On April 24, 2007, Kamala Harris testified before Congress in support of the John R. Justice Prosecutors and Defenders Incentive Act of 2007. The bill, which was introduced that year but never passed the upper chamber, would have created a student loan repayment program for state and local prosecutors, and Harris, then the district attorney of San Francisco, argued it would draw top legal talent to offices like hers.
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.
Virtually her entire testimony about the bill was taken from that of another district attorney, Paul Logli of Winnebago County, Illinois, who had testified in support of the legislation two months earlier before the Senate Judiciary Committee. Both statements cite the same surveys, use the same language, and make the same points in the same order, with a paragraph added here or there. They even contain the same typos, such as missing punctuation or mistaken plurals. One error—a "who" that should have been a "whom"—was corrected in Harris’s transposition.
She really is Ho Biden.
n excerpt from her newest children’s book:
” The grandmother lived out in the wood, half a league from the village, and just as Little Red Riding Hood entered the wood, a wolf met her. Little Red Riding Hood did not know what a wicked creature he was, and was not at all afraid of him.
“Good-day, Little Red Riding Hood,” said he.
“Thank you kindly, wolf.”
“Whither away so early, Little Red Riding Hood?”
“To my grandmother’s.”
“What have you got in your apron?”
“Cake and wine. Yesterday was baking-day, so poor sick grandmother is to have something good, to make her stronger.”
“Where does your grandmother live, Little Red Riding Hood?”
“A good quarter of a league farther on in the wood. Her house stands under the three large oak-trees, the nut-trees are just below. You surely must know it,” replied Little Red Riding Hood.”
Plus she went to Law School on a program meant for low income disadvantaged students when her parents were upper middle class (College profs). She lied on the application. She’s been a phony for a long time. She flunked the bar exam the first time while 80% passed.
She’s a loser. Time for Melania to start planning what she will wear Inauguration Day.
Low-IQ kamala is incapable of doing anything original! And she’s backed by the war lobby!
Vote Trump/Vance!
She lied on her law school applications to take the seat of an otherwise disadvantaged applicant. She was living in the most expensive suburb in Montreal, traveling the world, with the incomes of 2 professors, and claimed she was a person of color and therefore, disadvantaged. RedState.com put out the post yesterday.
She’s only accomplished in one thing. And she was Willie successful in it.
What a fraud she is. Such a disgrace.
Megyn Kelly Details Bombshell New Reporting About Serious Evidence of Kamala Harris' Past Plagiarism
BFD. She and a Republican colleague are lobbying for the same legislation, he in the Senate, and she in Congress. So they corroborated lazily and used substantially the same words in corroborated companion articles. I’d love to have yet another accusation to level at Kamala, but this ain’t it.
Biden lost an election when he ripped off a famous Kinnock speech, but one could argue that Kamala was just supporting Logli in this case.
...but one could argue that Kamala was just supporting Logli in this case.
Yeh. Not that that raises her in my esteem one jot. You can say the same about the MSM anchors’ constant parroting each others’ key phrases, too. Not “plagiarism,” any more than the sheep in Animal Farm were plagiarizing each other by repeating the same mindless phrases over and over. “Four legs goood. Two legs baaadd.”
They think nobody notices they copied see the Bat Signal.
If this were the only time she plagiarized or copied directly from someone else’s work with no attribution, I could agree with you.
Is this the only time she did that ?
But as California attorney general, she didn’t just copy boilerplate language without attribution. In one of the lengthier passages reviewed by Free Beacon, she lifted a fictionalized story about a victim of sex trafficking—and presented it as a real case.
Thanks for the ping.
