The whole Biden email thing is 2Fast2Furious.
As far as scandals go, no, it's not very massive.
What makes it worse though is that the media are making up stories about it's validity and/or flat out ignoring it. Just like they did with Tara Reade's rape allegations.

Politicians lie. It's practically in the job description so I'm inclined to accept that. But it used to be the journalists job to keep that in check.
Add to that the censorship from big tech. These are things countries like China do. They used to be universally unacceptable.
