Fact check: Biden repeats his claim that he ‘got arrested’ defending civil rights. There’s still no evidence for it
cnn.com/2024/04/26/politics/fact-check-joe-biden-claim-arrested-defending-civil-rights/
Quick Glance: Fact Check: Biden Repeats Claim of Arrest for Defending Civil Rights. Still No Evidence
- President Joe Biden reiterated his story of allegedly trying to defend the civil rights of Black Americans on 'The Howard Stern Show.' However, there is no evidence to support his claim of ever being arrested at a civil rights protest, as noted by 'The Washington Post' and 'PolitiFact.'
- Biden has told the story of his supposed presence at a specific protest in Delaware at least twice without mentioning an arrest. He stated that the police simply took him home on that day.
- It is impossible to prove definitively whether Biden was present at this or a similar protest over 60 years ago. He has also made other false claims about his personal life in the past.
- Biden falsely claimed to have 'driven an 18-wheeler' and that he never earned $400,000 in a year. During his 2020 presidential campaign, he claimed to have been 'arrested' as a US senator while trying to visit South African anti-apartheid icon Nelson Mandela in prison, which turned out to be untrue.

Quick Glance: Ohtani leads Dodgers to dominant win over sliding Blue Jays
- Ohtani shakes off some of the loudest boos at Rogers Centre to homer in the first inning and later walk and score during a six-run third for the Los Angeles Dodgers' fifth straight win.
- The Dodgers banged out 19 hits, including additional homers by Max Muncy and Will Smith, while knocking out Chris Bassitt in 2.2 innings, forcing manager John Schneider to run through five relievers before asking Isiah Kiner-Falefa to pitch the ninth.
- The Blue Jays pursued the two-way superstar Ohtani intensely, but he ultimately chose the Dodgers, prompting the Blue Jays to shift their approach and focus on internal options like Addison Barger.
- The Dodgers are in a league of their own in many ways, while the Blue Jays continue to work on their offense to get out of their current slump.

Quick Glance: Ippei Mizuhara Remains Free Despite Bank Fraud Charges on $25,000 Bond
- Former interpreter for baseball star Shohei Ohtani from the Los Angeles Dodgers surrendered to authorities and later appeared before the U.S. District Court.
- Ippei Mizuhara turned himself in on Friday and was subsequently released on an unsecured $25,000 bond, commonly referred to as a signature bond. This arrangement allowed Mizuhara to secure his release without needing to provide any cash or collateral.
- United States Magistrate Judge Maria A. Audero also stipulated that Mizuhara must undergo treatment for his gambling addiction related to the sports betting scandal. Prosecutors alleged that he exploited his personal and professional connection with Ohtani to steal over $16 million from the player's bank account by occasionally posing as Ohtani to bankers to cover his gambling expenses.
- On Friday, Mizuhara only responded to the judge's inquiries by answering 'yes' when Audero asked him if he comprehended various aspects of the case and his bond conditions.
