are becoming firm believers in her electability.

Pocahontas surges to lead for Dem nomination in odds offered by bookies.  People who are willing to put their money at risk now think Elizabeth Warren is the favorite to win the Democrats' nomination, according to TMZ, which has cited the data on US-Bookies.com.  Biden's polling lead apparently impresses them about as much as it impresses me.  As one pundit noted, it's difficult-to-impossible to find voters who are enthusiastic about Biden.  Most just settle for him because the rest of the field is so pathetic.  I welcome this news because Warren is a phony who cheated her way into prized Ivy league faculty slots on the basis of affirmative action preferences for "women of color," as the Paleface Pocahontas used to describe herself.  Her recent vague "apology" for the unspecified "harm" she did will not suffice with African-American voters.

Sen. Elizabeth Warren's worst lie.  Ms. Warren, who is as white as Ivory Snow, was identified as a "minority faculty member" by the University of Pennsylvania.  She herself asked the school to change her status from white to Native American, according to the Federalist's David Harsanyi.  She self-identified as a "minority" in the school's legal directory, and was listed by Harvard Law School as one of the "women of color" that they had hired for diversity.  This was not just a "mistake" or exaggeration; it was an ongoing lie, as her DNA test last October embarrassingly revealed.  She may or may not have a lone Native American ancestor going back several generations, but she apparently has less Indian blood than the average American white person.  But this is not her worst lie. [...]

Lies are lies.  There is no such thing as good lies, bad lies, better lies and worse lies.

Elizabeth Warren [is] a liar in the eyes of most U.S. voters.  Most likely voters in America think Sen. Elizabeth Warren, one of the Democrat Party's leading contenders for the White House, lied about her Native American heritage, according to a new poll from Rasmussen Reports.  But the rest of the survey says this:  "Most also say it's not a critical issue when it comes to how they will vote," Rasmussen wrote.

The Editor says...
Apparently the American people expect politicians to lie.

Two Simple Questions Elizabeth Warren Cannot, or Will Not, Answer About Her 'Native American' Fiasco.  [#1] Is she a Native American — as in still, to this day?  Her response to this has been to deflect, instead answering different but related questions.  She asserts that she is not a member of a tribe, an about-face from her longtime claims of being a Cherokee, and that she is not a woman of color.  She was bludgeoned into the first reversal under harsh criticism from real Cherokees.  The second point is more perplexing.  Are Native Americans not people of color?  A Native American candidate forum attendee seemed understandably and suitably confused during an appearance on MSNBC:  [Video clip]

Move over, Beto O'Rourke.  Elizabeth Warren is the new plush profile queen.  Sorry, Beto O'Rourke.  The press has found another.  Like a speed-dater, newsrooms have moved on already.  They have shifted the focus of their plush, overly friendly media profiles away from the former Texas congressman to a hopefully more suitable match:  Sen. Elizabeth Warren.

The Two-Faced Elizabeth Warren.  Whatever you think of Fox News and talk radio, they do have a knack for epithets.  And after Elizabeth Warren was discovered to have claimed Native American ancestry before being hired by Harvard Law School, they went straight to work.  Warren was dubbed "Fauxcahontas," "Lieawatha," "Spewing Bull," and "Fraudazuma." She was "on the warpath" sending up "smoke signals"; her Senate campaign was a "Trail of Tears." [...] To the cast of Morning Joe, this is all horrifically racist, while to most normal people, it's something at least a little less than that, because the entire point is that the blonde-haired Warren is only a comedian's idea of a Native American.

Sen. Warren: 'You Didn't Build' That by Yourself, 'All of Us Helped'.  Echoing the "You didn't build that" claim made famous by former President Barack Obama, Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) made a pitch for a new tax while addressing the Black Church PAC's Youth Leadership Conference in Atlanta on Saturday [8/17/2019].  But, Obama's controversial 2012 comment actually appears to have been a paraphrase of remarks Warren made a year earlier when she was running her successful campaign to unseat incumbent Republican Senator Scott Brown.  On Saturday, promoting her proposal for a new "wealth tax," Democrat presidential hopeful Warren told her audience that, if any of them have built a fortune, they didn't do it on their own, because "all of us helped" them.

Moderator Shocked by Lack of Native American Enthusiasm for Warren.  The moderator at a Native American forum was shocked on Monday after Democratic presidential candidate Elizabeth Warren (D., Mass.) received very little enthusiasm about her potential election.  Warren participated in the presidential forum on Native American issues in Sioux, City, IA, where she apologized for the "harm" she caused for her past claims of Native American ancestry.

Fact Check:  Elizabeth Warren Crowd Was 6,000 at Most, not 12,000.  Crowd size is often seen — rightly or wrongly — as a proxy for political support.  It is not always a good measure:  for example, Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) drew massive crowds across California in 2016, but lost the state to former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton by a wide margin.  Still, as the Democratic Party presidential primary heats up, the rival campaigns are touting attendance figures as a sign of momentum.  That creates an incentive to exaggerate.

1/1024th Native American, 100% liar.  Ahead of Elizabeth Warren's much anticipated speech today at the Native American Presidential Forum in Sioux City, IA, here's a quick reminder for you:  Warren is not a Native American — she lied about being one in order to claim minority status at a critical point in her career.  In the "tip sheet" used at the time by law school deans looking to hire minority professors, Warren began listing herself as Native American starting in 1986 (the year before she was hired at Penn) and stopped listing herself as such in 1995 (the year she was hired at Harvard).  Warren's explanation for why she chose to list herself as a minority for that decade period has never made any sense, [...]

Native American Forum Moderator Has to Ask Crowd to Clap for Elizabeth Warren.  [Video clip]

The Editor says...
I don't know about you, but I don't clap on demand.

Warren's pathetic apology.  Elizabeth Warren apologized today for her persistent and false claim that she's part Indian.  An apology was due, in fact it was overdue.  However, this was a simpering, cloying performance, both in manner and in substance.

What the Elites Think Americans 'Need' Has Nothing to Do with Individual Rights.  Leftists incessantly entreat Americans with the question, for example, "why should someone need X millions" of legally acquired dollars?  Our response shouldn't be to ponder or address why someone else might need that amount of money.  That question is utterly irrelevant.  What we should be asking is, what right of mine do I own to demand that the government take their individual property rights from them?  The "ultra-millionaire" wealth tax that Elizabeth Warren has proposed is, without question, an unconstitutional violation of individual property rights.

Warren's 'Faith' Requires Human Sacrifices.  Warren, who supports abortion to the moment of birth, denies the humanity of the unborn and their right to life.  Does she remember the passage where Mary, pregnant with the fetus Christians call Jesus, greeted Elizabeth, and the baby, yes, baby that was to become John the Baptist, leapt in his mother's womb?  Does she remember the passage where God reminds us that even before he formed us in the womb, He knew us?  Warren's faith is very selective.  The faith of our Founding Fathers was absolute when they noted in the Declaration of Independence that our unalienable rights came from our Creator and that foremost among those rights, before liberty and the pursuit of happiness, was life.  Sen. Warren has announced her support for abortions for any reason until birth and for making taxpayers pay for them [...]

A subject on which she is an expert:
Elizabeth Warren Releases Extensive Plan to Empower Tribal Nations and Indigenous Peoples.  Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) released a detailed plan Friday focused on "honoring and empowering tribal nations and Indigenous peoples" that includes numerous proposals ranging from tribal criminal jurisdiction expansion to implementing Medicare for All.  The comprehensive plan, detailed in a lengthy Medium post, aims to protect indigenous people and their land on all fronts — from digital infrastructure to housing to health care.

Why Elizabeth Warren Is Trump's Weakest Opponent.  If a candidate's strongest case for electability is that she won a Senate seat in the most Democratic state in the country — in a banner year for the Democratic Party — then she's got an electability problem.

Sanders, Warren Ask Black Christians to Put Their Faith in Government.  In front of a crowd of black Christian millennials on Saturday, a pair of leading 2020 Democratic candidates asked the faithful to put their trust in the government.  Left-wing darlings Sen. Bernie Sanders (I., Vt.) and Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D., Mass.) appeared back-to-back at a presidential forum put on by Black Church PAC, a day after three other Democratic hopefuls attended the same Young Leaders Conference in Atlanta.

Elizabeth Warren unveils expansive proposal on Native American issues.  Senator Elizabeth Warren on Friday proposed a sprawling set of policies relating to Native Americans and indigenous tribes, accusing the federal government of years of neglect and calling for major economic development initiatives and new legal protections that would give tribes more control over criminal justice and development on their land.

Police Union Rips Warren Over Ferguson Tweet: 'Unacceptable And Dangerous'.  The Massachusetts Police Union blasted presidential hopeful Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D., Mass.) for her misleading tweets about the death of Michael Brown, saying she unfairly accused the police of "causing our society grievous harm."  Scott Hovsepian, president of the Massachusetts Coalition of Police, authored a letter criticizing Warren for misleading her followers by tweeting that Michael Brown "was murdered by a white police officer in Ferguson, Missouri."

Pocahontas' Presidential Run Should be Over.  Democrat presidential candidate Elizabeth Warren said Michael Brown was "murdered" by a "white" policeman in Ferguson, Mo.  I became filled with anger.  I thought, "This wicked woman's presidential run should be over."  Everyone knows Brown was shot while assaulting a police officer in his patrol car while Brown tried to take the officer's gun.  Warren's insidiously evil lie tells voters everything they need to know about her.  Obsessed with gaining power, Warren has decided that the lives of brave and honorable police officers and the lives of Americans potentially killed in a race war are acceptable collateral damage to achieve her goal — the White House.

Elizabeth Warren Calls for 'Affordable, Gender-Affirming' Health Care for Transgender People.  Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) called for health care that is high-quality, affordable, and "gender-affirming" in a tweet posted Tuesday afternoon [8/13/2019].  However, she has not always held that position.  Warren tweeted Tuesday [8/13/2019] that Americans are entitled to "high-quality, affordable, gender-affirming health care" and criticized the Trump administration for considering a proposal that would revise Obama-era protections for transgender adults, who make up 0.6 percent of the U.S. population, according to government data.

Liz Warren Vows to Tax Gun Owners Back to the Stone Age with Radical Anti-Second Amendment Agenda.  U.S. Senator and Democratic presidential contender Liz Warren wants to tax us gun owners back to the Stone Age, as a part of her radical gun control agenda, revealed this weekend.  If elected, Warren promises to raise taxes on firearms and ammo purchases by 30% and 50%, respectively.  That's on top of her plan for federal licensing for gun ownership — presumably with a federal database of who owns what — expanded background checks, and a renewed ban on "assault-style" weapons.

Elizabeth Warren Defends Calling Trump a White Supremacist, Repeats Charlottesville Hoax.  Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) doubled down Thursday [8/8/2019], telling NBC News that President Trump is, unequivocally, a white supremacist and used debunked narratives — including the "very fine people" hoax — to back up her egregious claims.  Warren told the New York Times that Trump is a white supremacist and proudly repeated her answer on Twitter later in the day.

Elizabeth Warren outlines sweeping new gun control plans.  Sen. Elizabeth Warren has unveiled a comprehensive plan to reduce gun violence by enacting a suite of new restrictions on buyers, cracking down on sellers and breaking "the (National Rifle Association's) stranglehold on Congress" with anti-corruption legislation.

Elizabeth Warren unveils $85 billion proposal to guarantee high-speed internet access.  Democratic presidential hopeful Elizabeth Warren unveiled a proposal to guarantee universal high-speed internet access on Wednesday [8/7/2019] as part of a new plan to invest in rural communities.  "I will make sure every home in America has a fiber broadband connection at a price families can afford," the senator from Massachusetts wrote in a post on the blogging platform Medium.  "That means publicly-owned and operated networks — and no giant [internet service providers] running away with taxpayer dollars."  Warren said she would create a federal Office of Broadband Access to manage an $85 billion grant program.

The Editor says...
Your ISP does not "run away" with your money.  It's a business.  You send them money, and they hook you up to the internet.  Socialists do not understand business relationships.  The last thing you want is the U.S. government acting as your ISP.  Why?  [#1] The more you depend on government services, the less freedom you have.  [#2] Other governments around the world have cut off internet service completely, during periods of political turmoil.  [#3] There is already too much domestic surveillance going on, and if all your web-based communications go through a government office, your expectation of privacy should be zero.  ([#4] Your "smart" devices leave quite a trail of evidence.)  And in any event, many people in rural areas are "off the grid" intentionally, and they don't care about internet access.  Ms. Warren, in a transparent effort to buy votes, wants to spend 85 billion dollars to solve a problem that nobody has.

WH Deputy Press Secretary on Warren: 'We Won't Take a Lecture on Economics from an Avowed Socialist'.  Deputy White House Press Secretary Hogan Gidley pushed back against Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.), who criticized President Trump's handling of the economy, saying the White House won't be lectured by "an avowed socialist" who wants to "erode all of the successes and gains we've seen in this administration.  In an interview with Fox News' "America's Newsroom" on Friday, host Sandra Smith quoted Warren as saying, "'We absolutely must be tough on China, but this haphazard approach of tariff by tweet is hurting American farmers — she makes the case — and consumers.  There's no coherent plan beyond more and more escalation.'"

Elizabeth Warren keeps lying through her teeth about 'Medicare for all'.  Seeing as "Medicare for all" would cost at least $32.6 trillion — and that's generously assuming that it could continue to pay an average reimbursement rate 40% lower than that of current private health insurance rates that subsidize public plans — Warren's insistence that her plan would only raise taxes on billionaires and corporations seems to be an overt lie.

Warren Campaign Fellowship Applicants:  It Was a 'Great Scam'.  In a report from the Daily Beast, two young men who had applied to volunteer for Warren's campaign complained that the Senator's image of a trust-busting champion of worker's rights against exploitative corporations does not match the way her own campaign is run.  The applicants told the Daily Beast that they were pushed to take unpaid positions over paid ones, that they were deceived about the possibility of financial assistance and that they were asked to sign irregular nondisclosure agreements.

Warren Predicts An Economic Crash:  Her Policies Will Guarantee It.  Let's leave aside the dubiousness of Warren's self-proclaimed economic forecasting abilities, and the fact that Democrats have been predicting an economic calamity since November 2016.  Here's her central point:  "The country's economic foundation is fragile.  A single shock could bring it all down," she proclaimed.  To emphasize the point, she made it again.  "With a vulnerable economy, we should be reducing the odds of potential shocks that could push us into a downturn."  If that's true, then Warren should abandon her entire economic plan.  It is rife with massive self-imposed shocks that would destroy one entire industry, throw millions out of work, double the size of the federal government, raise taxes to unheard-of levels, and give Washington effective control over corporate decision-making.

Elizabeth Warren's economic plan [is] so bad even CNN says it will crash the economy.  It doesn't get worse for a leftist when even CNN is warning that your "economic solution" to the economic problems you've laid out are going to destroy the economy.  Democratic presidential candidate Elizabeth Warren came out with a big, serious-looking economic plan intoning about a coming economic crash, her own supposed ability to forecast such things, and then calling for free college, a soaring minimum wage, more Dodd-Frank regulations on big bad banks, and lots of free stuff.  It ran at the top of the screen on RealClearPolitics yesterday afternoon, suggesting it's something likely to be talked about.  Christina Alesci, a plain-vanilla CNN "politics and business correspondent" (not one of those politicized talking heads — an actual reporter), blew the whole thing out of the water.

Warren joins other 2020 candidates by declaring her preferred pronouns.  Sen. Elizabeth Warren recently became the latest 2020 presidential candidate to publicly list the pronouns by which she likes to be addressed. [...] "Elizabeth is committed to running an inclusive campaign, and wants every person to know that they are welcome in this movement," a campaign spokesperson for Warren told NBC News.  The declared pronouns are the latest in a series of gestures to the transgender and nonbinary community, a bloc to which the 2020 Democratic candidates have made repeated appeals.

Warren compares herself, 'green manufacturing plan' to JFK and Apollo mission.  Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., suggested on Saturday [7/20/2019] that her presidential campaign plan to combat climate change was analogous to former President John F. Kennedy's efforts to put a man on the moon.  "The Apollo 11 mission is a perfect reminder that if we dream big enough, fight hard enough, and invest in American ingenuity, we can accomplish incredible things," she tweeted after promoting her "Green Manufacturing Plan."  "In fact, we can protect our planet for generations to come," Warren added.

The Editor says...
Ms. Warren wants to "protect our planet" from capitalism, from internal combustion engines, and from the use of hydrocarbons as fuel.  The only reason you are able to read these words is that we live in a capitalist country, and somewhere near you, there are hydrocarbons being used as fuel for an electric generator that was put in place using machines with internal combustion engines.  If you want to sit in the dark and read books about how America used to be free, vote for a lying baby-killing Democrat and watch manufacturing grind to a halt.

ICE Raids Will Force Long-Needed National Immigration Debate.  Sen. Elizabeth Warren of Massachusetts, rising in the polls in her quest for the Democratic presidential nomination, last week unveiled "a sweeping plan to change the country's immigration system" and decriminalize illegal immigration, while giving away $1.5 billion "to fund programs targeting crime, poverty, sexual violence, and trafficking in Central America" — the operative principle being that if you can't end a crisis, normalize it.

Netroots Nation, Headlined By Elizabeth Warren, Demonstrates A Do-It-Yourself Abortion On Stage.  Netroots Nation is a gathering of crazies that happens each year where no idea is too liberal and no position is too insane.  Don't kid yourself though, this is a mainstream Democrat conference that hosts the biggest names in the party each summer.  The media treat it as mainstream as well, glowingly reporting on it in a way they never do regarding CPAC.  This year Elizabeth Warren, who has managed to climb into 2nd place in the 2020 Democrat primary, headlined the event.  Given this is a "progressive" gathering, it's a given that every single person in attendance, from the stage to the people who clean the bathrooms, is rabidly pro-abortion.  Even still, this is shocking.  [Video clip]

Warren Promises to Import at Least 700 Percent More Refugees to U.S..  Democrat presidential primary candidate Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) is promising to import at least 700 percent more foreign refugees into the United States if she becomes president.  In her national immigration plan released this week, Warren broke from her economic patriotism agenda wherein she has committed to holding multinational corporations accountable for outsourcing American jobs overseas and shifting to a permanent nationalist trade policy that puts the needs of American workers first.

Warren: I Would Push Israel to End Occupation of Palestinian Territories.  2020 hopeful Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D., Mass.) told activists at an event Monday that she supported pressuring Israel to, in their words, "end occupation" of Palestinian territories.

Is America Still the Land of the Free?  Anyone who listened to presidential candidate Elizabeth Warren share her horror over states making gains in halting abortion understands that true liberty and individual rights, even states' rights, mean nothing to the Democrats.  As reported by Emma Green on June 26 for The Atlantic, Warren called for a federal law that codifies Roe v Wade, with the certain knowledge that the federal government's treasury would be used to coerce states to fall in line, as has been done regarding so many other federal laws.

Warren Helped Confirm Clueless Obama Bundlers as Ambassadors.  Warren says ambassador nominations should be based on qualification alone, but her votes as a U.S. senator show her belief that "rich buffoons" shouldn't be made ambassadors began only when a Republican moved in to the White House.  Warren was a senator, for example, when Obama nominated Noah Bryson Mamet to be U.S. ambassador to Argentina — Mamet was a political operative with no diplomatic experience who raised millions of dollars for Obama's presidential campaigns.  It was revealed during Mamet's confirmation hearing that he had never been to Argentina.

Harvard Must Set the Record Straight on Elizabeth Warren.  Elizabeth Warren is beginning to solidify herself as a top-tier candidate in the Democrat primary.  She has been forced to backtrack on her decades-long claims of being a woman of color, but Harvard still has not done the same.  Why has Harvard not set the record straight?  In 1993, Harvard Law School offered Warren a highly coveted tenured professor job.  The record is clear as to how she obtained the offer — Harvard had been the subject of a discrimination lawsuit at the time regarding its hiring practices, and the school was openly trying to hire women and people of color at its law school.

Grim Lizzie.  The grimmest candidate of all may be Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren, who dominated Wednesday's debate stage.  Ms. Warren is running on her own unique brand of anticorporate populism, one that attacks "a small group that holds far too much power."  Every problem she sees in America — climate change, guns, student-loan debt, health-care prices, legislative gridlock — is a product of "systemic" corruption. [...] Her campaign has remained singularly focused on the politics of envy, in a bet that this is the Democratic path to those "forgotten" voters.  That pitch has had the benefit of distinguishing her ideas rhetorically from Sen. Bernie Sanders's socialist approach.  And her growing stack of detailed proposals — from shareholder rules to housing benefits to a wealth tax — has earned her the admiration of the liberal intellectual elite.  Columnists and TV hosts are paying her gushy attention, which has helped propel her recent (modest) rise in the polls.

Everything Elizabeth Warren Said During Debate Night Economy Question Was a Lie.  Wednesday evening [6/26/2019] saw the very first Democrat debate of the 2020 presidential election.  It was a major pander-fest, but Elizabeth Warren probably delivered the biggest pack of lies of the night when she was asked about the economy.  Warren has spent her political career advocating political and economic warfare against our economy, but when a question about the economy was put to her, her "answer" was filled with straight up lies.

Elizabeth Warren Just Promised to Abolish 150 Million Americans' Health Insurance.  Sen. Elizabeth Warren promised to cancel everyone's private health insurance coverage during Wednesday night's Democrat debate.  This early in the campaign season, and I mean way early, months and months and months away from the first votes being taken, the only real benefit of Wednesday night's debate was how it nailed Warren down as a power-hungry socialist who will take away everyone's private health insurance.

Elizabeth Warren embraced by debate moderators.  NBC and MSNBC embraced Sen. Elizabeth Warren of Massachusetts in the first debate of Democratic presidential candidates Wednesday night, treating her like the star of the show.  The debate led off with Warren, who had a huge popularity advantage from the start.  Warren — who Trump dubbed "Pocahontas" because of her phony claim of Native American heritage — was the only Democrat on stage who had mustered double digits in recent polling.  Moderators let her dominate the early part of the debate, when most people were likely watching.

Liz Warren sees your slavery reparations, and raises you gay reparations!  It's socialist Democrat Christmas, with every presidential candidate acting like Santy Claus but instead of giving toys, they're giving out taxpayer funded cashola!  On today's edition of commie Christmas, Liz Warren is going to one up you on slavery reparations, and send every gay person a sweet sweet commie gift!!

The Democratic Comedy Of Errors Is About To Get Even More Interesting.  The nation was treated to Elizabeth Warren coming to the, hard to believe, revelation that when you've spent your entire professional life falsifying your racial heritage (for no gain, I'm sure), video-streaming the proof of your falsity is a bit of an error.  But no worries.  She quickly bounced back with her announcement video, which was, of course, interrupted by her need to get a beer.  Maybe if she wanted to seem authentic, she might have had the beer out ahead of time?  And looked like she had had at least one beer previously in her life.  And then, of all things, feigning surprise that your own husband, is in your own house, while you are announcing your candidacy for the highest office in the world.

'Gay reparations'? Elizabeth Warren's list of comprehensive 'plans' just got MUCH longer (and more expensive).  There's been a lot of discussion lately on the subject of reparations either as compensation for slavery in America's past or payback for overall inequality and climate change, but Elizabeth Warren has expanded that to another group of people as it pertains to taxes.  The lib media like to say Warren's got a "plan for everything," and this is no different: [...]

Elizabeth Warren has lots of ideas.  Bad ideas.  Warren's big idea is the opposite of President Bill Clinton's.  In 1996, Clinton said "the era of big government is over."  Warren thinks it is just beginning.  She wants to build 3 million new housing units and reduce rents by 10 percent.  She wants to fight climate change with a Green Apollo Program, Green Industrial Mobilization and a Green Marshall Plan.  She wants to end the opioid crisis.  She wants to cancel student-loan debt and make public universities tuition-free.  She wants to provide universal child care and universal health care.  It all sounds great — who wouldn't want a bunch of free stuff? — but there's a reason it hasn't been done already:  The price tag would be astronomical.  Based mainly on her own estimates, I added up the cost of Warren's commitments so far.  The most expensive slice is the Medicare-for-all plan written by Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) and endorsed by Warren; independent analysts peg the cost at up to $32 trillion over 10 years.

The rise of Elizabeth Warren spells bad news for the Democratic Party.  Senator Elizabeth Warren has surged in the polls, achieving double digit numbers for the first time since officially announcing her bid. [...] Simply put, this recent momentum from Warren spells bad news for the Democratic Party.  The lawmaker from Massachusetts has centered her run around liberal big government policies that once only appealed to the left most fringes of the party.  To be sure, her jump in the polls is indicative of how far left the party has moved and suggests that the party will nominate a radical candidate who is unpalatable to independents and moderates, two groups essential to beating Donald Trump in the general election.

The Many Similarities between Elizabeth Warren and Hillary Clinton.  Elizabeth Warren is 69; Hillary Clinton turned 69 right before Election Day 2016. Both lawyers, both served in the Obama administration, both elected to the Senate in a big Northeastern state.  Both women were trailblazers in high-powered legal circles; one attended an Ivy league law school, one taught in an Ivy league law school.  Clinton took a lot of grief about implausible claims of being "dead broke" when she left the White House or her Tuzla Dash; Warren gets a lot of grief about her implausible claims of Native American heritage.  Hillary Clinton faced accusations that her career's rapid ascent involved insider deals and dishonesty; Warren faces accusations that her career's rapid ascent involved dishonesty about minority status and institutions eager to tout that unsupported claim.  For women who have risen to the top of national politics, they've faced criticism for being tone-deaf about how they've handled sensitive issues.

DNC Club Releases Debate Line-Up, Elizabeth Warren Positioned Over Sanders.  It's important to remember President Obama's ideological ally, former DOJ Civil Rights Division head Tom Perez, is the current Chairman of the DNC. [...] Despite the nonsense that might be spun by NBC, the selection was not random draw (they never are) by the club.  The DNC selected the candidates for each night and coordinated with NBC.  Interestingly, Elizabeth Warren is the biggest winner and Bernie Sanders is the biggest loser.  That's a tell.  The DNC is shaping the perspectives of the college crowd.  By positioning Elizabeth Warren on the first night (highest rating night); and positioning her with little intellectual or policy challenge; it appears the Perez DNC activist wing wants Warren over Sanders.

The Editor says...
You can still vote in the primary election if you want to, but the DNC has already selected the nominee.

Democrats:  The 'Post-Truth' Party.  [Scroll down]  Post-truth thinking is why the perpetually pale-faced Elizabeth Warren for decades falsely claimed she was of American Indian descent.  Post-truth thinking is also why she got away with it for decades.  Most anyone grounded in the truth would've seen through Fauxcahontas's fraud and would've called her on it.  This says much about the post-truth worldview that dominates the academic and media institutions who've enabled Warren's career.

Fauxcahontas Makes Heap Big Surge in Presidential Race.  If you hadn't already picked up on it, the biggest surge in the Democrat nominating race over the past couple of months has not come from Mayor Pete Buttigieg, who has settled into polling consistently in the 7-8% support range.  While that's fairly respectable, we might have expected a little better performance from a guy who has received tens of millions of dollars in free, fawning air time from our fake news media since March.  No, the biggest surge has come from exactly the source we should have all anticipated, the life-long human fraud who has gotten everything she has achieved in life by lying.  This is a woman who doesn't just lie about economics, not just about the law, not just about public policy; oh, no, that's not nearly enough.  Elizabeth Warren is a woman who has spent her entire adult life disgracefully lying about who she even is as a person, pretending to be of American Indian descent in order to move ahead in line for plum jobs, to obtain licenses to practice law, and even to get elected to the United States Senate.

The media's shameful PR campaign for Elizabeth Warren.  In recent weeks, Elizabeth Warren has emerged as the mainstream media's favorite candidate — for now, at least.  Warren's polling has largely been stagnant over the course of the race for the Democratic nomination, but you wouldn't know it from the fawning coverage — coverage that just so happens to consistently echo the Warren campaign's exact talking points.  The New York Times asks 'Elizabeth Warren is running an ideas-first campaign.  Will it work?'  The Washington Post writes, 'Warren's nonstop ideas reshape the Democratic presidential race — and give her new momentum.'  Apparently, the 'self-admitted policy wonk who has put her meaty policy prescriptions front and center in the campaign' is also approaching 'a breakout with black voters,' and 'she is very good on the stump.'  Should the mainstream press be quite so adoring of a political candidate?  What's concerning is that these articles — written by supposedly objective journalists — are stuffed to the brim with barely concealed Warren campaign talking points.

We Won't Get Fooled Again, Senator Warren!  [Scroll down]  Is Elizabeth Warren about to shock everyone by running as Donald Trump in a purple pantsuit?  Try as she might, she cannot defy her true nature.  What is Warren's true nature?  It's an insatiable lust for centralized state power.  Sure, Warren can claim that she cares for workers — and she may very well believe she represents their interests — but there is little in Warren's background that lends itself to economic nationalism.  In fact, there is much to suggest that her lofty rhetoric — as welcome as it is compared to the Democratic Party's otherwise loony political discourse — is a mere smokescreen for a blatant power grab.

Dems Revise History Regarding the 19th Amendment.  If you know the history of the 19th Amendment, you will notice a peculiar omission from the statements issued by various Democrats celebrating the 100th anniversary of its passage by Congress.  Elizabeth Warren, for example, tweeted:  "People always say that big change is impossible.  That's what they told the suffragettes — but they got organized, persisted, & 100 years ago today, the Senate passed the 19th Amendment to give women the right to vote."  What Warren conveniently forgets is that the people who said it was "impossible" were Democrats.  Her party blocked passage of the amendment from 1878, when it was introduced by the Republicans, until the latter won such huge majorities in the 1918 midterms that the Democrats were no longer able to deny women justice.

Elizabeth Warren Claims Climate Change Is A 'Bigger Threat Than World War II' On Eve Of D-Day Anniversary.  Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) made her first campaign stop in Michigan on Tuesday, and launched a shocking $2 trillion "infrastructure investment" plan designed to address the burgeoning problem of climate change, which Warren claims is a bigger threat to the American way of life than the enemies the Allied Forces faced in World War II. [...] But if she believes "climate change" must be approached with a "total war" mentality, Warren's plan doesn't seem to address the issue with all that much urgency.  Instead of, say, playing hardball with the globe's major polluters like China, India, and industrialized southeast Asia, Warren's $1.7 trillion "climate plan" is mostly subsidies for alternative energy companies — subsidies she claims will be "paid for" by cutting tax breaks for corporations like Amazon (even though Amazon claims to be a national leader in sustainable business practices).

Warren unveils $2 trillion "Green Manufacturing Plan".  2020 candidate Sen. Elizabeth Warren released her "Green Manufacturing Plan" Tuesday [6/4/2019], a $2 trillion proposal to develop the technology needed to power the Green New Deal over the next decade.  Warren is seeking to strike a progressive tone that focuses less on regulations and explicit goals and more on manufacturing and jobs than some other Democratic candidates as divisions emerge between the party and labor unions over the Green New Deal.

Elizabeth Warren's 'Economic Patriotism' Plan Cribs Heavily From Trump.  Elizabeth Warren describes her "Plan for Economic Patriotism," which she released on Tuesday [6/4/2019], as a bold departure from the past.  "It's time to reject the excuses we've heard for decades about why we can't do more to help American workers," she says in the document.  Warren and her team appear to have been asleep for the past two years.  How else to explain the fact that her plan completely ignores the substantial progress on jobs, wages and economic growth under President Trump, much less the reason behind these gains.

Why Are America's Socialists — and Democrats and Journalists — Always So Angry?  [Scroll down]  Sen. Elizabeth Warren carries anger around with her like a purse — it's always there within easy reach.  She's "mad as hell at the influence of money in Washington, D.C.," and is equally venomous toward Wall Street.  Other things that make her furious:  Congress' reluctance to "refinance student loan interest rates" (whatever they are); "billions of dollars" in private sector profits; billionaires in general; the minimum wage.

Excerpt from Daily Caller Podcast.  [Scroll down]  Elizabeth Warren likely thought her history of lying about being a Native American was behind her.  Not so much, it seems, anymore.  On Friday, appearing on a popular morning radio show, her past reemerged when she was asked about it when she seemed least prepared.  She desperately pandered to the largely black audience, but it didn't work.  Ultimately, one of the hosts called her "the original Rachel Dolezal," which is both hilarious and true.

Elizabeth Warren campaign's in trouble.  Elizabeth Warren, the fake Indian, has an annoying yet revealing verbal tic — whenever she's about to tell a lie, she prefaces her whopper with the word "So."  I think it's safe to say Lieawatha had at best a so-so performance Friday morning on The Breakfast Club, a syndicated black radio show out of New York.  The Breakfast Club is one of those media outlets where Democrat candidates go to grovel.  In 2016, Hillary Clinton used the popular program to spin her own preposterously tall tale about carrying a bottle of "hot sauce" in her purse.  Friday [5/31/2019], the fake Indian figured she'd be getting the same kind of kid-gloves treatment.  But the hosts, particularly Charlamagne tha God, who as a youth had a couple of arrests as a small-time cocaine dealer in South Carolina, was having none of it.

Elizabeth Warren's dog [is] more popular than she is.  Sen. Elizabeth Warren is being outshined in the 2020 race by her dog.  While she has settled into third place with about 7% support among Democrats planning to vote in next year's primaries and caucuses, pup Bailey is first in a survey of names of potential presidential pets.

Elizabeth Warren's white lies [are] catching up to her.  Today's lesson in political double standards:  bankruptcies.  When Donald Trump is involved in any brushes with bankruptcy, it just proves what a con man he is, a deadbeat and a scam artist, using his white privilege and toxic masculinity to rip off victims of the evil capitalist system.  But now that it turns out the fake Indian, Sen. Elizabeth Warren, may have made millions as a lawyer in assorted corporate, Trump-like bankruptcies, somehow it's become a wonderful, positive experience.  "Bankruptcy law is about coming up with the fairest outcome possible in a difficult system," the fake Indian's campaign gushed Wednesday [5/22/2019], "and trying to help individuals and businesses get a fresh start."  Translation:  there are two kinds of bankruptcies, Republican bankruptcies (bad), and Democrat bankruptcies (good).

While teaching, Warren worked on about 60 legal matters, far more than she'd previously disclosed.  Sen. Elizabeth Warren worked on about 60 legal matters during her prior career as a law professor, advising people with asbestos disease, a corporation facing possible liability over ruptured breast implants and the former directors of Getty Oil as they monitored the Texaco bankruptcy in 1987.  Warren's presidential campaign released a list of 56 cases on the Massachusetts Democrat's website late Wednesday [5/22/2019], a far higher number than she had previously disclosed.  The Washington Post had requested a detailed accounting of her outside work and has separately identified several additional cases that appeared to involve Warren.

The Democrat Puff Piece Challenge.  [Scroll down]  Of course we should close the Elizabeth Warren loop.  She has sallied forth despite a 1/1024 chance of getting elected, and attempted to remake her image in an Ocasio-Cortez-style home video, shot in her kitchen in January.  She reached for the most tired of relatable tropes when she looked into the lens and said, "I'm gonna get me a beer."  It has been a long road for Warren already, thanks to a debacle of her own making.  One wonders how long she sticks it out.

Ocasio-Cortez Mocks Reporter's Salary, Rips Media Report on Warren's Lucrative Legal Career.  Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D., N.Y.) ripped a media report Thursday [5/23/2019] on the past lucrative legal career of Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D., Mass.) and mocked a reporter's salary in the process.  Ocasio-Cortez went to bat for Warren after the 2020 presidential candidate posted a list of 56 cases on her campaign website that she worked on during her career as a law professor.  The Washington Post reported Warren made up to $675 an hour while consulting for committees representing both claimants and creditors in asbestos-related bankruptcy cases.  She also worked for several corporate clients.

Warren Calls for Federal Government Intervention to Keep Abortion Legal.  Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) is calling for Congress to create and pass legislation that would make access to abortion mandatory across the United States.  Like many of her Democrat colleagues running for the 2020 presidential nomination, Warren is reacting to Alabama banning abortion and several other states poised to follow suit, most recently Missouri.

Warren's anti-Fox sneer the kiss of campaign death.  Sen. Elizabeth Warren, who's running for president of the United States, turned up her nose and turned down a Fox News town hall, calling out the cable giant as a "hate-for-profit" racket.  This is a big political misstep.  Warren is seeking a seat that makes her the lead executive, the top dog, the big kahuna — the spokesperson — for the entire country.  Like it or not, Fox News has a voice in this country.

Elizabeth Warren Melts Down over Fox News Town Hall Invite.  Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) freaked out at Fox News as a "hate-for-profit racket" after the cable news outlet invited her to participate in a town hall event.  As it has with other Democrats (Bernie Sanders, Amy Klobuchar) running for the 2020 presidential nomination, Fox invited Warren to participate in a prime time town hall.

Elizabeth Warren's vision for 'executives' includes 'handcuffs and perp walks'.  Sen. Elizabeth Warren decided to give her sagging presidential campaign a shot in the arm by revealing her new plan for rich executives during a campaign stop.  The Massachusetts Democrat and 2020 contender continued her finger-pointing at evil corporations and executives during a stop in Kermit, W. Va. on Saturday, threatening "handcuffs and perp walks" for the guilty.

A Tribe of Her Own.  Warren proposed student loan forgiveness for anyone up to $50,000 in student debt.  On a sliding scale for high earners, the proposal applies to anyone making under $250,000 a year.  As it stands, Warren's plan can work with loans taken out for any type of degree — even if you only took out a few extra loans to get your MBA at Yale. [...] In fact, 48 percent of all student debt is currently carried by households with degrees that provide entry into managerial lines of work.  This is why some are calling her proposal "upper-class welfare."

Candidates See Land of the Free or of the Freeloader?  Elizabeth Warren proposes free college tuition and debt forgiveness for student loans.  "The entire cost of my broad debt cancellation plan and universal free college is more than covered by my Ultra-Millionaire Tax," Warren explains.  "For decades, we've allowed the wealthy to pay less while burying tens of millions of working Americans in education debt.  It's time to make different choices."  Numerous candidates, including Warren, Kirsten Gillibrand, Kamala Harris, and Cory Booker, support Bernie Sanders's Medicare for All proposal, which commits the federal government to providing healthcare to everyone as it outlaws the insurers who currently provide such coverage to most.

Candidates See Land of the Free or of the Freeloader?  Whoever said that there's no such thing as a free lunch never said it to the various presidential hopefuls aiming to unseat the current occupant of the Oval Office.  And whoever says it now risks issuing a warning misunderstood as a challenge.  Elizabeth Warren proposes free college tuition and debt forgiveness for student loans.  "The entire cost of my broad debt cancellation plan and universal free college is more than covered by my Ultra-Millionaire Tax," Warren explains.  "For decades, we've allowed the wealthy to pay less while burying tens of millions of working Americans in education debt.  It's time to make different choices."

The Free-Stuff Primary:  What Democrats' Promises Will Cost.  Child care is expensive, even more expensive than college tuition in some cases.  Families in Massachusetts, the least affordable state for such care, according to one analysis, can expect to pay as much as $34,381 to enroll both an infant and toddler in day care.  Sen. Elizabeth Warren plans on making it free for millions of people.  The Massachusetts Democrat is the first 2020 contender to endorse universal child care.  She envisions subsidized nurseries in every community, "a network of child care options that would be available to every family."  It wouldn't be a nanny state, per se.  Warren calls for the government to partner with existing services provided by cities, schools, nonprofits, tribes, and faith-based groups.

The Editor says...
Notice that Senator Warren wants the government to inter-operate (partner is not a verb) with "faith-based groups."  And yet if the specific faith of the "faith-based group" is not one of her favorites, she will be the first to object to such an arrangement, based on the "separation of church and state."  Strictly speaking, the Democratic Party is a faith-based group:  Democrats have a lot of faith in the ability of big government to solve everybody's problems.  Democrats have a lot of faith in unproven theories about global warming and impending doom.  Democrats want to throw open the international borders and let everyone in the world immigrate to the U.S. with no questions asked, and that requires a great deal of misplaced faith in one's fellow man, combined with a profound ignorance of human nature.

Elizabeth Warren unveils new plan to make childbirth safer for African American women.  Elizabeth Warren has detailed a plan to incentivise hospitals to make childbirth safer for African American women.  The candidate, who has unveiled a number of comprehensive platforms for her possible presidency, is being met with praise for the proposed policy, which she revealed at the She the People conference in Texas.  "Black moms in our country are dying from childbirth-related causes 3-4 times more often than white moms," Warren said in a tweet accompanying video of her talk on the policy.  "Any meaningful solution to our maternal mortality crisis must address structural racism as a root cause of this problem.

The Editor says...
Yes, but if the same mother wants to abort her child, I'm sure Ms. Warren is in favor of that, too.

Elizabeth Warren's College Plan Is a Dance with Elves.  Senator Warren proposes to pay off Americans' student loans in a tiered fashion:  Up to $50,000 in bailouts for those earning up to $100,000 a year, gradually phased out to $0.00 for those earning $250,000 a year or more.  That would eliminate all student debt for about 75 percent of borrowers and provide some reduction for all but 5 percent of borrowers.  Lest this be taken as a warrant to go out and borrow big on the chance that there will be another round of debt forgiveness in the future, Senator Warren also proposes to make college free for all students, not only eliminating tuition costs but also radically expanding federal higher-education spending to cover books, student housing and living expenses, and child care — a parallel welfare state for undergraduates.

Give Elizabeth Warren a BS Degree in Vote Buying For Her 'Free' College Plan.  One in every six adult Americans is saddled with college debt.  It's bigger than credit card debt or auto loans.  Magically erasing student debt is her ploy to win over college students, adults in their twenties and thirties struggling with their loans, and millions of parents left holding the bag.  Warren's giveaway will cost taxpayers $640 billion.  It's a poke in the eye of every assembly line worker, waitress, truck driver and other taxpayer who never got to college because they went to work instead of going into debt.  Why should they now have to pay someone else's college loans?

The Editor says...
Fairness is not the goal.  She's apparently trying to buy votes.

Sen. Elizabeth Warren promises to roll back Trump energy policies on 1st day in office.  Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren thrust herself into the climate change debate this week, promising that if elected president, she'd sign an executive order on her first day in office to end drilling offshore and on public lands, a move that would reverse President Donald Trump's most notable energy policies and halt the soaring rate of drilling permits granted on federal lands.  The proposal, her ninth since announcing her run for office, would also require 10% of all U.S. electricity generation to come from renewable resources offshore or on public lands.

Elizabeth Warren proposes canceling billions in student loan debt.  U.S. Senator Elizabeth Warren, who is seeking the Democratic nomination for the 2020 presidential election, wants to cancel billions of dollars in student loan debt and make college cheaper for students going forward.

Elizabeth Warren's plan to cancel student loan debt would be a slap in the face to all those who struggled to pay off their loans.  In the escalating battle of 2020 Democratic presidential candidates to see who can offer the most free stuff, Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., has taken the extraordinary step of calling for having the government forgive student loan debt.  This pander will not only be incredibly costly, but it will be a slap in the face to those who have already struggled to pay off their student loans without government assistance.

Elizabeth Warren becomes first 2020 candidate to call for Trump's impeachment.  Elizabeth Warren on Friday became the most senior Democrat, and the first 2020 presidential candidate, to call for the start of impeachment proceedings against Donald Trump following the release of the special counsel's report on Russian interference in the 2016 US election and the Trump campaign.

Ouch: New Poll Shows Elizabeth Warren Running a Distant Third... In Massachusetts.  Let's start with the requisite caveats that Democratic presidential primary is a marathon, not a sprint — and that the field is still taking shape.  We are also more than two months away from the first debates of the cycle (one set is scheduled for late June, then another in late July), and roughly ten full months away from the Iowa caucuses.  Making any definitive declarations about how things will look by early next year is a fool's errand.  But it may not be too foolish or crazy to start asking the following question:  Will Elizabeth Warren still be in the race by the time people actually start voting?

Elizabeth Warren:  If a Democrat loses, the election is illegitimate.  Democrats are working quietly to bring into the mainstream the narrative that GOP victories are by default illegitimate, thereby weakening and undermining duly elected Republican officials.  It is dangerous stuff — just as dangerous as when President Trump questioned the legitimacy of the 2016 election, which Democrats and the media rightly condemned as a threat to a healthy, functioning republic.  But that was when Democrats thought their hold on the White House was a sure thing.  It is funny how the shoe ends up on the other foot.

Can't Any Democrat Here Play This Game?  Beto is as lily-white as Elizabeth Warren, whose finance director is leaving because of a disagreement over money.  The director would like to raise some.  Warren's not so sure.  She pledged not to accept donations from millionaires and billionaires, holding out for small-dollar contributions from folks like you and me.  The problem:  Folks like you and me don't want anything to do with Warren.

Elizabeth Warren's increasingly dramatic proposals reflect a campaign struggling to stay relevant.  Elizabeth Warren's campaign is stuck in neutral at best, in reverse at worst.  She just isn't getting any momentum despite assembling a high-powered campaign team before anyone else, and announcing before any other major candidates.  The DNA rollout was an unmitigated disaster, and compounded Warren's original sin, her false claim to be Native American.  In an attempt to reboot, Warren held a bizarre New Year's Eve beer-drinking livestream campaign launch, mimicking Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez' cooking livestreams.  Whatever else she is, Elizabeth Warren is not the cool kid, and it flopped.

Amateur Hour in the Democrat Primaries.  Senator Elizabeth Warren of Massachusetts (born and reared in Oklahoma) entered the presidential race and released her tax records, challenging President Trump to do likewise.  She supports "universal childcare, relief for student loan debt, universal health care by way of 'Medicare for All,' free public college, and a wealth tax...."  Warren has plans to abolish the Electoral College, abolish ICE, pack the Supreme Court, and she supports reparations.  The senator lied about being an American Indian to gain a position at Harvard.  I wonder if Warren will denounce tenure as she did her Indian heritage.  Warren no longer claims Native American heritage although she is often called, Pocahontas by a very famous person.

Driving on a flat tire:
Elizabeth Warren Loses Finance Director as She Struggles in Early Fund-raising.  On a Sunday afternoon earlier this month, Senator Elizabeth Warren began a swing through the South by proclaiming that she was running "a different type of campaign" — one that did not include high-dollar fund-raisers but was entirely reliant on grass-roots contributions.  "If you think that's a good idea, go to ElizabethWarren.com," she told about 500 people at a town hall-style event in Memphis, adding:  "Pitch in five bucks, do whatever you can."

Why are 2020 Democrats so weird?  Sen. Elizabeth Warren's (Mass.) insistence on releasing the results of a DNA test in the hope of vindicating her past claims of Native American heritage was one of the most bizarre events in recent political history.

A Brief Survey of 2020's Psychotic Democratic Roster.  Elizabeth Warren [...] is perhaps the most self-unaware candidate of the bunch.  After faking her way onto the Harvard faculty by claiming to be American Indian, when asked if she had sympathy for the parents who bought their way into chi-chi colleges, she replied, "Zero."  When asked even now about her ancestry, she insists she "learned her family history from her family."  And while quite wealthy herself, she intends, if elected, to tax wealthy Americans into extinction.  She wrongly thinks that by stealing what others have earned, she can fund her dream of a socialist state.

Sen. Warren Pitches More Than $100 Trillion in New Spending During Brief CNN Townhall.  Senator Warren believes she knows the way into Americans' hearts:  Lots of government spending.  In her CNN townhall Monday night [3/18/2019], Sen. Warren responded to almost every question with a proposed new government program.  Over the course of the 80 minute forum, Sen. Warren endorsed Medicare-for-All, slavery reparations, universal childcare, universal pre-K, "universal pre-pre-K," the creation of 3 million new federal housing units, increasing infrastructure spending several times, forgiveness of student loan debt, and the Green New Deal.  Add it all up, and it's more than $100 trillion.

Warren calls for 'full-blown conversation about reparations'.  Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) gave her most detailed answer to date on the question of reparations for black Americans as a means of addressing centuries of slavery and legal discrimination.  In a CNN town hall on Monday night in Jackson, Miss., Warren became the first 2020 presidential candidate serving in the Senate to endorse a House bill that would create a commission to study reparation proposals.

Elizabeth Warren wants to abolish the Electoral College.  Presidential hopeful Elizabeth Warren on Monday night [3/18/2019] called for abolishing the Electoral College.  The Massachusetts Democrat said during a town hall on CNN that she would back a plan to scrap the process and move the country to a national popular vote.  "My view is that every vote matters," Warren said to applause.  "And the way we can make that happen is that we can have national voting and that means get rid of the Electoral College — and every vote counts."  The electoral process, she said, effectively disenfranchises voters in states dominated by one party.

The Editor says...
Hmmm.  "States dominated by one party."  Like California?

Elizabeth Warren says it's time for Mississippi to adopt a new state flag.  Democratic Sen. Elizabeth Warren of Massachusetts said she believes it is time for Mississippi to disavow its Confederate icons — namely on its state flag.  "I would support removing Confederate celebrations from federal lands and putting them in museums where they belong," Warren said at a CNN townhall in Jackson, Mississippi, on Monday evening [3/18/2019].  Asked if she believes the state should adopt a new flag, Warren had a short answer.  "Yes," she said to an applauding crowd.

The Editor says...
How is the Mississippi state flag any of her concern?

Whatta Bunch of Phony Baloneys.  Beto is the latest of a never-ending line-up of Democrat Impostors, Dolezal phonies to the core.  In some cases, their mendacity is legend, beginning with Princess Speaking Bull, Elizabeth Warren, fully 1/1,024th Native American — presumably less Indian than George Armstrong Custer.  As she worked her way up the totem pole, she listed herself as "American Indian" with a state bar.  Got herself into Ivy League academia as a member of a historically oppressed minority without any reservations.  Whether drinking beer to keep a wig warm or skinning hides, her blood test proved President Trump's conundrum:  "Now that her blood test proves she never was an Indian, how can I keep calling her 'Pocahontas'?"  Indian?  Baloney!

Elizabeth Warren:  I'm not a socialist except when I act like one.  Elizabeth Warren made the obligatory appearance for Democratic presidential candidates at SXSW and insisted that she was no socialist like Bernie Sanders or even a democratic socialist.  She claimed she believed in markets, but with limits. [...] "Reversing mergers" and talk of "curbing the power" of tech companies doesn't sound much like supporting the market to me.  Amazon, Facebook, and other tech companies have gotten large because they give customers what they want.  We don't have to like what they do or what they've become.  But they've become wildly successful by following the rules of the free market.

Elizabeth Warren reveals dream running mate.  If Sen. Elizabeth Warren could choose anyone living or dead to be her running mate, it would be former Republican president Theodore Roosevelt, she claims.  She said the two-term Republican would be her ideal vice presidential pick.  The Massachusetts Democrat told MSNBC that the two-term Republican president was a brave figure who would fit well with her message of breaking up big monopolies.  "He took on the trusts.  And he didn't care how many people were going to be mad about it.  And he did it — this is what's amazing — for the right reasons.  It wasn't just that they were big.  It wasn't just that they were dominating an economy.  It wasn't just that they were putting farmers out of business and competitors out of business and small companies out of business," Warren said.

Warren Revises Position on Reparations, Calls for 'Conversations'.  Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D., Mass.) on Friday [3/8/2019] called for dialogue about reparations for black Americans impacted by slavery, marking an apparent shift from her previously stated support for the payments.  "So, what I have said and will say again is I think it's time for us to have the conversation," Warren said when asked by CNN reporter MJ Lee about reparations, NTK Network reports.  "We need to address the fact that in this country, we built great fortunes and wealth on the backs of slaves and we need to address that head-on, we need to have that national conversation."

Elizabeth Warren Proposes Breaking Up Amazon, Facebook, Google.  Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) announced Friday [3/8/2019] that she will propose to break up some of America's largest tech companies, which includes Facebook, Google, and Amazon, as a means to separate herself from the large swathe 2020 presidential Democrat primary candidates.  Warren will hold a presidential campaign rally in Long Island City, New York, which was supposed to be the hub of a major new Amazon headquarters, and called for the appointment of regulators who would "unwind tech mergers that illegally undermine competition."

Elizabeth Warren admits she's using her dog to 'humanize' herself.  Democrat Senator Elizabeth Warren is taking pandering to a whole 'nother level.  The 2020 presidential candidate is hoping that being photographed with her dog will make voters forget that she lied about being a Native American.  And now, Warren and the liberal media are being called out for shamelessly using her golden retriever to promote the "Elizabeth-Warren-is-likable" narrative.

Pigs on Two Legs Turn on Each Other.  [Scroll down]  The rosy-cheeked and blond Senator Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) learned that.  At least she early on grasped the nature of the revolution under way when she fabricated a Native-American identity and milked it for career advantage, but then crashed and burned with desperate pleas about high-cheekbones, plagiarized native cooking recipes, and suicidal DNA tests that unfortunately showed she was less an Indian than most of her 330 million fellow Americans.  Under the new revolutionary rules, wealthy white female Warren is not all that much more intersectional than the harder left socialist Bernie Sanders.

Elizabeth Warren's $675-an-hour corporate lawyer past looms over progressive 2020 bid.  The Cajun Electric Power Cooperative filed for bankruptcy in the 1990s, creating a juicy target for companies eager to snatch up its operations, including the coal-burning "Big Cajun" plant with its massive carbon footprint near Baton Rouge, Louisiana.  One eager suitor was Southwestern Electric Power Co., which went to court trying to halt its sale to a competitor.  Among the white-shoe lawyers representing Southwestern Power was then-Harvard Law School professor Elizabeth Warren.  To hear Ms. Warren explain it years later, she was a white knight swooping in to save Cajun and protect local Louisiana jobs.

Does Elizabeth Warren see the bad news on the horizon?  Surrounded by sycophantic lefties who longingly dream of following her into a different kind of America, where does she look for a dose of reality?  Who will be brutally honest with her?  Watching her awkwardly mimic Mammy Yokum, swilling a brewski on an Instagram livestream from her Cambridge kitchen to show she's in touch with everyone, just showed how out of touch she really is.  Trying in vain to be all things to all people is futile and exhausting.

Elizabeth Warren says reparations for Native Americans should be 'part of the conversation'.  2020 presidential hopeful Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., expanded on an already-radical proposal on Friday, telling reporters that Native Americans should be "part of the conversation" on reparations for African-Americans — a move that threatens to bring back her own history with Native Americans.  Taking questions from reporters ahead of a Democratic Party fundraiser in Manchester, N.H., Warren, she said that America has an "ugly history of racism" and outlined her ways to tackle it — including the possibility of reparations.

Sen. Elizabeth Warren: 'Child Care Should be a Fundamental Right.  Period'.  Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D.-Mass.) sent out a Tweet on Saturday [2/23/2019] arguing that child care should be a "fundamental right" and promoting her plan to use federal funds to pay for a "universal child care plan."  "Child care should be a fundamental right.  Period," said Warren.  "Here's how my #UniversalChildCare plan would make that a reality."

Polls don't look good for Elizabeth Warren.  Another presidential poll, another dose of bad news for Elizabeth Warren.  Our senior senator and declared presidential candidate found herself trailing two other well-known but undeclared Democrats — as well as an upstart U.S. senator from California — in a UMass poll of likely New Hampshire Democratic primary voters.  Former Vice President Joe Biden led the list of declared and potential candidates in New Hampshire at 28 percent, followed by Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders (20 percent) and Sen. Kamala Harris (14).  Sanders has since announced his intention to again run for president, but had not at the time of this Feb. 7-15 survey.  All Warren could muster, despite officially announcing her candidacy in Lawrence — in the shadow of the Granite State — was a disappointing 9 percent.  No one else registered more than 6 percent.

Harris, Warren:  Yes, we support reparations for black Americans.  I feel like this will be a good, productive conversation for the country to have next summer amid the toxic atmosphere of a presidential election, with Trump leading the anti side of the argument.  Maybe it'll help crack Elizabeth Warren crack five percent in the South Carolina primary, though.  That's what's important.

Warren set to release $70B-per-year plan for universal child care, will tap wealth tax.  The broad strokes of the plan — which would cover 12 million children — would mean no family would have to spend more than seven percent of its total household income, according to The Huffington Post, which first reported on the announcement.  The report said the number is based off a Department of Health and Human Services figure on what qualifies as affordable child care.  The plan is still being worked on, but sources told the news outlet that they expect it to cost about $700 billion in new funding over 10 years, or four times what the federal government pays on these programs.

Warren: Officials Have 'Constitutional' Duty 'to Invoke 25th Amendment' if Trump Can't Fulfill Job.  At a news conference after a rally in Las Vegas, Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) told KLAS's 8 News NOW that Trump administration officials "have a constitutional responsibility to invoke the 25th Amendment," if they think it is needed.

Elizabeth Warren heckled at Georgia campaign stop: 'Why did you lie?'.  Democratic presidential candidate Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., was once again reminded that she exaggerated her Native American ancestry and was heckled during a campaign stop in Georgia.  While introducing herself to a crowd of about 1,000 supporters in a Lawrenceville high school, a man shouted "Why did you lie?"  Warren replied back "Be easy, be easy," while the crowd chanted her name and clapped.  The man was holding up a campaign sign that read "1/2020" as he was quickly escorted out of the building.

Elizabeth Warren is a fraud — Her lies about being Native American disqualify her from presidency, Senate.  Sen. Elizabeth Warren, who is expected to announce her candidacy for the Democratic Party's presidential nomination Saturday, is a fraud.  For decades she has been living a lie, pretending to be a Native American when she is not.  Because of her long history of lying about her racial background, the Massachusetts Democrat is unfit to occupy the White House and unfit to sit in the Senate.  She should end her presidential candidacy before it begins and resign her Senate seat.

Elizabeth Warren's done pretty well in 'rigged' system.  Now that Warren's run for commander in chief is official, let's take a peek inside her teepee and see what the 1/1024th Native American "chief" is offering.  On Saturday she told the crowd, "Because the man in the White House is not the cause of what's broken, he's just the latest — and most extreme — symptom of what's gone wrong in America.  A product of a rigged system that props up the rich and the powerful and kicks dirt on everyone else."  Perhaps the Cambridge one-percenter can explain:  If the system is "rigged" against the little guy, how could she — the daughter of a janitor — become unequivocally rich and now powerful enough to run for president?  With her net worth estimated to be as high as $10 million, I'd say America's capitalist system worked out quite nicely for her.  Wouldn't you?

Progressives Bearing Gifts.  For all practical purposes, Senator Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) has revealed that she was a knave, not just a dunce.  For years she has insisted that while she may have been informally self-identified (albeit falsely) as a Native American, she never actively did so for official purposes.  Any preference she received was supposedly due to the inferences of institutions and agencies, but not through her own solicitation.  Last week we discovered that was all an abject lie — given that her Texas state bar registration card reemerged, with her own handwritten description of her race as "American Indian" (not even the politically correct "Native American").

Elizabeth Warren Suggests President Trump [is] Going to Prison.  Fake Indian Elizabeth Warren made an appearance in Cedar Rapids, Iowa on Sunday to kick off her 2020 presidential campaign.  Warren immediately attacked the President and suggested that Trump might be in prison by 2020.  "Every day there's a racist tweet, a hateful tweet — something really dark and ugly and what are we as candidates, as activists, as the press gonna do about it?" Warren said.

Really?  People can go to prison for "a hateful tweet?"

Elizabeth Warren:  Yep, I Filled Out A Lot Of Documents Claiming To Be Indian.  In one of its more disturbing acts of collusion that didn't involve covering up an alleged rape, the Washington Post tried to help Elizabeth Warren bury her latest scandal.  It isn't working so well. [...] The registration card makes it clear that this wasn't some sort of coincidence, but that a very white woman had falsely claimed to be a minority during the early stages of her professional career.

This writer is highly sympathetic with Senator Warren, to say the least:
Elizabeth Warren needs to stop the drip-drip-drip of fresh revelations.  Warren grew up believing she was part Cherokee.  But answering the question the way she did was a mistake, even by the standards of 1986.  Warren's never been a member of any tribe.  She's white.  Playing loose with the facts about identity is bad within the current political climate of the Democratic Party, where issues of race have come to the fore.  If Warren can't stop the slow bleed of bad news now, the presidential candidacy she is expected to launch in Lawrence on Saturday is going to go nowhere fast.

Elizabeth Warren Finished Before She Started.  Elizabeth Warren announces her presidential candidacy in Lawrence, Massachusetts, on Saturday.  Trips to New Hampshire and Iowa follow immediately thereafter.  Already, before formally declaring her candidacy, she faces calls to drop out.  The paleface part of Elizabeth Warren once again inflicted indignities upon the Native American part of Elizabeth Warren.  That .098 to 3 percentage of her DNA, seemingly suffering a Wounded Knee every few weeks at the hands of the 97 percent to 99.902 percent of her steeped in the forked-tongue white man's ways, received unflattering coverage as the Washington Post reported this week that Warren called herself an "American Indian" when she filled out a card upon becoming a member of the Texas Bar Association in 1986.

Elizabeth Warren presidential campaign death watch.  Does [Elizabeth] Warren believe she can apologize her way to the White House?  On the basis of her public actions, it would appear so, for she still has scheduled a formal announcement of her presidential campaign on Saturday [2/2/2019] but spent yesterday apologizing.  For her colleagues in the Democratic Party, that is a nightmare.  As readers already know, the Washington Post obtained (from oppo researchers of another Dem running for president, for instance Kamala Harris?) a copy of her 1986 registration card for the Texas Bar in which she appears to have written in her own hand that her "race" is "American Indian."

Warren apologizes for Native American claim, signals there may be other documents out there.  Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., on Wednesday was once again forced to apologize for claiming Native American ancestry on a 1986 registration card for the Texas state bar, and left the door open that there may be more documents out there with a similar claim.  The controversy appears to be difficult for the senator to put behind her.  She had been planning to formally launch her presidential campaign on Saturday.  A reporter on Wednesday [2/6/2019] asked if she would drop out of the race and she responded, "Thank you."

The Timeline of Elizabeth Warren's Native American Controversy.  Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D., Mass.) will announce Saturday [2/9/2019] she's officially running for president with a speech in Lawrence, Massachusetts, but she'll do it after another week of controversy surrounding her longtime claims of Native American ancestry.  The latest blow:  The Washington Post reporting Warren wrote "American Indian" as her race for her State Bar of Texas registration card in 1986.  It marked the first known example of Warren making such a claim in her own handwriting.

Continetti: Warren Calling Herself Native American on Bar Registration Is 'Potentially Fatal' for 2020.  Washington Free Beacon editor in chief Matthew Continetti on Wednesday questioned whether Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D., Mass.) maintains any amount of public trust after new revelations about her claims to Native American identity.  The hosts of "America's Newsroom" on Fox News opened with a discussion of a new Washington Post report finding Warren had claimed to be a Native American on her registration card for the State Bar of Texas in 1986.  Former John Kerry adviser Marie Harf argued this was not the issue that will sink Warren, but Continetti said Warren's credibility is likely damaged permanently.

Elizabeth Warren is a fraud — Her lies about being Native American disqualify her from presidency, Senate.  Sen. Elizabeth Warren, who is expected to announce her candidacy for the Democratic Party's presidential nomination Saturday [2/9/2019], is a fraud.  For decades she has been living a lie, pretending to be a Native American when she is not.  Because of her long history of lying about her racial background, the Massachusetts Democrat is unfit to occupy the White House and unfit to sit in the Senate.  She should end her presidential candidacy before it begins and resign her Senate seat.

After new document is revealed, Warren struggles with questions of identity.  Elizabeth Warren was a law professor at the University of Texas when she filled out a form from the state bar that asked her to list her race.  Her answer, printed in careful block letters:  "American Indian."  Thirty-three years later — and days before the official launch of her presidential run — that newly disclosed document has emerged as a political flash point, forcing Warren to reckon with a question that has been dogging her for years and that she has never put to rest:  why, through much of her life and legal career, she claimed to be Native American despite being white.

RNC asks Texas to punish Sen. Elizabeth Warren for Indian heritage claim.  The Republican National Committee asked the Texas state Bar to take disciplinary action against Sen. Elizabeth Warren after reports that she claimed Native American heritage on her bar card.  Ms. Warren now says she is not a member of any Native American tribe, but The Washington Post reported that when she applied for the bar in 1986 she listed herself as "American Indian."  The RNC says that puts her in violation of the bar's requirement to show good moral character.

Elizabeth Warren's web of lies just totally collapsed.  Elizabeth Warren's whole embarrassingly improbable account of her claims to Native American ancestry has just fallen completely apart.  It's now indisputable that she's been lying all along.  The Washington Post has uncovered her 1986 Texas State Bar registration card, which Warren personally filled out and signed, where she listed her race as "American Indian."  And, she now admits, there may be other such documents out there.

Elizabeth Warren's Last Stand.  Presidential wannabe Elizabeth Warren's obfuscation about her Native American heritage may have finally done her in.  The latest shoe to drop is her 1986 registration card for the Texas bar, in which she claimed her race is "American Indian."

Elizabeth Warren claimed 'American Indian' race on State Bar of Texas registration card.  Sen. Elizabeth Warren claimed to be an "American Indian" when registering for the State Bar of Texas in 1986, the first example of her personally using her dubious accounts to further her career.  The Washington Post reported Tuesday [2/5/2019] that it had acquired, via an open records request, her registration card and a Post reporter tweeted out an image of the card.  The card, written in ink and signed personally by Ms. Warren, identifies her as an "American Indian."

'Wealth tax' advocate Elizabeth Warren is worth at least $4.6M.  Democratic presidential contender Elizabeth Warren — who has proposed a "wealth tax" on the super-rich — and her husband have a net worth of between $4.6 million and $10.6 million, according to financial disclosure forms filed with the Senate.  Warren's minimum net worth was estimated to be at least $4.6 million in 2017, but since senators are required to report their assets in ranges, she could have as much as $10.6 million, the Center for Public Integrity reported.  She and her husband, Bruce Mann, reported an income of $913,000.

Elizabeth Warren [is] in big trouble now.  Stick a fork in cold crab omelette — the fake Indian is all done now.  She speak-um with forked tongue one time too many, and now The Washington Post, of all places, has scalped her.  The smoke signals went out last night — as early as 1986 she was lying on a Texas bar application that she was "American Indian."  Lieawatha admit-um she talk with forked tongue, only she use white-eye language, calling it "furthering confusion."  No confusion anywhere.  You are an utter fraud.  Fake Indian, you will have many moons to reflect on your serial lies.

The Epic Fraud of Elizabeth Warren.  Elizabeth Warren has claimed that she never used her supposed native American heritage for professional advantage, though the circumstantial evidence suggests otherwise.  Late this afternoon the Bezos Bulletin reported (though not until the 8th paragraph, with no hint of the key fact in the headline or the lede) that Warren did in fact claim to be 'American Indian' in her own handwriting in her application to the Texas Bar in 1986.

Uh Oh — Elizabeth Warren registered with Texas State Bar as "American Indian".  Elizabeth Warren's Native American Controversy just got worse for her.  A lot worse.  Not only did she falsely claim to be Native American for employment purposes, it turns out she registered as "American Indian" when she filled out her Texas Bar card.

Tough luck, Liz, the damage is already done.  Elizabeth Warren's apology to the Cherokee Nation isn't even close to enough, and shows she still doesn't get it.  Her presidential campaign is slumping not just because she took a DNA test.  It's slumping because she once claimed to be a minority, and has never explained why.  So she can issue as many DNA mea culpas as she wants, it still won't undo the damage she inflicted on her campaign by claiming that she's somehow a Native American.

No More Reservations — Liawatha Comes Clean, Apologizes to Cherokee Nation.  It would appear that U.S. Senator Elizabeth "I'ma-git-me-a-beer" Warren must have finally accepted the smoke signal polling provided by her political advisers.  In an attempt to regain credibility (won't happen) Liawatha comes clean. [...]

Elizabeth Warren apologizes to Cherokee Nation for DNA test.  Sen. Elizabeth Warren has apologized to the Cherokee Nation for her decision to take a DNA test to prove her Native American ancestry, according to reports.  "Senator Warren has reached out to us and has apologized to the tribe," tribal spokeswoman Julie Hubbard said in a statement Friday [2/1/2019].

Tribal Battle?  Senator Pocahontas Goes After Owner Of Washington Redskins.  1/1024th Native American Senator Elizabeth Warren is attacking the owner of an NFL Team named after Native Americans for buying a $100 million yacht.  Senator Pocahontas also known as Fauxcahontas over her claims of Native American heritage has come out firing today against the owner of the Redskins.  The owner, Dan Snyder was in the news this week for purchasing a giant superyacht for $100 Million.

Elizabeth Warren is not proposing a tax; she's proposing asset forfeiture.  Senator Warren apparently has found her guiding spirit and has announced along with her presidential campaign a campaign of economic terror based on force, not law.  Specifically, she has proposed to begin seizing a portion of the assets of some wealthy Americans, a course of action that the federal government has no constitutional power to undertake.  The seizure of assets is a fundamentally different thing from the taxation of income, which itself took a constitutional amendment to implement.  What Warren is proposing is essentially a federal version of the hated asset-forfeiture programs that have been so much abused by law-enforcement agencies — minus the allegation of criminal misconduct and made universal and annual.

Elizabeth Warren Introduces 'Wealth Tax' Aimed at America's Billionaires.  Presidential hopeful Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) is proposing a new "wealth tax" on Americans with more than $50 million in assets, along with a significant increase in funding for the Internal Revenue Service (IRS), in an effort to curb income and wealth inequality in America.

Elizabeth Warren proposes 'ultra-millionaire tax' as part of 2020 bid.  According to two economists advising her presidential campaign on the plan, the tax would hit an estimated 75,000 of the wealthiest American households.

Watch Out For Far Left Presidential Candidate Elizabeth Warren.  Everyone knows that Democratic Senator Elizabeth "Pocahontas" Warren of Massachusetts falsely claimed to be Native American.  But what do we know about her record?  She announced a couple of weeks ago that she has formed an exploratory committee for president, and is considered one of the leading contenders for the Democratic ticket.  Don't buy into her pseudo-populist rhetoric.  She is no moderate Democrat. [...] Warren denounced "flipping houses" in her books for hurting the little guy at the expense of rich speculators.  But she and her husband bought at least five homes in Oklahoma, two which were in foreclosure, then resold them.  They sold one of the homes for nearly four times the purchase price. [...] In 2013, Warren said the minimum wage should be $22 an hour.  During the 2016 presidential campaign, Warren called Donald Trump a "loser" and "wannabe tyrant."

Elizabeth Warren Struggles to Say How Many Branches of Government There Are.  Massachusetts Senator Elizabeth Warren thinks she is qualified to be President of the United States.  But apparently she doesn't even know how many branches of government there are.  Warren was making an appearance on left-wing CNN, where one would assume she would get nothing but softball questions.  But it looks like on Tuesday [1/22/2019] one of those softball questions threw the anti-capitalist Senator for a loop.

Why No One Likes Elizabeth Warren.  There's no surer sign that Warren is walking down Hillary Clinton Boulevard to the ditch of history than that a mere 3 days after she announced her run, her defenders are already accusing critics of sexism.  And it's even sillier for Warren's warriors to make the claim than it was when Hillary's hellions tried to attribute all criticism to sexism.  Hillary Clinton was the only major female candidate in the 2016 election.  Warren is likely to go up against two other women.  And no one is complaining about the likability indexes of Kamala Harris or Kirsten Gillibrand.  Nor is anyone comparing either woman to Hillary Clinton.  Likability isn't sexist.

Elizabeth Warren's First Week On The Stump [was] Filled With Missteps.  Democratic Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren kicked off her 2020 presidential campaign with a series of awkward gaffes and lingering questions about her alleged Native American ancestry.  The day Warren announced she was launching an exploratory committee for a 2020 bid, she appeared on Instagram Live with her husband, Bruce Mann.  In the video, Warren attempts to appear folksy as she tells viewers, "Hold on a sec, I'm gonna get me, um, a beer."  Warren returns to the frame with a bottled beer and then wraps her entire mouth around the bottle neck as she takes a sip.

I'll Say It: Elizabeth Warren Isn't Likeable.  I'm a conservative, so I don't really worry about whether I've offended liberal feminists.  I don't have a problem saying that Warren is unlikeable.  She seems preachy and angry to me.  Actually, she's a combination of some of the horrible math teachers I endured in middle school, and a friend's overly emotional mom.  This might sound pretty specific, but we've all met people like Warren.  She's an archetype of a genre that I'm pretty sure would turn off a lot of voters.  What is more, she increasingly looks like a phony — a problem she is reinforcing by trying to copy Alexandria Ocasio Cortez's Instagram game.

Elizabeth Warren's Money Game:  She collects cash, then demands her opponents disavow the methods she used.  As a candidate, Ms. Warren is limited in the amount anyone can donate to her.  But the Elizabeth Warren Action Fund is a joint fundraising vehicle with the Massachusetts Democratic State Committee and her own PAC.  That allows wealthy admirers to write six-figure checks.  Plenty did, including bankers and tort lawyers.  According to campaign-finance records, Ms. Warren's fund raised $4.9 million during the 2018 cycle and transferred the vast majority of it to her official Senate campaign.  Ms. Warren overall hauled in $25 million for that Senate race, despite facing little competition.  This left her $12.5 million, which the law conveniently allows her to transfer to her presidential primary campaign.

Elizabeth Warren is one more stale, big-government politician serving the elites.  Warren is not alone in portraying her politics-for-elites as populism.  Everyone from former Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton to Sen. Sherrod Brown, D-Ohio, have played a similar game.  That may be what sinks Warren:  She's old hat, now, in a party filled with younger, more interesting characters.  The whole party has tacked hard to the left.  What seemed edgy about Warren in 2010 is now nothing out of the ordinary:  more big government serving the well-connected.

Elizabeth Warren's "Dukakis Tank" moment.  [Elizabeth] Warren is surrounded by a team of consultants who have carefully managed her campaign rollout, and in the process have damaged her severely.  The release of her DNA test results right before the midterms is almost uniformly seen as a public relations disaster, from which she still is trying to recover.  Rather than confirm the validity of her claim when she was climbing the law professor ladder to Harvard to be Native American, it turned her into a laughingstock.  Then Warren announced her candidacy on New Year's Eve day.  What were her handlers thinking?  The timing could not have been worse.  Perhaps they thought that in a slow news cycle her announcement would dominate the headlines in a good way.  Instead, with little else going on, it gave even left-leaning media the opportunity to express doubts about her.

Fellow Democrat:  Warren Is "Shrill" And Could "Put Some People Off".  Massachusetts Senator Elizabeth Warren (D) has made official what everyone knew all along. She's running.  Or at least she's formed an exploratory committee so she can fundraise and evaluate her options.  As part of this process, she took the required step of scheduling a trip to Iowa to woo the voters of the first caucus state.  Unfortunately for her, the reception she received wasn't quite as warm as she might have hoped.  One of the county Democratic campaign chairmen there decided to go on record and tell reporters that, while he likes and admires Warren, she might not have the right temperament and personality to get over the finish line.  If he'd just phrased it that way the event might have passed without much notice.  But Jim Eliason decided to go one step further and describe Warren as "shrill," with mannerisms that might put voters off.

Pocahontas in pursuit of the White House.  The Iowa caucuses, Round One in the quadrennial exercise leading to the election of a president, are still a year away, but Sen. Elizabeth Warren of Massachusetts delivered a fix this week for Democrats who can't wait to get started on the considerable task of deposing Donald Trump.  As the old year died, she announced the formation of an "exploratory committee" to tell her that she's doing the right thing by running for president.  That's what "exploratory committees" are expected to do.  What else the committee is expected to "explore" is not exactly clear, but an exploration of her learned papers and past speeches, and the release of a video accompanying the announcement will show clearly what Mrs. Warren is up to.

Elizabeth Warren: dead phony walking.  Elizabeth Warren obviously has no concept of the damage she already has done to her future in national politics by revealing her DNA test results showing that she has less Native America DNA than the average citizen of this country.  How else could she have issued her bizarre Instagram video announcing her presidential campaign?  The live-feed video she posted to Instagram (but did not archive) lives on and has made her into a national joke, confirming that deep down, the genuine, authentic Elizabeth Warren is a phony.

Elizabeth Warren issues one of the most bizarre 'I am running!' videos of all time.  On Monday December 31, Sen Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) confirmed mounting speculation that she would be the first out of the gate to declare her candidacy for the 2020 Democrat presidential nomination. [...] Less well known is a 14-minute video that Warren broadcast live on Instagram at 7 PM EST from the kitchen in her home in Cambridge, Mass, which also touted her candidacy.  Using a cell phone, the video, featuring Warren's dog, her husband, and her pause to get a beer from her refrigerator while the broadcast continued, was not archived at her Instagram, Twitter, or Facebook accounts.  It was, however, captured and uploaded to YouTube by Newzzcafe.

Big Chief Elizabeth Warren makes big 2020 announcement!  Elizabeth Warren made a big announcement this morning, one that indicates she intends to run for president in a crowded Democratic field in 2020.

Elite Liberal Media Lines Up to Praise Pocahontas Warren on Today's 2020 Announcement.  Elizabeth Warren announced her 2020 run for the White House on Monday [12/31/2018].  She also released a life story video where she talks about the middle class.  Democrats are notorious for destroying the middle class but they pretend to care anyway.

Elizabeth Warren is one more stale, big-government politician serving the elites.  Elizabeth Warren was the future, once.  Now that she's entering the Democratic presidential primary, though, she's a stale politician pushing stale policies that would preserve the status quo. [...] Although she says the problem starts in Washington, with a "bought and paid for" government, she inexplicably wants to give the government more power.

Elizabeth Warren struggles to win support from black voters ahead of potential 2020 presidential campaign.  Senator Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass) worked for years to build relationships with black leaders, an effort that included becoming one of the first white politicians to endorse the Black Lives Matter movement.  But when she got in trouble recently for releasing a DNA test that struck many as racially insensitive, few black leaders rushed to her defence.

Go ahead, Elizabeth Warren, make Trump's day!  It's official — the fake Indian has tossed her war bonnet into the ring.  She wants to be the next Great White Father.  For many moons, we have known that this announcement about her "exploratory committee" was coming.  But still, the timing does seem a bit inauspicious.

Elizabeth Warren vs.  Wall Street.  Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D.-Mass., announced on Monday [12/31/2018] that she is forming an exploratory committee for a potential 2020 presidential bid.  Warren is known for keeping a watchful eye on big business and Wall Street, through proposed legislation and also for tough critiques during congressional hearings.  In fact, she recently took a swipe at big pharmaceutical companies through a bill unveiled earlier this month aimed at lowering the cost of prescription drugs by allowing the federal government to manufacture certain generic medications.  As the progressive senator gears up for a potential 2020 run, here's a look at some of her signature positions regarding business.

Elizabeth Warren 2020 Video Comes Out Swinging Against Fox News.  Elizabeth Warren sent out a video to supporters announcing that she is forming an exploratory committee — a first step before a 2020 presidential run — and it provides a good indication of the culture war set to emerge in the oncoming campaign.  The video is part biographical, tracking her ascent from law professor to senator.  The rest, serving as a primer of the current political climate, comes out swinging against the president supporters in the media, particularly his Fox News boosters that Warren warns have taken the country down a "dark path."

Elizabeth Warren Ignites More 2020 Speculation With Twitter Name Change.  The name of Democratic Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren's campaign's Twitter account changed Saturday night, reigniting speculation she has plans to launch a bid for the presidency in 2020.

Here are the Most Egregious Fake News Stories of 2018.  [#3] Boston Globe corrects Liz Warren story — makes her less Native American:  Democratic Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren released a DNA test in October seeking to prove her repeated claims that she has Native American ancestry.  The Boston Globe initially reported on the DNA test by explaining that Warren was somewhere between 1/32 and 1/512 Native American.  However, the paper eventually issued two corrections that damaged Warren's ancestral claims even further.

White lies catch up to Warren.  Where do I go to get my reputation back?  Do you know how many times I've been called a "racist" over the last six years for calling Elizabeth Warren exactly what she just called herself in Baltimore — "not a person of color."  In other words, a fake Indian.  She finally admitted the obvious on a Friday afternoon, just before Christmas, in front of what she must have assumed would be a somewhat sympathetic audience at a black college.

Desperate Big Chief Liz Warren tries to save 2020 run, admits she's NOT a 'person of color'.  Big Chief Liz Warren is desperately trying to save her 2020 presidential aspirations after completely face-planting in her attempt to show up President Trump.  She told a group of African-Americans at a historically black university that she's not a "person of color" and cannot understand what it means to face discrimination.

Elizabeth Warren Admits She Is Not A Person Of Color.  Democratic Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren admitted on Friday that she is not a person of color, despite recently seeking to prove that she has Native American ancestry.  In October, Warren released a DNA test in an attempt to combat President Donald Trump's many attacks on her alleged Native American ancestry.  The test results showed that she has a Native American ancestor "in the range of 6 [to] 10 generations ago."  But during a commencement address at Morgan State University in Baltimore, Maryland, on Friday [12/14/2018], Warren made clear that she does not consider herself a person of color.

Elizabeth Warren forges a 2020 machine.  Sen. Elizabeth Warren has the core of her 2020 team in place if she runs for president.  She has the seed money — there's $12.5 million ready to go, left from her recent Senate run — and a massive email list she's amassed over years, boosted by a $3.3 million investment in digital infrastructure and advertising in the last election alone.  Her aides have been quietly shopping for presidential campaign headquarters space in the Boston area in recent weeks, according to a source with knowledge of the move.  All that's left is for her to give the green light.

Smoke signals say Elizabeth Warren's presidential dreams are over.  When the fake Indian loses both The New York Times and The Boston Globe on the same day, you know she's lost America.  Well, her America anyway — the virtue-signaling PC America of trust funds, grievance peddlers, fake hate crimes, candlelight vigils, Harvard Square cheese shops and smug yard signs proclaiming "Hate Has No Home Here."  What an ignominious end for Harvard Law School's "first woman of color," and just because it turned out that Elizabeth Warren's color was white — alabaster in fact.  She's whiter than Casper the Friendly Ghost dipped in a vat of Elmer's Glue.

Elizabeth Warren Is Tested and Found Wanting.  Senator Elizabeth Warren thought she was solving a problem that presented a clear obstacle to her presidential ambitions.  But it turns out that taking a DNA test to disprove President Donald Trump's taunts disputing her claims of Native American heritage didn't just fail to shut him or other conservative critics up:  It also exposed her to the sort of criticisms from the left that may turn out to be fatal to her hopes of winning the Democratic presidential nomination in 2020.

Biggest Loser:  Elizabeth Warren.  For a decade Ms. Warren, 69, has been busy trying to remake Washington in her progressive image.  Her role in creating a new financial regulatory apparatus gave her outsize influence over the bureaucracy.  Her successful 2012 Senate bid gave her a megaphone to rail against "billionaires, bigots and Wall Street bankers" — and Donald Trump.  The left begged her to challenge Hillary Clinton in 2016 and rebrand the Democratic Party as a populist, progressive force.  Ms. Warren demurred, leaving the field to Bernie Sanders.  She instead carefully designed this year's midterms as her launchpad to the presidency.

Elizabeth Warren's political path faces roadblocks.  U.S. Sen. Elizabeth Warren appears headed for a costly re-election victory, one in which even her own supporters are rejecting her national ambitions and still expressing doubts about her claims of Cherokee ancestry.  Warren holds a comfortable 20-point lead over GOP opponent Geoff Diehl heading into Tuesday's election, but landing just a few points above 50 percent is not especially impressive in a state where Democrats outnumber Republicans by a 3-1 margin.

The White-Privilege Tedium.  The recent farce involving Elizabeth Warren's "ancestry" has not only probably aborted her presidential aspirations, but — along with the Asian-American lawsuit against Harvard's admission practices — also reminded us of the growing corruption of race-based set-asides.  Warren's desperate gambit was simply a response to the new reality that minority status often has little relation with appearance.

Elizabeth Warren Has Lost Her Way And So Has The Identity Politics-Obsessed Left.  The Atlantic published a story this morning [10/22/2018] titled "Elizabeth Warren Has Lost Her Way" which looks back on her decision to take a DNA test to settle the question of her heritage and blames the whole affair on President Trump. [...] In my view, Flanagan is quite a bit too eager to blame Warren's decision to take the test on Trump.  Yes, he did mock her alleged heritage quite a few times in the past two years but he isn't the one who told Harvard to list Warren as Native American in government-mandated EEOC reports.  She did that.  He isn't the one who contributed recipes to a Native cookbook.  Warren did that.  He isn't the one who bragged about having a Native American professor on staff.  Harvard did that.  Warren has said she never benefitted from her self-identification, but there's no doubt Harvard tried to do so.  And Trump isn't the one who stuck to very specific heritage claims after genealogical investigations found no evidence of any Native American ancestor.  Warren did that too.

Warren took DNA test to rebuild 'trust in government'.  Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., on Sunday said that she took the DNA test that showed a relative six to 10 generations ago was Native American in an effort to rebuild "trust in the government" through transparency.  Warren said the comment during a tense debate with her Republican challenger for Senate in Massachusetts, state Rep. Geoff Diehl.  Warren, 69, is running for her second six-year term in the Senate and is a potential 2020 candidate for president.  She said that trust in the government is at an all-time low and changed her mind about the test after saying no to being tested in March.

Warren Finally Admits: 'I Am Not A Citizen Of Any Tribal Nation'.  Sen. Elizabeth Warren, the Massachusetts Democrat who for decades claimed she was a Native American, has finally come out and said what we've all known for ages:  She's no Indian. [...] Warren listed herself as Native American in the Association of American Law School Directory, and according to The Boston Globe, she "had her ethnicity changed from white to Native American at the University of Pennsylvania Law School, where she taught from 1987 to 1995, and at Harvard University Law School, where she was a tenured faculty member starting in 1995."  Some critics say she got the Harvard slot by claiming to be American Indian.  "Harvard Law School in the 1990s touted Warren, then a professor in Cambridge, as being Native American,'" CNN reported last November.  "They singled her out, Warren later acknowledged, because she had listed herself as a minority in an Association of American Law Schools directory."

Elizabeth Warren's ex-husband founded DNA testing company.  Sen. Elizabeth Warren's ex-husband co-founded a DNA testing company and wrote one of the first computer codes for making genetic comparisons.  Jim Warren's career involved him in the kinds of genetic testing that Elizabeth Warren controversially invoked this month to prove that she had Native American ancestry.  One of the two other co-founders of his testing company, FamilyTreeDNA, has worked with Carlos Bustamante, the Stanford University geneticist who administered a DNA test at Elizabeth Warren's request.

Burning with ambition and lunacy.  [Scroll down]  Then there's Pocahontas, aka Sen. Elizabeth Warren, Massachusetts Democrat, who is allegedly 1/64th to 1/1024th Cherokee.  Egged on by President Trump, she took a DNA test.  All it did was to prove without a doubt that her listing as a minority at the University of Pennsylvania and Harvard was not remotely honest.  For good measure, the Cherokee Nation angrily disputed her status as a tribal member.  Here's the self-immolation:  She publicized the test results, claiming victory.  Some media broadcast it that way, most notably CNN, which now reports almost exclusively from Alice's Wonderland.

Native Americans, Liberal Writers Excoriate Warren's 'Indefensible' Native American Posturing.  Like many conservatives, I've been a critic of Sen. Elizabeth Warren for years.  She's a hardcore statist and collectivist whose views on nearly every major issues are, in my view, deeply wrong-headed.  I've also been writing about her dubious-to-fraudulent "Native American" gambit for quite some time, having featured the matter during an examination of the Left's obsession with "privilege" in my 2015 book, End of Discussion.  Warren is not a Native American, yet there's strong circumstantial evidence that she identified as one for a very discrete period of time in order to advance her career.  It is therefore unsurprising that I greeted her latest, ludicrous endeavor to justify her so-called 'heritage' with scorn.  So did many others who generally share my worldview.  What may be slightly more surprising is that a fair number of leftists are also heaping criticism upon her.  Some are bemoaning her tactics and timing (why now, a question I took a stab at in my previous post), but others are flaying her on substance, too.

Elizabeth Warren: 'I am not a citizen of any tribal nation'.  Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., made it clear Friday night [10/19/2018] that she does not belong to any Native American tribe, after she took a DNA test that she said demonstrates that she likely has a distant Native American ancestor.  "I am not a citizen of any tribal nation," she said in a debate with her Republican Senate rival, Geoff Diehl.  "Only tribes determine tribal citizenship, it's not done by DNA."

Geoff Diehl hits Elizabeth Warren over DNA results.  U.S. Sen. Elizabeth Warren's controversial DNA test claiming she has Native American roots was front and center at last night's first senatorial debate.  So, too, was her 2020 Oval Office ambition and distrust of President Trump.  "I am an open book," Warren said as GOP rival state Rep. Geoff Diehl questioned whether she used her family lore of having Cherokee heritage to land a better job.

The Blackface Party.  I must have missed something:  Was there some kind of all-hands white-people meeting at which we voted to kick the Democrats out?  Elizabeth Warren, Rachel Dolezal, Beto O'Rourke — what's up with all the ethnic play-acting?  Isn't cultural appropriation supposed to be a bad thing among progressives?  Isn't blackface (and brownface) supposed to be an unforgivable sin?

Elizabeth Warren's 'part' Cherokee claim is a joke, and a racist insult to Natives like me.  The day after a CNN public opinion poll ranked Elizabeth Warren fourth among possible Democratic 2020 hopefuls, the Massachusetts senator released the results of a DNA test along with a campaign-style ad defending her family's story of Cherokee heritage.  Warren's decision to cave to President Donald Trump's demands was an affront to many Native Americans, who have long stated that DNA tests cannot be used to claim Native heritage or relationship to a tribe.  Cherokee Nation, the largest tribe in the United States, agrees.  In a public statement, the tribe called Warren's use of a DNA test "inappropriate and wrong," and said the senator "is undermining tribal interests with her continued claims of tribal heritage."  Neither Warren nor the Democratic Party has responded to the statement.

Trump mocks Elizabeth Warren's DNA test and says senator's stunt 'probably disqualified' her from running for president.  President Donald Trump has resumed mocking Senator Elizabeth Warren over the results of her private DNA analysis, joking that the test showed so little native ancestry that he can no longer call her 'Pocahontas'.  'You know the one good thing about her test is that there was so little — there was less than the average American,' Trump said on Thursday [10/18/2018] at a midterm campaign rally in Missoula, Montana.  Warren, a Democrat from Massachusetts, released the test results on Monday, showing that she had as little as 1/1,024th Native American ancestry.  'I used to say, 'I have more Indian blood in me than she does and I have none,' and I was right,' Trump continued.

Fabricating Hate Crimes Is a Byproduct of Victimhood Ideology on College Campuses.  [Scroll down]  The overwhelmingly dominant ideology on college campuses celebrates victimhood, even above achievement, and achievement itself is worthless without victimhood.  If one doesn't maintain some kind of victimhood status, your opinion is worth less, your accomplishments are dismissed, and your success is written off as the product of privilege.  It's no wonder Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., continues to maintain that she has Native American heritage — which Harvard Law School once openly celebrated — despite the thinnest of evidence that she has any connection to the Cherokee tribe.

Why Many Native Americans Are Angry With Elizabeth Warren.  If Senator Elizabeth Warren thought that releasing her DNA test results showing Native American ancestry would neutralize a Republican line of attack, she was wrong.  The test — part of her strategic preparations for a likely presidential campaign — did not placate President Trump, who has mocked Ms. Warren as "Pocahontas" and once promised $1 million to a charity of her choice if a DNA test substantiated her claims of Cherokee and Delaware heritage.  And her announcement of the results angered many Native Americans, including the Cherokee Nation, the largest of the country's three federally recognized Cherokee tribes.  DNA testing cannot show that Ms. Warren is Cherokee or any other tribe, the secretary of state of the Cherokee Nation, Chuck Hoskin Jr., said in a statement.  Tribes set their own citizenship requirements, not to mention that DNA tests don't distinguish among the numerous indigenous groups of North and South America.  The test Ms. Warren took did not identify Cherokee ancestry specifically; it found that she most likely had at least one Native American ancestor six to 10 generations ago.

The Editor says...
The expression, "six to ten generations ago" indicates the ambiguity and inaccuracy of DNA tests for ancestry.

Democrats Know They Can Always Count on the Media.  This week, Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., in preparation for a 2020 presidential run, decided to fight back against President Trump's brutal nickname for her:  Pocahontas.  Trump, you'll recall, labeled her Pocahontas because for years, she has claimed Native American ancestry.  Not only that, she claimed repeatedly that her mother's Native American ancestry drove her parents to elope after her father's family refused to welcome her mother with open arms thanks to their bigotry.  As it turns out, Warren could never provide any evidence of Native American ancestry — even though she spent years labeling herself Native American while at the University of Pennsylvania Law School as well as Harvard Law School.

Establishment Media Reverse Course to Blast Elizabeth Warren over DNA Fiasco.  Sen. Elizabeth Warren's (D-MA) roll-out of her DNA test has been such a train wreck that even the establishment media have been forced to reverse course and admit to it.  As hard as the media worked to cover and lie for her for over those first 24 hours, the unassailable facts have forced them to throw in the towel.  The science is settled:  Elizabeth Warren is a fake Indian.

Did Elizabeth 'She Who Lies Through Teeth' Warren just lose 2020?  Sen. Elizabeth Warren is a liar.  She's long been a liar, but on Monday she decided to release proof that she's a liar, in the form of DNA test results.  The Massachusetts Democrat has claimed for decades that she is part American Indian, that her mother has Indian ancestry.  The way she tells the tale, the lineage was so recent that her father's parents told him "you can't marry [Warren's mother] because she's part Cherokee and she's part Delaware."  They had to flee to be free from the racism they would suffer.  President Trump enjoys taunting Ms. Warren with the nickname "Pocahontas," and it's clearly gotten under her skin.  So with her 2020 ambitions coming into view, Ms. Warren decided to get a DNA test to prove her longtime claim.

Nine Lies the Media Are Telling You About Elizabeth Warren's DNA Test.  Spreading lies to benefit the Democrat Party is what the establishment media do.  For example, over the weekend, NBC News fabricated the lie that President Trump gushed over Confederate General Robert E. Lee.  This was a deliberate lie to smear Trump as racist, and it was only corrected by NBC after the lie had run its course.  Over the same weekend, CNN crafted its own lie to make Donald Trump Jr. look racist.  The media lie.  And then the media lie some more.  And now the media are lying about Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) and her debacle of a DNA test.  These are lies of omission and commission, but they are still lies because the media are desperate to mislead and deceive.

Pocahontas descendant rips Warren, calls on senator to apologize.  Sen. Elizabeth Warren has a new critic of her widely-panned DNA test:  an actual descendant of Pocahontas.  Debbie White Dove Porreco appeared on "Tucker Carlson Tonight" to discuss findings that the Massachusetts lawmaker may have between 0.09 percent to [and] 1.5 percent American Indian ancestry.  The study, which counted Mexican, Colombian, and Peruvian DNA in Ms. Warren's favor, prompted Ms. Porreco to demand an apology.  "It did prove that she wasn't the Cherokee Indian that she was claiming to be for so long," she told Mr. Carlson, Townhall reported.  "I think she's guilty of claiming she's an American Indian but has no proof — and then [is] using it for applications for college, for political reasons."

Elizabeth Warren Melts Down in Wake of DNA Disaster.  Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) launched a bizarre Twitter rant late Monday afternoon following the disastrous rollout of DNA results that further debunked her decades-long claim to American Indian ancestry.  Warren's thread of 20-plus (and counting) tweets began at about 5:30 p.m. ET, where she attempted to both insult President Trump and defend herself.

Cherokee Genealogist Says Elizabeth Warren's Not a Cherokee.  A Cherokee genealogist traced Elizabeth Warren's ancestry to the Trail of Tears.  What he found shouldn't startle anyone.  Warren has no Cherokee blood.  A mixed Native-American woman explained to Fox host Jesse Waters that a Cherokee genealogist traced Elizabeth Warren's heritage and she "Doesn't have a single Cherokee ancestor'".  Warren was listed as a "woman of color" in the 1993 Harvard student journal.

Scientist: Warren Could Have 1/64th to 1/1,024th Native American Heritage.  Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D., Mass.) released DNA test results showing she could be anywhere between 1/64th to 1/1,024th Native American in an attempt to diffuse a controversy that has dogged her political career for years.  The aggressive move by the first-term lawmaker is yet another sign she will run in 2020 against President Donald Trump, who has derided her as "Pocahontas" for years, even at an event honoring Native American Code Talkers from World War II.  Warren listed herself as Native American while teaching at the University of Pennsylvania Law School from 1987 to 1995 and then at Harvard Law School beginning in 1995, the Boston Globe reports.  Fact-checkers had not been able to verify her claims because they were based on "family lore."

Elizabeth Warren takes political hit with much-mocked DNA rollout.  Sen. Elizabeth Warren became the punchline for more "Pocahontas" jokes Tuesday after her high-profile DNA rollout backfired, angering Native Americans and rekindling questions about her claims to Cherokee ancestry.  President Trump called on her to apologize for "perpetrating this fraud against the American Public" after her DNA test showed she has between 1/64th and 1/1,024th Native blood, or 0.09 to 1.5 percent, about the same as the average U.S. white person.

The Editor says...
The figures given — 0.09 to 1.5 percent — imply a range of possibilities.  But what they're trying to say, in the simplest terms, is that Ms. Warren is either one-512th OR one-1,024th Indian.  Those are the only two possibilities in this case.  And if there's any doubt about that one ancestor 10 generations ago, then Ms. Warren has no Indian ancestry at all.

Elizabeth Warren and her little DNA story.  President Trump has been on another winning streak, and the Democrats are desperate for attention.  Their problem?  All the attention they get is also a win for the president, as it reminds us why he won in 2016 and why winning again in the midterm is so important.  Let's start with something the media takes little heed of:  The record job openings for the summer.  CNBC's headline says it all:  "Another great sign for the economy:  Job openings hit an all-time high in August."  CNBC also noted, the "survey also found a near-record amount of quits for the month, indicating workers' confidence in finding new positions."  That's right.  Not only do Americans have a job, but Mr. Trump has created an environment where we have more control over what we're doing, and know we can find something better for ourselves and our families.  Americans are in charge of their lives again.

Elizabeth Warren's DNA Test Proves She Was Lying.  Why did Sen. Elizabeth Warren spend all these years claiming to be a Native American?  One plausible answer might be that her family had lied to her, or were also misled about their heritage, and that Warren truly believed she was Cherokee.  This happens relatively often, I suppose.  Then again, few people exhibit as much certitude, and gain as many benefits, over a claim that's so obscure and unverifiable.  The second is that Warren herself lied or exaggerated her heritage, knowing full well that her contention to Cherokee ancestry was likely nothing more than lore.

Elizabeth Warren may be less Native American than average U.S. white person.  Sen. Elizabeth Warren's newly released DNA results show that the Democrat's Native American ancestry is roughly the same as that of the average white American, and may be less.  A 2014 study by Harvard University and 23andMe found that European Americans tested overall for 0.18 percent Native American ancestry, while Ms. Warren's results show she has anywhere from 0.09 percent to 1.5 percent.  "This means that the DNA test shows that Warren is actually LESS NATIVE AMERICAN than the average American of European ancestry," said Cornell Law School professor William A. Jacobson on his right-tilting Legal Insurrection blog.

Elizabeth Warren's Latest 'Native American' Defense is a Cringe-worthy Embarrassment.  [Scroll down]  This very much leaves open the wildly entertaining possibility that Donald Trump is, in fact, more "Native American" than Elizabeth Warren.  But anyway, yes, she's obviously running for president, and she knows that this issue will cause headaches among not only right-leaning voters who already oppose her, but also among progressive voters who might hold certain Identity Politics infractions against her.

Did Elizabeth Warren Just Kill Identity Politics?  "Elizabeth Warren's Native American Heritage" is the title of a new campaign video promoting the senior senator from Massachusetts.  Ms. Warren, a former Harvard law professor, is claiming vindication after presenting the results of a genetic test which appears to show she likely has more of a claim to Native American heritage — but perhaps less of a claim — than the average white person in the United States.  The likely 2020 Democratic presidential candidate has been trying to find some way to respond to questions about her longtime claim of Native American heritage given that her family doesn't belong to a tribe.

Elizabeth Warren Reffered [sic] To As "Woman Of Color" In 1995 Fordham Law Review.  She knew it was a lie yet was willing to use that lie to further her academic career.  Senator Elizabeth Warren, aka "Pocahauntus" is not even close to being Native American.  In fact, she's less Native American than the vast majority of Americans who consider themselves white.  The question now is if the media and the Democrat Party will be willing to admit the same.

Cherokee nation rains on Elizabeth Warren's parade.  Elizabeth Warren was doing a victory dance about her DNA test showing "strong evidence" she may have 1/1,024 or 0.09 percent Native American lineage.  In hot pursuit, she called on President Trump to "pay up" with his $1 million offer to the charity of her choice for taking the DNA test he said he would toss to her at a future presidential debate, earlier.  As the network press admiringly gushed about the whole "gotcha," she was convinced she had him cornered.  Well, sorry — that debate hasn't happened yet, and now it's doubtful that it ever will, because Warren is hearing from the leaders of the Cherokee nation.

Spreading Bull.  Just what did Elizabeth Warren, the persistently unhinged Democrat senator from Massachusetts, expect to gain from releasing a DNA test proving she isn't a Native American while insisting the test indicates that she is?  Perhaps it was the glowing-but-hilarious Boston Globe headline which read "Warren reveals test confirming ancestry."  That in and of itself may have been enough — though the Globe story going with that front-page headline Monday advertised Warren's heritage as 1/512th Native American.  And then the Globe retracted that claim due to what it called a "math error," and admitted it was going with a different number — 1/1024th.

Megyn Kelly: Elizabeth Warren 'Scored A Goal Against Herself' With DNA Test.  NBC News' Megyn Kelly ridiculed Democratic Sen. Elizabeth Warren on Tuesday [10/16/2018] for her DNA test showing that she is less than two percent Native American.  [Video clip]

Citizen of Cherokee Nation slams Warren's political ambition.  A citizen of the Cherokee Nation on Monday said Sen. Elizabeth Warren is "more concerned" about her political future than the interests of tribal sovereignty and Native rights.  Warren's long-standing assertion of Native American heritage was called into question Monday after the results of her DNA test were made public.  Warren published the DNA results as a rebuttal to President Donald Trump, who has long mocked her ancestral claims by referring to her as "Pocahontas."  While the results indicated the Massachusetts Senator may indeed have some Native American heritage — anywhere from 1/64 to 1/1,024 — the matter was not settled for everyone.  Rebecca Nagle, a citizen of the Cherokee Nation, told Fox News' 'The Ingraham Angle' that Native American identity "is not up to Elizabeth Warren."

Gutfeld on Elizabeth Warren's latest claim.  Senator Elizabeth Warren just released a campaign ad, disguised as a DNA test.  Or maybe it was a DNA test disguised as a campaign ad.  In it she ladles her DNA results with somber relatives and music — and includes me.  I'm touched.  But that happens every time I take the subway.  So her Native American ancestry may date back 6 to 10 generations.  She's potentially one-one thousand and twenty fourth Indian — which is 0.09 percent.

Warren's DNA test renews scrutiny of long history claiming Native-American heritage.  The high-profile rollout of Elizabeth Warren's DNA test is causing more headaches for the Democratic senator, as the results fuel Republican critics' claims that she used a trace amount of Native American heritage to advance her academic career.  Warren, D-Mass., released her DNA test results to The Boston Globe, and then to the public, on Monday.  The results revealed "strong evidence" Warren had a Native-American ancestor dating back six to 10 generations.  But that means she only would be between 1/64 and 1/1024 Native American — possibly less than the average European American, according to one 2014 study.

Boston Globe Botches Math Correction on Elizabeth Warren DNA Test Story.  The Boston Globe botched its math correction in its defense of Sen. Elizabeth Warren's (D-MA) debunked claim of American Indian ancestry.  On Monday [10/15/2018], the far-left outlet published the results of Warren's DNA test, something she has been under pressure to take after her repeated claims to be part Cherokee were debunked.  President Trump regularly uses Warren's false claim of Indian ancestry to ridicule the Senator, and now that she is eyeing a 2020 presidential run, she is hoping to clear this up.  Unfortunately for Warren, the DNA test only proved she shares no more American Indian heritage than the average white American.

Elizabeth Warren has appointed herself head of the #MeSioux movement.  Elizabeth Warren, has claimed to be an American Indian.  Now, she did this to advance her career and it worked.  Harvard Law School once boasted that Warren was the first woman of color to ever serve on their faculty.  Woman of color.  But Warren also used her fake Indian heritage to frame herself as somebody affected by America's sad history of racial discrimination.  Warren posed as a victim because on the left, victimhood is power. [...] Well as it turned out old Liawatha couldn't come up with a single, not one American Indian in her family tree.  The rest of the country laughed at her, and rightly so.

Elizabeth Warren builds expansive Democratic campaign effort ahead of likely 2020 bid.  During the past six months, Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) has quietly built a shadow war room designed to elect Democrats across the country in the midterm elections, overtaking some of the traditional duties of Democratic Party campaign committees and further positioning herself for an all-but-certain 2020 presidential bid.  Her effort, which goes far beyond the fundraising and endorsement speeches in which prospective presidential candidates typically engage, has encompassed work in all 50 states and close coordination with more than 150 campaigns.  The result is a wide-ranging network that includes those running for state treasurer in Nevada, state legislature in Iowa and congressional offices around the country.

Warren releases results of DNA test.  The analysis of Warren's DNA was done by Carlos D. Bustamante, a Stanford University professor and expert in the field who won a 2010 MacArthur fellowship, also known as a genius grant, for his work on tracking population migration via DNA analysis.  He concluded that "the vast majority" of Warren's ancestry is European, but he added that "the results strongly support the existence of an unadmixed Native American ancestor."

The Editor says...
The "existence of [one] Native American ancestor" is very weak justification for calling yourself a Native American.  Whoever the ancestor was, it must have been centuries ago; otherwise, Ms. Warren would have produced a family tree or some other documentation to support her claims.

General Kelly reveals the truth about Elizabeth Warren:  She's uncouth in private.  Democratic presidential frontrunner hopeful Sen. Elizabeth Warren always prides herself on being the candidate of the little guy.  In her old-fashioned granny suits with her old-fashioned glasses, she speaks in a soft, syrupy voice and calls herself a consumer advocate.  Naturally, there's not a left-wing cause on Earth the Massachusetts Democrat won't support, and of course, as a professional fake Indian with affirmative action professorships under her belt, an incongruous house-flipping history, an Imelda-sized wardrobe, and a big bankbook, she knows how to play the games, academic or otherwise.  But she always portrays herself as nice.  She doesn't have that hectoring, cackling, manic, revolting voice you hear from Hillary Clinton.  Nope, Warren's always soft, soothing, and smooth.  But then we hear how she acts in private.

Police Union Refuses to Endorse Warren Over Her Attacks on Law Enforcement.  One of Boston's largest police unions has refused to endorse Democratic Sen. Elizabeth Warren (Mass.) in her bid for re-election this year, citing the senator's "derogatory" attacks on law enforcement.  Last week, the Boston Police Patrolmen's Association announced it could not support Warren because her tenure in the Senate and comments rebuking the criminal justice system as "racist" prove she doesn't "stand" with law enforcement, according to the Boston Herald.  The union, which represents over 1,500 law enforcement officers, has opted to endorse Warren's Republican challenger, Geoff Diehl, instead.

We need full-time senator.  Massachusetts deserves to have full representation in the U.S. Senate by elected officials who are dedicated to advocating on behalf of their constituents and not potential voters in a presidential election.  Sen. Elizabeth Warren has long been rumored to be seeking the nation's highest office, but at a town hall in western Massachusetts Saturday, she all but confirmed it. [...] Sen. Warren is brazenly telling us that she intends to drop all commitments to the voters in Massachusetts, soon after her re-election to the U.S. Senate.

Elizabeth Warren's castoffs?  Priceless!  More than three years ago, Sen. Elizabeth Warren told the Internal Revenue Service that she had donated $50,000 in used clothing and "household items" to local thrift stores in 2014.  Fifty grand worth of clothes!  Donated!  In one year.  That was the fake Indian's story and she was sticking to it — until late yesterday afternoon, after we inquired about her rather, uh, profligate spending habits.  Suddenly, the fake Indian's story changed.

Cherokee Woman Blasts Warren For 'Lies' About Native American Ancestry.  A Cherokee woman and Democratic activist denounced Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D., Mass.) for her "lies" about being Native American and accused the likely presidential candidate of cultural appropriation and "racial identity theft."  Warren, who listed herself as a minority in law school based on her papaw's "high cheekbones" and was recognized as Harvard Law's "first woman of color" will not receive the support of Rebecca Nagle.  Writing in the Huffington Post, Nagle, a citizen of Cherokee Nation who identifies as a "two-spirit," says Warren should not become president because of her "false claims" of Native American ancestry.  "As a registered Democrat, I agree with a wide range of Warren's policies," Nagle writes.  "But as a Cherokee woman, I cannot support her until she rescinds her false claims of Cherokee and Delaware heritage."  "Racial identity theft is normally not socially acceptable," Nagle said.

Elizabeth Warren will dump Massachusetts to serve her ambition.  At a town hall event on Saturday [9/29/2018], Warren told the crowd, "Time's up.  It's time for women to go to Washington and fix our broken government, and that includes a woman at the top.  So here's what I promise:  After Nov. 6, I will take a hard look at running for president."

Elizabeth Warren says she will take a "hard look" at running for president after midterms.  Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren said that she would consider running for president at a town hall in Holyoke, Massachusetts, on Saturday [9/29/2018].  "After November 6, I will take a hard look at running for president," Warren said, to an extended standing ovation from her audience.  This is the first time that Warren has publicly said that she is considering a presidential bid.

Elizabeth Warren has a luxury wardrobe to put Imelda Marcos to shame.  Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.), who's getting ready to run for president, is cleaning out her closets. [...] Not since Bill Clinton tried to tell the IRS his used underwear was worth $5 a pop have we heard an excuse like this one from a Democrat.  First, note that Team Warren claims that the $9,376 amount is approximately the same as the $8,000 she claimed on her 2014 taxes.  So it wasn't exactly a decades' worth of closet-clearing, some Swedish death-cleaning mother of all cleanouts to pare down.  Nope, it's an annual event, amounting almost ten thousand bucks a year off her taxes.

Elizabeth Warren ignites Democratic border war with Rhode Island over tribal casino.  The Massachusetts Democrat has unleashed an intraparty border war with Rhode Island lawmakers over the legislation as she fights her "Pocahontas" problem by embracing American Indian causes.  Rhode Island Gov. Gina Raimondo, a Democrat, is leading the charge against the Mashpee Wampanoag Tribe Reservation Reaffirmation Act, sponsored by Ms. Warren and the Bay State delegation, that would allow the tribe to build a $1 billion casino in Taunton, Massachusetts.  The problem?  If approved, the proposed First Light Resort and Casino is expected to divert millions of dollars from Rhode Island's two casinos, the Twin Rivers in Lincoln and Twin Rivers in Tiverton, both near the Massachusetts border.

Elizabeth Warren Attacks Navy Admiral over Party He Attended 14 Years Ago.  Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA), a potential 2020 Democratic presidential contender, attacked Navy Vice Adm. Craig Faller Tuesday [9/25/2018] during his confirmation hearing to become commander of U.S. Southern Command (SOUTHCOM) over a decision 14 years ago to attend a party during a port visit to Hong Kong.  Faller's attendance at the 2004 party was reported in a Washington Post article the day before the confirmation hearing.  The article described a lavish party for more than 50 Navy officers from the USS Abraham Lincoln aircraft carrier strike group during a port visit to Hong Kong at a luxury hotel "where they savored cocktails, cigars and courses of Oscietra caviar, black truffles and lobster thermidor."

The 2020 Dem Spectacle:  Spartacus and the Native American.  [Scroll down]  Then there's the blond and blue-eyed Dem senator from Massachusetts who boasted she is part Cherokee to maneuver her way up the ladder of quota-conscious academia.  Skeptics have suggested she take a DNA test to prove her bona fides.  She apparently has taken that test privately and didn't like the results, because she refuses to take one publicly.  Instead, she tells us to trust those high cheekbones of hers (which sounds vaguely racist to me).  Real native Americans remain unconvinced.  And they're unhappy because her bogus claim stole a seat in the affirmative action derby.  But native Americans don't matter to the Dems because there aren't many of them and they don't vote much.

Poll: Majority of MA Voters Don't Want Warren to Run for President.  A new poll shows a majority of Massachusetts voters don't want Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D., Mass.) to run for president in 2020 according to a Suffolk University Political Research Center/Boston Globe poll.  Fifty-eight percent of likely Massachusetts voters don't want Warren to run while only 32 percent said she should run.

The Circus of Resistance.  Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.), former Harvard Law Professor who still insists she is of Native American heritage, called for the president to be removed by invoking the 25th Amendment.  Apparently fabricating an ethnic identity is sane, and getting out of the Iran deal or the Paris Climate Accord is insanity and grounds for removal.

Elizabeth Warren Calls For Trump Coup.  Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren, seizing on an explosive op-ed from an anonymous administration official, said Thursday [9/6/2018] that it's time to use constitutional powers to remove President Donald Trump office if top officials don't think he can do the job. [...] That's actually the opposite of how the Constitution works.  It does not provide a mechanism for removing a president if some officials don't like him.  That's not what the 25th Amendment is for.  It provides a clear process for when a president is incapacitated, say after a shooting, and was an artifact of the JFK assassination.

Elizabeth Warren's op-ed rant far oversteps bounds.  Elizabeth Warren continues to showcase her activist skill set, but she was elected to be a senator — not a protester.  Her latest ploy is to demand the ouster of President Trump in the wake of an op-ed published in The New York Times earlier this week purportedly from a high-level White House insider.  The author suggested that there was a "resistance" in the administration working to prevent Trump from following through on dangerous decisions.  In an email blast, Warren wrote, "If senior officials believe the president is unfit, they should stop hiding behind anonymous op-eds and leaking information to Bob Woodward boasting that they're trying to save our country, and instead do what the Constitution demands they do:  invoke the 25th Amendment and remove this president from office."

The Editor says...
"Senior officials" don't invoke the 25th Amendment and remove this president from office" in any case.  That's a process that would take place in the two houses of Congress.  One would think that a U.S. Senator would know that.

Elizabeth Warren calls for Trump's removal from office under 25th Amendment.  Sen. Elizabeth Warren called on White House officials Thursday to remove President Trump from office as unfit to handle the job.  The Massachusetts Democrat and progressive hero, often touted as a 2020 presidential hopeful, said Wednesday's op-ed in The New York Times by an anonymous White House official justifies forcing out Mr. Trump under the constitutional provisions for an incapacitated president.  "If senior administration officials think the President of the United States is not able to do his job, then they should invoke the 25th Amendment," she told CNN in an interview.

Report: Harvard did not consider Warren as Native American.  Harvard University's decision to hire Elizabeth Warren as a law professor in the 1990s was not based on any assertion that she has Native American heritage, according to a report by the Boston Globe.

Elizabeth Warren promises legal weed if Dems take Senate.  A vote for Massachusetts U.S. Sen. Elizabeth Warren and other Democrats in the upper chamber is basically a vote to decriminalize marijuana on a federal level, it's just a matter of getting Senate Leader Mitch McConnell out of the way.  That's message Warren sent to stoners during a recent sit-down with Rolling Stone, when she touted legislation called the STATES Act that she co-sponsored with Colorado Republican Sen. Cory Gardner to shift control over marijuana laws to individual states, rather than the federal government.

Who do you trust more on government, Reagan or 'Pocahontas' Warren?  The fact [Senator Elizabeth] Warren's considered a leader in the Democrat party speaks volumes as to the deteriorated condition of political discourse in today's America and exposes, yet again, the reasons why Donald Trump so successfully captured the imaginations of "Reagan Democrats" two years ago.  It's true the sight of a government boat might be welcome if you're stranded on the rooftop of a house engulfed by floodwaters, but Warren's rant completely misses the point Reagan was trying to make in all other respects.  In more instances than not government is the problem, not the solution.

Immigration — The left's recruiting tool and deceptive marketing ploy.  Leftist Elizabeth Warren described her border visit where she experienced mothers whose children were separated from them after crossing the border.  Of course her statement resonated with disgust by those with more compassionate hearts as she started off talking about the Molly Tibbetts murder and segued into her immigration mantra.  Maybe if Molly had been of Native American Indian descent instead of white, Warren might have cared more?

Is Careless Talk About Socialism How We Get President Elizabeth Warren?  How we "got Trump" is still a popular subject almost two years after the 2016 election, not least because the left continues to behave in ways that contributed to his upset win.  There's a lesson in their behavior for conservatives interested in avoiding a future discussion about how we "got Elizabeth Warren" (or someone similar).  Oddly, the lesson begins with a tweet from Washington Post reporter Dave Weigel, who pointed out conservatives may have inadvertently watered down the term socialism, by using it too broadly, and may now suffer the consequences as some Democrats start pushing full-blown socialist policies.

What part of 'illegal' does Liz Warren not grasp?  While the ruthless slaying of 20-year-old Iowa coed Mollie Tibbetts by an allegedly illegal immigrant was forcing horrified Americans to again contemplate the importance of vetting who we allow into this country, as Kate Steinle's killing did three summers ago, our ambitious senator rode the coattails of the tragedy to resume her badmouthing of the White House.  "I'm sorry for the family," she condescendingly allowed before immediately transitioning to a mawkish account of pathos at our border.  "I went down and saw where children had been taken away from their mothers," she said.  "We need immigration laws that focus on people who pose a real threat; I don't think mamas and babies are the place that we should be spending our resources.  Separating a mama from her baby does not make this country safer."  That begs a question:  Senator, what part of "illegal" don't you understand?

Elizabeth Warren takes wrong side.  It is no secret that there is no ideology more dangerous for women and children than progressivism and this week Sen. Liz Warren confirmed it.  Warren — viewed as a likely 2020 Democratic presidential contender — was asked on CNN's "New Day" about toughening immigration laws after 20-year-old Iowa college student Mollie Tibbetts' brutal murder.  An alleged illegal immigrant has been arrested.  "I'm so sorry for the family and I know this is hard, not only for the family but for the people in her community, the people throughout Iowa," Warren said about Tibbetts.  "But, one of the things we have to remember is we need an immigration system that is effective, that focuses on where real problems are."  Warren then took a left turn off the subject and complained about border security.

Elizabeth Warren calls for family separation fix in response to murder of Mollie Tibbetts.  Senator Elizabeth Warren called for a solution to family separation on Wednesday in response to the news Mollie Tibbett's suspected murderer is an illegal immigrant from Mexico.  During an interview on CNN's "New Day," Ms. Warren offered her condolences to the Tibbetts family, and then quickly pivoted to the practice of separating minors from their parents when they are caught entering the U.S. illegally.  "I'm so sorry for the family here," she said.  "But one of the things we need to remember here is that we need an immigration system that is effective.  That focuses on where real problems are."

The Editor says...
I would say the murder scenes are where the real problems are.  And there are more than a few.

Elizabeth Warren is asked about Mollie Tibbetts — so she starts moaning about harsh treatment of illegals.  No one is going to argue that our immigration system is perfect.  Literally everyone agrees that it needs some kind of an overhaul.  This disagreement comes when you ask what we should do.  For some of us, the fix is a merit-based system, and end to lotteries and chain migration, and massively improved border security.  For others, it means open borders, catch-and-release, and 'the honor system.'  That said, most of us can put aside our talking points when we hear about the brutal murder of Mollie Tibbetts at the hands of an illegal immigrant.  Most of us would not go on TV, pay a split second of lip service to her family's grief, and then launch into a diatribe about how poorly our country treats people who shouldn't have crossed the border.  Then again, most of us have a shred of compassion and we're capable of genuine empathy.  Elizabeth Warren is not most of us.

Senator Elizabeth Warren Made A Lot Of Money Last Year.  Senator Elizabeth Warren has routinely campaigned on redistributing wealth and counts herself as a champion of the "99%" of Americans who aren't millionaires.  But according to financial records obtained by MassLive, Warren is solidly within the 1%.  In 2017, Warren and her husband, a Harvard University professor, hauled in nearly $1 million in adjusted gross income.  Warren was the moneymaker, though her husband claims to have earned around $430,379.  The numbers aren't much of a surprise.  Warren is believed to have a net worth somewhere in the ballpark of $7 million to $10 million [...]

Elizabeth Warren dismisses illegal's murder of Mollie Tibbetts, says 'real problems' are family separations.  Sen. Elizabeth Warren, brimming with big ambitions about being the "first female president" and currently the Democratic frontrunner for 2020, has really stepped in it for the coming kickoff in Iowa.  Commenting on the totally preventable murder of 20-year-old Mollie Tibbetts by an illegal alien who should have been thrown out years ago, the Massachusetts Democrat decided we were all making a big deal out of a nothingburger, so she would put it all in perspective for us: [...] It not only shows how unsavvy she is about her own political interests, but also shows how callous the left is with regard to the concerns of ordinary Americans and their need for answers on why illegals are here.

Elizabeth Warren To Mollie Tibbetts' Family:  You Need To Focus On 'Real Problems' Like Immigrant Family Separations.  Democratic Sen. Elizabeth Warren said Wednesday she's "sorry" Mollie Tibbetts is dead, but urged her family and friends to remember to focus on the "real problems" at the border, where parents are being temporarily separated from their children.  An illegal immigrant has been charged with murdering Tibbetts, a 20-year-old University of Iowa student recently found dead in a cornfield.  Republicans have called for a stronger immigration system that might have prevented this crime.

Economist: Liz Warren's Corporate Charter Bill Would Bring Venezuela's Socialism to the U.S..  Last week, Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.), one of the leading contenders for the 2020 Democratic nomination to face Donald Trump, sponsored a new bill that would shake up the economy on socialist lines.  A Fox News economist responded to this horrible idea by essentially asking, "Have you even heard of Venezuela?"  "Venezuela is a good example of what we should not be doing," Stuart Varney, a British-American economic consultant who graduated from the London School of Economics and hosts the Fox News show "Varney & Co.," said on "Fox & Friends" Monday morning [8/20/2018].  He then tied Venezuela's crisis to Sen. Elizabeth Warren's new bill.

Sen. Warren's Plan To 'Fix' Capitalism Would Destroy Trillions In Market Value.  If Elizabeth Warren had her way, hundreds of the largest U.S. companies would have to get permission from the federal government to operate.  Warren calls it the "Accountable Capitalism Act."  A better label would be the "Capitalism Destruction Act," which is why even some liberals are balking at her radical plan.

Elizabeth Warren's Batty Plan to Nationalize Everything.  Senator Elizabeth Warren of Massachusetts has one-upped socialists Bernie Sanders and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez:  She proposes to nationalize every major business in the United States of America.  If successful, it would constitute the largest seizure of private property in human history.  Warren's proposal is dishonestly called the "Accountable Capitalism Act."  Accountable to whom? you might ask.  That's a reasonable question.  The answer is — as it always is — accountable to politicians, who desire to put the assets and productivity of private businesses under political discipline for their own selfish ends.  It is remarkable that people who are most keenly attuned to the self-interest of CEOs and shareholders and the ways in which that self-interest influences their decisions apparently believe that members of the House, senators, presidents, regulators, Cabinet secretaries, and agency chiefs somehow are liberated from self-interest when they take office through some kind of miracle of transcendence.

Elizabeth Warren wants to weaponize and federalize corporations for social justice activism.  Sen. Elizabeth Warren hates capitalism and has never made an effort to hide it.  Now she's taken that hatred a step further and introduced a bill (pdf.) that would literally nationalize all the things.  The government must step in and tell CEOs how to run their companies.  Warren penned an op-ed in The Wall Street Journal about her "Accountable Capitalism Act" to sell it to the public.  She gushes over how the bill would help workers and give more power to them.

Police 'Slapped In The Face' By Elizabeth Warren's Racism Claim, Yarmouth Chief Says.  Yarmouth Police Chief Frank Frederickson said statements made by Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren calling the American criminal justice system racist are "disrespectful and divisive."  Warren made the remarks while speaking at Dillard University in New Orleans last week.  "The hard truth about our criminal justice system:  It's racist ... I mean front to back," Warren said.

Elizabeth Warren snubbed in 'first Native American congresswoman' media coverage.  Two Democratic candidates are each poised to become the first Native American woman elected to Congress, according to the media consensus, which has prompted the question:  What about Sen. Elizabeth Warren?  Democrat Sharice Davids, a member of the Ho-Chunk Nation, won her House primary race Tuesday in Kansas, prompting the Kansas City Star and others to report that she would be "the first Native American woman elected to Congress" if she prevails in November.  The same has been said of Deb Haaland, a member of the Pueblo of Laguna, who captured in June the Democratic nomination for the New Mexico congressional seat being vacated by Rep. Michelle Lujan Grisham, who's running for governor.

Elizabeth Warren Really Sounds Like She's Running in 2020.  Netroots Nation is underway this weekend.  It's the annual gathering of liberals, leftists, and activist Democrats started by DailyKos founder Markos Moulitsas, and it's pretty wacky.  I've been to a few, and they're incredibly revealing.  Like how desperately they wish and hope for Senator Elizabeth Warren to run for president, for example.  Speculation on a 2020 run for Elizabeth Warren is not new.  It's come up many times already in press reports and on MSNBC talk shows and in every fiber of Rachel Maddow's being before now.  The Netroots don't have a monopoly on it.  But they want it bad.

Elizabeth Warren Hints at Possible 2020 Run.  During her Friday afternoon keynote address at Netroots Nation, Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) seemingly hinted at the possibility that she could run for president in 2020.  "We believe that in America every family deserves a fighting chance, and we're ready to fight as hard as it takes, as long as it takes, to deliver on that promise," Warren said to the crowd at the annual liberal confab.

Elizabeth Warren says the criminal justice system is 'racist' from 'front to back'.  Potential Democratic presidential candidate Elizabeth Warren has a message about the U.S. criminal justice system.

The Editor says...
The article goes on to say Senator Warren was "[s]peaking to a historically black college," which means, in all likelihood, that it's an all-black college.  Apparently the purpose of her speech was to inflame the listeners' fears and then take advantage of those fears to advance her own position.  And that's not racist?

Dem Candidate Upstages Liz Warren: 'If Elected, I'll Be the First Native American Woman in Congress'.  Debra Haaland, a Democrat activist and tribal administrator running in New Mexico's first district, told Netroots Nation on Friday [8/3/2018] that if elected, she would be the "first Native American," elected to Congress.  Haaland made the comment before Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA), who has been accused of fabricating her Native American heritage[,] took the stage at the progressive political conference.

Elizabeth Warren stands by call to overturn income tax cuts.  Despite the recent boost in the economy, U.S. Sen. Elizabeth Warren isn't budging on her position to increase taxes.  "Let's be clear, the Republicans just gave away a trillion and a half dollars in tax cuts to billionaires and giant corporations," Warren told the Herald yesterday [7/28/2018].  "Those tax decisions, they're not about numbers, they're about values.  They're about who you believe the government should work for."

Fake Indian Elizabeth Warren Suggests 50% Democrat Tax Rates.  Thanks to President Trump's tax cuts and reforms 90% of American wage earners have a higher take-home pay this year.  Over 3 million working Americans have received Trump tax cut bonuses as a result of the Trump tax reform law.  But fake Elizabeth Warren wants to take that all away.

Liz Warren to join tribe of losers.  One thing that the Democrats can do to assure Donald Trump's re-election in 2020: Nominate somebody from Massachusetts.  Virginia used to be called the Mother of Presidents.  Massachusetts is the Mother of Presidential Losers. [...] What is it with the national Democrats' fascination with Massachusetts?  Look at the record:  Ted Kennedy, Mike Dukakis, Paul Tsongas, John Kerry.  Fool me once shame on you, fool me four times, five times ... what's up with that?

Geoff Diehl demands Liz Warren's stance on noncitizen voting rights.  Elizabeth Warren's opponents [sic] is calling on the state's senior senator to take a position on whether she wants illegal immigrants to be able to vote.  "We now need to know whether ... she will push for the extreme radical idea of allowing illegal immigrants to vote in our elections," state Rep. Geoff Diehl said yesterday.

Indian Opponent of Senator Elizabeth Warren Punched in Face By Violent, Racist Leftist.  An opponent of Sen. Elizabeth "Pocahontas" Warren (D-MA) was punched in the face by one of her supporters at a rally this afternoon.  Dr. Shiva Ayyadurai, a PhD from MIT and the inventor of email, was counter-protesting a Warren rally when one of he supporters crossed the street, and pushed Ayyadurai's bullhorn into his face, knocking him back.  The violent leftist was quickly apprehended by police.

Lib media try to make Liz Warren the fresh young face for 2020.  [New York Magazine] just published a 7,200-word opus that reads like a deranged love letter to the American Native senator from Massachusetts, seeking to turn an old, wrinkled leftist with even older, more wrinkled leftist ideas into the fresh young face for America in 2020.  So you don't have to read the article for yourself, I have summarized the lowlights:  [#1] The article opens with a giant photo of Elizabeth Warren's geriatric fist raised proudly into the air.  Every tendon and ligament is tautly on display.  [#2] As if realizing that age (currently 69) could be a vulnerability to Warren, the article shows her running, partially in midair, as if this were a photo shoot for the pilot of The Bionic Woman: 40 Years Later.

Elizabeth Warren's claim on number of medical bankruptcies [was] greatly overstated, study shows.  Matthew Notowidigdo, an associate professor of economics at Northwestern University, and fellow researchers looked at the rate of first-time health emergencies and resulting debt levels for patients.  The result:  About 4 percent of insured patients and 6 percent of uninsured patients ended up filing for bankruptcy.  That was a far cry from the claim advanced in a 2009 study by Ms. Warren and internal physician Dr. David Himmelstein that over 60 percent of bankruptcies in the U.S. were caused by extreme medical debt.  Ms. Warren at the time was one of the country's best-known bankruptcy law specialists.

'Fake Pocahontas' Warren Sends Up Smoke Signals on Any New EPA Chief.  This past week, President Trump held a campaign rally in Montana for the Republican running against Jon Tester who spread vicious stories about Trump's doctor who was nominated to lead the VA.  He had to resign over the false rumors.  During the rally, the President jokingly offered a million dollars to Elizabeth Warren if she would take a DNA test to prove her so-called Native-American heritage.  It is a claim she has used so well to get ahead.  After the rally, NBC embarrassingly tried to defend her with an obviously deceptive report.  NBC 'News' no longer even tries to pretend they're reporting honestly.  They said DNA tests can't qualify for tribal citizenship.  No one asked for Warren's proof of tribal membership.  One must wonder who came up with that argument.

Leftist Gloria Allred Threatens the President, Warns "Hands Off" Elizabeth Warren.  The Democrat activist attorney made the comments after the President referenced Elizabeth Warren's ridiculous claims about being a Native-American as one can see from her "high cheekbones".

A religious litmus test:
Elizabeth Warren:  EPA Administrator Must Believe in Climate Change.  Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) said on Thursday [7/5/2018] following President Donald Trump's tweet announcing that Scott Pruitt was stepping down as administrator of the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) that anyone who doesn't believe in climate change should not head the agency.

Fake Indian Elizabeth Warren Responds to Trump's DNA Test Challenge.  President Donald Trump joked about fake Indian Elizabeth "Pocahontas" Warren Thursday night in Montana.  President Trump apologized to the real Pocahontas but not to the fake one.

Fauxahontas Warren gets another dunk in the barrel from Trump.  In fine form and having lots of fun, President Trump has offered Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) a million dollars to take a DNA test and prove to everyone that she is as Indian as she says she is. [...] Warren, who doesn't look as though she has a drop of American Indian blood, and is often accused of making the fake Indian claim to game the system for university professorship promotions over better qualified candidates, ought to jump at such a chance.  After all, what better way to make Trump look like [a fool], which is the Main Democratic Objective these days, than to come back with a DNA test showing unmistakable Native American genetics to prove heritage?

Warren joins calls to get rid of ICE.  Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) on Saturday [6/30/3018] joined calls from the left to get rid of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), saying it should be replaced with something new.  "The president's deeply immoral actions have made it obvious we need to rebuild our immigration system from top to bottom starting by replacing ICE with something that reflects our morality and that works," Warren said during a rally in Boston.

Barking mad and proud of it.  The world, which in truth did not have far to go, has finally gone bananas.  Elizabeth Warren, the erratic Democratic senator from Massachusetts who thinks she will be elected chief of the tribe in the year 2020, says it's the president of the United States who "is taking America to a dark and ugly place."  But Pocahontas is too late.  America and the world are already there.

Elizabeth Warren lives 'every day filled with terror' at midterms going Trump's ways.  Sen. Elizabeth Warren says her life has become a round-the-clock nightmare due to the prospect of Democrats botching the midterm elections.  A conversation with MSNBC's Rachel Maddow revealed the perpetual "terror" the Massachusetts lawmaker experiences as voters prepare to go to the polls in November.  Mrs. Warren admitted her fears Thursday evening when confronted with a scenario in which Democrats fail to capture control of either chamber of Congress.

Elizabeth Warren Boldly Pledges to Never Take Money from a Group that Has Never Donated to Her.  Sen. Elizabeth Warren, the Native American* Democrat from Massachusetts, has boldly pledged to refuse to accept donations from the National Rifle Association.  Which really does not change anything because, according to OpenSecrets.org, the NRA has never donated to Sen. Warren in the first place.  Still, Sen. Warren is being praised for this decision announced via NowthisNews.com in which she proudly proclaims, "It's time we strip the NRA of its stranglehold over our children's lives."  She is technically the first Senator to refuse to accept NRA money.

Liz Warren takes up case of Indian casino...and its Malaysian sponsors with a history of big donations.  Fake Indian and harrumphing gambling opponent Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) has taken up a rather odd cause:  advocating for a brand-new Indian casino in her home state of Massachusetts. [...] Supposedly, Granny Warren cast aside her intense Women's Christian Temperance Union-style moral scruples against the evils of Demon Gambling, because, well, Indians.  Liz says she's an Indian, and, well, Indians.  She'd do anything to help her fellow Indians.

'Real Indian' running against Sen. Elizabeth Warren sues after city tells him to stop calling her 'Fake Indian'.  A self-described "real Indian" who is running against Mass.  Democratic Sen. Elizabeth Warren is suing after city officials demanded he take down his signs calling her a "fake Indian."  The upstart independent Senate challenger, Shiva Ayyadurai, on Sunday filed a federal lawsuit alleging that the demand from the city of Cambridge violates his constitutional free speech rights, according to The Washington Times.

Did Elizabeth Warren Finally Eliminate Herself From POTUS Contention?  This particular parlor game was already getting old more than a year ago but apparently, we may be stuck playing it for at least another year.  Roughly one month ago we saw Massachusettes Senator Elizabeth Warren slyly dodging questions about a 2020 presidential run.  At the time I noted how her answers weren't really answers at all and committed her to nothing.  They were all carefully crafted in the present tense with no assurances that current conditions couldn't change at any time without notice.  That's why I was rather surprised to see a headline from Matt Stout in the Boston Globe yesterday which seemed to assert that Warren had made up her mind.  She was going to serve out her full term in the Senate if she wins reelection this year.  So, that's all we need to know, right?  Well... let's take a look at what she really said. [...]

Mick Mulvaney says it's Elizabeth Warren's own fault he doesn't have to answer her questions.  Acting Consumer Financial Protection Bureau director Mick Mulvaney has told Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., that he doesn't plan on responding to her questions about the agency, and said it's her fault that he is not required to answer.  Mulvaney, a conservative who was an outspoken critic of the bureau during his time as a congressman, told Warren in a letter sent Wednesday that the structure of the agency, which she helped design, shields him from accountability.  "I encourage you to consider the possibility that the frustration you are experiencing now, and that which I had a few years back, are both inevitable consequences of the fact that the Dodd-Frank... Act insulates the Bureau from virtually any accountability to the American people through their elected representatives," Mulvaney wrote.

Elizabeth Warren is a Fraud.  No, I'm not talking about her Indian thing, although there is that.  I'm talking about her study more than a decade ago on the causes of bankruptcy.  It purported to show that medical bills cause about half of bankruptcies.  The purpose of the study was, at least in part, to fuel the drive for single-payer health insurance.  Indeed, two of the co-authors belonged to the group Physicians for a National Health Program that advocates for single-payer.  Our friend Gail Heriot pointed to major flaws in the study.  She noted that the study actually analyzed medically-caused bankruptcies, not bankruptcies caused by medical bills.

Elizabeth Warren, Sally Hemings and DNA tests.  Massachusetts Democrat Elizabeth Warren recently faced awkward interviews asking why she won't take a DNA test to determine whether her claim to have native American ancestry is legitimate. [...] Warren, in interviews on FOX News Sunday and with CNN's Chuck Todd, dodged the DNA test question by talking at length about her parents in an emotional pitch, claiming her mother had Indian blood, and said "I know who I am and no one is ever gonna take that away."  Senator Warren also asserts that her claim to native American blood had nothing to do with her career success, despite Harvard Law School listing Warren as a member of its minority group after the American Association of Law Schools directory described her as a "minority" from 1984 to 1995.

The Decline and Fall of Elizabeth Warren.  The Trump era has been tough on Senator Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.), and no one has been tougher on her than President Trump himself, with his references to her as "Pocahontas."  With the nickname, the president is playing brass-knuckles politics to remind voters of her undocumented claim to Cherokee Indian heritage.  To be politically correct, Warren says she is "part Native American" through her mother's side of the family.  Warren says she'll fight back against Trump.

The Confederate Mind.  Senator Elizabeth Warren has doubled down on her insistence that she is Native American.  In her past incarnations, she probably used that yarn in hopes of helping her win a law professorship at Harvard, which touted her as the law school's first indigenous-American professor (and others apparently referenced her as Harvard Law's "first woman of color").  She has refused to back down (and also refused to take a DNA test), even after Native American genealogists disputed her claim.  But what if indeed the pink and blond Warren were found to have 1/32nd or even 1/16th Native American "blood"?  Why would that artifact magically make her "Indian," much less a victim of something or someone, or at least outfitted with a minority cachet?

It's been 4 years, Liz Warren.  Take a DNA test.  So the fake Indian has been stonewalling for years.  I'm through waiting for the fake Indian, although I think we all believe, as the Berkshire Eagle suggested, that she probably already has taken the test, and, uh, not gotten the results she was hoping for.

Cherokee genealogist slams Elizabeth Warren's ancestry claims as 'ludicrous'.  A Cherokee genealogist on Wednesday [3/14/2018] dismissed Sen. Elizabeth Warren's claims of Indian ancestry as "ludicrous," arguing that the Massachusetts Democrat "has no respect for true Native Americans."  Twila Barnes, who has done extensive research into Ms. Warren's family tree, added that the high-profile progressive leader has angered some Native Americans by appearing to leverage her dubious heritage to advance her career.

Is Elizabeth Warren Native American?  Depends what the meaning of 'is' is.  Let's say you're running for office and in one campaign speech, you claim to be a certified lawn sprinkler technician.  So, your opponent challenges you to take the Comprehensive Lawn Sprinkler Technician Certification (CLSTC) test, just, you know, to prove it.  And you say, "Nah.  I know who I am."  Well, chances are you'd be labeled a liar, lose the election — and maybe even be run out of town on a rail.  But that's pretty much what Sen. Elizabeth Warren is doing.

Elizabeth Warren's story of racist grandparents disputed by Cherokee genealogist.  Sen. Elizabeth Warren sought Sunday to bolster her shaky claims of Cherokee ancestry with the story of how her racist grandparents drove her parents to elope.  But Cherokee genealogist Twila Barnes says that account has its own credibility issues.  Ms. Barnes, who said her research into Ms. Warren's family found "no evidence" of Native American ancestry, has challenged key elements of the senator's tale of how her parents, Pauline Reed and Donald Herring, defied his parents by running off to marry.

Elizabeth Warren refuses DNA test to prove Native American heritage.  Sen. Elizabeth Warren batted down calls for her to take a DNA test to prove her Native American heritage in an interview that aired Sunday [3/11/2018].  "I know who I am.  And never used it for anything.  Never got any benefit from it anywhere," Warren said of her ancestry on NBC's "Meet the Press."  The Massachusetts Democrat has been under increased pressure to provide evidence of her Native American roots, with President Trump repeatedly mocking her as "Pocahontas" as recently as Saturday.

Sen. Warren says she isn't running for president in 2020.  Sen. Elizabeth Warren says she isn't running for president in 2020.  "I am not running for president in 2020," Warren told CNN's Jim Acosta on Saturday [3/10/2018].  Warren, a Massachusetts Democrat and staunch critic of President Donald Trump, made the statement in an interview for CNN's "State of the Union."

Warren must resolve debate on heritage.  Elizabeth Warren, the senior U.S. senator from Massachusetts, has attained membership in that small club of congressional figures who have garnered national recognition.  To her admirers, she is a tireless champion for consumer rights, banking reform and socially liberal issues who has a plausible shot at winning the presidency.  To her detractors, she is a convenient lightning rod who rivals House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi as the liberal that conservatives most love to vilify in their fundraising mailouts.

GOP, Dem Senators Look To Rewrite Liz Warren's History.  Dodd-Frank was originally intended to increase transparency by implementing a consistent set of regulations aimed at closing loopholes and making firms accountable for their own mistakes.  The bill attempted to shift the burden of major financial mistakes from taxpayers to market participants, ensuring those who partake in risky investment practices would bear the financial burden of their mistakes.  Dodd-Frank promised to "end too big to fail" and "promote financial stability."  Despite the act's intentions, large banking institutions have grown dramatically since the passage of Dodd-Frank, and small community banks have incurred serious losses trying to keep up.  Crippling regulations saddled smaller banks, forcing American consumers to market with fewer investment vehicles and greater costs.

Guess Who Wrote An Exuberant Op-Ed For the NY Times Celebrating Hillary's Election That Never Ran?  On November 9, 2016, the day after the presidential election, an op-ed celebrating Hillary Clinton's election was supposed to run in The New York Times.  It never made it.  Who was so eager to jump on the Hillary bandwagon to make sure she kept her name in the papers?  Elizabeth Warren.

Science can resolve Liz Warren's Indian mystery.  Sen. Elizabeth Warren is doubling down on her claims to Native American ancestry — and on her outrage.  She recently pointed to the Oval Office portrait of President Andrew Jackson as "offensive" because it honors "a man who did his best to wipe out Native people."  Funny:  Just three years ago, Warren was the keynote speaker at a 2015 Jefferson-Jackson Day dinner, such events being commonplace for the party that Jackson founded.  The blond-haired, blue-eyed Massachusetts Democrat seems to think that going on the offensive is her best strategy for answering President Trump's "Pocahontas" taunts, which refer to the "Fauxcahontas" charges she's faced since her first run for the Senate.

Warren Neglected Harvard Native American Group As Faculty Member.  Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D., Mass.) was invited at least three times to speak with Native American students at Harvard Law School while she was a faculty member, but she never accepted, according to a former president of a Native American student group.  Dr. Gavin Clarkson, a citizen of the Choctaw Nation who received both a doctorate and a law degree from Harvard while Warren was a professor, says he "personally invited" her three times to visit with Harvard's Native American Law Student Association (NALSA), which he headed while attaining his dual degree.  Warren, who had identified as a minority in law professor directories and was touted by Harvard as a Native American hire, never accepted his invites.

Elizabeth Warren trots out claim on familiar trail.  With an eye toward 2020, Sen. Elizabeth Warren yesterday tried to head off the ongoing controversy surrounding her claim of Native American ancestry instead of running from it — the way she did when the Herald first pressed her on the issue in 2012.  But let's be clear — the presidential campaign trail-ready speech she delivered before the National Congress of American Indians contained nothing new.  In fact, much of it is straight from her 2012 playbook.

Elizabeth Warren disingenuously doubles down defending her fake Indian heritage claims.  President Trump's needling of Senator Elizabeth Warren's unsupported claim to Native American ancestry has hit its mark.  Yesterday, the Massachusetts senator made an unannounced appearance before the National Congress of American Indians, the oldest national organization that claims to represent the interests of Native Americans, and repeated her previously debunked claims in a particularly offensive manner.

Cherokee Woman Slams Elizabeth Warren:  Stop Claiming Our Heritage.  People are finally paying attention to Elizabeth Warren's often repeated lie about being a Native American.  In fact, a real Cherokee woman appeared on Watters' World this weekend and spoke very frankly on the topic.  She is not happy about it.

'Pocahontas' Problem:  Boston Globe Exposes Festering Fallout From Warren's Heritage Hoax.  We've never missed a chance to cover Sen. Elizabeth Warren's struggles over her shameless cultural appropriation scandal, wherein she baselessly claimed Native American ancestry for professional gain — the polar opposite of "checking" her "white privilege," as the Social Justice Warrior ethos requires.  Initially, nearly all of the blowback from her cynical, self-serving hoax was generated on the political Right, with most leftists giving her a pass for her identity politics sins, or simply ignoring them.

The Democratic Party of Today.  As the Democrats grow increasingly ravenous to have a shot at the presidency of President Donald Trump they are beginning to train their guns on the frontrunners for the nomination.  That means they are contemplating finishing off Senator Elizabeth Warren long before 2020.  They are taking aim at her claim to being an Indian maiden, though Donald Trump has the best line on her.  He calls Senator Warren Pocahontas.  If she ever gets to debate him, that ought to be the end of our modern-day Sitting Bull.  Poof — by then the President ought to be able to calculate how much money she, in her false claim, has bilked various universities and government organizations.  He ought to be able to nail the universities — most recently Harvard State University — for their cheap claim to having filled an affirmative action slot with Pocahontas.  And he ought to be able to accuse Senator Warren of professional fraud.  I think it will be that easy to blow her away.

Elizabeth Warren's Native American problem goes beyond politics.  There's a ghost haunting Elizabeth Warren as she ramps up for a possible 2020 presidential bid and a reelection campaign in Massachusetts this year:  her enduring and undocumented claims of Native American ancestry.  Warren says now, as she has from the first days of her public life, that she based her assertions on family lore, on her reasonable trust in what she was told about her ancestry as a child.  "I know who I am," she said in a recent interview with the Globe.

Elizabeth Warren Trumps King day with prez-bashing.  On a day meant to honor Martin Luther King Jr., U.S. Sen. Elizabeth Warren stole the spotlight instead, tearing into President Trump in a fiery speech that should generate more fuel for her national ambitions.  Warren's charge that Trump is a "racist bully" came as her campaign released new eye-popping numbers showing she's coming into her 2018 re-election campaign with more than $14 million in the bank.

Sen. Elizabeth Warren Faces Criticism over 'Slut-Shaming' Tweet.  Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) faced criticism for saying that President Donald Trump "slut-shamed" Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand (D-NY) with a non-sexual insult, Tuesday [12/12/2017].  After President Donald Trump made a post on Twitter claiming that Sen. Gillibrand "would do anything" for campaign contributions, Sen. Warren made her own post accusing Trump of "slut-shaming."

Cherokee Woman Slams Warren For Using 'Racist Stereotypes' To Claim She's Native American.  A Cherokee woman criticized Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren for delving into "racist stereotypes" to defend her claims that she has Native American heritage.  Rebecca Nagle, a mixed woman of Cherokee heritage, slammed Warren for doubling down on her alleged Cherokee background after President Donald Trump referred to her as "Pocahontas" at a ceremony earlier this week in a Wednesday op-ed for Think Progress.

Washington Redskin.  The Massachusetts Democrat is Indian in the sense of checking the "Are you Native American?" box on the Association of American Law Schools form, which Elizabeth Warren did for much of her adult life.  According to her, she's part Cherokee and part Delaware. [...] How does she know she's a Cherokee maiden?  Well, she cites her grandfather's "high cheekbones," and says the Indian stuff is part of her family "lore."  Which was evidently good enough for Harvard Lore School when they were looking to rack up a few affirmative-action credits.

We Got a Vast, Unaccountable, Unconstitutional Agency Because Elizabeth Warren Compared Mortgages to Toasters.  Sixteen hundred bureaucrats with the power to charge billions in fines, with a $600 million budget outside of the congressional appropriations process, and all because Elizabeth Warren compared mortgages to toasters.  "Of all the ideas that get published in ... journals like that, not so many make it into law," Warren boasted in 2011, at the launch of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau.  She was referring to her essay "Unsafe At Any Rate," published by the "lefty" Democracy Journal in 2007, which was used as the impetus for the Obama administration to establish the CFPB.  Warren's reasoning:  If people are too stupid that they would buy a toaster that could blow up their house, then they certainly aren't smart enough to read the fine print on a mortgage.  Using a toaster as an analogy wasn't just a cute way for the then-Harvard law professor to begin her 5,000-word "manifesto" proposing her "new regulatory regime."  No, the toaster was the thesis.

Media Tolerate Lies ... When They Come From Elizabeth Warren.  The network news divisions boast about how much they care about the truth and then rage against President Trump when he calls them makers of "fake news."  But when it comes to the politicians they adore, especially those they wish would run for president, the truth takes a back seat.

Elizabeth Warren's Pocahontas Pickle.  The president first deemed Sen. Elizabeth Warren of Massachusetts "Pocahontas" in May of 2016.  After Trump had become the presumptive Republican presidential nominee, Warren began coming at him hard on Twitter, vowing to battle his "toxic stew of hatred & insecurity."  Never allowing an attack to go unanswered, Trump responded in kind on his favorite social media platform, blasting her "phony Native American heritage."  When The New York Times columnist Maureen Dowd phoned Trump to ask him if Republicans were chafing at his Twitter-feud with Warren at a time he should be presenting a unifying posture, he replied, "You mean Pocahontas?," thus producing another memorable caricature.

Trump's Pocahontas trap.  I think President Trump is trying to get Elizabeth Warren nominated, or at least keep her in the spotlight.  It is a trap for the Democrats and progressivism.  And it is working.  The conventional wisdom of D.C. politics has Elizabeth Warren as the big winner following the president's use of his nickname for her, Pocahontas, during a ceremony honoring the Navajo Code Talkers of World War II.  But the conventional wisdom has consistently been wrong about Donald Trump's effectiveness in reaching the voters he needs to win his victories.

The Tall Tale Of Sen. Warren's Native American Ancestry Explained. 
  [#1]   Elizabeth Warren lied about her ancestry for years.
  [#2]   She has never told the whole story as to why she listed herself as a Native American for nine years (perhaps because she used it to get ahead at law schools that were desperate for minority professor representation at the time.)
  [#3]   In 2012, she was forced to backtrack on multiple explanations for why she did it, and to this day still hasn't provided a clear answer as to what exactly happened.
  [#4]   She has never provided any documentation proving she is a Native American (and most independent analysis also says there is no proof).

Calling Pence A Liar While Protecting Warren Is Why People Hate Media.  Earlier this week, Donald Trump made a joke at an event honoring the great World War II Navajo Code Talkers.  He poked fun at Sen. Elizabeth Warren, who used to claim to be Cherokee despite not having any evidence to substantiate the claim.  Democrats and their media footsoldiers decided it's racist to mock someone for falsely claiming to be Native American.  For example, Jim Acosta of CNN wrote:  "WH press sec says 'Pocahontas' is not a racial slur.  (Fact check:  it is.)"  Uh, fact check:  no.  For one thing, as Gabriel Malor said, "No, derogatorily referring to a person who falsely claimed to be a Native American as Pocahontas is not a racial slur.  It demeans no racial or ethnic group."  It definitely demeans women who claim that they're Cherokee sans evidence.

OK, Fake Indian, time to either give up the claim or prove it.  Isn't the left supposed to despise "cultural appropriation?" What greater cultural appropriation could there be than for Elizabeth Warren to have falsely claimed an ethnic heritage in order to win not one, but two tenured Ivy League law professorships she had absolutely no shot of ever getting until she checked the box?  All of the alt-left pajama boys and trust-funders who were hyperventilating about this yesterday, let me ask you a question:  How come Pocahontas won't take a DNA test so that we can find out, once and for all, how much Indian blood she really has, if any?  Why has she refused my multiple generous offers to pay for her DNA test?

Networks Downplay Senator Warren's Lies About Her Heritage.  On Monday [11/27/2017], President Trump caused a stir in the liberal media when he mocked Democratic Massachusetts Senator Elizabeth Warren as "Pocahontas" during an Oval Office event to honor the work of Navajo code talkers during World War II.  The Big Three Networks rushed to claim Trump was whipping around a racial slur, but meanwhile, they brushed over where the moniker came from:  Warren's dubious claims she was of Native-American heritage, which she used to gain an advantage in forwarding her career.

Elizabeth Warren [is] tarnishing [her] image with money deal.  U.S. Sen. Elizabeth Warren is boosting her bulging campaign war chest through a joint fundraising deal with her political action committee and the state party that's funneled nearly $2 million to her re-election bid in just nine months.  It's an arrangement similar to the one Hillary Clinton had with the Democratic National Committee that drew fire from Warren, who said it showed the party's national primary was stacked against Bernie Sanders.  Donors have been cutting five-figure checks to the Elizabeth Warren Action Fund since it launched in January as a joint fundraising committee with her own PAC for a Level Playing Field and the Mass.  Democratic State Committee.  It's transferred more than $1.86 million to her own re-election campaign — or 15 percent of her $11.9 million total haul in 2017 — through an agreement that guarantees her the first $5,400 of any donation, her PAC the next $5,000 and the state party the proceeds thereafter up to $10,000.

Democrats using Texas tragedy to advance agenda.  What kind of demonic soul walks into a church a murders 26 innocent people, including several children, at point-blank range?  What kind of heartless monster instantly seizes on such senseless tragedy to advance a personal political agenda?  Sen. Elizabeth Warren, Massachusetts Democrat, for one.  Authorities identified the killer as a severely deranged and violent reject illegally in possession of guns, but Ms. Warren somehow accused the Republican Party of perpetrating the atrocity.

Elizabeth Warren lied about being sexually harassed Liberal senator shared a fake experience on Meet the Press.  Sen. Elizabeth Warren has just jumped the shark.  The Massachusetts Democrat has been caught lying about being a victim of sexual harassment.  The question is:  Will the GOP hold her accountable?  If they do, this scandal may be too much even for the progressive icon to withstand.  Recently, Warren went on "Meet the Press," claiming she had a "Me Too" story as well — in reference to the #MeToo campaign, which began after the Harvey Weinstein allegations by countless women as a way to give voice to their experiences of sexual assault and harassment.

Elizabeth Warren's 'Me Too' story 'inconsistent' with previous telling: report.  Sen. Elizabeth Warren shared her "Me Too" story on national television this past Sunday, describing a harrowing account of sexual harassment she experienced as a young law professor.  But her recollection of the incident is "inconsistent" with the way she previously told the story, reported the Boston Globe.  Ms. Warren told the same story two decades ago at the memorial service of the senior University of Houston faculty member that she accused of chasing her around a desk.

Watch Elizabeth Warren Get Frazzled Trying To Prove She's Not Part Of The One Percent.  Democratic Sen. Elizabeth Warren of Massachusetts was accused of hypocrisy Wednesday by WRKO radio host Jeff Kuhner for reliably railing against the one percent despite being worth millions of dollars.  Warren, who was at the WRKO studio in Boston for an interview, met Kuhner in the hallway and the situation escalated as Kuhner asked why Warren has built her career haranguing the one percent when she herself is a member of that class.  Warren defended herself, citing humble beginnings as the daughter of a janitor who was able to advance to her current position due purely to the "equality of opportunity" provided by government programs.  [Video clip]

Democrat Warren confronted over her 'One Percent' status.  A Boston radio host called out U.S. Sen. Elizabeth Warren this week for criticizing America's "One Percent," noting that her net worth ranks her among the class she consistently attacks.  "How can you rail against the One Percent, when in a sense you are and live like the One Percent?," Jeff Kuhner asked Warren on Monday [9/25/2017] in the hallway of the WRKO's studio, referring to the class of America's wealthiest people.

Sen. Elizabeth Warren Warns That Trump's Ban on Transgenders in Military 'Makes America Less Safe'.  Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D.-Mass.) says that President Donald Trump's decision to ban transgenders from the U.S. military will "make America less safe."  "President Trump just issued an official memo that insults the courage and sacrifices being made by thousands of transgender troops, and he once again proved that he cares more about extreme ideology than military readiness," Warren said in a statement released on Friday [8/25/2017] after the president sent an official memorandum to the Defense Department to implement the ban.  "The President can pretend this decision is about military effectiveness, but it isn't," said Warren.  "Banning individuals from serving based on gender identity is shameful and wrong — and it makes America less safe."

Elizabeth Warren says she WON'T challenge Trump in 2020.  Senator Elizabeth Warren said Tuesday morning [4/18/2017] that she isn't planning to challenge President Donald Trump for the White House in 2020.  'No,' Warren said flatly on NBC's 'Today' show.  'I am running,' she added — 'in 2018, for senator from Massachusetts.' Warren faces a re-election fight next year.

Elizabeth Warren Uses Legal Loophole to Raise Big Cash.  As she was gearing up for her re-election campaign — and a potential presidential bid — Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) in January quietly set up a joint fundraising committee that allows wealthy donors to write five- and six-figure checks.  As a candidate, Warren can raise a maximum of $5,400 from any individual contributor — $2.700 [sic] in the primary and $2,700 for the general election.  By combining her campaign fund with the Massachusetts Democratic State Committee and her political action committee, PAC for a Level Playing Field, the Elizabeth Warren Action Fund can raise cash in much larger increments.

Wampum Woman Warren strikes it rich, goes for the mother lode.  Elizabeth Warren, the fake pink-and-gold Indian (cripes, just look at her photo!) darling of progressives, has struck it rich again, this time not from house-flipping, affirmative action-whoring, a no-show job at Harvard, or portfolio-sharking, but this time with a Beltway-insider staple, a big-bucks book deal about why she didn't run for president.  With her, it's all about making money doing little or nothing.  That's how she rolls.

Elizabeth Warren answers a question no one has really asked.  An extremely large percentage of America's 326.5 million citizens did not run for president last year.  Only one of us non-candidates, however, decided to write a new book to explain why.  If you're one of the many Americans who hadn't thought to wonder why Elizabeth Warren did not run for president — or don't really care — join the crowd.  Warren's new book about her non-candidacy comes out next week and would-be buyers are not yet lining up.  The book is heavily biographical, which means Warren is definitely running for the presidential nomination of what's left of the Democrat Party in 2020.  First, of course, she needs to win reelection next year in Massachusetts.

Elizabeth Warren Goes Silent on Equal Pay Day After Free Beacon Report.  Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D., Mass.) failed to acknowledge Equal Pay Day for the first time in her Senate career after it was reported on Tuesday that women working in her Senate office earned just 71 percent of what was earned by men.  Warren has used Equal Pay Day, which fell on April 4 this year, in years past as an opportunity to speak out on the gender pay gap.  Last year she took to the Senate floor to call Equal Pay Day a "national day of embarrassment" and pledged to continue her "fight" until the pay gap was erased.  She gave similar statements on Equal Pay Day in 2015, 2014, and 2013, her first year in the Senate.  This year, Warren was the only female Democratic senator who ignored Equal Pay Day entirely, and it was not due to a lack of opportunity.

Friendly Reminder:  Elizabeth Warren is a Clownish Hypocrite.  Quite a headline, I realize, and I won't even mention the screaming conflict between her status as a celebrated Social Justice Warrior and her decision to perpetrate a racial hoax — whether through reckless sloppiness or willful intent — in order to advance her own career.  She was never a Native American, but nevertheless, she persisted in claiming that false origin story.  Until she became a tenured professor at Harvard, that is.  As I've discussed at greater length elsewhere, it turns out that celebrity leftists who violate certain lefty pieties are eligible for waivers to wash away their cultural appropriation and privilege-stealing sins.  But we won't get into all of that right now.  In this post, I'll focus on Sen. Warren's words versus deeds on two other fronts:  Equal pay for women, and judicial filibusters.

Warren Angered that Cabinet Nominee Considers President His Boss.  Sen. Elizabeth Warren attacked President Trump's labor secretary nominee Alexander Acosta after he declined to say whether he would overturn several Obama administration regulations during his first confirmation hearing Wednesday [3/22/2017].  Warren (D., Mass.), a member of the Senate Committee on Health, Education, Labor, & Pensions, asked Acosta whether he would direct the Labor Department to defend new overtime regulations in federal court after an Obama-appointed judge blocked them from going into effect, as well as whether he supported Trump's executive orders affecting safety and financial regulations.

Elizabeth Warren's Female Staffers Made 71% of Male Staffers' Salaries in 2016.  The gender pay gap in Sen. Elizabeth Warren's (D., Mass.) office is nearly 10 percent wider than the national average, meaning women in the Massachusetts Democrat's office will have to wait longer than most women across the country to recognize Equal Pay Day.  Equal Pay Day, created two decades ago by the National Committee on Pay Equity, is scheduled by using the Census Bureau annual unadjusted gender pay gap to determine how far into the next year women would have to work to match annual earnings of men.  Last year's figures, showing that women earned 79.6 percent of what men earned, put Equal Pay Day on Tuesday April 4, more than three months into the calendar year.

No lamenting liberal Liz's fall from grace.  Massachusetts U.S. Sen. Elizabeth Warren is useless, teetering close to the ragged edge of pointless.  Apart from starring roles in childish protests and tough-guy Twitter rants, Warren is making no difference in Washington, D.C., and is no friend to her constituents in Massachusetts.

Warren Changes Media Strategy Amid Low Home-State Poll Numbers.  Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D., Mass.) has changed her media strategy amid low poll numbers in her home state by making herself more available to the press in Massachusetts.  Warren's "creative media-dodging habits are a running joke among her home-state press corps," Politico reported over the weekend.  "Whenever the senator makes a public appearance, Massachusetts reporters know to keep one eye fixed on the exit doors."

Veterans group blasts Elizabeth Warren.  A local veterans' advocacy group is blasting Massachusetts U.S. Sen. Elizabeth Warren and other state Democrats for their support of illegal immigrants, calling it "selfish political theater" and demanding they put veterans' services at the top of their list — or feel the heat.  "We'd like to see our leaders re-examine their priorities, put this at the forefront — if we have to, we'll knock on some doors in D.C.," said John MacDonald of Veterans Assisting Veterans.  "We need to take care of veterans first before we decide to take care of people who are illegally here."

Elizabeth Warren takes a dive.  Massachusetts' very own profile in courage — U.S. Sen. Elizabeth Warren — Thursday voted against the only African-American nominee to Donald Trump's Cabinet, Ben Carson, who was confirmed as secretary of Housing and Urban Development.  The funny thing is that Warren was pretty much OK with voting in favor of the former neurosurgeon back when his nomination was being considered by the Senate Banking Committee — a mere five weeks ago.

Elizabeth Warren's Secrets and Lies.  [T]he CFPB has spent the last five years stonewalling congressional oversight and document requests.  Bipartisan commissions are internally transparent, meaning a restructuring would give even minority Republican commissioners access to confidential CFPB inspector-general reports, employee files, and internal e-mails and documents. Senator Warren's reputation rests largely on the CFPB, and she knows what the bureau is hiding.  She'd like to keep those secrets hidden until her reelection to the Senate in 2018 — and perhaps a bigger race in 2020.

Elizabeth Warren is a grandstanding phony.  Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) was right to invoke Rule 19 against Sen Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) for her personal harangue against her "friend and colleague" Sen. Jeff Sessions (R-Ala.). Dignity is flowing out of Washington and Warren is doing more than her part as she desperately tries to prove she isn't just another tiresome Hillary Clinton.  What a pretentious, grandstanding phony.  Warren is likely running for president in 2020, and she is trying to rally the embittered left and Sen. Bernie Sanders's (I-Vt.) crowd to her side.

Elizabeth Warren Condemns Sessions for Suggesting Wealthy Corporations Should Hire Americans.  During her now-infamous Senate tirade against the confirmation of Attorney General Jeff Sessions, Senator Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) criticized the former Alabama senator because his office suggested in a press release that a wealthy American corporation should hire Americans.  One would think Warren, who has been mocked as "Pocahontas" or "Fauxcahontas" for misrepresenting herself as a Native American to obtain preferential treatment, would be less cavalier toward Americans with serious questions about their own career prospects.

Ted Cruz Is Right about the Democrats and Racism.  Psychiatrists call the phenomena Warren exhibited as transference, the ascribing to others the faults you yourself possess.  Warren attempted to call former Sen. Jeff Sessions a "racist" and, by implication, his party and President Trump as well, on the Senate floor, a severe breech of protocol.  As Sen. Cruz pointed out in his reaction, Sen. Warren and her party had better look in the mirror of history: [...]

Susan Collins defends her vote to silence colleague Elizabeth Warren.  U.S. Sen. Susan Collins, R-Maine, on Wednesday [2/8/2017] defended her vote to uphold a measure to silence Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., during a debate about attorney general nominee Jeff Sessions Tuesday night.  Warren was reading aloud from a letter written by Martin Luther King Jr.'s late widow that was critical of Sessions' behavior toward African-Americans when he was a U.S. attorney in Alabama.  Sessions, who was confirmed to be attorney general Wednesday night, is a Republican U.S. senator from Alabama, and a seldom-used Senate rule that prohibits members from impugning "the motives or integrity of any senator" was invoked to silence Warren.

The Queen Is Dead.  After Mrs. Clinton's humiliating defeat at the hands of Donald Trump, there have been whispers, if not shouts:  "The queen is dead."  Elizabeth Warren is doing her best to take over the position from Mrs. Clinton, and hence her dopey defamation of Jeff Sessions, alongside whom she was perfectly content to serve in the Senate until his nomination as attorney general gave her what every aspiring progressive leader wants most of all:  a white, southern, Christian, male antagonist. [...] but I do not think Warren has quite sealed the deal.  It is important to her that she do so and do so soon, because as anybody who has ever watched her up close doing the actual business of campaigning (as I have) knows, she is a terrible politician: awkward, stiff, humorless, afraid.

Please, Elizabeth Warren, keep talking.  Tuesday night [2/7/2017], Sen. Elizabeth Warren was silenced on the Senate floor by Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell.  Mr. McConnell ordered Ms. Warren to stop talking, saying she impugned the character of a fellow senator, Jeff Sessions — a violation of chamber rules — by reading a letter from Coretta Scott King, the late wife of Martin Luther King Jr., that accused Mr. Sessions of working to intimidate elderly black voters.  It was an unsavory move — to condemn a sitting senator, of whom Ms. Warren has had no qualms with until he was appointed as attorney general.  After her microphone was cut off, Ms. Warren took to Facebook and continued reading the letter.  She then started [a hashtag] on Twitter, got it trending, and then appeared on as many cable talk shows as she could on Wednesday morning to speak about the injustice.

Democrats' empty anti-Trump stunts have made the Senate a circus.  Senate Democrats' exhausting show of all-out war on President Trump's Cabinet picks continues, delaying the confirmation vote for Sen. Jeff Sessions as attorney general until dinnertime Wednesday, and for Rep. Tom Price as health secretary until after midnight.  This gave every senator (who cared to) the chance to read that Corettta Scott King letter — an anti-Sessions slam from 1986 that will change no minds in 2017.  Majority Leader Mitch McConnell was trying to uphold the last vestiges of senatorial courtesy when he stopped Sen. Liz Warren from reading the note into the record.  Sessions, after all, was a sitting senator until his confirmation, and senators traditionally don't trash-talk each other on the floor.  Well, those days are gone.

Warren Breaks Senate Rule, Prohibited From Debating Sessions Nomination.  For the remainder of Tuesday night [2/7/2017] and for most of Wednesday, Massachusetts senator Elizabeth Warren is prohibited from debating on the floor of the Senate.  That's because her Senate colleagues found her guilty of impugning another senator, Jeff Sessions, whose nomination for attorney general is being considered.  With a 52 seat Senate majority and control of the White House, Republicans are now able to confirm Trump cabinet nominees with a 50 vote majority and Democrats are furious.  And while Democrats can't stop nominees unless Republicans defect, they're resorting to the time-honored Senate tactic of parliamentary delay.

Sen. Lindsey Graham: Silencing Sen. Elizabeth Warren 'was long overdue'.  Republican Sen. Lindsey Graham says the silencing of Sen. Elizabeth Warren on the Senate floor Tuesday [2/7/2017] was "long overdue."  The South Carolina senator appeared on the Mike Gallagher Show Wednesday, where he said Warren reading the letter from C oretta Scott King — in which she expressed opposition to Jeff Sessions' nomination to the federal bench in 1986 — was defamatory to Sessions, now an Alabama senator.  The Massachusetts Democrat was ruled to be in violation of Senate rules for impugning another senator.  "The bottom line is, it was long overdue with her," he said.  "I mean, she is clearly running for the nomination in 2020."

Gravy Train Flows Wide And Deep At Elizabeth Warren's Consumer Agency.  Pay is flowing so generously at the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) that hundreds of bureaucrats there receive more than most members of Congress. [...] Speaker of the House Paul Ryan of Wisconsin receives $223,000 per year, but that's less than what 54 CFPB employees are paid.  Another 170 CFPB employees earn more than the secretaries of defense and state, the attorney general and the director of national intelligence.  All cabinet salaries are capped at $199,700, but not at the bureau.

McConnell Reprimands Warren Over Speech Slamming Sessions, Calling It Violation of Senate Rule.  Senator Elizabeth Warren was reprimanded on the Senate floor tonight for a speech she delivered railing against Senate colleague and AG nominee Jeff Sessions.  At issue here was her quoting of incredibly critical words that Ted Kennedy and Coretta Scott King used in the past to oppose Sessions when he was up for a judgeship in the 80s.

Things Keep Getting Worse For Elizabeth Warren.  I wrote here about Elizabeth Warren's unimpressive poll numbers in Massachusetts.  In light of recent developments, those numbers may not have bottomed out.  This week, Sen. Warren, who recently pressed Department of Health and Human Services nominee Tom Price about what she considers possible financial improprieties, is under fire regarding a $1.3 million line of credit from the Bank of America on her Cambridge home.  For two years in a row, the sanctimonious Warren failed to list it on the financial disclosure form all senators complete each year.

Republicans vote to rebuke Elizabeth Warren, saying she impugned Sessions's character.  Senate Republicans passed a party-line rebuke Tuesday night of Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) for a speech opposing attorney general nominee Jeff Sessions, striking down her words for impugning the Alabama senator's character.  In an extraordinarily rare move, Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) interrupted Warren's speech in a near-empty chamber, as debate on Sessions's nomination heads toward a Wednesday evening [2/8/2017] vote, and said that she had breached Senate rules by reading past statements against Sessions from figures such as the late senator Edward M. Kennedy (D-Mass.) and the late Coretta Scott King.

Sen. Liz Warren Refuses to Disavow Madonna's Wish to 'Blow Up the White House'.  Two days after Madonna shared her wish to blow up the White House, Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D.-Mass.) has not come out with a statement condemning the outrageous desire that the pop singer expressed in her address to Saturday's Women's March on Washington's National Mall.

Elizabeth Warren Used Loophole to Avoid Disclosing $1.3M Line of Credit.  A U.S. senator who took advantage of a loophole in ethics laws to avoid disclosing a $1.3 million credit line against her home is now warning that incomplete financial disclosures from cabinet nominees put the country at risk.  Sen. Elizabeth Warren's (D., Mass.) warning came in the Washington Post, where she wrote that "it is critical that each nominee follows basic ethics rules to ensure that they will act for the benefit of all the American people."

Mika Brzezinski Turns on Elizabeth Warren: 'I'm Getting Tired of This Act'.  There was a time when Brzezinski might have been a steadfast supporter of Warren's principled opposition to Trump.  But apparently that time has passed.

Poll shows Warren is no sure bet for re-election next year.  Sen. Elizabeth Warren may not have an easy path to reelection in 2018.  A poll released Monday [1/23/2017] shows that 46 percent of Massachusetts voters think it's time for someone else to have a shot at the Senate.

Just 44 Percent of Massachusetts Voters Say Warren Deserves Reelection.  Massachusetts Democratic senator Elizabeth Warren is a shoo-in for reelection in 2018, right?  Eh, that doesn't look quite like the ironclad lock that some might expect.

Democrats hate entrepreneurism at least as much as they hate capitalism.
Why Are 'Progressives' Fighting Against Uber and Airbnb?  Recently, Sen. Elizabeth Warren, one of the most liberal Democrats around, declared war on start-up companies that are helping middle-class families make ends meet and are providing a great new service to millions of customers.  Why?  Because they challenge the liberal status quo.  In her keynote speech at the Democratic National Convention on Monday, Warren talked about how Democrats are always fighting for the middle class.  "Try to do something, anything, for working people, and you'll have a fight on your hands," she said.  What Warren didn't say is that it's liberals like herself who are often picking the fight.

What A Horrible Country.  Name an ethnic group, and the Democrats have pandered to its grievance.  "The system is rigged" shouted U.S. Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., after recounting her rise from nothing to being a millionaire.  Not too rigged obviously.  Warren also railed against Donald Trump for seeking profit from foreclosed properties, which just so happens to be how she made a nice chunk of her fortune.  The only difference is Trump never pretended to be a minority to get a job.

Endorsing Hillary is the just latest sign that Warren is a fraud.  American politics may have no bigger fraud than Elizabeth "Fauxcahontas" Warren.  So I got a good chuckle from Politico's Thursday [6/9/2016] story saying the Massachusetts Democratic senator had called Donald Trump, among other grade-school taunts, a fraud.  I don't know whether Warren fancies herself the pot or the kettle in this one, but she's definitely a hypocrite.  In fact, while she was preparing to call Trump a fraud, her advisers were leaking to every major press outlet they could find that she was finally going to endorse Hillary Clinton for president, now that she has secured the necessary delegates.  What a profile in courage.  Endorsing Hillary could be the most fraudulent act of Warren's brief political career, since Warren is a less compelling version of Bernie Sanders on economics and even once boasted she essentially "created" Occupy Wall Street.

Woman Who Got Paid $350K to Teach One Class Calls Trump "Greedy".  That's right.  It's Elizabeth Warren, Harvard Law's first blonde "woman of color", auditioning on the campaign trial to be Hillary's V.P. hurling devastating zingers like calling Trump an "insecure money grabber" who is driven by greed.  So does that make Elizabeth Warren a secure money grabber driven by pure altruism?  ["]Harvard Law paid Warren $350,000 to teach a single course.  When Scott Brown brought it up during a debate about student loans, she protested.  'I want to talk about the issues.  Senator Brown wants to launch attacks.'["]  Now Warren wants to launch attacks instead of talking about the issues.

Democrats expect Warren to play peacemaker once primary ends.  Democratic senators expect Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) will soon make moves to mollify restive liberals and unify the Democratic Party behind Hillary Clinton.  Several Democratic senators say they have approached Warren about the role she can play, insisting she is best positioned to mend the schism between the Clinton and Bernie Sanders wings of the party.  Warren has a loyal following among the more liberal Democrats who favor Sanders.  She has told colleagues she will play the role of peacemaker, but not until after the last major round of primaries on June 7.

Phony Elizabeth Warren Listed As Harvard's First "Woman of Color" In 1997 Article.  The Mainstream Media has tried to ignore far-left Democrat Senator Elizabeth Warren's attempt to make herself a minority to allegedly further her then academic career which included a high-paying Harvard teaching gig.  Donald Trump has since made ignoring that story much more difficult as he blasts the lily-white "Pocahontas" Warren for her longtime deception.

Elizabeth Warren Goes To War Against Donald Trump.  When Senator Elizabeth Warren, of Massachusetts, took up the fight against Donald Trump in the last few weeks, it felt a little like that moment in an action movie when the disaffected friend who'd walked out turns up late in the third act, mid-fray, with fresh ammunition and a wink and a grin for her old gang.  With Hillary still pinned down in the primaries, unable to shake off the dogged Bernie Sanders campaign, Warren started a Twitter war with Donald Trump.

The return of Pocahontas.  [Scroll down]  Ms. Warren claims to be a Native American as well (born in Oklahoma), descended, at least in part, from the Delaware and Cherokee tribes.  Her claim is in dispute, however, and the only proof she has produced to back the claim she made in a campaign biography in 2012 is her contribution of two "family recipes" to the Pow Wow Chow Cookbook, published by the Five Civilized Tribes Museum in Muskogee, Okla., in 1984.

Liberals are really good at solving problems we don't have.
Another 'Free' Government Service.  Sen. Elizabeth Warren says taxpayers shouldn't have to pay for tax software.  She has the support of other liberal Democrats.  She has introduced a bill that would require the IRS to make available a "free" online filing option to some taxpayers.  She doesn't mention that taxpayers will have to pay for the development and continuing maintenance of this system through higher taxes.  So it won't be free.  Rather it will be a system the cost of which is hidden in the fine print of the federal budget.  Never mind that TurboTax and other software companies now offers a no-cost option for a majority of taxpayers.  Sen. Warren says TurboTax keeps it secret:  a secret known only to the 3 million people who use it and to millions of others who know about it but choose not to use it.  The IRS website has a direct link to the free software.

Elizabeth Warren Ancestor Rounded Up Cherokees For Trail of Tears.  For over a quarter of a century, Elizabeth Warren has described herself as a Native American.  When recently asked to provide evidence of her ancestry, she pointed to an unsubstantiated claim on an 1894 Oklahoma Territory marriage license application by her great-great grand uncle William J. Crawford that his mother, O.C. Sarah Smith Crawford, Ms. Warren's great-great-great grandmother, was a Cherokee.  After researching her story, it is obvious that her "family lore" is just fiction.

Liz "Hiawatha" Warren Tells Republicans Not to Obstruct Obama.  There's a chance that the GOP-controlled Senate might not put a rubber stamp an eventual Obama nominee to replace Antonin Scalia.  Because of that, Sen. Elizabeth Warren reminded Republicans about an important addendum to the Constitution that was apparently put into place when only Democrats were watching: [...]

Elizabeth Warren Wants The SEC To Help Her Ban Free Speech.  Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) wants the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) to prohibit organizations from "saying whatever they want about Washington policy debates," according to a letter she sent to the agency on Thursday [3/31/2016].  Warren sent a letter to SEC Chairwoman Mary Jo White calling for an investigation into alleged discrepancies between statements insurance executives made to their investors and complaints these same individuals made about the impact new government regulations would have on their businesses, The Wall Street Journal reports.  The new regulations stem from a Department of Labor rule change that will make it tougher for investment firms that handle retirement funds to operate.

Elizabeth Warren Named One of The Biggest Liars OF 2015.  Left wing hero Elizabeth Warren made the Washington Post's list of liars this year.  The reason had nothing to do with her false claims of Native American heritage but an incorrect suggestion that car dealers intentionally try to mislead and defraud consumers.

Bernie Hints at Warren for VP.  In what would be a dream ticket for some and a nightmare to others, Bernie Sanders has been dropping some not-so-subtle hints that he would select Elizabeth Warren as his running mate.  This would be a smart move on Bernie's part.  He has been functioning as a stand-in for Warren and derives support from her wing of the Democratic Party.  The left would be electrified.  The rest of the country would be horrified as these two Neo-Marxists traveled the land promising to take wealth from some and give to others.

Elizabeth Warren Only Female Democratic Senator Missing From Hillary Clinton Endorsement Event.  One by one tonight [11/30/2015], 13 female Democratic senators took the stage inside the packed ballroom at the Hyatt Regency in Washington, DC to raise money and announce their support for Hillary Clinton.  But it was the person missing from the group who stood out most.

Washington Post names Elizabeth Warren one of its 'biggest Pinocchios of 2015'.  The Massachusetts Democrat was given "Four Pinocchios" for a speech in April in which she cited a flawed study that estimated auto-dealer markups cost consumers $26 billion a year.  The 2011 study, conducted by the Center for Responsible Lending, only collected data on subprime auto loans, which accounted for only one-fifth of the overall market at the time.  Pressed by Kessler, even the CRL's senior vice president admitted the data was incomplete.  But the Pinocchio didn't end there.

Elizabeth Warren: 'Government Permits Us To Do Things Together That None of Us Could Do Alone'.  Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) said at a discussion on infrastructure investment and job creation on Thursday [10/8/2015] that government can accomplish more than individuals.  "Government permits us to do things together that none of us could do alone," Warren said at the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace event in Washington, D.C.

The Editor says...
First of all, the idea that the government "permits us" to do things is a poor choice of words.  We have the right to work together on our own projects.  One does not need a permit to exercise a right.  Second, while it is true that groups of people can do things together that individuals cannot do alone, those groups could be churches, extended families, non-profit organizations, or capitalist companies.  And it's a lot easier to accomplish great things without the government's "help."  Highways, water pipes and sewer lines are examples of beneficial public works projects at the state and local level, but what is the federal government doing on our collective behalf, other than gathering tax revenue, printing money like there's no tomorrow, and throwing money away (again, like there's no tomorrow) on a trillion-dollar welfare state and an assortment of pointless pork-barrel projects such as the exploration of other planets?

Elizabeth Warren's Tax Warning.  Ms. Warren showed up at the National Press Club to pronounce that the idea that American companies are overtaxed is "not true."  In her prepared remarks she said the strategy of "giant corporations" is to "tell a story about high U.S. taxes, demand tax cuts from the U.S. Congress, and threaten to leave the U.S. for good if they don't get what they want.  I say it's time to call their bluff."  Call their bluff?  Their bluff has been called.  They've shown their cards.  And they've moved overseas.  So many U.S. companies have been moving out so quickly that last year Treasury Secretary Jack Lew didn't think he had time even to conduct a formal rule-making to stop them.

Senator Elizabeth Warren Praises Black Lives Matter Movement.  The BLM movement has been well documented to include some of the most anti-social, hate-filled elements of the Occupy crowd; only BLM one comes with specific violence toward police and law enforcement.

Warren Backs Black Lives Matter.  Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) called on Americans to focus on racial justice and expressed her support for the Black Lives Matter movement in a Sunday [9/27/2015] speech at the Edward M. Kennedy Institute for the United States Senate in Boston.  Warren referenced the late Sen. Ted Kennedy's (D-MA) focus on civil rights issues and said, "If his life and death had a meaning, it was that we should not hate but love one another; we should use our powers not to create conditions of oppression that lead to violence, but conditions of freedom that lead to peace."  She said that since the Civil Rights Act, the United States has not come close enough to equality.

Elizabeth Warren: Republicans Want to Shut Down Women's Access to Cancer Screenings.  She says the 2016 Republicans want to shut down women's access to cancer screening at the end of this video.  She never once answers the question of the Planned Parenthood videos.  [Video clip]

Biden partnership would be nightmare for Warren.  Unless Elizabeth Warren wants to brand herself a Class A phony on consumer protection and gender equality, she shouldn't hitch her wagon to Joe Biden's runaway train.  Or, should I say his runaway hands and mouth.  Joining him on a ticket as his vice presidential nominee, as some are now speculating, would send women all over Washington running for cover.  The guy has a serious case of happy hands.

Elizabeth Warren Goes Crazy for Black Lives Matter.  The tipping point for my concern about the precarious state of Senator Warren's mental health came Sunday in the Washington Post.  The loony senator was talking about Black Lives Matter, and how important they are because, as everyone knows, black people are relentless victims of relentless white racism.  All the time.  Everywhere.  And that explains everything.  When, of course, the opposite is true.

Liberals Are Playing a Racial Shell Game.  Massachusetts senator Elizabeth Warren is something of a dashboard saint to American liberals, principally for her retrograde leftism on economics.  It was alleged a few years ago that she spent much of her professional career lying about her fictitious Native American roots.  Warren listed herself as a minority in a professional directory and identified herself as a Native American.  There was no evidence to support her claim, other than her own family lore and her personal conviction that she feels part Indian.  And yet, when Republicans criticized her for it, they were denounced as racist by many defenders.

'Fauxcahontas' Elizabeth Warren Says All Republicans Are Racists.  For someone that isn't running for president Senator Elizabeth Warren sure makes a lot of campaign stops.  And for someone that used to pretend to be a different race, she sure slings the accusation of racism liberally.  At an appearance in Phoenix that had nothing to do with the people in Massachusetts she supposedly represents, Warren called all Congressional Republicans racists.  Warren started things off in her speech before Netroots Nation on Friday [7/17/2015] by saying how racist America is: [...]

Democrats don't really care about the little guys and gals.  It's funny how preachy politicians and activist groups can be when it comes to pet issues like "economic justice."  Yet when it involves their private interests it turns into a case of "do as we say, not as we do."  Case in point crusading Democratic Senator Elizabeth Warren, who said in her 2006 book All Your Worth that the idea that "you can make big money buying houses and flipping them quickly" is a myth.  If so, then in the 1990s Warren and her husband were myth-busters.  According to a new report in National Review making hundreds of thousands of dollars buying a handful of houses at deflated prices and reselling them months or years later at a substantial markup.

The draft Elizabeth Warren movement winds down.  The effort to draft Elizabeth Warren is finally coming to a close.  Weeks after MoveOn.org and Democracy for America shuttered their own campaign to entice the liberal senator into the 2016 presidential race, the super PAC that started the draft Warren effort almost a year ago is getting behind Sen. Bernie Sanders.

$1.3M loophole for Elizabeth Warren.  Federal law requires members of Congress and other federal officials to annually disclose their financial assets and liabilities, including mortgages.  In a form filed last week, Warren stated she and her husband, Bruce Mann, had no debt liabilities in 2014.  But according to a Middlesex South Registry of Deeds record, Bank of America holds a $1.3 million mortgage on the Cambridge home owned by Warren and Mann.  An aide for Warren said the amount represents a home equity line of credit, not a mortgage.

Liz Warren Hid $1.3 Million Credit Line From Bank Of America.  Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren, the populist Democrat and foe of big banks, has not listed a $1.3 million credit line against her home with Bank of America on annual financial disclosure documents because of a loophole in federal law, according to a new report.  The Boston Herald reported Wednesday [5/20/2015] that Warren, who is required to disclose financial assets and liabilities, avoided listing it in 2014 because it's a line of credit — not a mortgage — and the Democrat doesn't actually owe enough money yet.

Aggressive Effort Underway by Democratic Leaders to Recruit Elizabeth Warren.  The Observer has obtained private email correspondence among a small group of Democratic insiders that reveals a plan to recruit Sen. Elizabeth Warren to challenge Hillary Clinton for the Democratic nomination for president.

Exposing Warren and Biden.  [Elizabeth Warren] claims to be of and for the middle and working class Americans, but she's clearly one of the 1%.  Her net worth in 2012 was somewhere between $3.7 million and $10 million. [...] About green Energy, Warren called for an end to tax loopholes and subsidies that she says benefits "Big Oil," saying that those billions of dollars "should be used for investment in infrastructure, education, and 'scientific research that could lead to energy breakthroughs'."  She said that 'Big Oil' "sucked down $5 billion in subsidies from the American people."  By saying that, she opened the "subsidies" door.  Democrats love to misrepresent tax breaks, which are available to all, as "subsidies."

Yes, let's reserve the death penalty for somebody who has done something really bad.
Senator Elizabeth Warren speaks out against the death penalty for convicted Boston bomber Dzhokhar Tsarnaev.  Massachusetts Senator Elizabeth Warren says she's relieved Dzhokhar Tsarnaev has been found guilty of carrying out the Boston bombing — the greatest tragedy in her state's recent history — but doesn't believe he should be executed.

These Blue States Have Tried the Elizabeth Warren Model. Their Residents Are Fleeing.  The blue states that try to lift up the poor with high taxes, high welfare benefits, high minimum wages and other Robin Hood policies tend to be the places where the rich end up the richest and the poor the poorest.

Clinton's scandals and Warren's opening.  Clinton can't blame her current troubles on the so-called "vast right-wing conspiracy."  It was the New York Times that broke the story that Clinton used a private server in her Chappaqua, N.Y., home to conduct official State Department business.  And it was The [Washington] Post that revealed the Clinton Foundation accepted millions of dollars in donations from foreign governments during her tenure as secretary of state.  The two scandals could soon intersect.  Clinton admits that she destroyed 31,000 e-mails from her server that she deemed to be "personal."  If she destroyed records relating to the foundation and its foreign donations, the two scandals could merge and metastasize.

Elizabeth Warren Hero Of Left-Wing Is A Fraud Worth Millions.  Fake "Native American" and communist whack-job Elizabeth Warren is always spouting-off about "income inequality", but she fails to come clean to the poor and working class people she claims to serve.  Warren, the Harvard bankruptcy law professor elected to the Senate in 2012, is worth between $3.7 million and $10 million. [...] That's not including the three-story Victorian home in Cambridge, Mass., that she owns with her husband and fellow Harvard law professor, Bruce Mann.  It's now assessed at $1.9 million, according to city property records.

Elizabeth Warren will not attend Netanyahu speech.  Senator Elizabeth Warren and two other members of the Massachusetts congressional delegation plan to skip Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's speech to Congress Tuesday, saying they are protesting the invitation made by House Speaker John Boehner.  Representatives Katherine Clark, a Melrose Democrat, and Jim McGovern, a Democrat of Worcester, also are planning to miss the event.

Liz Warren: The next Obama.  Warren, a fraudulent "Native American" affirmative-action professor at Harvard Law, represents the same radical left strain that Obama does.  Obama lives for power, and being as self-centered as a spinning top, he lives for his own personal power.  Yes, Hillary is running, but Liz Warren looks younger and more militant to the radical left.

Boston Globe urges Warren to run in 2016.  The Boston Globe on Sunday [3/22/2015] pushed Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) to run for president.  "Democrats would be making a big mistake if they let Hillary Clinton coast to the presidential nomination without opposition, and, as a national leader, Massachusetts Senator Elizabeth Warren can make sure that doesn't happen," the newspaper's editorial board wrote.

5 reasons the left doesn't believe Warren.  Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) has said time and time that against she's not running for president in 2016.  But don't tell that to her fans in the Democratic Party.

Nobody is Really Ready for Warren.  The 200 or so events that the "Ready for Warren" movement has held, in cooperation with MoveOn.org (which has been eerily silent since Democrats assumed administration over Middle Eastern conflicts), have attracted, at best estimate, exactly that number of supporters.  In total, Ready for Warren has probably spent more on Pringles than it has on anything else, including publicity.

'Porker Of The Year'.  CAGW, a non-profit dedicated to eliminating government waste, gives the award annually to the lawmaker, government official, or political candidate who has shown the most "blatant disregard" for taxpayers that year.  [Senator Elizabeth] Warren won over six other candidates with 34 percent of the vote in a public online poll.  She won the award because in 2014 she suggested the USPS fix its financial troubles by rebranding itself as a bank.  If USPS offered basic bill paying, check cashing and small loans, it could make enough money to provide those services and shape up its finances.

Why Growth Is Bad for Elizabeth Warren.  The left wing of the Democratic Party has been arguing that inequality is the central challenge of our time and that we need a populist politics to combat it.  It has found champions such as Senator Elizabeth Warren of Massachusetts and Mayor Bill De Blasio of New York to make that case.  Some of these populists even want Warren to run for the Democratic nomination against Hillary Clinton, with the former taking on the plutocrats the latter is cozy with.  If most people start seeing their wages rise, though, public anger will probably dissipate.

Welcome to the NFL, Elizabeth Warren.  Elizabeth Warren's meteoric rise among Democrats has demonstrated one thing time and again: her real talent is in getting the mainstream media to act as her personal publicity agents.

Meet the Radical Marxist that Union Fat Cats Want to See Occupy the Oval Office in 2016.  While many on the Left (and the Right) believe that the Presidential candidacy of Hillary Clinton is a foregone conclusion, there is another woman that many on the Left — and of greater importance, within labor's ranks — would rather see become President and they are beginning to voice their preference ever more loudly.  Enter Democrats' more liberal senator from Massachusetts, Elizabeth Warren.

Warren's Wealth Hypocrisy on Display.  The hypocrisy of Elizabeth Warren is becoming more and more a matter of record.  The same woman who said of the hate-the-rich Occupy Wall Street movement, "I created much of the intellectual foundation for what they do.  I support what they do," is not only wealthy beyond the dreams of most Americans but is part of the very 1% that the Occupy Movement venomously vilifies.

Elizabeth Warren Says Economy Is Rigged Against Middle Class.  Is the economy rigged against the middle class?  The Democratic left's dream candidate — Sen. Elizabeth Warren — thinks so.  "I see evidence everywhere of the pounding working people are taking," Warren said on Wednesday at an AFL-CIO summit on raising wages.  "These families are working harder than ever, but they can't get ahead.  Many feel that the game is rigged against them, and they are right.  The game is rigged against them."  Her argument, of course, is that the government must intervene to level the playing field.  But Warren must not be looking very hard if she can't see that the free market is rigged in favor of working families, not against them.

Liz Warren: Class Warrior With Heap Big Wampum.  Liberals hope that the populist-sounding Elizabeth Warren will run to the left of Hillary Clinton, whom they fear is now too rich and out of touch.  But Sen. Warren's financial records may dash their hopes.

Elizabeth Warren blasts GOP on Keystone.  U.S. Sen. Elizabeth Warren chided Republicans yesterday for planning to push a divisive top priority as soon as they officially take over the Senate, rather than working toward bipartisan agreements.  "There's going to be an energy hearing on Wednesday [1/7/2015], and right now, the Republicans say they're going to move forward on the Keystone pipeline," said Warren (D-Mass.).  "If we're going to move forward on something, how about something that more of us can agree on?"

The Editor says...
We all agree on almost nothing.  If it were not so, we wouldn't need Senators.  Senator Warren's idea of "forward" is not the direction most Americans want to go.

Elizabeth Warren lays out liberal agenda in campaign-style speech to union allies.  Sounding ever the presidential contender, liberal firebrand Sen. Elizabeth Warren outlined a sweeping Democratic agenda Wednesday that included raising the minimum wage, breaking up Wall Street banks and raising taxes on big business to help shore up entitlement programs and pay for infrastructure projects.

How the Media Is Covering Elizabeth Warren's Plan to Shut Down the Government.  During last year's government shutdown when Republicans and Democrats couldn't come to a compromise on spending provisions to continue to fund the government, the media portrayed it as Ted Cruz's fault — Ted Cruz's shutdown, because he wanted to defund Obamacare.  This year, Sen. Elizabeth Warren wants to reject the bipartisan spending compromise to get rid of business-friendly deregulatory provisions.  But this year, it's not about "Elizabeth Warren's plan to shut down the government."  No, the media can't bring themselves to go there.

What Elizabeth Warren Missed in Her Big Bank Tirade.  Sen. Elizabeth Warren delivered a stemwinder speech last Friday [12/12/2014] on the need for government to rein in Wall Street influence.  But it's big government that created the monster in the first place.

Elizabeth Warren poses a challenge to Hillary in 2016.  Massachusetts firebrand Sen. Elizabeth Warren emerges from Washington's budget clash as the undisputed champion of the rising left, and will almost certainly challenge Clinton for the 2016 nomination.  The polls say it's Hillary's turn, but I'm starting to believe 2016 could be 2008 all over again, with Warren taking the nomination from her the way Barack Obama did.

Sen. Durbin: Elizabeth Warren a 'great spokesman' for Democrats.  Sen. Elizabeth Warren long has been a hero on the progressive left, but her popularity among the Democratic Party establishment is growing rapidly.  Ms. Warren, Massachusetts Democrat, now is set to assume a leadership role in her party's Senate caucus, and the leaders of that caucus say she's uniquely qualified for the job.

Liberal 2016 poll: Elizabeth Warren beating Clinton by double digits.  Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren — not Hillary Clinton — is the top progressive choice for president in 2016, according to a new poll.  In fact, Clinton doesn't even make second place.  Forty two percent of respondents favor Warren, and Vermont Independent Senator Bernie Sanders also edges out Clinton with 24% compared to her 23%, according to results from the 2016 Presidential Pulse Poll commissioned by progressive grassroots organization Democracy for America.

300 Former Obama Staffers Urge Elizabeth Warren to Run for President.  A group of more than 300 hundred former Obama staffers have written an open letter urging Elizabeth Warren to run for president of the United States.

Fake Holocaust Survivor Eva Steiner Moseley Gets Elizabeth Warren to Endorse Hamas.  It does seem like Warren is semi-randomly tossing out talking points that she had picked up earlier for an issue that she doesn't really understand.

Democrats Still Hate Dirty, Greedy Businesses.  Hillary Clinton sniffs, "Don't let anyone tell you that, um, you know, (smirk) corporations and businesses create jobs."  Barack Obama chastises, "If you have a business, you didn't build that.  Somebody else made that happen."  Analysts around the country have correctly noted that Obama and Hillary were trying to be Elizabeth Warren, Lioness of the Leeches, Princess of Thieves.  Here's the way Warren said it: [...]

Democrats Give Fake Indian Elizabeth Warren a Fake New Leadership Post.  The Democrats just got clobbered in the mid-terms and are now for all intents and purposes a regional party that is confined to the coasts and urban areas.  They need to find a way to improve their policy and messaging so that they might, at some point, become competitive in some states and at least relevant in others.  So what do they do?  They lurch to the left again.

Eleven Commandments and the Color 9.  [S]o much shape-shifting is going on in the public arena that I often catch myself mid-stagger as if I'd just stepped off a roller coaster.  Such was my reaction after reading National Journal's article [7/18/2014] titled "Elizabeth Warren's 11 Commandments of Progressivism." [...] In the first place, the headline was as deceptive as I suspected; her "commandments" weren't really commandments, because none of them forbade progressives from doing anything, rather they demanded the cooperation of everyone else.  After all, the progressive dream cannot be realized unless absolutely everyone toes the line, willingly or otherwise.  Shangri-La cannot be perfect if anyone is allowed to leave.  Each of her statements started with the phrase "we believe" as if it were a statement of faith like you'd find on a church web site, and ended with either some activity she wants other people to stop doing, or with demands for benefits she thinks people either "deserve" or are "entitled to," terms she used almost as often as the word "equal."

Valerie Jarrett in secret meetings with Elizabeth Warren, author Ed Klein says.  New York Times best-selling author and long-time journalist Ed Klein said that Valerie Jarrett has been engaging in secret meetings with Sen. Elizabeth Warren in recent months, giving rise to speculations that the Massachusetts political newcomer is actually the administration's choice to head the White House in 2016.

The media is drafting Elizabeth Warren to run in 2016.  [I]t is fair to say that most in the press believe that only individual who could mount a credible challenge to Clinton from her left is Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA).  The "reality-based community," as it were, is however quick to note that even that scenario is highly unlikely.  This sentiment is best expressed by Slate's Dave Weigel who recently performed an interview with the founder of campaign aimed at drafting Warren to run in 2016.

Elizabeth Warren Is Overrated.  The notion that Elizabeth Warren should challenge Hillary Clinton for the Democratic Party presidential nomination has been optimistically tossed around in left-wing circles for a while now. [...] Still, it seems to me that a lot of people are overestimating the appeal, uniqueness, and popularity of Warren.  What's most enticing about Warren right now is the perception of her, not the reality. [...] It's when Warren goes full Progressive that she sounds like a irate union boss.  She promises to "fight" for all of you.  Yet, not a single doctrine of the modern Left according to Warren has anything to do with broad economic growth.

Elizabeth Warren: The government shutdown was over birth control.  Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., on Tuesday blamed last October's government shutdown on Republicans wanting to deny women access to birth control.  No really.  Warren said this on the Senate floor while defending the Democrats' deceptively titled "Women's Health Protection Act."  "Remember last year's government shutdown that nearly tanked our economy?" Warren asked.  "That fight started with a GOP effort to hold the whole operation of the federal government hostage in order to try to force Democrats and the president to let employers deny workers access to birth control."

Is Sen. Elizabeth Warren a Mere Hack or an Out-and-Out Sociopath?  Sen. Elizabeth Warren now says that last year's government shutdown was about birth control.  Warren did not make the remark in an off-the-cuff setting.  She made it in a prepared speech. [...] Spoiler alert:  That shutdown was not over birth control.  That shutdown was over the budget and the entirety of Obamacare.  The whole law (which hardly any Democrat read before passing it into law).  Not birth control.

Liz Warren Is Confused: Why Do They Think I'm A Socialist?  Her bill, the Bank on Students Emergency Loan Refinancing Act, would lower the amount of money that students are obligated to repay to the federal government.  If enacted, the bill would deprive the federal government of billions of dollars in interest payments owed to its shareholders:  the American taxpayers.  It is Warren's belief that students — who voluntarily signed up for the loans and agreed to pay them back at certain interest rates — should be let off the hook.

Elizabeth Warren student loan bill stalls.  The Senate on Wednesday voted not to move forward on a bill from Sen. Elizabeth Warren that would have allowed an estimated 25 million people with older student loans to refinance that debt at current, lower interest rates.

Hillary's Biggest 2016 Competitor: A Native American Millionaire Who Also Pretends Not to Be Wealthy.  A huge question in Democratic politics — other than "When is Hillary going to announce?" — concerns whether or not Senator Elizabeth Warren (D — Cherokee Nation) will run for president.  If Hillary does not run, it is almost certain that Warren will.  Well-known for her populist and Occupy-esque perspectives on healthcare, taxes, income redistribution and everything in-between, she is one of the rising stars of the Democratic party.  Anticipating that it could happen, we're getting out in front and establish her as a storyteller, to put it nicely, about her wealth.

Why Elizabeth Warren is perfectly positioned for 2016 (if she wanted to run).  Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) says she's not running for president in 2016, and we believe her — for the most part.  But there is one thing that will keep the pilot light of the Warren for President speculation aflame:  the almost-gaping hole in the Democratic primary that seems tailor-made for her.  Look no further than the new Washington Post-ABC News poll for a little glimpse into that void.  The poll shows that a huge portion of the Democratic base not only dislikes Wall Street and big business; its voters actually think these institutions are inflicting harm on them personally.

Liberals: Exempt from Scrutiny.  The 1 percent fetish is also not really ideological.  Elizabeth Warren, one of its greatest supporters, is not just a 1 percent but a 0.1 percent grandee.  Her house, habits, household income, past corporate consulting, and net worth all reflect a desire for profits and refinement not accorded to most Americans.  Her life is about as much a part of the 99.9 percent as she is Native American.  She is not worried about welders getting some work on the Keystone Pipeline or farmworkers put out of their jobs in Mendota, Calif., over a baitfish.

Elizabeth Warren would crush Hillary, and they both know it.  Forget the current polling as between Hillary and Elizabeth Warren.  It pits Hillary against someone who "isn't running."  For all my criticisms of Warren, and they are extensive, I am convinced that if she ran, she would crush Hillary, just as Obama did.  Warren, as did Obama, has a unique ability to demagogue the core Democratic narrative of victimhood in ways that would make Hillary blush.  She is more cunning than Hillary, more popular with the base, would bring an excitement the contrived Ready-for-Hillary movement could only dream of.  Democrats may be "ready" for Hillary, but they don't really want her.

After two years, no answers from Elizabeth Warren on roots.  It's been two years since I broke the story that Harvard University identified Sen. Elizabeth Warren as a minority — citing her alleged Native American roots — but we're still in the dark.  We've had two years of Warren's simplistic answers that aren't really answers.  Two years of Warren insisting she's proud of her heritage while dismissing questions about it.  And two years of her refusal to open up records that could prove whether she used that heritage claim in Ivy League applications.

One-percenter Liz Warren milks system then slams it in phony soundbites.  While U.S. Sen. Elizabeth Warren sleeps in her $5 million mansion in Cambridge, and got paid $350,000 to teach just one class at Harvard, she had the audacity to say in an interview with Jon Stewart this week that "the system is rigged to benefit the rich."  Yes, Sen. Warren, that would be you.  Under a free-market, capitalist system, you became a U.S. senator and multimillionaire whose own net worth hovers around $14.5 million, according to personal financial disclosure reports filed in 2011.

Warren Attempts A Rewrite of Her 'Native American' Heritage in New Book.  A new book by Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D.-Mass.) attempts to rewrite history on her controversial claim of Native American ancestry.  The issue of Warren's ancestry emerged during her 2012 Senate campaign when news broke that Harvard Law School was promoting Warren as a Native American faculty member.

Is she bragging or complaining?
Sen. Elizabeth Warren: America 'Rigged' to Benefit the Rich.  On Wednesday, Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) complained that America had "fundamentally changed" so that the rich get richer and the poor continue to struggle. [...] "That's what's fundamentally changed," Warren insisted.  "Look, it's tough out there.  It really is a rigged game, and it's set up now over and over and over."

Sen. Elizabeth Warren: It's 'Dangerous' to Want 'Big Government' to Disappear.  "Politics so often felt dirty to me — all the lobbyists and the cozy dealings and the special favors for those who could buy access.  But as I stood in the lobby outside Ted Kennedy's office, I felt as if I'd been washed clean," media favorite Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., said in her book.  That quote sums up the message of Warren's new book "A Fighting Chance."

The Editor says...
Mary Jo Kopechne was unavailable to comment about people getting a "fighting chance."

Elizabeth Warren whines about coverage of her fraudulent Indian claim.  Democratic Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren wrote in her forthcoming book that she was "hurt" and "angry" by 2012 reporting on her fraudulent claim to Native American heritage.  "What really threw me, though, were the constant attacks from the other side," Warren wrote in her book "A Fighting Chance."

Elizabeth Warren, take my DNA challenge?  There is only one way to settle once and for all the question of whether the fake Indian is or is not a real Indian.  She needs to take a DNA test.  I dare you, Sen. Warren. [...] No more of this fact-free nonsense about your "high cheekbones," or these ridiculous fables about your parents "eloping" to escape the racism of the Indian Territory when they actually returned to their hick hometown that same evening for a traditional wedding party.

Elizabeth Warren Is Rewriting History.  In a new book released today [4/22/2014], Massachusetts Democratic senator and potential presidential candidate Elizabeth Warren attempts to rewrite history regarding the controversy surrounding her "Native American" ancestry that emerged in the 2012 Senate campaign.  What's remarkable is that, at least in the initial book reviews, the press largely allows her to get away with it.  In fact, it's virtually ignored that to this day Warren still refuses to release any law school records that may shed light on this controversy.

Elizabeth Warren's claim that the U.S. earns $51 billion in profits on student loans.  Who knew?  The federal government knows how to make a profit!  Or, as Warren twice said in arguing for a cut in interest rates on student loans:  "obscene profits."

Elizabeth Warren Demands Blood Donation Rights For Gay Men.  Senator Elizabeth Warren and the other signatories from congress are correct when they cite the advances the medical community has made in HIV/AIDS research and treatment but it is absurd and dangerous to advance this as a cause with any basis in civil rights.  One would hope that most parents of a child in need of a blood transfusion wouldn't risk their child's life to prove their progressive sincerity.

Elizabeth Warren surges in new Prez poll.  The former secretary of state and first lady dominated last week's new Quinnipiac University survey, which showed her gobbling up 61 percent of support and beating any Republican challenger — be it New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie, Kentucky U.S. Sen. Rand Paul or Texas U.S. Sen. Ted Cruz — by anywhere from 13 to 23 points.

Elizabeth Warren writes new chapter.  Whatever happened to Granny Warren's Native American heritage?  She's written a new memoir, due out next month, and in the advance press releases, I don't notice the word "Indian" anywhere.

Take it to the bank: Sen. Elizabeth Warren wants to raise minimum wage to $22 per hour.  Sen. Elizabeth Warren, Massachusetts Democrat, suggested raising the minimum wage to $22 per hour is only logical if you look at the numbers.  "If we started in 1960, and we said [that] as productivity goes up ... then the minimum wage was going to go up the same ... if that were the case, the minimum wage today would be about $22 an hour," the senator said, at a recent Education, Labor and Pensions Committee hearing on "Keeping up with a Changing Economy: Indexing the Minimum Wage."

The Editor says...
Productivity went up in spite of the steadily increasing minimum wage, not because of it.

Elizabeth Warren wants to know why the minimum wage isn't $22 an hour.  Why stop at $22?  Why not $100, $200 or $1,000 an hour?

Elizabeth Warren's Fuzzy Math.  Sen. Elizabeth Warren's (D., Mass.) argument that the minimum wage would be triple what it is today if it were linked with productivity relies on oversimplified and faulty data, a new study says.  Warren's rhetoric "makes zero economic sense, and demonstrates how out of touch Sen. Warren is with business realities faced by employers who hire people and pay them the minimum wage," said the report by the Employment Policies Institute (EPI), a free market think tank specializing in wage issues.

Elizabeth Warren winning support for 2016 White House bid.  Just a few months into her first U.S. Senate term, Democrat Elizabeth Warren is generating increasing support among liberals as a White House contender — putting her on a potential collision course with presumed front-runner Hillary Clinton.  Warren's tough stand against the Obama administration's proposal to potentially cut Social Security benefits has become a lightning rod for progressive groups looking for a more liberal standard bearer in 2016.

Elizabeth Warren Wikipedia page ethnically cleansed.  Warren insisted during the campaign that believed that she was Cherokee based on family lore, but that family lore (including the famous elopement story) was substantially debunked.  Warren's family always self-identified as white, and her great grandfather even made the local newspapers for shooting an Indian.  Warren's false claim to be Cherokee, and her comical explanations, such as that her ancestors had "high cheekbones" and a plagiarized entry in the Pow Wow Chow cookbook, have become a large part of Warren's political persona, and is the subject of widespread mockery.

Liz won't beat drum.  Despite repeated claims she is "proud" of her Cherokee heritage, newly minted U.S. Sen. Elizabeth Warren is keeping that pride under wraps and won't be taking advantage of a chance to officially list herself as the Bay State's first Native American U.S. senator.  Aides said Warren, who describes herself as part Cherokee and part Delaware Indian, won't contact historians at the Senate Historical Office to tell them she's Native American.  The office lists minority senators in its official directory.

The Muddle Class.  America's education industry, by accelerating the upward mobility of the most intelligent young people, has served as a relentless engine of social stratification. [...] The stratification of American society by cognitive ability no doubt has its benefits in terms of economic growth and efficiency.  But if one were looking for someone who personifies a Belmont elitist, one could scarcely do better than to point to Elizabeth Warren.  Her egalitarian pose is one of the great hypocrisies of our age.

Warren Curt, Deflective in First Presser as Senator-Elect.  Massachusetts Senator-elect Elizabeth Warren, in her first press conference after defeating Sen. Scott Brown, was noticeably curt with reporters asking about her campaign and the issues voters elected her to solve.  When reporters asked her about the fiscal cliff, Warren could only say, "right now, the parties are in negotiations," and, "well, I think that's where it is."  When asked which Senate committees interested her, Warren refused to answer.

Liz emerges to squash all things GOP.  While I've been extremely grateful — along with the rest of our state's 46 percent of common-sense voters — that Lizzy Warren went underground after that disastrous post-election press conference when she deferred her decisions as our U.S. senator to Majority Leader Harry Reid, she's back now.  Can you imagine the media buzz if Sen. Scott Brown had disappeared after a presser fumble like that?

Elizabeth Warren (D. Elizabeth Warren).  Do you remember the line about how all clever economists were tall, with the exceptions of Milton Friedman and John Kenneth Galbraith?  Clever or not, the 6'8" Galbraith was one of the wittiest of economists, and under a pseudonym once wrote a book mocking academic jargon called The McLandress Dimension.

Confirmed — Elizabeth Warren knowingly self-identified as Native American on law association forms.  Democratic Senate Candidate Elizabeth Warren has been all over the newspapers the past several days after a revelation that Harvard Law School identified her as a Native American faculty member in the mid-1990s.  The claim to Native American status came as a shock to the media and the Scott Brown campaign.  Warren contends that she was unaware of the designation by HLS, and that it played no role in her hiring.  Warren asserts that her Native American heritage is family lore, and based on what she has been told not any specific documentation she is aware of.  Subsequently, David Bernstein discovered that in annual reports by the Association of American Law Schools (AALS) from 1986-1994, Warren was listed as a minority faculty member.  Since AALS bases such information solely on what faculty self-reports, the information must have come from Warren herself.  The AALS directories, however, only identify whether the faculty member is "minority," not what minority status is claimed.

Senator Pocahontas Claims The Far Left Will Lead Dems To Victory.  Democratic Senator Elizabeth Warren, infamously known as Pocahontas due to her false claims of being a Native American, is out shaking her bucket rocks again.  This time she is claiming that liberals will lead the Democratic Party back from the wilderness.  Does this means she admits that they are an extremely lost party?  She declared that "progressive liberals" can bring the party back up to par, and also claims that they control its direction.  She says this as a possible 2020 presidential candidate.  All I have to say is that she should definitely run.  It will be almost as satisfying to watch her lose as it was to watch Hillary!

Sen. Liz Warren replays same sad song.  Sen. Granny Warren, the fake Indian, has said many things that we all remember, most of them involving her, ahem, Native-American heritage.  That gag about her high cheekbones is one of my personal favorites.  But Chief Spreading Bull recently delivered another memorable line at the Martin Luther King breakfast:  "We cannot be a country that says, 'I've got mine, the rest of you are on your own.'"
