明尼苏达州民主党联邦参议员候选人佩吉·弗拉纳根向捐赠者宣传自己有望成为首位出任美国联邦参议员的原住民女性，这一宣传也将目光投向了她的一位重要背书人——参议员伊丽莎白·沃伦，后者此前有关原住民身份的主张曾引发长达数年的政治争议。
“近250年来，从未有原住民女性担任过美国参议员。现在是改变这一现状的时候了，”邮件中写道。“我是奥吉布瓦族人，是白地球族引以为傲的一员。我的家族属于狼族。我们狼族的使命是绝不抛弃任何人——这一直是我的行事准则……目前，美国参议院中没有原住民的声音。如果我赢得这场选举，我们就能改变这一局面。”
在其整个职业生涯中，沃伦曾自称有原住民血统，她在得克萨斯州律师注册卡上填写了“美国印第安人”，并在《美国法学院协会名录》中将自己描述为少数族裔。自2019年以来，沃伦已经收回了自己的原住民身份表述，澄清自己并非有色人种，也不是任何部落的公民，并表示她本不应将自己归类为美国印第安人。

“哇，箭已射出，”播客主持人迈克尔·邓肯在谈及这封邮件时写道。
沃伦曾在明尼苏达州民主党联邦参议员初选中支持弗拉纳根。
“明尼苏达州联邦参议员民主党候选人佩吉·弗拉纳根刚刚通过民主党全国委员会的名单发送了一封筹款邮件，承认伊丽莎白·沃伦并非原住民，”保守派评论员史蒂夫·盖斯特在X平台上发帖称，并补充道，“‘假印第安人’这下不好过了。”
“有人去看看伊丽莎白·沃伦吗？”共和党全国委员会在X平台上调侃道。
“伊丽莎白·沃伦刚拿着她的和平烟斗回家发脾气去了，”另一位用户回复道。

前总统唐纳德·特朗普曾以给沃伦贴上“波卡洪塔斯”的标签来嘲讽她自称的原住民血统。两人的争执在2018年达到顶峰，当时沃伦接受了基因检测，结果显示她的原住民血统占比在0.1%至1.6%之间。
“不好意思？她怎么敢这样侮辱伊丽莎白·沃伦？”自由派评论员布拉德·波伦博反讽道。

多位X平台用户发布了AI生成的图片，图中沃伦身着原住民服饰，神情沮丧或愤怒，以此回应这封筹款邮件。
“伊丽莎白·沃伦正在弗拉纳根头上发表土地确认声明，”《纽约邮报》专栏作家柯尔斯滕·弗莱明调侃道。
“我是切罗基族的一员，所以我可以这么说：这俩人应该开个原住民议事会好好聊聊，”播客戴夫·范德瓦勒开玩笑道。

Warren’s ancestry saga roars back after Dem ally touts Native Senate first: ‘Arrows fired’

Minnesota Democratic Senate nominee Peggy Flanagan is pitching donors on the prospect of becoming the first Native American woman to serve in the U.S. Senate — drawing attention to one of her prominent endorsers, Sen. Elizabeth Warren, whose past claims of Native American identity became a yearslong political controversy.
“In almost 250 years, there’s never been a Native woman serving in the US Senate. It’s time to change that,” the email reads. “I am Ojibwe and a proud member of the White Earth Nation. My family is the Wolf Clan. The mission of my clan is to never leave anyone behind — and that’s been my guiding principle … Right now, there are no Native voices in the US Senate. If I win this race, we can change that.”
Throughout her career, Warren identified herself as a Native American, writing “American Indian” on her Texas bar-registration card and describing herself as a minority in the Association of American Law Schools directory. Since 2019, Warren has walked back her indigenous identity, clarifying that she is not a person of color nor a citizen of a tribe, and stating that she should not have identified herself as an American Indian.

“Wow, arrows fired,” podcast host Michael Duncan wrote of the email.
Warren supported Flanagan in Minnesota’s Democratic Senate primary.
“The Democrat nominee for Senate in Minnesota, Peggy Flanagan , just sent out a fundraising email on the DNC list that admits that Elizabeth Warren is NOT Native American,” conservative commentator Steve Guest posted to X, adding, “tough break for Fauxcahontas.”
“Has anybody checked on Elizabeth Warren?” the Republican Party quipped on X.
“Elizabeth Warren just took her peace pipe and went home to throw a tantrum,” another user replied.

President Donald Trump famously lampooned Warren’s claimed ancestry by labeling her “Pocahontas.” The feud between the two culminated in Warren taking a genetic test in 2018, which found she was between 0.1% and 1.6% Native American.
“Excuse me? How dare she disrespect Elizabeth Warren like that?” libertarian commentator Brad Polumbo wrote, ironically.

Multiple X users posted AI-generated images of Warren in Native American garb looking dejected or angry in response to the fundraising email.
“Elizabeth Warren is doing a land acknowledgement on Flanagan’s head,” New York Post columnist Kirsten Fleming quipped.
“I can say this because I am part of the Cherokee Nation, but these two should powwow over this,” podcaster Dave Van de Walle joked.
