In fairness, not every U.S. District Court requires specific admission to the bar of that court - for many, it’s enough to be admitted to the bar of that state - but agreed, that’s the kind of thing a lawyer should find out _before_ appearing.

Never mind getting the date wrong. What sickens me is the implication that the guy is being deprived of his freedom only because Biden is president. Dude, you (allegedly) assaulted police officers. You’d be in jail in any civilized society, under any sane leadership, and politics has fuck-all to do with it.

Just to be pedantic, I’ll note that there are a number of infectious diseases other than syphilis and RMSF that cause ‘spots’ on the palms, e.g. [Hand-Foot-and-Mouth Disease](https://www.amjmed.com/cms/asset/51306f8e-d3d2-4963-99c4-6e8f7443bcd3/gr1.jpg), [endocarditis (heart valve infection)](https://www.merckmanuals.com/-/media/manual/professional/images/9/0/i/90-infective-endocarditis-janeway-lesions-slide-11-springer-high.jpg?mw=704&thn=0&sc_lang=en-ca), Review of skin rashes involving palms and soles PDF), . . .
