He knows something about Boehner more than the rest of us. It doesn't have to be Ebola, he does apply a lot of logic only the Ebola thing is out of left field, just because someone is crazy doesn't mean everything they say isn't credible.

Take the letter it is a reasonable that understands why they wouldn't want to go with him he just wanted go to safe place to have a discussion. Saying he hasn't lied or exaggerated right after admitting he could have poisoned him.

Hear me out, he tells you he heard the Devil's voice. All that means is he heard it. That is a truthful statement, psychosis and real life overlap but don't take it as anything else he says less credible because that is a credible statement.

The mentally ill often make perfect victims because no one will believe him because he is crazy, he describes what is likely a delusion but there is a thought process or appearance of events that leads to the delusion.

That ebola thing is the kicker, it seems the behavior of someone who knows he is crazy, knows everyone else knows who is crazy desperately wants to expose a sociopath but the Ebola thing loses the whole thing. I'd still hear him out because reality & psychosis overlap and happen at the same time. It is hard to explain if you haven't experienced it yourself. It certainly isn't something you want to admit to because everything else you may say will be doubted for simply being accurate in describing the psychosis reality. You can understand both at the same time.

The ebola thing is really off though. Just something about it, everything I can make sense of is ebola. I just see ebola, he wants to confront him over ebola, a note about ebola but the thing it lacks is an explanation why he feels he is responsible for bringing ebola and everything attributed comes from officers, agents, and a note and I can go down the conspiracy theory rabbit hole.

I'll just say it is odd.
