Biden resigns the 1987 presidential primary race, caught plagiarizing.

Over the past few years, numerous plagiarism scandals have rocked the world of higher education. Prominent public intellectuals and university scholars have been caught improperly citing passages or even straight-up wholesale copying from other scholars’ works in their academic writing. The most high-profile of these scandals involved Claudine Gay, the former president of Harvard University. She resigned her position under pressure due to her academic misconduct, which involved lifting quotes from other authors and not attributing other writers’ work.
Many of Claudine Gay’s supporters were quick to minimize her actions. For example, D. Stephen Voss, associate professor of political science at the University of Kentucky (and one of the people Gay plagiarized), dismissed her actions as “no big deal.” It’s a fairly common practice, and she only borrowed a few words, Voss argued. If Gay’s behavior is no big deal and (as the series of scandals shows) is indeed a fairly common occurrence in higher education, why waste so much digital ink discussing it?
The problem is that “borrowing” the words written by others and passing them off as your own is dishonest. It’s intellectual theft. Colleges and universities need to uphold and exemplify moral standards, including respect for the property of others. Plagiarism cannot be allowed any more than more tactile forms of stealing.

Biden should be hounded either his past plagiarism issues on a daily basis. Especially since they rehashing Trumps faults every day.
Amazing what academics think is important.
There are no rules, regulations or laws that apply to the Left. Silly concepts like the rule of law and justice are for ‘others.’
Without a conscience or a soul, anything is possible.
Biden resigns the 1987 presidential primary race, caught plagiarizing.
We’re past that level now with the persecution of Trump. Watch what happens the next few months leading up to the DNC in August. It will be blood running in the streets.
Today's Rats are shameless. Totally owned agents of satan.
You have the pro-Hamas Democrats who's against "Genocide Joe" and his support of Israel. Jewish Democrats remain influential in the Democratic Party and it's important to them that Joe Biden continues to support Israel
