Biden: “Put all of it on the table”

♫Oh, Mexico | It sounds so simple, I just got to go CNN: Elizabeth Holmes made an “attempt to flee the country” by booking a one-way ticket to Mexico departing in January 2022, shortly after the Theranos founder was convicted of fraud, prosecutors alleged in a new court filing Friday. Holmes was convicted last January of defrauding investors while running the failed blood testing startup Theranos. In November, she was sentenced to more than 11 years in prison. She has appealed her conviction and does not start her prison sentence until this spring, a waiting period that prosecutors described as “generous” and due to her being pregnant. Prosecutors argue that Holmes should start her prison term sooner than the scheduled April 27, 2023 because she remains a flight risk. Especially since she “has the means to act on that incentive.” Holmes’ attorneys claim she bought the ticket in advance of the conviction she thought she’d avoid. She had a wedding to attend in Mexico.

They’re doing it again If you’ve been watching the recent febrile reporting about the Biden documents you can be forgiven if you felt like you’ve seen this movie before. You have. The Washington Post published a story yesterday about the Biden documents case that pretty much explained and exonerated the administration’s handling of the matter. It also said that it doesn’t matter because it looks bad and everyone’s talking about it so it’s very bad, possibly fatal, for Biden. Ironically, the only thing that might spare him is the plethora of legal issues plaguing Trump and the fact that his document scandal is arguably much worse. On the other hand, I’m already seeing “we know Trump is a corrupt scumbag, we expect more from Biden” so who knows? How does this sort of thing happen?
