- Better let a scandal slide than risk a nuclear war.
Hey, now. Charges against Holmes landed yesterday. she settled immediately. Meanwhile we've got 5party sanctions against Russia for an attempted nerve gas assassination in London, physical violence threatened against the porn star the president is trying to silence and a WaPo report that the national security advisor is being forced out. Since yesterday. Rather than pointing at conspiracy, I'd point to buffer overflow. It's not like we're in a slow news cycle and the papers discussing Theranos are still in the goddamn newsstands.
Show me evidence that James Mattis at anytime acted without the best interest of the cooperation at heart or with corrupt motives. Mattis was caught up in the scam like a ton of other people, an unwitting dupe. Mattis wasn't on the board because his brilliant financial skills or his penetrating knowledge of biology, he was brought on board to lobby for government contracts. He tried to do his job as a board member but the product he was sold and which he was selling was an enormous scam, something he found out well after accepting a board position. Hilary should have flown down in her super suit and prevented casualties during a war right? Something bad happened while she was more directly accountable than Mattis ever was and she should burn at the stake. Partisan bullshit, if you buy it that's your problem.
