'Real Indian' running against Sen. Elizabeth Warren sues after city tells him to stop calling her 'Fake Indian'
[FOXNEWS] A self-described "real Indian" who is running against Mass. Democratic Sen. Elizabeth Fauxchahontas Warren
...Dem Senatrix-for-Life from Massachussetts, who traces her noble lineage all the way back to Big Chief Spouting Bull. It has been alleged that she speaks with forked tongue but she denies that...
is suing after city officials demanded he take down his signs calling her a "fake Indian."

The upstart independent Senate challenger, Shiva Ayyadurai, on Sunday filed a federal lawsuit alleging that the demand from the city of Cambridge violates his constitutional free speech rights, according to The Washington Times.

Since March 17, Ayyadurai's campaign bus has sported two identical signs picturing himself and a rendition of Warren wearing Indian attire. Emblazoned next to the images are the words: "Only a REAL INDIAN Can Defeat the Fake Indian."

The bus has reportedly been stationed in a parking lot in front of an office building owned by Ayyadurai, who faces exceptionally long odds, for more than a month -- just a mile from Warren's home.

Earlier this month, the campaign received a notice from Cambridge building inspector Branden Vigneault that the signs lacked the appropriate "approvals and permits," according to local reports and the Ayyadurai campaign.

Vigneault threatened fines of $300 per day plus additional legal penalties if the signs remain in place, according to Ayyadurai.

"We will not remove the slogan from our bus," Ayyadurai told The Washington Times. "We will defend the First Amendment, and we will fight this egregious attack on the First Amendment, at any cost."

Ayyadurai's campaign reportedly thinks the building code doesn't apply to the signs because they're on a bus, not a structure.

Warren has long been accused of saying she is of Native American heritage to help in securing jobs, including one as a Harvard law professor.

President Trump has repeatedly called Warren, a Wall Street critic and potential White House rival, "Pocahontas," a notable American Indian woman in colonial history, to highlight the controversy. Warren has said she ruled out challenging Trump in 2020.

When asked in March whether she’d agree to calls for genetic testing to resolve the heritage controversy, Warren launched into a family history, as purportedly told by her parents and grandparents, before saying, "It’s a part of who I am, and no one’s ever going to take that away."

Experts have cast doubt on Warren's claim.

"The problem with Warren’s story is that none of the evidence supports it," Cherokee genealogist Twila Barnes wrote after researching Warren's family.

But observers have also accused Ayyadurai of puffery and distortion, as well. The attacks mostly center on his longstanding claim to be the inventor of e-mail.

#1 Blue on Blue.

Warren has long been accused of saying she is of Native American heritage to help in securing jobs, including one as a Harvard law professor.

Warren, Sanders, Sanders wife, former President of a university earning 6 figure income while driving the university into financial ruin, are a part of "higher education" that leaches off of deep state. Student loans aren't meant so much for getting students through college (Obama even started a Student Loan Forgiveness Program to protect the pro/college/liberal/big bucks cash flow system that was getting a black eye) but for paying liberals in professor/college administrator positions big bucks. Forgive the loans, protect these left wing indoctrination people and centers, put on the tax payers via adding to the national debt.

This is a critical part of the liberal foundation, leftist indoctrination of America's young people. They are now making huge inroads into public high schools via the war against the second amendment.

Deep State socialists gives these people the high life, and "Fauxchahontas" and company are going to fight tooth and nail to protect deep state who scratch their backs with big paychecks via federal student loan programs.

#2 Cambridge building inspector Branden Vigneault has been employed there only 1 yr 3 mos, according to his Linked In profile. So he may have no actual idea what he's doing: ignorance or stupidity, you choose.

#5 1) I don't like Shiva - probably told you why earlier this year or sometime last year.

2) Here's Howie Carr confronting Shiva last year on a domestic violence complaint against 'The REAL INDIAN'.

#6 The late Indian author & former Fulbright scholar Eknath Easwaram once related an hilarious story of his visit to an Indian boarding school somewhere in the US Southwest. The native children were so excited to finally see "a real Indian"!
