Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) has been using a fabricated tale of injustice a cornerstone of her 2020 campaign pitch – telling people that she was told not to return to teaching after a single year because she was “visibly pregnant,” and the principal “did what principals did in those days … wish me luck and hire someone else for the job.”
Warren’s claim about her dismissal from the Riverdale Elementary School came under scrutiny last week when the journalist Meagan Day of Jacobin magazine noted that Warren’s story appeared to have changed over the years. Day pointed to a 2007 interview Warren gave at the University of California-Berkeley in which she suggested that she left her teaching job after realizing the graduate school classes required for her to obtain a teaching certificate weren’t going to “work out for [her].” –Free Beacon
Warren then claimed:
“I was married at nineteen and then graduated from college [at the University of Houston] after I’d married,” adding “My first year post-graduation, I worked — it was in a public school system but I worked with the children with disabilities. I did that for a year, and then that summer I actually didn’t have the education courses, so I was on an ’emergency certificate,’ it was called.”
“I went back to graduate school and took a couple of courses in education and said, ‘I don’t think this is going to work out for me,'” Warren continued. “I was pregnant with my first baby, so I had a baby and stayed home for a couple of years, and I was really casting about, thinking, ‘What am I going to do?‘”
Warren had been working as a speech pathologist at New Jersey’s Riverdale Elementary School during the 1970 – 1971 school year, according to the Beacon.
On Monday, the Washington Free Beacon dealt another blow to Warren’s story – publishing minutes from a Riverdale Board of Education meeting from April 21, 1971 which reveal the board voted unanimously on a motion to extend Warren’s contract for a “2nd year” of teaching.
Minutes of an April 21, 1971, Riverdale Board of Education meeting obtained by the Washington Free Beacon show that the board voted unanimously on a motion to extend Warren a “2nd year” contract for a two-days-per-week teaching job. That job is similar to the one she held the previous year, her first year of teaching. Minutes from a board meeting held two months later, on June 16, 1971, indicate that Warren’s resignation was “accepted with regret.” –Free Beacon
What’s more, the minutes from a June 16, 1971 meeting include: “The resignation of Mrs. Elizabeth Warren, speech correctionist effective June 30, 1971 was accepted with regret.“
Sounds like they really liked her – and now she’s going around throwing (likely deceased) Principal Peter J. Polo under the bus for a callous act he didn’t commit.

As the Beacon notes, Warren’s latest lie comes after her ‘team’ orchestrated a massive image-rehabilitation campaign after her claims of Native American ancestry unraveled into a botched effort to prove she was actually part Indian. After Warren took a DNA test which her team misinterpreted due to a math error, she self-owned by announcing herself to be as little as 1/1024th Native American. Shortly thereafter, the Cherokee Nation condemned her for her “continued claims of tribal heritage.”
“A DNA test is useless to determine tribal citizenship. Current DNA tests do not even distinguish whether a person’s ancestors were indigenous to North or South America. Sovereign tribal nations set their own legal requirements for citizenship, and while DNA tests can be used to determine lineage, such as paternity to an individual, it is not evidence for tribal affiliation. Using a DNA test to lay claim to any connection to the Cherokee Nation or any tribal nation, even vaguely, is inappropriate and wrong. It makes a mockery out of DNA tests and its legitimate uses while also dishonoring legitimate tribal governments and their citizens, who ancestors are well documented and whose heritage is prove. Senator Warren is undermining tribal interests with her continued claims of tribal heritage.”
– Cherokee Nation Secretary of State Chuck Hoskin, Jr.
Maybe this is why Twitter is abuzz with rumors of Hillary Clinton putting the ol’ pantsuit on again to try and knock Trump off the mountain.

Fakeachontas is a habitual liar and a fraud. And this is the dems pick, tells you a lot. she did what every truly woman desires, stayed at home and was a mother. But that is such in bad taste and frowned upon today by the left because babies are commodities at best and nuisance at worst. I love knowing hildebeast is getting her hopes up again. She is such a bitter vile angry human. The fact that she would face the agony of defeat twice would make it a day as great as when Janet Reno died and went straight to fucking hell. Burn in hell Janet, burn..in…hell.
You seem to have forgotten her loss to 0bama in ’08. She was on her way to her coronation when he came out of nowhere to trounce her for the dem nomination.
No way…there is no possible way that freak could be pregnant. Of course she was lying.

Fraud, lying and calumny seem to be the largest and most prevalent characteristics of the Fabian left……
They could not get elected to dog catcher if they told you what they really wanted to do. Beta let the cat out of the bag when he told us “Hell yes, we are going to take away your AR-15.
The serial lying is pathological. I suspect there’s a very fragile psyche beneath the crone exterior and if elected POTUS would crack under the strain. She’s a nervous breakdown waiting to happen.
Lying is a strategy for obtaining resources and as long as it works it reinforces the behavior. A liar has a distinct advantage over those who are honest- and by that I don’t mean pure of heart, who never utter a fib- but those who would never consider gaining advantage over others by making something up out of whole cloth. They play the same game that we all do, they simply ignore one of the primary rules. When you play Monopoly you receive $200 each time you pass Go!, but a liar, in effect, is able to pull money from the bank whenever they choose to as long as they are never caught. In the current political sphere there is the added advantage of having the entire 5th Estate provide complete coverage even when they are caught, Elizabeth Warren being a prime example. Her lies about her Native American heritage should have driven her from office and right now it looks like she is at the front of the primary pack. The only explanation for that is that the institutions have been so thoroughly co-opted by the forces of criminality that lies are no longer considered evidence of malicious wrongdoing.
So there we are.
Until such time as some form of traditional moral value regains primacy, deceitful behavior is now a mainstream strategy for obtaining political power and it is widely accepted by the population as legitimate.
The lying with these Pols goes deeper than the ability to tap the $200…it is an integral part of their personality. Lieawatha is actually intelligent and successful (in her shitty leftist pond) but that has never been good enough for her…..she wanted to “get over” on the rubes. She wants to cheat to win….it brings much more satisfaction to her than simply succeeding on her own merits. That’s the difference…she wants to feel superior to the great unwashed by deceiving them consciously……I suspect it gives her a special thrill up her ….if you know what I mean. That simply marks her as a psychopath, a high functioning but deeply disturbed personality. Given the power of the presidency, I can’t imagine the shit she would get engaged in.
This is the real problem with the media….by not doing their job of vetting both sides the crazy leftists are not being weeded out (she should have never gotten to Harvard much less a Democratic primary debate stage). I am confident that her lying touches every aspect of her life….it is who she is much like the scorpion and the frog……as a special ed. teacher in a small school system she would not have done damage to the nation…..the damage she has inflicted already from her perch at Harvard and as a Senator has already been significant, look out if she wins in 2020…..you ain’t seen nothing yet.
Liar is a good indication of a psychopath/sociopath since psychopaths and sociopaths lie without any morality holding them back. Most politicians are liars = most politicians are psychopaths. Most of the mainstream media are liars = most of the mainstream media are psychopaths. I could go on…
She committed fraud to help pay for her education. Time to move onto the next nutjob Democrat that wants to destroy the country.
I can’t imagine what guy would ‘hit’ that evil bitch. Maybe it was a lesbo?
I’m sure alcohol was involved, lots and lots of alcohol. Many times, I began looking for any port in a storm when closing time was getting near and can understand how it might have happened naturally.
Got a new PC – see if I can get my id working again

Looks solved, D-man.
Been seeing you over on Sundance’s site lately, or is that another by the same tag?
Keep the platform advised, from a local perspective, when Thursday’s activities commence, pls.
Particularly the antics of Antifa’s call to arms, and Oathkeepers posse round up efforts for the scheduled rally.
Stay at a safe distance, Dutch.
Tennessee Tux on a date:
We never had any rules to our competition. Sometimes a bet would be made about a particular girl and who could get her to leave with them, but usually, it was every man for himself and don’t go home alone.
There is a reason she is known by the moniker Lieawatha. She has shown a great propensity to distort the truth to suit her needs. The next thing you know, she will claim she landed in Serbia under sniper fire, the killing of Ambassador Stevens was caused by a video or if you like your insurance, you can keep your insurance.
I have thought of her as:
Liar, liar head dress on fire.
Everybody knows she’s a liar and fraud. That’s already been well established. Another lie or fraud isn’t going to break her campaign, because the lying, corrupt mainstream media won’t make a big deal about it.
Excellent observation, grasshopper.
Show me a politician that doesn’t lie. Oh, you can’t? Imagine that.
True. Anyone who goes after her for not having been sufficiently discriminated against will just make her more beloved by women voters. Better to go after her for the “stolen valor” angle of pretending she was a “person of color”.
Show me a woman that doesn’t lie. Oh, you can’t? Imagine that.
Sorry, MC, you were wide open for that pass.
A Hail Mary?
Yep, no defenders around her.
Define “lie”
Its like the meaning of “is”.
I guess her new name is Liarkahontas .
Pocahonky.
A variation on the old joke : How do you know when Lizzi is lying?
Only when she is talking…?
It would be funny if it turned out her kids were actually adopted.
Would it be racist to point out her brown “Native American” contact lenses in the video, as opposed to her baby blues in the photo?
Good thing we’ve got you guys to spread chaos and confusion in the name of Trump.
Liawatha is absolutely batshit crazy, and the Democrats know she can’t get elected. Democrats also know that “Son of a bitch got fired” Biden is now a zombie and will probably be back in Delaware by Thanksgiving. Bernie the Jew has a bad ticker, and “Heels Up!” Harris has the gravitas of a nightcrawler coming up for a breath of air after a heavy rain. I’m starting to think that the Democrats think their only hope is to get Mr. Trump et al. purged so Pelosi becomes President. Then again, maybe Hillary will announce she’s going to run again.
