Your quote: I would really hate to spoil some of you guys' sweet dreams in anticipation of Trump's impeachment on grounds of high treason but do you realize that if Mueller has a tiny shred of evidence of Trump being in cahoots with the Russians he must alert the proper authorities immediately upon learning such fact? Not wait for a good moment to release it but do it right away since potential treason in the highest executive office presents immense danger to the country and delaying the announcement. "Guys' " is plural, so your initial quote is still somewhat amiss unless you find more people who said this. You are a spin master.

I'm really not interested in stuff like that. I'm more interested in affordable health care, fair taxation, clean air and water, voting rights for all who qualify etc.
I could have sworn I said that earlier though.
See if you can find that quote.
Meanwhile, why do you like to use really big letters in your posts?

Those DNA tests are mostly guesswork. There have been tests to see if they are accurate but if you sent your DNA to 12 different companies you'd get 12 different results. The proof was when identical twins got completely different results. As someone who studied biology for 10 years, i can guarantee you that much of what is presented as fact in science is really just an educated guess in many cases.

I don't care about trump's DNA or Warren's or anybody else for that matter, but as far as the accuracy of these tests, I'm not an expert at all, but many members of my family have done DNA tests with various companies and we all came out with very similar mixes of German, Irish and North African/Middle Eastern. That doesn't sound like 'guess work' to me.

Possibly there are some non-reputable companies out there, any business eventually draws con artists, but the companies we worked with were quite good.
Law enforcement leans heavily on DNA tests these days, I seriously don't their work is 'guess work' either.

I'd like to see a link to this story about the identical twins, I'd like to see what companies they were using so I can tell others to avoid those companies.

^ Do you have a link to the story about the identical twins. I'd like to see what companies they were using so I can warn people which companies to avoid.

^ I heard an in depth story on KPFA (local listener supported radio station) this morning. Unfortunately i was driving and didn't get to copy any info. I would love to know myself.

^ Are you a trump supporter?
You seem like you are.

She is not important to me, too trendy with the media and too much attention from the more shallow 'liberal' news outlets. I do appreciate her naive enthusiasm though, we need more participation from young people.

What do you think of trump?

I have an easy answer for you, but first tell me what you think of trump.
