There is no evidence that Joe Biden did anything illegal. IIRC, you routinely dismiss any criticism of Trump or his minions (e.g., Manafort) unless they were charged and convicted of crimes that correlate precisely with the criticism (reminder - Al Capone was convicted of tax evasion, not of being a mob boss).

Meanwhile, eleven (and counting) Trump associates have been charged with crimes and zero Biden associates have been. Any day now, quite a few more (including Trump himself) are likely to be indicted in Georgia per court statements by Fani Willis with more charges possible in NY and DC. You need to come to terms with the fact that your Dear Leader is a career criminal.

Meanwhile, here's another worthwhile take on the Durham fiasco. Perhaps you should read it to help dislodge some of the wingnut nonsense you seem to have absorbed.

House Republicans are right that politicization of the Justice Department has been a jaw-dropping abuse of power. They’ve got the wrong culprit, however. As a blockbuster New York Times article made clear, then-Attorney General William P. Barr and special counsel John H. Durham engaged in unethical, abusive manipulation of the Justice Department in pursing the baseless conspiracy theory that the intelligence community had conducted a witch hunt of then-President Donald Trump in connection with Russian manipulation of the 2016 election.
