I previously have posted about the excellent job Michael Patrick Leahy at Breitbart.com has done bringing to light details of a scathing critique of Elizabeth Warren's scholarship by a now-deceased Rutgers Law School professor: The vetting of Elizabeth Warren’s academic background begins. Were charges of “scientific misconduct” against...

Rick Santorum had a Google problem. And so does Elizabeth Warren, although of a different nature. Elizabeth Warren wants her message to be about evil factory owners who live off of others, and the middle class which is being"hammered" (her new favorite word). Whatever her messaging intends to...

Elizabeth Warren is standing by her claim of Cherokee heritage even though there is no evidence to back up that claim, and plenty of evidence that it is not true. On Morning Joe this morning she refused to back down even an inch.  She also mocked the...

I have alluded to issues certain writers have taken with Elizabeth Warren's academic writings.
