It appears that Harris has yet another scandal, according to independent journalist Christopher Rufo. Kamala is being accused of using sources from her and her co-author’s book on Crime without attribution. Is Plagiarist Kamala now her new nickname?
The book, titled “Smart on Crime” was released prior to her campaign for California Attorney General. Austrian “plagiarism hunter” Stefan Weber reviewed the material from the book and found numerous instances where the authors had lifted sections of their book from other people and made no attempt to attribute those pieces from the original authors or sources.
In another section of the book, Harris, without proper attribution, reproduced extensive sections from a John Jay College of Criminal Justice press release. She and her co-author passed off the language as their own, copying multiple paragraphs virtually verbatim. Here is the… pic.twitter.com/9FpsxQE8Sz

Finally, when attempting to write a description of a nonprofit group, Harris simply lifted promotional language from an Urban Institute report, and failed to cite her source: pic.twitter.com/WpcC0SkpT5

Will this presidential election be the most important in American history?
Plagiarist Kamala?
“Taken in total, there is certainly a breach of standards here. Harris and her co-author duplicated long passages nearly verbatim without proper citation and without quotation marks, which is the textbook definition of plagiarism. They not only lifted material from sources without proper attribution, but in at least one case, relied on a low-quality source, which potentially undermined the accuracy of their conclusion. Of course, Harris, like many other public figures, may have relied entirely on a ghostwriter to draft her book. But that is not exculpatory: Harris, at the end of the day, put her name on the cover. On that point, one might recall the title of her book: Smart on Crime.”
There is nothing smart about plagiarism, which is the equivalent of an academic crime. The publisher, as well as the sitting vice president, should retract the plagiarized passages and issue a correction. There should be a single standard—and Kamala Harris is falling short.” Christopher Rufo
Did she join Harvard’s plagiarism club? Mr. Rufo brought the receipts, clearly showing her ‘academic crime.’
