Warren, Booker, Harris, Sanders, Gillibrand, Klobuchar and we can only pray Hillary. Against this group of idiots Trump won’t even have to campaign and he will win!! realDonaldTrump

wtf kind of garbage headline/framing is that?

Don't you start this shit, WaPo.

So many comments about this headline and the Post not letting it go. True enough. But Elizabeth Warren has handles this terribly. She cannot stop talking about it. She has been complicit in keeping this story alive.

DavidVi15059809 Will she be backed by the American Natives? Liar

There are no lingering questions about her identity. That is over, unless you are in the Trump cult.

So WaPo - you haven't learned a THING, have you? In the face of openly fascist occupation of the White House, THIS is what bothers you about Warren? No. Just...no.

No one cares. Get over it. realDonaldTrump faces 11, ELEVEN, charges of sexual assault. Preface every reference to him with that. Oh, wait. Your owner sends dick pix. Solidarity, bruh.

While you continue to debate about the percentage of a candidate's ethnicity,

Like what do you not know, what is lingering for you. The president is racist about and that's it. The gop official account is tweeting racial slurs and that is not a headline but this is? You suck at your job and should be embarrassed.

The only people still lingering are trolling Republicans. Get your head out, WaPo

Time to move on.

Worthless headline writer. Fire them. Out of a cannon. Into the sun.

Come on WP. Knock off this crap.

F off. Tell me about her ideas, policies. Have you learned nothing?

This headline. 🤦🏽‍♀️

Get back to us when you write this BS about men.

A Documented Liar and Phony American Indian.

There are no lingering questions, only lingering media hacks. Focus on the issues that matter.

There are no lingering questions, but misogynistic, racist, distractions continue because of weak “but her emails” nonsense like this. Just stop.

No sane person is questioning her identity. We know she’s progressive & will do everything in her power to benefit all citizens. Sen. Elizabeth Warren is the panacea to heal this nation. We need to stop Election-Auctions. We need good Public Edu. H-care, clean air/H2O, food/drugs

Why don't you ask candidates what they are going to do for the Native community instead of focusing on this, if you care so much?

It matters to trump and journalists. Let it go already.

Unless you're going to pair this with an article on DJT entitled, 'Trump runs for re-election amid lingering questions over sanity and treason,' then cut the bs

Let it go, WaPo. There are far more important matters to write about.

Have we changed the definition of “lingering” now, too? Is nothing sacred?

She already lost the Cherikee vote.

This is literally the “but her emails” story of this race. Seriously, did you learn nothing?

Do better

This headline is garbage! You’ve obviously learned nothing from 2016. Complicit much

But her emails!!!!

Make America Stupid Again Eh? You guys learned nothing from getting played over emails in 2016.

What a stupid 'issue' to obsess over. POLICY, good citizens! What does each candidate represent in terms of POLICY. Haven't you figured that out, after the past two screwed-up years?! Come on, journalists! Enough with the gossip mongering. ElizabethWarren

Poor Indian woman has no chance.. she is done roasted

Yanno, I subscribe to your paper bc the NYT is clearly irredeemable. But you shouldn’t try my patience

FFS

I’m pretty sure we all know who she is. The female Senator from MA who kicks ass. Try not taking the trump bait.

Warren Announces Candidacy Prompting White House Man, Who Did Not Receive The Majority of Votes, to Spew Racist Slurs & Make jokes about Genocide

OMG! Let it go already!😑

Squaw Warren, stated during a presidential campaign, that the Trump administration was the most corrupt. However Squaw Warren for decades lied to everyone Squaw new. Lied that she was an American Indian Squaw. Such is fraud. Squaw Warren needs to be investigated today.

The real world stats,show that the dems greatly support abortion.Stats also indicate that the U.S. black/brown population is less than 30% . However black/brown lil babes are 65% of Amer. babes aborted. One can conclude that dems support eliminating black/brown folks.RACISTS

Uh ..she’s a white lady. I think most people are clear on that

Seriously, who gives a f*ck about her identity, Wapo? Are you going to milk this as long as she’s in the race? If media stopped amplifying Trump’s juvenile attacks, those attacks would lose their effectiveness.

It doesn't matter how many times Warren apologizes and/or explains this, the mainstream media will continue to raise this 'lingering' question.

Bye Felicia!

Drop it.

No one--and I mean NO ONE--cares about that stuff from the past. You guys helped to elect Trump. You might want to tread lightly on the BS having nothing to do with qualifications for the job--this time.

Move on already!

PLEASE REVIEW YOUR COVERAGE FROM 2016. How many articles about HillaryClinton emails compared to DT Foundation , etc and tied to Russia and etc, etc etc. And hint: THERE ARE NO LINGERING QUESTIONS. Thankyou.

Who cares

Trump is still POTUS despite enormous evidence of corruption, collusion, and incompetence. Unasked questions during his candidacy in 2016 along with media failure to sufficiently linger on his disqualifying behaviors and attributes has led to the suffering of many. ButHerEmails

Really? Really? You people need to let it go. The media and trump are the only people who care about this.

Another non issue issue. Media is being led around by Russia, Wikileaks and AMI.

She looks like a squaw to me .

At least she doesn't have family members who fraudulently got million$ in fed contracts by stating they're Cherokee like GOPLeader's family did. ewarren

But is she likable?

What questions are lingering, exactly? Trump said he was Swedish. Are there lingering questions about that?

Only from ppl who are scared of her. Nothing about her genealogy disqualifies her. Only ppl who are scared that she is a good candidate will try to tear her down. Otherwise, why bother.

This is ridiculous!!! Enough with the American Indian situation. The GOP is scared of her and continuing to use this via trolls over social media to torpedo her candidacy.

There's no lingering question. Just bad headlines like this. Do not repeat the mistakes of 2016. Do better.

AnnieLinskey, your article is bad, and you should feel bad for continuing the “but her emails” reporting. She has ancestors who were Native American. This is fact. Her only mistake was confusing family history w/ tribal traditions. There are no “lingering questions.”

She KILLED IT! FIGHT! FIGHT! FIGHT!

no one is unsure about Elizabeth Warren's identity. She knows and we know what she is not. She IS a fraud...She IS NOT an Indian.

Now do Trump

Don’t you have more stories to do on Hillary’s emails or something?

There are no lingering questions about her identity. Focus

Just the avg democrat running....”raise taxes cause we can spend your money better “.

She has a 1/1024th chance

Stop behaving like this 2016 and f*cking with women. Over it and we are watching.

What r the lingering questions?

'I'm looking through you, but you're not there.'

zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz...

Is this true if all liberals? They never really know who they are because they have a foundation in nothing

If you continue this line you become part of the republican/trump conspiracy of lies. Don't repeat the mistakes you made with Mrs. Clinton.

Im going to cancel my subscribtion now.

Did you have a worst-headline-you-can-come-up-with competition?

“Lingering questions over identity”? I’m pretty sure that she really is Elizabeth Warren. DOESN’T ANYONE STEP BACK AND SEE WHAT THE ARTICLE HEADLINE IS ACTUALLY SAYING?

Stop it!

Eff the identity crisis! Stop spreading right wing propaganda and let it go. I always thought I inherited North African heritage from my moms family b/c they have some for sure. Testing says I don’t have any. We believe what family says. STOP NOW!

Stop writing this bullshit please.

Sloppy, lazy journalism--SAD!

Who thinks Warren’s family lore is the single most absurd and idiotic non-issue the media has ever perseverated on? 🙋🏻‍♂️

The only thing that’s “lingering” is our doubts about the competence & motives of the moron who chose this headline and approach.

Those that matter don’t mind and those who mind don’t matter.

Oh good lord. Let it go.

Perhaps if pseudo journalists like Linskey stopped focusing on bs & delved into issues that matter, our election process would improve & people more informed.

😂😂😂😂

She though she was a Native American Indian? What about 45 sending “PI’s” to Kenya 🇰🇪 to get PROF 44th POTUS was NOT American Born Did the Washington Post follow up 2 prove DT was a LIAR 🤥 come on, if U R going 2 give time 2 Apprentice in training is our 45th POTUS enough BS

Do better. There’s nothing lingering.

There are NO lingering questions - just STOP 🛑

And Donald is a white-elitist, racist a$$hole who is likely a lap-dog to a number of threatening countries. Common sense should be a factor, not party.

We have NO lingering questions!

Come on. Shes put them to rest and apologized and others have moved on. Let it go!

Stop it.

THERE ARE NO LINGERING QUESTIONS

This is a bad headline. Why is her identity such a big issue to you? She believed the ancestral story her family told her and she never benefitted from being a native American. Reporting is one thing, it's something else to advance a racist narrative.

Translation: the media has learned nothing about campaign coverage and continue to carry Trump’s water.

This is so stupid. She apologized. I grew up believing I had Cherokee ancestry as my grandmother had always said. No reason not to believe her. My mom told me to put it on my College app but I could never verify it. Turns out no Indian, small amounts of Nigerian/Spanish.

What lingering questions? Did she really pay off porn stars? Did she have desires to build a Warren Tower in Moscow?

Get the f—k over it 🙄

Lot of crazies on ur timeline are upset w/ this story. They believe u are betraying the Democrat party by telling the truth about Warren. Take a minute and think why would a group of leftists be upset with the Post for telling the truth? They view the Post as leftist propaganda

What lingering questions? Did you all not learn a fucking thing about how Hillary was portrayed & treated vs Trump? Next you should do a piece on whether she's likeable enough. This is bullshit. How embarrassing.

It is only lingering because you want to keep talking about it.

The only lingering question is if she will get worse treatment from media companies than Hillary did. Conservatives play the refs and get you guys to be harder on Democrats than Republicans. I see it's still working.

Nah, I know who she is. No question: it's Elizabeth Warren.

OH GIVE IT A REST WILL YOU? You can’t compensate for underinvestigating Trump by making a mountain out of this molehill. NO ONE CARES what her bloodlines are - cover the work she has done!!

Keep this crap up and I will be cancelling my sub

Just stop it damn it, stop reporting this shit.

Delete this

This makes me not want the pay for the WaPo. You learned nothing over the last 2 years.

ENOUGH with the bullshit “identity” stories

Ok stop it . Just let the woman declare. Trump’s German you gonna make something out of that? He’s a nazi. Just stop this nonsense.

Fail.

Only you guys keep it lingering.

Big mistake Senator Warren. Trump has already made you a target.

Compared to the sack of shit that's currently squatting in our White House, I'd say ewarren appears to be a saint. The press keeps helping her opposition make this a thing. 2016 all over again. Why not write about her accomplishments and work she's done in our Capitol?

Go away

The questions I have about Warren’s ancestry are: did the Russians conspire with trump and/or his campaign to defraud Americans and affect the 2016 vote? Did Brett Kavanaugh lie to Congress? Is Mitch McConnell beholden to a foreign power, too? What’s up with Lindsey Graham?

Democrats like to put corrupt politicians in office

I don’t think there are any questions at all.

Excellent .... she can steal more opportunities from REAL Native Americans!

Only because media keep pushing those very questions. Quit reporting on yourselves in the third person.

What else has she lied about? She's should have retired after starting the CFPB, that could have been her legacy, now most people see her as just an anti-America liar.

Warren set to announce candidacy amid lingering questions over ideas...

It's a waste of time, Liz.

only given life by the horrid media. Let’s be honest. This has gotten more fervor than say Trump’s mob ties, scam university and FDN, his bankruptcies and the 19 credible women who accused his of sexual assault. Let’s be honest, media loves giving life to GOP narratives

AnnieLinskey this is a terrible way to cover her launch. It’s the emails all over again. Please learn the lessons of 2016.

Seriously it’s stuff like this that prevents me from getting a subscription. Have you learned anything

What lingering questions? NONE! But there are plenty surrounding trump!

SenWarren does not regret calling herself “American Indian” on her TX bar registration. She regrets registering for the bar in a state that wouldn’t stonewall a FOIA request 35 years later.

Oh, please do shut up. No one cares. Do better. Report on her positions and policy. Stop repeating GOP trash talk.

What is wrong with you Media. You are starting to sound like the obsession you had with Hillary’s emails. JUST STOP!

There are no lingering questions about her identity. The question is why her amazing career of advocacy doesn't make the headline, but Trump's racist meanderings shape your coverage instead

There are no lingering questions. This is irresponsible. Stop.

This is such a non issue. Expressing pride that one even might have an ancestor who was Native American is not a crime. I have met hundreds of people with similar stories. The offensive person is trump who calls her By his juvenile nickname.

If you still have lingering questions you may have misogyny problems. She's answered all question, move on.

good for her

Ridiculous. It was a silly mistake. Stop talking about it.

HER IDENTITY QUESTION IS BS AFTER TRUMP WAS SELECTED

unwise plan...

No, actually there are no lingering questions just MSM that wants to perpetuate nonsense. With the numerous critical issues facing this country I would think your time could be better spent.

There is no lingering question. The MSM is “but her emails” ing her. Cmon. Don’t repeat 2016 to get ratings. You’ve done enough.

“Lingering questions”? WTF is that? She has a family tradition that her family is native. She is not. She apologized for her ignorance, - This brings indigenous concerns to the fore, likely makes her a staunch ally, either accept her apologies or not. There is no lingering...

The only lingering question is, “Has the press really learned nothing since 2016?” Please stop the misogyny. NOW!

The only people that CARE about this “Identity” story any more are Right Wingers AFRAID of her POPULAR message and journalists that are desperate for their approval.

Lingering questions over her identity? Lol. And please stop.

STOP publishing this bullshit story about 'identity!” She’s a female American citizen who is running for President of the United States. It’s time to leave it at that. She has a right to call herself whatever she wants, even if it’s based on what she believes is her heritage.

Good....she will get participation certificate

Is this Warren ‘identity’ issue really a media choice? Similar to Hillary’s ‘likability & emails’ obsession of the media? They virtually ignored Hillary’s policy coverage. Opted for Trump’s circus/entertainment/curiosity act. Don’t do this again, in this election, media!

The left lives and dies by identity politics.

Leading American economist and U.S. Senator announces her candidacy to be the first woman president of the United States.

Her identity? For real? Well, thank goodness you can find a story to mimic HRC's emails. Because look how well that worked out for the American people.

Who has 'lingering questions' over her identity? This is another ridiculous issue you are using to destroy a female candidate. Again. Do you actually WATCH your own television commercials? Do you have any ethics at all? What about her emails?

Not really! She apologized for it. I think she was proud/happy when she got her result. In Canada we have lots of education offered to us about indigenous peoples from childhood to adult. My employer also expects me to take ongoing training. I do not think same is expected in USA

Write about her policies.

seems like the only thing lingering, is your desire to publish non-stories and not learn from the past. sweet jeebus, wake up and report on something relevant

the plutocrats don’t want to talk about her policies so they flog this nonsense instead.

STOP WITH THIS BS RIGHT NOW

Washington Post to publish paper among lingering questions of chronic douchbaggery.

I'm an anthropologist & checked Ancestry to see when Elizabeth's family names Herring & Reed history. They 1st appear in census in 1840 that is 1 year after Cherokee were forced to move to what is now Oklahoma. Her grandmother told her about 1 Cherokee ancestor that's the DNA 1/

If trump doesn’t have to answer for the credible 20 or so sexual assaults he’s committed, why the F are we still droning on and on about this topic with her? She explained it and apologized many times. All families tell stories like that.

SenWarren is a complete fraud. There is no doubt she used the system to advance her career and become a millionaire. She has no shame. None. Which does make her a politician.

Elizabeth Warren would do more for native Americans than anything Trump would ever even think of! Who is behind this attack on her from the Cherokee Nation? There are millions of Americans that claim to have native American ancestry! This is very suspicious to me considering.

Ms. Warren wants to join the Presidential Candidate Tribe.

YOURE DOING IT AGAIN

How about a front page to Teach the country on what FOLKLORE is Apparently the technology age isn’t so smart when people and especially journalists are more interested in mistruths then to enlighten the many who forget how our history was past down through generations ......

Fraud!!!

Drop out !

AssholePress

Supreme waste of $$$$$

This is sexist and NOT NEWS. DO BETTER. THIS IS WHY WE HAVE A CRIMINAL IN THE WHITE HOUSE.

Where was the tribal leaders’ outrage when the president of the United States was using an racist insult that demeaned Native American women?

Another radical liberal socialist I don’t know what gender I am Democrat.

As AOC rightly said, “Warren has the right to tell the story of her own ancestry”.

Only Republicans and the far left think it’s an issue.

I see the media has found its email story.

So this is the next version of 'but her emails'? This one is even dumber.

Actually it's not a lingering question. No one cares about it besides trump and his fans.

JFC.

There are no lingering questions. Stop telling us what we should worry about. Stick to policies. Or we will shut you out.

The Washington Post continues to type out copy amid lingering questions over its owner’s penis

Good. Her ideas on banking & consumer protection policies are awesome. No candidate is going to be perfect. I forgive her for being a bit too over-enthusiastic on claiming her American Indian ancestry back in her salad-days. A more acceptable youthful folly then doing blackface.

Do better WaPo.

Warren did nothing wrong - and most people agree she did nothing wrong. Get out of the media bubble.

The only thing lingering is bath faith reporting about anything lingering. It’s more like protect the tax cuts at all costs.

Why?

You deserve this ratio cause clearly you've learned nothing since 2016. butheremails

This isn’t a good look, WaPo.

Would everyone just stand up + SPEAK THE *TRUTH.

We've heard the story, you don't need to repeat it literally every fucking time she says or does anything else

Gfy

This is an awful headline. As many American families have,her family believes through family oral history that they have Native American genealogy. There are really no “lingering questions “ You need to stop taking DT’s manufactured slurs seriously

Readers: Please focus on the issues so we can make informed political decisions. WaPo: That’s cute.

Do better.

Give it a rest, seriously.

I wonder how many jokesters in this thread have actually heard her speeches or know one iota about the good that she’s done for most Americans. She’s a policy rockstar that’s got more cojones than most. Grow up and pay attention. warren2020

Can you imagine if Donald Trump went around telling people he was Native America what the you guys would be saying about him?

But her ancestry!

So is going to do a repeat of 2016 with over sensualizing SenWarren 'Native American' DNA just like they did, over sensualizing HillaryClinton emails! Move the Fu*k on WaPo STOP IT!

Why are you doing this again?

Pocaliar nice.

Trump is not going to bang you.

Ffs...who among us hasnt told erroneous family history stories. I mean they run Ancestry .com commercials whose entire concept is based on that.

Oh good grief. Stop bringing up this trivial baloney. Are you working on forcing 4 more years of Trump on up?

You're the reason 'it will take on a life of its own.' Why do YOU keep flogging it? Let Trump control who's electable? Didn't you learn anything from the emails reportage? Just. Stop. This.

THERE ARE NO LINGERING QUESTIONS!! SHE HAS ANSWERED THEM! STOP THIS!!!!

Shut up

Hey, maybe write this story instead. It's more important: 'McConnell set to retain Senate job amid lingering questions about his intentions to destroy the United States'

AnnieLinskey - Please. “Lingering questions?” If anything, we have more detailed information on her ancestry than anybody really needs. Maybe you’ll give us your hot take on her “likability” next? Enough with this garbage.

The only thing that’s lingering is the inability for MSM to ever learn something from previous mistakes. This headline is a fucking abomination. Shame on you.

How the fuck is any of that a lingering question?!

Really WaPo? Have you learned anything on how you managed HRC? Own some responsibility and stop this bs.

If they’re “lingering” it’s only you doing the lingering. The potty trained adult world doesn’t care now, never cared before, and no matter how many times the MSM tries to manufacture drama about it, NEVER will care. We’re not lingering. We have real issues to talk about.

Delete this and try again

'Lingering questions' is a JournalismFailure. Is AnnieLinskey a pundit now? Instead of reporting the facts from a story she herself wrote (see below), she's parroting bullshit political and media narratives. That's punditry, not journalism.

SQUAW NEEDS TO AMEND TRIBAL FURIES,,,,,,,WANTS TO APPEAR AS A MAD WHITE WOMAN,,,,,

HRC 2.0 with her native America fraud cases

*Warren set to announce candidacy amid questions over identity that we, the , insist must linger despite their having been exhaustively addressed.

So WaPo, if she called Mexicans rapists or said she could grab women by the p***y, would that be “lingering” or just business as usual? She’s not my first choice but this is But Her Emails. Be better.

I wonder if the native narrative helped her get college scholarship money?

You’re so Fair and Balanced!

What This is simply stupid.

What question over identity? She’s clearly Native American and has based her life on that lie.

“Democracy dies in darkness, but we’re making BANK”

Maybe she’s gonna tell all the media hacks trying to protect big money and ruin her to go eff themselves . Now that would be an annoucement I’d pay to see.

Hmmm....I can think of another Presidential candidate with “lingering questions” that will make your head spin....question is - can you?

There are no questions about her identity. What a stupid headline.

New headline proposal....... 'Washington Post set to re-elect Trump with bullshit stories like this.'

There are no lingering questions, but whatever. You should probably delete your account.

What questions are those?

WaPo gettin' on board the Trump Train again! butheremails

STOP THIS BULLSHIT NOW

The media has learned nothing since 2016. People outside the twitter verse simply don't care about those 'lingering issues'

We know who she is. Next!

The MSM seems to be the ONLY ones lingering over Ms Warrens identity. Never a story, no one cares. Smdh ButHerEmails

This will give a chance to steal more taxpayer money!

hey wapo...the only lingering question is why you are still flogging this issue that no one cares about..other than racist Donald Trump.

Eugene_Scott As compared to the corrupt, racist, criminal traitor in there now? Really?

Yhete ate NO QUESTIONS OF INDENTITY. THIS HEADLINE IS A LIE.

Maybe try two separate articles? 'Warren set to announce candidacy' and 'Post refuses to let questions about Warren's identity die.'

She is a fraud. If she lied on a resume or cheated on her spouse, she would be asked to resign.

Here we go again.

Real talk, Warren continually lying about her race is less disgusting than Kamala Harris sleeping her way into office. Call me crazy, but I don’t think “I’ll suck your d***.” would win a hypothetical President Harris many nuclear deals.

dont do it

'Whether she can move beyond a political problem' isn't a question over her identity, AnnieLinskey. Or do you have unanswered question about ewarren's identity?

Please don’t bother. You seem like a nice lady and all but half the time I can’t even hear you with your little soft voice.

flipsville

Girl bye

Just stop it.

Eugene_Scott There are no lingering questions. She answered them and apologized to those she needed to. Enough of this shit journalism.

I can identify her, and crap from news sources. That's Elizabeth Warren in the photo, and this is crap from a news source. Next.

The only people questioning her identity are the vapid press and the GOP.

julianzelizer Who is the person making these editorial decisions?

Doing Trump's bidding. How quaint

Nobody has 'lingering questions' except billionaire-owned media - who linger every five minutes at that particular watering hole. 🤣

julianzelizer

Eugene_Scott Actually the question has been asked and answered multiple times. butheremails 🙄

julianzelizer God almighty.

Eugene_Scott Please stop. Cover a story that matters. Send reporters wasting their talent on this non-story to the places where caged children continue to not be with their parents.

Waste of time,go home .Drink some beer

She can announce all that she wants , no charisma, doesn’t have what it takes .

Is this your new 'those emails'?

beating a dead horse. defining candidates only on a single controversy and not on actual substance is lazy and makes us all dumber.

AnnieLinskey Will she say she’ll be the first American Indian running for office

It's over before it even starts for her.

ma_nyc7 We have zero questions. Move on.

Not interested.

It’s not a question of her identity..it’s why did she feel the need to report minority status to gain advantage.

Dear Elizabeth, Hang tough! I can’t wait to vote for you!!♥️

Shut up WaPo. No questions about her identity.

Please give it up!!!! Ms. Warren it is uncomfortable watching you trudge ahead. Really, enough already!

You guys are gonna get Trump elected again aren’t ya?

That is OK. We are good without this.

She’s fixing to be this cycle’s Bernie. Clueless about not having a chance & thinning out the not-trump votes.

I see you have learned nothing over the last 3 years.

⬆️ Delete last five words in your title and find a picture of her smiling. There are many. Misogny HorseshoeProgressives

There are no lingering questions over identity. She is a liar and fraud. She stole positions by lying about her identity in order to get preferential treatment. She needs to be censured for her fraud and removed from the Senate. Not be afforded the opportunity to run for Prez.

It's over for her.

AnnieLinskey Many Native people are not declared citizens of a Native nation. That is her family history. No story here.

I thought she already announced her candidacy

Not interested in fake blown-up concerns abt the brilliant, fierce and well-qualified warren in her candidacy for president. No time for political cannibalism.

Please don't bother. Waste of everyones time and money.

The only lingering question is, why is this front page, but hacking our elections, Russian puppets in the White House, blackface and rape in VA, are hardly mentioned? She put out information she thought was true, from her parents, and theirs! Even the forms were with that truth!

Will she announce in English or in Cherokee? phony culturalappropriation lyingliberal ElizabethWarren

SenWarren don't. It's over. That heritage question will haunt you & the GOP will have a field day. We NEED you in the Senate.

Odd this story didn't get more attention... = Republican House Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy’s family benefited from U.S. program for minorities based on disputed ancestry DoYourDamnJob

emilyjodell We know who is making it linger butheremails

Cover the issues minus your overlay of 'false controversy' that doesnt matter.

Nope-

Donny has lied to our Faces over 7,000 times.(tk WaPo) In just 2 Years, while the Fricken PRESIDENT. Warren told One Partial Lie years and years ago. One her Mama, told her was true. Whats going on here

What is the issue here. She has some Indian blood in her plus stories from her family growing up. Get over it people there are other things alot more important than this.

Real nothing burger

I have no problem with her identity. She's a smart, hard working, self made woman.

Yeah, I hear she’s not a REAL Elizabeth!!!

Well, i think Sen Warren showed a reluctance to really clarify. I dont fault her for trying to gain advantage from our system if she needed it but it was a weak case and she wasnt forth coming. That being said how does that issue compare to the crimes of Trump and his cronies?

Newp. No lingering problem. Next.

LMAO, wouldn't surprise anyone with how the left overlooks assault, lying, and death

Amid being a compulsory liar, that what you mean?

DNA results are the media’s new emails. 🙄

She stole potential opportunities by faking her ethnicity. Enough is enough.

Because you make them linger! Enough with the “but her emails” treatment. AskedAndAnswered OverAndOverAgain

Didn't she already announce?

lmao

I have a question , if your blood says you’re Native American but cultural you aren’t a practicing Native American what is “legal” at claiming such? That is the real question here. If her blood dna states she is then

We still haven't seen realdonaldtrump's birth certificate!

Lingering? 1) Grew up being told of Native heritage. 2) Claimed that identity. 3) Learned that tribal citizenship is much more involved and precise than that. 4) Apologized. Can we move on now?

Brave but injured by her own actions.

Please don’t

We know she's not Native American and that she used false documents to achieve positions but does she really like beer? Enquiring minds want to know!

So she got her heritage messed up. Hell trump though he was human not realizing he had oraungatan ancestry. I bet many Americans have very little background on the heritage.

Under the one drop rule, i'm part choctaw and blackfoot....its still her heritage!

Don't do this, WaPo. Just stop it.

Give it up, Elizabeth. Your star was dimmed by your actions of yesteryear. Go support Kamala.

Where is the scrutiny about all of trumps immoral and fraudulent actions.

Hi, voter here. Real person here. Couldn’t care less here.

There is no question about her identity. She is not an enrolled member of any tribe. She is not eligible for enrollment in any tribe. She has no present or ancestral connection to a tribe. She is not Native.

She has no chance

😂😂😂

“Lingering questions of identity.”Get over it WaPo. Seems Warren believed family stories of some Native American heritage. It may not have been as she was told.(And it’s not clear her DNA totally disproves family lore.)Drumpf/Trump clan”passed”as Swedish. Focus on policy&results

Questions? Lol, there isn’t any question that she is a liar who lied about being a Native American for her own personal gain. But because she is a democrat, her disgusting actions are acceptable to the left.

Stop it! There are no lingering questions. And before you start attacking Harris and Klobuchar and Gillibrand...,we don’t mind black women marrying white guys, tough women, or women who dont like working with sexual harassers.

AnnieLinskey ElizabethWarren has same chance of being elected President as HarveyWeinstein ZERO

Is she grabbing pussies? Installed by Putin? Making millions from her position in government? No? I'm good then. The only question I have is 'Is she likable?'.

I don't think she has a good chance against Trump, but a big field gives us the best chance at finding the candidate who does, so I welcome her candidacy.

Is this fact or opinion fluff pieces?

Comeone... If this is the case, let's put Trump to the same standards and let's start with that McCain isn't a hero? If anyone else had said this they would have been OUT but no, Donald is obviously hold to another standard from media and the people.

.ewarren

It wont go far.... too much swirling around her with the lying already

Don’t waste your time

I have never seen so many LOONS anxious to waste a bunch of money. I think it is funny as hell.

This has been “lingering” for a year now because the Washington post can’t let it go

Leaving the teepee to run?

It’s a problem but she’ll rise above bc she is sorry. She was tone deaf and mistook DNA for experiential living -which with Native American claims you cannot do. Also, the use of questionable ancestry claims in job and university applications is almost an epidemic at this point.

Lingering questions over identity? I recall lingering Qs over candidate Trump’s treatment of women (he’s a sexual predator), his view on PoC (he’s racist), his business dealings (he’s corrupt), his ties to the Kremlin (he’s a treasonous weasel). And yet, media gave him a pass. 🤔

Interestingly, looking at this thread the only people upset are white. I'm native, do not speak for all natives, but I do not know anybody that thinks this is an issue.

Just imagine the explosive outrage had she and her family exploited undocumented workers for decades. The horror....

She lied...

Lingering questions? Lordy, we’ve moved on. Give it a rest. If you aren’t going to linger on lying about porn star hush money, then don’t linger on this.

i have reservations about her announcement

If that the only thing the media and her enemies have on her , they got nothing

A lot of people have reservations about this

NO LIZ. THE HANDWRITTEN 'NATIVE AMERICAN' DESIGNATION WAS A LIE. STAND DOWN.. SO SORRY. YOU CAN BEGIN YOUR PRESIDENCY WITH A LIE.

Yep that's America, ignore the intelligence, the drive, the good, more importantly is 'So where are you people from?' Fukking Pilgrims

WaPo: Never mind the mobster in the oval, just LOOK at how she checked that box on Native American identity at Harvard. Tsk, tsk.

She already lost.

There are no questions. What's wrong with you?

Yes great news! Going to be fun to watch Survival Dem Primary Island . It's a bell curve with peak crazies in the middle.

the question is not about identity, it is about membership, she apologized, get over it

Wtf? What lingering questions? This hasn't been addressed over and over again. Clearly wapo is going to repeat 2016 email coverage.

This is the media’s new but her emails! In attempt to hold female politicians to a higher standard and try to torpedo their campaigns.

But: Her Emails!

Why bother, your wasting your time and money.

Warren is an absolute champion for the working class. Her positions against abuse by the financial industry are deadly important. Don’t let this identity BS distract from what’s important.

Question is, when she officially files the paperwork to run, what will she fill in the blank for race?

Warren should have run against Hillary. Her time has passed.

why this approach-she has addressed this a hundred times-are you WP gonna treat her like the NYT treated H Clinton?

😂

No questions. We all know.

She thinks she can become president on scholarship...

There are no doubts about her identity: she's a white woman who appropriated minority status for personal professional gain. In other words, she lied.

There is no question about my identity. I took a DNA test and it said I am mostly black!

She’s disgusting.

American I n d I a n - Elizabeth, I used Affirmative Actions falsely to get preferential treatment, Warren. Best of luck. 😂

She believed what her family told her. I've been told I'm of German and French descent. That's what I believe because that's what I was told. If I had a DNA test, I could be completely wrong. The Press is beating a dead horse like they did with Hillary and her emails. Just stop.

Lingering questions over identity!?!?!?!? C'mon WaPo!! Make your boss proud and stick with the issues.

No lingering questions. This is a dead horse issue, only kept alive to use as a weapon if she runs.

'Warren set to announce candidacy in defiance of attacks by racist opposition' ftfy

White lifd needs to be taught better. Asian still have strong intelligence and moral values

But her emails!

What lingering questions. She lied 😂

...and yet I feel nothing.
