Bernie Sanders declares that lies that help Democrats are good

As part of the civil war in the Democrat party between Democrats who are somewhat sane and those who are totally insane Bernie Sanders attacked a left wing article that pointed out the truth about Elizabeth Warren's Native American heritage; namely she doesn't have one.

Bernie wrote:

"My friend and colleague Elizabeth Warren was unfairly targeted by a November 2017 article on ThinkProgress that echoed Donald Trump’s bad faith claims that she was being a hypocrite about her ancestry. That attack that was linked on the Drudge Report and immediately immersed her into a rather unhelpful debate. Again in October 2018, you published an article stating that she was hurting Native American people."

But the reality is that we now all know that Warren is less Native American than a huge swath of Americans. 

We know for a fact that she lied about her ethnicity to gain jobs; including a cushy gig at Harvard where she was paid more than $300 thousand a year to teach one class.  Those jobs should have gone to real minorities not the white privileged Warren.

For Bernie to object to that is a clear and unequivocal statement that he thinks that lies that help Democrats are good.
