  Did the democrat party know that Elizabeth Warren lied about being of American Indian heritage. Do you want to kick her out of the senate. Probably not, hypocrisy much
context: It is my understanding, from the news this morning, that yes they knew. The Democrats knew, and tried to tell the media, including the New York Times. The media didn't care, instead focussing on 'crime'. >
  
  Was there anything Democrats could have done themselves to get the word out? >

  No independent left-leaning media outlet you could go to? ProPublica, Mother Jones? No running ads about it? What's opposition research for if you can't do anything with it? >
  
  Yea, or perhaps his opponent could have mentioned it during the campaign? >
  
  Zimmerman apparently DID in a debate… and got it turned around on him. Santos called HIM the liar. NY3 believed the lies. This is all on the voters, and they should be soundly ridiculed for their stupidity. >
  
  Well, I gotta say, he sure knew how to present himself to get elected. Seems it truly is all about the optics. I agree it's pitiful. >
  
  What’s amazing to me is that usually fraud in any other arena would warrant a lawsuit etc. We know nothing will happen here until the next election. >
  
  If his districts were so inclined, they could recall him. >
  
  If his party had ethics, they'd refuse to seat him.
