James Woods Renames Elizabeth Warren After DNA Test, Shreds Her In Series Of Tweets

James Woods, famed Twitter troll and one of the few actors willing to openly state conservative sentiments, had a field day after Democratic presidential hopeful Elizabeth Warren released the much-maligned analysis of her DNA test, which was intended to show that she likely had one Native American (or Mexican or Colombian or Peruvian) ancestor — six to ten generations ago. Probably. Maybe. The results of that test earned “Fauxcahontas” Warren a new nickname from Woods as well as a series of blistering posts on Warren’s “racial fraud.”

First, a little background on the report that started it all:

On Monday, the left-leaning Boston Globe published a follow-up to their report last month intended to clear Warren of charges of using her alleged ancestry to advance her career with an embarrassing report on the findings of Stanford Prof. Carlos Bustamante, who concluded that while “the vast majority” of the senator’s ancestry is European, “the results strongly support the existence of an unadmixed Native American ancestor.” That possible ancestor, said Bustamante, was probably somewhere “in the range of 6-10 generations ago.”

In the Globe’s initial report, it calculated that Bustamante’s findings meant that Warren was likely, probably, possibly anywhere from 1/32nd to 1/512th Native American. But in two corrections issued afterward, the Globe explained that a math error had overestimated her possible Native blood: Warren’s actually somewhere between 1/64th and 1/1,024th Native American. But that’s not the only necessary correction: The DNA Bustamante used to supposedly trace her ancestry actually included Mexican, Colombian, and Peruvian blood.

In response, Woods coined a new nickname for Warren:

He then spent a good part of the rest of the day picking apart the study, unloading on Warren’s past deceptions and retweeting criticism of the senator, including from Cherokee Nation:
