In related news, Michael Bay could have totally banged any - ANY - actress or model he wanted, but didn't want to.

Ahem, it's White House Press Secretary Billy Bush to you.

It depends. I'd double check the employee manual (if it's updated to cover social media or mentions mingling private and workplace communications) and maybe ask HR what's their SOP for online harassment.

Like the other commenter said, check the fine print. Also, this stoppage will result in either a re-route (best case) or the incoming administration restarts it because Trump has investments with one of the pipeline backers. The likelihood that your uncle gets screwed is basically up to the run-of-the-mill corporate
