Update: Just
hours after Elizabeth Warren waved her newly minted credentials as a
Native American, and demanded Trump pay up on his offer, The Globe issued a 'correction' that might just steal the jam out of her exuberant donut:
As The Globe sheepishly admits...
* * *
After releasing DNA results "proving" that she has Native American ancestry, Senator Elizabeth Warren on Monday called out President Trump on his offer to pay $1 million if she was able to prove her heritage.
Warren fired off a series of tweets telling Trump to "Please send the check to the National Indigenous Women’s Resource Center."
On Monday morning, White House counselor Kellyanne Conway brushed off the results of Warren's test as "junk science," telling reporters: "I haven’t looked at the test. I know that everybody likes to pick their junk science or sound science depending on the conclusion, it seems some days... But I haven’t looked at the DNA test and it really doesn’t interest me."
***
In what we are sure will likely engender a tweet response from President Trump, potential 2020 Democrat presidential nominee, Senator Elizabeth Warren proudly released results of a DNA test that suggests she does have a distant Native American ancestor in her lineage.

Correction: Due to a math error, a story about Elizabeth Warren misstated the ancestry percentage of a potential 10th generation relative. It should be 1/1,024.
As The Globe sheepishly admits...
"The inherent imprecision of the six-page DNA analysis could provide fodder for Warren’s critics."Indeed it might.

Earlier Monday, Warren publicly released the results of a DNA test analyzed by Stanford University professor and DNA expert, Carlos Bustaente - tweeting the results.By the way, @realDonaldTrump: Remember saying on 7/5 that you’d give $1M to a charity of my choice if my DNA showed Native American ancestry?

"My family (including Fox News-watchers) sat together and talked about what they think of @realDonaldTrump's attacks on our heritage. And yes, a famous geneticist analyzed my DNA and concluded that it contains Native American ancestry."
When asked what he thought of Warren's DNA test, Trump said "who cares" - while denying that he offered $1 million, adding "I didn't say that... you better read it again."My family (including Fox News-watchers) sat together and talked about what they think of @realDonaldTrump’s attacks on our heritage.

During a July 5 rally in Montana, Trump said: "I’m going to get one of those little [DNA testing] kits and in the middle of the debate, when she proclaims she’s of Indian heritage... And we will say, ‘I will give you a million dollars, paid for by Trump, to your favorite charity, if you take the test and it shows you’re an Indian.' And we’ll see what she does. I have a feeling she will say no, but we will hold it for the debates."“Who cares?” Trump says in response to Elizabeth Warren releasing DNA test results showing Native American ancestry #tictocnews pic.twitter.com/o6SP1FktUo— TicToc by Bloomberg (@tictoc) October 15, 2018

The test found “strong evidence” she had a Native American in her family tree dating six to 10 generations back, the Globe reported.My family (including Fox News-watchers) sat together and talked about what they think of @realDonaldTrump’s attacks on our heritage.

“I’m not enrolled in a tribe and only tribes determine tribal citizenship. I understand and respect that distinction but my family history is my family history,” Warren said in a video explaining the results posted to her Twitter account.Warren said this summer that she’s not yet decided to run for president and is focused on winning re-election to the Senate in the November midterm elections, and as Bloomberg reports, a CNN poll released Sunday found her running fourth in the list of potential Democrats with support from 8 percent of those listed. Former Vice President Joe Biden lead the poll with support from 33 percent of respondents.
“Trump can say whatever he wants about me, but mocking Native Americans or any group in order to try and get at me? That’s not what America stands for.”

- Elizabeth Warren just owned herself after releasing a DNA test
confirming that she's as little as 1/1024th Native American - about half
the percentage of the average white person.
So Elizabeth Warren is *possibly* 1/1024 (0.09%) Native American.— Michael Ahrens (@michael_ahrens) October 15, 2018
Scientists say the average European-American is 0.18% Native American. (https://t.co/XU0l1JQO1L)
That'd make Warren even less Native American than the average European-American.
Adding to the absurdity are two major corrections by the Boston Globe (which has become the media mouthpiece of Warren's 2020 damage control efforts of late), letting readers know that "Due to a math error, a story about Elizabeth Warren misstated the ancestry percentage of a potential 10th generation relative. It should be 1/1,024," and later updating it to "between 1/64th and 1/1,024th Native American."
The reactions to Warren's botched "reveal" have ranged from tenderfoot to savage
Elizabeth Warren has to go back 10 generations to find a non-white person in her family lineage. Warren is extremely, extraordinarily, almost completely white. Way whiter than the average whitey. That's the real headline here.— Matt Walsh (@MattWalshBlog) October 15, 2018Who self-identifies with a group making up 1/64th or less of their genetic ancestry?@elizabethforma, that’s who.— MaƱ-Made Material™ (@ManMadeMaterial) October 15, 2018

White people can be so out of touch.Hilariously, Warren’s only Native American ancestor may have actually lived at the time of Pocahontas.— Ben Shapiro (@benshapiro) October 15, 20181/1024@elizabethforma’s percentage of Native American heritage is about the same as her chances of ever being POTUS.— John Cardillo (@johncardillo) October 15, 2018So for all you who are clearly idiots, 1/1,024th means you're super dooper white. It means anyone with that % claiming to be Native American is a fraud. . . Reminds me of Da Nang Dick aka Senator Vietnevermind aka @SenBlumenthal. Cute stories that have nothing to do with facts.— Ned Ryun (@nedryun) October 15, 2018
The Daily Caller's Benny Johnson laid out the Elizabeth Warren fraud in a 10-part tweetstorm which, in a rational world, would end the debate.
Every Time Elizabeth Warren Has Lied About Her Native American Heritage:— Benny (@bennyjohnson) October 15, 2018
(Thread)
1. Elizabeth Warren self-identified as a "Native American" in the The Association of American Law Schools Directory of law professors in every edition printed between 1986 -1995.2. After becoming a professor at the University of Pennsylvania, Warren demanded the University change her faculty listed ethnicity from “white” to “Native American.”— Benny (@bennyjohnson) October 15, 20183. Warren was identified by Harvard Law as a “woman of color.” Harvard promoted Warren’s hire as expanding their campus diversity by hiring a woman with "minority background" onto their faculty.— Benny (@bennyjohnson) October 15, 20184. Warren claimed that her mother and father had to elope due to her mom’s obvious Indian heritage and the white bigotry of her father’s family. Here is a photo of Warren's mom: pic.twitter.com/B2zSHdNkXL— Benny (@bennyjohnson) October 15, 2018Here is video of Warren telling this story: "My mom and dad were very much in love and they wanted to get married. My father's parents said 'Absolutely not because she's part Cherokee and Delaware.' After fighting it they eloped." pic.twitter.com/3lGCf9xGmY— Benny (@bennyjohnson) October 15, 20185. Warren submitted multiple recipes for the Indian cookbook “Pow Wow Chow” and signed her name, “Elizabeth Warren - Cherokee” pic.twitter.com/Fr3ECGsUa2— Benny (@bennyjohnson) October 15, 20186. Warren used offensive, racially charged language to defend her claims of Native American heritage, declaring that her family had “high cheekbones” like “all the Indians do.”— Benny (@bennyjohnson) October 15, 2018
Here is video of that moment: pic.twitter.com/DzU60yowHe7. Warren has now claimed that she *may* have 1/1024th Indian DNA. This is equally problematic since DNA science proves that the average white American has .18% Indian DNA, far more that Warren's .098% (lowest estimate according to study) https://t.co/tNwZcdIDeS— Benny (@bennyjohnson) October 15, 20188. Multiple members of Warren's direct family have disputed her claims of a "proud Native American heritage." They deny the Senator's Indian heritage stories fervently:https://t.co/iF53pWxymP— Benny (@bennyjohnson) October 15, 20189. Warren's DNA report did not measure actual Native American DNA. The report actually measured Colombian, Mexican and Peruvian DNA. Of which Warren *may* have a tiny, tiny fraction - possibly. pic.twitter.com/SK7LExbawl— Benny (@bennyjohnson) October 15, 201810. It is very difficult to argue that Warren did not commit racial fraud. She used the advantages in the system to advance her career with no evidence (to this day) that she is actually Native American. Democrats defending her behavior on this point is dubious - at best.— Benny (@bennyjohnson) October 15, 2018
