Spoilers for You Can See Everything below.
A lot is dissected in the nearly three-hour runtime of Nathan Fielder and Lance Oppenheim’s new documentary, You Can See Everything, much of it centered on the very Fielderian topics of truth and reality. The question of whether disgraced biotech founder Elizabeth Holmes is lying threads throughout the film, and extends to her X account, which is active even as Holmes is serving her 11.25-year prison sentence.
Some imprisoned people do post. When asked how he can comment on Instagram from behind bars, Tiger King‘s Joe Exotic explained, “it’s all corrupt girl.” But, as revealed in You Can See Everything, Holmes isn’t exactly the one with Twitter fingers.
Holmes’ X account becomes a point of contention for Fielder and actor Amanda Seyfried, who joins partway through the film to reenact moments that weren’t or couldn’t be filmed. In Sept. 2025, years into Holmes’ time in prison, Fielder and Seyfried scroll through the account to find inflammatory posts that don’t sound like her — or are lies. One example is someone who asked Holmes if she ever watched The Dropout, the series based on the Theranos story starring Seyfried. “Holmes” said, “Never will,” despite how she watched it on camera for the documentary.

As it turns out, the posts are created by her partner, Billy Evans. In You Can See Everything, Evans said he takes it upon himself to post on Holmes’ account.
Social media is only one way Evans speaks for Holmes. As shown in the film, he also created an AI version of her to speak to business partners, their children, and the world on social media. (He apparently doesn’t care about deepfake explicit imagery that might be created of her.) He has power of attorney for her. He explicitly stated that he feels comfortable speaking for Holmes, and often didn’t consult her when making business decisions (their next startup is about — what else? — blood testing).
Since the documentary has been released, viewers have figured out what’s going on. The above post and many others have renewed interest, with people replying with memes, call-outs specifically to Billy (“Any update on this Billy”), and calling Holmes/Evans a liar.
The account has posted many times in the last year, and it’s unknown whether the words were Holmes’ or Evans’. Examples include a eulogy to Lindsey Graham calling him a patriot, cryptic warnings that “No one can stop what’s coming,” and about Charlie Kirk in the wake of his death. (Evans said in the documentary that he was a fan of Kirk.)
There are also several posts that appear to be screenshots of emails Holmes sent, which are directly her words.
Weeks before the film’s wide release on Oct. 16, the pair posted to Holmes’ X account stating a new rule: “Starting now, all posts in my own words will be marked -EAH…Posts without that signature are from the team managing this account.” The post includes a selfie of Holmes and Evans. Some posts since then, Sept. 27, do have that signature, and others don’t.
As of this writing, the latest post on Holmes’ X account is, “I really don’t think you are ready for this doc.” It doesn’t contain Holmes’ signature.
