The US federal Office of Special Counsel -- where formal whistleblower complaints go -- "is experiencing intermittent problems with our phone lines and voicemail system" https://osc.gov/Pages/Contact.aspx (accessed 22 May '20) I just got someone there by phone ~2 hours ago, trying to get the FOIA public liaison officer. Weird. Any other agencies saying this? On quick check, NASA & FCC aren't. KIRK: Do they tie in? SPOCK: I don't know. KIRK: Speculate. SPOCK: I have already given Doctor McCoy sufficient cause for amusement. I'd prefer to cogitate the possibilities for a time. KIRK: A short time, Mister Spock. We have very little. Could be something routine, or could be interference, or could be -- lol -- their phone lines are tied up with so many whistleblower(?) calls. One would hope. Though somebody might have just tripped over a cord.
