Senator Elizabeth Warren in 2020

The first of the year 2019 has hardly begun and with the news of Senator Elizabeth Warren throwing her hat into the 2020 Presidential Campaign, those same people who insist on arresting Hillary Clinton for bogus emails are now attacking the Massachusetts Senator.  Taken directly from Trumps lips to their own, they have labeled Warren as a racist, as well as anyone who defends her.  And it wasn’t men who were bitch witching her, it was women (again).

When confronted with the question, what makes Warren racist, I was simply told to Google it, because none of these women could say off the top of their heads why this viscous attack was taking place on another female presidential candidate.  

Well ladies, I Goggled it and I have not found the first shred of evidence that Elizabeth Warren is a racist; only your personal opinions and you know what they say about opinions – their like assholes, everyone has one.  

In my search for the truth, I did stumble upon a statements made by the Massachusetts Senator that included the word racist.  “Let’s just start with the hard truth about our criminal justice system, “Ms. Warren said.  “It’s racist.  It is.” (Quoted by the WashingtonTimes.com)  

Sorry, but there is plenty of evidence to support Warren’s statement regarding the justice system here in America.  Google it!

Still, there are those of you who attack her heritage, like Donald Trump who said he would pay Elizabeth Warren a million dollars if she took a DNA test to prove her bloodline.  She did take that test, and yet it appears that that wasn’t proof enough for Donald Trump and these silly people who cling to the latest phrase, “privileged white people,” as they hide behind their own entitlement.

Anyone with any common sense should be able to see beyond this facade Trumped up by one of the most privileged white men around.  Do you know of any other person in the world whose heritage has been challenged?  
When Johnny Depp announced he had a Cherokee ancestor, no one made him take a test.  He’s not a card-carrying Indian.  His words, “My great-grandmother was quite a bit Native American, she grew up Cherokee or maybe Creek Indian.” (Quoted by Entertainment - mom.me/entertainment/24684-celebrities-you-never-knew-were-native-american/item/johnny-depp-native-american/ )
Has anyone ever made you take a test to prove who you say you are?  No one has ever asked me to, and I have been calling myself a Ger-Wop-okee for years now (German/Italian/Cherokee).  I even reported on the last U.S. Census as Gerwopokee.  The first person has yet to ask me to prove it.
So why in the hell would it be ok for Donald Trump to make fun of Senator Warren’s heritage by calling her Pocahontas and telling her to prove it?  And please, explain to me how it’s ok for you to do the same?  Do you realize how racist you sound when you feed into this worthless notion of blood quantum?  Do you even know what blood quantum is?

Blood Quantum was invented by the U.S. Government as a way to take away land from Native America.  By definition it is the total percentage of your blood that can be contributed to tribal nations.   This only applies to Native Americans, no other nationalities, which is a racist practice within itself. 
If you have ever taken a DNA test through Ancestry.com or 23andMe, and compared it to your siblings, you’ll see that you most likely do not share the same blood quantum. In addition, actual card-carrying Indians (a minimum of ¼ Native American blood percentages according to the government) who have taken these DNA test are reporting Middle Eastern and/or North African, as in the case of the Cherokee, and still other Native Americans are testing as Asian. 
  
And in the end, does it really fucking matter?  We’re all humans and most of us share the same goal – to live as we like, to pursue our dreams, and to be happy.  But know this, if you’re calling Senator Warren a racist because she has a blood ancestor who was Cherokee, she’s not the racist, you are. 

And if you’re a woman, I feel for you for feeling so little of yourself.  If we are ever to gain equal representation within our government, we must support each other.  Think before you follow the words of another; especially a racist white man of privilege who has absolutely no respect for the opposite sex.

You're What?

When I was a kid my momma told me that I could be a good person, or I could be a bad girl.    The choice was mine.   But what’s good in one persons mind may not be so hot from another’s perspective.   Kind of like Democrats and Republicans - depending on which side you’re on, depends on who is good and who is bad, from an individual perspective that is.   Some of us hear the words Conservative or Republican and right away an image of some rich, stiff lip, gun toting, racist, bible thumpin’, white guy comes to mind.   And still, when others hear Liberal or Democrat the illusion flips to the brown, lazy, impoverished, free loading, gay, baby killer.   It would be comical, except there are quite a few of us who seriously prescribe to this silly way of classifying each other.    This classification of government representatives is a false façade to say the least anyway.   Like did you know it was actually George W. Bush who implemented...

What Is Said, by Hope Wabuke

             The following was taken from the book, "All The Women In My Family Sing."  It was written by Hope Wabuke.                   On June 16, 1944, George Stinney, a fourteen year old Black boy, was executed by the state of South Carolina for the murder of two white girls.   George was so short that he carried a Bible to use as a booster seat for the electric chair.   He was so young that the death mask would not fit his face.   He took five full minutes to die, the mask slipping off to show his eyes melting and his body convulsing.               There was no evidence that George had committed the murders.   There were no actual witnesses to the murders – in fact, George had an alibi for the whole day in question.   The “confession,” which George denied having made and which had not been recorded or...

Why I Do Not Support Trump

          “ I like my Presidents to not associate with foreign entities to better themselves. I also like them to not sit on the shitter tweeting in the middle of the night. I like them not to call Dictators his best friend and our allies our enemies. I like someone that can take criticism and not start name calling and throwing twitter melt downs every time he doesn't get his way. I like presidents that don't say they would date their daughter. I like Presidents that haven't filed bankruptcy 5 times and screwed over working class people doing it. I like Presidents that don't give themselves and their billionaire friends a windfall tax break and then cry about immigration now when it was happening and could have been handled under a fully GOP government for 2 years. I like Presidents that don't call war hero's weak. I like Presidents that don't speak ill of the deceased war veterans of this country. I like Presidents that didn't draft dodge.   Is that e...
