<i>&gt; Dr. Bill Frist, the former Senate majority leader from Tennessee who joined Theranos as a director last year, supports Ms. Holmes and asserts that “the data I have seen speaks.” But he also points out that the Theranos story has taken on the cast of a vicious political campaign and there’s nothing more appealing than watching a front-runner fall from grace.</i><p>This is ridiculous. A lifetime politician accuses other clinical scientists and medical practitioners questioning Theranos&#x27; basic technology and its secrecy as political campaign? That&#x27;s not how Science and Medicine work. Even that &quot;a front-runner&quot; statement is questionable. Theranos can not even releases its revenue number to be compared to LabCorp or Quest Dx.<p><i>&gt; In the early 1990s, Mr. Holmes moved the family to Texas where he worked for energy companies, including Tenneco and Enron. (Mr. Holmes has since returned to public service and now works at the United States Agency for International Development.)</i><p>NOW that gets very interesting! Mr. Holmes [1] was found to be listed as officers in at least four Enron subsidiaries[2,3]. Guess that would be great lessons for some future entrepreneur. Conveniently such Enron experiences are not listed on USAID website [4].<p>[1] <a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;individual-contributors.insidegov.com&#x2F;d&#x2F;c&#x2F;Christian-Holmes" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;individual-contributors.insidegov.com&#x2F;d&#x2F;c&#x2F;Christian-H...</a><p>[2] <a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.corporationwiki.com&#x2F;Texas&#x2F;Houston&#x2F;christian-r-holmes&#x2F;34634412.aspx" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.corporationwiki.com&#x2F;Texas&#x2F;Houston&#x2F;christian-r-hol...</a><p>[3] <a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.ruf.rice.edu&#x2F;~eesi&#x2F;scs&#x2F;Holmes.htm" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.ruf.rice.edu&#x2F;~eesi&#x2F;scs&#x2F;Holmes.htm</a><p>[4] <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.usaid.gov&#x2F;who-we-are&#x2F;organization&#x2F;christian-holmes" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.usaid.gov&#x2F;who-we-are&#x2F;organization&#x2F;christian-holm...</a>
