Kamala Harris has been rocked by a plagiarism scandal as potentially damning allegations surfaced about testimony she delivered when she was a U.S. senator.
Harris is accused of lifting text 'verbatim' from a former colleague for use in written congressional testimony she gave in 2007, in an analysis by the Washington Free Beacon.
The latest allegations about Harris come hot on the heels of another scandal - over whether she actually worked at McDonald's in college, as she has claimed.

Both come after she was previously accused of copying 'word-for-word' several blocks of text in her book 'Smart on Crime,' published in 2009.
The latest plagiarism allegations arise from testimony Harris gave as a senator in support of the John R. Justice Prosecutors and Defenders Incentive Act of 2007.
It was a bill that would help pay student loans for state and federal prosecutors to keep talented lawyers in the profession.
Harris' interest in the proposal was personal, as she spent her early years as a career prosecutor before she ran for political office.
But her written statement in support of the bill, sent to the House Judiciary Committee, was not about her own experience.
Instead, it reflected nearly verbatim text sent by District Attorney Paul Logli of Winnebago County, Illinois, a Republican, in support of the bill.
Of the 1,500 words in the testimony, 80 percent were exactly the same as Logli's submission, according to the Free Beacon analysis.
It is unclear whether both political figures were using the same source text to write their testimony.
The similarity could have resulted from sloppy staff work.

Does anyone actually believe KH sat for the bar exam herself. I bet her law professor, sister, slipped in with a fake ID. And took the exam for her.
That is not an easy scam to pull off. It’s not a possibility I’m willing to consider as remotely possible. I know plenty of idiot lawyers here in CA
The average American voter probably doesn’t know what it means to plagiarize. They allowed the installation of Biden, even though he was well known as a plagiarizer. Heck, back when Americans were just a touch smarter, Biden had to pull out of a presidential race because of his past plagiarizing.
Harris’s ENTIRE life is a damn lie..notice one thing where is her marxist daddy, he never says a word, she only mentions her mother, how about her father, NOTHING, not one word..her whole life is a lie, from her claiming she said “Fweedom” when she stole that from MLK Jr, on down the line..if we had an HONEST media, HEHE I made myself laugh there, her campaign would be done on this alone
“But can I still get abortions if I vote blue? Please?”
“But can I still get abortions if I vote blue? Please?”
Anytime, anywhere, and likely they’ll be free, and come with awards.
You mean second time she took it as she failed the exam the first time.
She wasn’t a senator in 2007.
“I know plenty of idiot lawyers here in CA”
I had a college buddy that went to law school (UoF) in 1977 after getting an engineering degree. He laughed at how easy it was and the lack of competition.
Everything about her is a fraud. She is a less well polished POS like Obama. Everything about their lives are frauds and fakes.
No one cares about KH’s honesty. They care about her tactics to get where she is.
Trump or the Tramp? Black guy wearin’ that shirt
I’m not sure what that school reference is, but I’m here to tell you that the CA bar exam was no joke
“but I’m here to tell you that the CA bar exam was no joke”
Not implying bar exams are a joke. A real pain. But not something a prepared graduate would not be able to pass.
Yes everyone I know that has taken the bar Exam studied hard and long and is basically smart. Kamala is a lazy idiot.
Is anyone following Candace Owens’ investigation into Kamala Harris’ lineage?
Sloppy staff work. Right.
It never really hurt Biden; it won’t affect die-hard Harris voters, either. But shouldn’t it turn away so-called “evangelicals for Harris”? I mean, they can’t vote for Trump because of his supposed low character. I guess her sleep up the ladder, abortion stance, and now, plagiarism, don’t count as moral failures.
