National Rifle Association (NRA) spokeswoman Dana Loesch ripped into Sen. Elizabeth Warren Elizabeth WarrenDimon: Wealth tax 'almost impossible to do' CNN's Don Lemon: 'Blow up the entire system' remark taken out of context Democrats shoot down talk of expanding Supreme Court MORE (D-Mass.) on Monday for releasing DNA results that indicate Warren's family has Native American ancestry.

"Mine does too. Most Americans have such," Loesch tweeted. "The difference is that you identified yourself as a protected class for personal gain and spurned meetings with American Indians like Twila Barnes and others."

"You know very well you were criticized by many for this dubious representation," Loesch added.

Loesch was replying to a tweet earlier in the day from Warren in which she said a geneticist had confirmed her Native American ancestry.

"My family (including Fox News-watchers) sat together and talked about what they think of @realDonaldTrump's attacks on our heritage," Warren tweeted. "And yes, a famous geneticist analyzed my DNA and concluded that it contains Native American ancestry."

Loesch spoke later in the day on her radio show, "The Dana Show," and referenced a study cited by The New York Times in 2014 that found European-Americans had genomes that on average were 0.18 percent Native American.
