Please tell us Brian Fallon didn’t play the Hillary email card because the media is actually paying attention to the fact that Elizabeth Warren knowingly lied about her heritage as a Native American for DECADES.
Even he wouldn’t do that, right?
This is 2016 emails coverage all over again.https://t.co/IROk7umVrE

Ohhhhhhh FFS.
If Warren was running as a Republican Brian would be SUPER outraged and blaming Trump.
C’mon man.
Let's be honest: If Warren had an R next to her name, Fallon would be beyond outraged that she tried to pass herself off as a Native American for 3 decades. And he would be calling for her head, not complaining about the press covering the story. https://t.co/QINIHYU6P3

Duh.
Brian, it is your side that has made cultural appropriation a vile sin.
You should be more outraged than anyone, unless that is an empty charge only to be used as a convenient political tool and nothing more. https://t.co/Vp8Xhh1RfA— Brad Slager – Ano de Cinema Mal ? ??? (@MartiniShark) February 7, 2019
It IS a convenient political tool and it always has been for the Democrats.
Answered for him.
Odd that someone who works for @WeDemandJustice is so willfully ignoring such a blatant injustice, but you worked for Hillary and Holder, so none of us are surprised…

Not surprised at all.
You lost that one too.

*sad trombone*
Now take a look at THIS:
Respectfully, this is a very privileged take. Native communities and communities of color have questions for her that she hasn’t answered.
— Versha Sharma (@versharma) February 7, 2019
She said ‘respectfully,’ so you know this is not gonna be good for Bri’s argument.
These communities are totally cool giving trump the win on this and take down one his main opponents? It’s that worth it to them? Huh.
— Beragon (@Beragon) February 7, 2019
But Trump.
Dude.
This is such a bad faith interpretation. No one wants to ‘take her down’ or ‘wants Trump to win.’ They want honest, thoughtful answers.
— Versha Sharma (@versharma) February 7, 2019
Many people are happy she finally apologized – that just happened in the last week. Others want to hear more. Give them time to process it.
— Versha Sharma (@versharma) February 7, 2019
Having an honest conversation about interrogating progressives’ own privilege and blind spots in Feb 2019 is not going to help Trump win.

And THERE is the real FUBAR on this thread.
This is gonna be FUN.
