Chelsea Clinton Slapped With Lawsuit For Copyright Infringement Over Children’s Book

Nevertheless, she infringed.

At least, that’s the accusation being made by a writer who is suing former First Daughter Chelsea Clinton for $150,000.

Christopher Kimberley filed a federal lawsuit in New York claiming Clinton and publisher Penguin Random House stole his book idea when they produced the children’s book ‘She Persisted.’

Clinton derived the idea for her book from the temper tantrum thrown on the Senate floor by Democrat Elizabeth Warren, which produced this quote from Mitch McConnell …

She was warned. She was given an explanation. Nevertheless, she persisted.

Liberals turned the last three words into a feminist rallying cry, and Clinton took the cue for her book.

Problem is, according to Kimberley, that the series of quotes used in the book are similar to a book he wrote in 2013.

Via the Daily Mail:

An author is suing Chelsea Clinton for ‘ripping off’ his idea to write her feminist children’s book ‘She Persisted’.

Christopher Janes Kimberley, 56, filed a federal lawsuit in New York against Chelsea Clinton, 37, and Penguin Random House accusing the former first daughter of copyright infringement.

Court documents obtained by DailyMail.com reveal Kimberley is seeking up to $150,000 in damages and any profits from the New York Times best seller.

Kimberley said he wrote an all-ages, three-volume illustrated children’s book ‘A Heart is the Part That Makes Boys And Girls Smart’ in 2013.

Kimberely claims that his book featured three quotes that were also featured in the book ‘She Persisted.’

“I did months of painstaking research on my book,” the writer told the New York Post. “Her version looks like a ninth-grade homework assignment.”

“I am in disbelief,” he said.

Um … they’re quotes. You’ll likely find them in numerous other books and/or collections.

Nevertheless, he insisted that the president of Penguin Young Readers US, Jennifer Loja, must have received the submission in 2013, read it, and then gave the idea to Clinton.

  1. The Ugly Chelsea Clinton ventriloquist doll would make a lot more money making horror movies with herself as the protagonist than by infringing on the copyright of children’s movies. That horror movie with Chelsea as the scary demon possesed doll could be called: “The Turd That Won’t Flush Has Persisted”.

  2. Chelsea has too much of her mother in her to ever quietly go away. But that’s what she should do. She should just take that Foundation Blood Money and move to the hills. It’s not going to happen. The whole family has never worked a day in their lives. Isn’t that amazing ? Favors for money, Murder, Criminal Corruption of all kinds, the family tradition.

  3. Plagiarism is well known in the literary world and would believe the publisher was well aware of C.Clintons lack of knowledge for writing such a book should have needed references to – ! The real author has the right to sue but imho because of who she is – it will die a natural death.

  5. Imagine the stark terror and fright at seeing this, without makeup, staring at you when you awaken in the morning. Sorta like seeing a gigantic German shepherd preparing to tear your face off.

  6. The Clintons are above he law. I would hope she gets sued and pays up she’s has no credibility
    accomplished nothing in life received lucrative pay for do nothing work and claims to have written a book, what moron would believe that that dingbat can do anything?
