Kamala Harris, the Plagiarist

 


So if you open a Wikipedia page, remember Kamala stole from it!




Then again, given her own quotes, maybe the plagiarism makes sense:


Instapundit: If you're gonna plagiarize steal from the bestKamala the PlagiaristKamala's a plagiarist too (just like Biden), and Kamala's publisher recognizes disaster

Claudine Gay Resigns As Harvard President

 



Legal Insurrection: Gay out this afternoon. and Plagiarism



Breitbart: Fresh Plagiarism

Claudine Gay was supposedly getting support by Obama, but that lobbying still not enough to save Gay's job. The plagiarism charges hurt her, along with big donors not giving to Harvard, so she is resigning.

Biden Harris: Plagiarists and Hypocrites

 

AoSHQ: Harris making shit up

Given Biden's plagiarist and lying past, Harris is a perfect running mate for him. Ace did not break this story about Harris, but he sums it up well. We heard for years from the left and NeverTrumpers (there is not much difference) how Trump was a liar. Often with Trump, the so called "lies" are his opponents and the media mischaracterizing and taking his statements out of context. 

Biden has been brazenly lying in a public capacity for decades. In the past Biden was called out on it, but not now. The media is in cahoots with the Democrats. Harris has also done this repeatedly and gets even less scrutiny.

Did AppleTV steal the arrangement from Postmodern Jukebox's arrangement of 'Creep'?


While Rozzi does a good version of the song--it is arranged almost exactly as Scott Bradley and Haley Reinhart's Postmostern Jukebox's version. Hey--nothing wrong with getting inspiration from other people's work. They are both using Radiohead's song, but not at least attributing the arraignment is wrong of AppleTV.

Newsweek:  Did AppleTV rip off Postmodern Jukebox?  BTW--Rozzi was unaware of the issue and did not pick or arrange the song:
The official Postmodern Jukebox Twitter agreed. "PMJ fans - please do not go after
@thisisrozzi on this one, this is between us and the producers of @TheMorningShow. Rozzi did a beautiful job, and it wasn't her decision to sing this." 
In a statement to Newsweek, Bradlee pointed to the limitations of current copyright law. 
"I think this is important because copyright law hasn't caught up with technology. I can't copyright an arrangement of an existing song—no matter how unique or specific that arrangement is. At the same time, most people agree that there is something ethically gross about a major TV studio copying someone else's hard work and then selling it for profit, without any credit given to the person that did all the work. I saw a screenshot of the credits and they credited two other dudes with the arrangement instead—even though our version from years ago had 69 million views online. That's pretty lame," Bradlee said.

Melania Trump at the Republican Convention Update: Trump Staffer Meredith McIver Admits Fault



American Power Blog: Melania Trump accused of plagiarizing Michelle Obama's 2008 speech

Update: CNN: Manafort denies any plagiarism. There are lines that are word for word, which seems more than mere coincidence, but as plagiarism goes it is not that big a deal.



RedState: Plagiarized? We all know these speeches are written for the wives (as well as the candidates) so the blame probably goes to a speech writer and failure to double check it.  It's a bit embarrassing but if true, but staff should be fact checking (they have programs to do this now).




Jonah Goldberg: Mistake by the Lake 

Of course there were things in Melania's speech not in Michelle's:

James Carville suggests President Obama should take a change of course...


Crack smoking  Toronto Mayor Rob Ford
approval rating 48%

Following Obamacare roll out President Obama's
approval rating 39% (hit the pipe Mr. President)

















Democratic strategist James Carville said Monday in light of President Barack Obama’s declining poll numbers, maybe he should take a page from an infamous Canadian mayor. “I think the best thing he can do is take a toke on the mayor of Toronto’s crack pipe, because his numbers are about 48,” Carville joked on MSNBC’s “Morning Joe,” referring to Rob Ford, who has admitted smoking crack.*
* James Carville, Democrat plagiarist.  That was actually a Jay Leno joke that Carville stole.

American Power: President Obama's 2nd Term: FUBAR!

Update:
Meanwhile Scarborough is calling the Tea Party "political amateurs"  Hey, it takes political skill to translate a dead female intern found in your House of Rep. office into a high paying gig on MSNBC (and they pay him way more than his girl Mika).\
Bidding on Rob Ford bobblehead (but think of all the crack you could buy instead).
