It was earlier this week when the public learned that a small number of Obama-era documents with classified markings were found at the Penn Biden Center for Diplomacy and Global Engagement in November. By all appearances, then-Vice President Joe Biden inadvertently took some materials with him upon leaving office six years ago, and the documents have now been returned to the proper authorities.

The discovery of classified materials at President Biden’s home in Delaware doesn’t change the fact that the story doesn’t mirror Donald Trump’s scandal.

The White House counsel’s office added additional clarity this morning, explaining that “a small number” of Obama-era records with classified markings were found at Biden’s residence in Delaware. They were then immediately turned over to the Justice Department.

Below, Rachel Maddow explains that the Biden classified documents news is ‘whataboutism’ and doesn’t compare to the Trump classified documents scandal.
