Vance is accusing Harris of plagiarizing her 2009 book Smart on Crime.
“Hi, I’m JD Vance. I wrote my own book, unlike Kamala Harris, who copied hers from Wikipedia,” Vance posted on X, linking a Medium article titled, “Kamala Harris’s Plagiarism Problem.”
Vance then mocked “corporate media ‘fact checkers.'”
“Cue the corporate media ‘fact checkers’: ‘Vance’s tweet is missing important context,” he said. “‘Kamala Harris only copied some of her book from Wikipedia.'”
Vance previously posted on X, “Lmao Kamala didn’t even write her own book,” in a response to a thread from Christopher F. Rufo comparing sections of text from Harris’s book to other sources.
