Elizabeth Warren is right about one thing: President Donald Trump should stop calling her Pocahontas.
The correct name is Fauxcahontas. That's the nickname Boston Herald columnist and radio talk show host Howie Carr hung on her during the 2012 campaign. That's "Faux" as in "false." The point is that she's a faker.
Editor's Note: Below is a transcript of U.S. Senator Elizabeth Warren's speech to the National Congress of American Indians in Washington D.C. on Wednesday, February 14, 2018.
Thank you so much. Thank you for the warm welcome. And I want to start by thanking Chairwoman Andrews-Maltais for the very kind and generous introduction. It has been an honor to work with, to learn from, and to represent the tribes of my home state of Massachusetts, the Aquinnah and the Mashpee Wamponoags. [Applause] So it's a great delight to be here. Thank you.
