The tweet gets a fact-check message. I appeal this somehow, and then the FTC has to conduct a probe into whether the fact-check warning stands or not? 08:43 <@Dolemite> In theory 08:44 <@Dolemite> So it has the potential to just be another troll dominated process 08:44 <@jb7od> I imagine a stapler being thrown in a cubicle at the ftc.. lool 08:46 <@Corydon76> Also, the speed at which the FTC and FCC move is glacially slow, so by the time they're ready to make a preliminary statement, Trump may be gone, and a new administration can revoke the executive order. 08:46 <@jb7od> I question the value of the entire thing- so, six months later you get the fact-check warning lifted (or not). It will have bled so far off the screen nobody will ever care. 08:47 <@Corydon76> Trump might as well threaten to hit them with his tiny hands. 09:56 -!- jb7odroid [~u0_a382@c-98-211-10-207.hsd1.tn.comcast.net] has joined #se2600 09:56 -!- jb7odroid [~u0_a382@c-98-211-10-207.hsd1.tn.comcast.net] has left #se2600 [] 10:46 <@Mirage> https://nypost.com/2020/05/28/armed-rednecks-stave-off-looters-amid-george-floyd-protests/ 10:46 < PigBot> 'Armed rednecks' stave off looters amid George Floyd protests (at nypost.com) http://tinyurl.com/ydfqy2kj 13:54 <@Evilpig> struggling here today trying not to start any major projects and make sure I don't create any issues that someone will have to deal with over the next month while i'm out 13:56 <@Evilpig> I got a buddy that lives up there, his building was caught up in that mess last night.
