Vice President Kamala Harris has been busted for plagiarizing a congressional testimony from a Republican district attorney in 2007. This is the second plagiarism scandal that the Democrat nominee has faced in recent weeks.
According to a report from the Washington Free Beacon, Harris’ testimony was stolen from Illinois District Attorney Paul Logli.
The report explains:
In a written statement to the House Judiciary Committee, she described how debt-addled prosecutors often decamp to the private sector a few years into the job, lured by the prospect of higher pay that could be used to pay off law school debt. That dynamic had left many district attorneys’ offices short-staffed, she said, forcing them to put rookie attorneys on complex cases.
“There are numerous criminal cases that are particularly difficult because of the dynamics involved,” Harris wrote. “To name just a few—child abuse, elder neglect, domestic violence, identity theft and public corruption. The stakes are simply too high to allow any attorney other than experienced prosecutors to handle these matters.”
By repaying the loans of prosecutors and public defenders, Harris argued, the bill, which had been introduced with bipartisan support, would provide an incentive for lawyers to enter public service, or at least diminish the incentive to leave it.
The statement was simple and pragmatic. But Harris wasn’t the first person to make it.
Logli gave his version of the testimony to the Senate Judiciary Committee two months before Harris did. The statements even contained the same typos and spelling errors.
In total, the Beacon report found seven examples of Harris passing off other people’s work as her own.
In 2012, Harris also copied a part of the Wikipedia entry on human trafficking and passed it off as her own. The revelation led to vice presidential candidate J.D. Vance taking a pointed snipe at her on X.
“Hi, I’m JD Vance. I wrote my own book, unlike Kamala Harris, who copied hers from Wikipedia,” Vance posted in response to the news.

Additionally, Harris plagiarized part of her 2009 book, Smart on Crime.
The Harris campaign did not respond to the Free Beacon’s request for comment. The Gateway Pundit has also reached out for comment and will update this article if one is provided.

Well, she did say she wouldn’t do anything different than Biden....
Biden is the original “Plagiarizer in Chief”
Paul Logli is a known name in Rockford, Illinois. His family had the leading local grocery chain “Logli” (pronounced “Lohg’-lee”), before they sold out to Schnuck’s.
Abortion trumps plagiarism charges.
Let’s hope Trump trumps Harris. She could win. See above.
I think Americans are now discovering how Kamala Harris
managed to get through college and law school.
One only has to listen to speak to realize that something is amiss.
The Atlantic dropped their BS story about Trump paying for the funeral of a KIA veteran and wanting “generals like Hitler had” to bury this story.
Following faithfully in the footsteps of her mentor, biden, who never had an original thought either.

I would hope so, but right now I have a very bad feeling that the voting habits of Americans over the past couple of decades, and in more recent years, has created something that won’t let an outsider attempt to right the ship.
I support the man and have already voted for Donald Trump for the third time, but I’m going to repeat what I said to a few others after the 2016 election: the Donald Trump Presidency should never have happened in the first place. It blows my mind that things were allowed to get so bad that it’s what prompted Trump to throw his hat in the ring in the first place. I’m also quite thoroughly disgusted with the incumbency rate within both parties. Maybe I’m just a crank because I haven’t had my coffee this morning, but at this point I’m just tired, and I’m only about halfway through my life, and dealing with this crap.
Too lazy to even cheat well.
