"Feds: Republican treasurer embezzled over $500k"

500k?

This is clearly politics. $500k is peanuts. An accounting error. Especially over 4 years.

The bar for a scandal is much higher than this. Heck, for these amounts, we would have to credit Dan Rostenkowsky as a scandal...

Oh, wait...

That was then. This is now. The bar for scandal is much higher. Else you are just playing politics.
