Does Fake Kamala Plagiarize Also?

 More interesting news about Kamala Harris is coming out. According to reporter Christopher Rufo, a German plagiarism hunter named Stefan Weber discovered that Kamala Harris’s first book Smart on Crime: A Career Prosecutor’s Plan to Make Us Safer (2009). Weber claims that the book is full of plagiarized material and even has a made-up citation.

To add to the interest in this discovery, Joe Biden’s 1987 attempt to run for President of the United States ended when he was discovered to be guilty of plagiarism. Now, his vice president and wannabe successor is guilty of the same vice. Andrea Widburg wrote about the alleged plagiarism in her article published by American Thinker

Stefan Weber has dedicated himself to hunting down politicians who plagiarize. In 2021, the New York Times wrote that, in Austria and Germany, Weber “is the undisputed terror of academics, politicians, celebrities ad a panoply of other potential culprits.” A man who was himself the victim of plagiarism, Weber, who has “a near-photographic memory,” has morphed into a business with full-time employees. He’s the real deal, and German-speaking politicians rightly fear him.


Now, perhaps, American politicians will start to fear him, too. That’s because Weber has gone after Kamala’s early foray into authorship….


Weber took his gimlet eye to the book and discovered that Kamala plagiarized at least a dozen passages, as well as making up a non-existent source for one passage. Christopher Rufo’s team confirmed that Weber’s findings are accurate.

Widburg’s article includes a picture of the cover to Kamala Harris’s book as well as a thread from X where “Rufo lists all the stolen passages, aided by a color-coding system that makes it impossible to miss that these were not coincidental verbal parallels.” Widburg also included three things “that are worth noting.”

First, this is more evidence, if needed, that Kamala is a fake and an intellectual lightweight….


Second, we’ve learned that, for decades, there has been a veritable plague of black academics and writers engaging in plagiarism….


Third, Joe Biden’s 1986 presidential campaign imploded when, after he’d already admitted to and groveled about plagiarizing a law review article while in law school, it emerged that he was at it again during the campaign. This time, he’d copied almost verbatim a speech by Neil Kinnock, a British politician.


It would make a lovely narrative package if Kamala’s campaign were to crash and sink on the same rocks.
