On Monday, the far-left outlet published the results of Warren’s DNA test, something she has been under pressure to take after her repeated claims to be part Cherokee were debunked. President Trump regularly uses Warren’s false claim of Indian ancestry to ridicule the Senator, and now that she is eyeing a 2020 presidential run, she is hoping to clear this up.
The Globe, however, and reporter Annie Linskey (pictured) published the story as a vindication of Warren’s longstanding claim she is part Cherokee.
