A popular black radio host shredded Democrat presidential candidate and Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren about her fake minority claims.
The senator who claimed to be Native American for decades appeared on “The Breakfast Club,” with Charlamagne tha God on Friday.
It is an appearance that many Democrat candidates make to pander for the African American vote and it is generally simple.

Promise reparations and other stuff you cannot deliver, get a pat on the back and go back to campaigning, but that is not what happened to Sen. Warren.

“When did you find out that you weren’t [Native American]?” “Were there any benefits to that?” “You sound like the original Rachel Dolezal a little bit,” he said.
“I learned about my family the same way most people learned about their family … and [being Native American] it’s what I believed. But I’m not a person of color, I’m not a citizen of a tribe, and I shouldn’t have done it,” Warren said.

“What I can do is try to be a good partner.” She said. “What I want to see us do in education is get rid of the student loan debt and make an investment in the historically black colleges and universities. I want to see us in housing, hit redlining head on.”
Another host gave Sen. Warren some help by mentioning the show’s favorite topic for Democrats to pander to the audience with, reparations.
“I see you talk about reparations as well,” the host said. “So wait, your family told you you were Native American? Charlamagne tells me I’m Dominican, but I don’t believe him.”
“How long did you hold on to that? Because there was some report that said you were Native American on your Texas bar license, and then said you were Native American on some documents when you were a professor at Harvard, so why you’d do that?” Charlamagne said.
“So it’s what I believed, you know, that’s, like I said, it’s what I learned from my family,” Sen. Warren said, continuing the same argument.

“When did you find out that you weren’t?” he said.
“Well … I’m not a person of color, I’m not a citizen of a tribe, and tribal citizenship is an important distinction and not something I am,” she said.
“Were there any benefits to that?” he said.
“No! Boston Globe did a full investigation, it never affected nothin’ about my family, never affected any job I ever got.” She said.

“You’re kinda like the original Rachel Dolezal a little bit—a white woman pretending to be black,” he said to the senator.
“Well, this is what I learned from my family,” she said.
