Something fishy is going on yet again. The US State Department site earlier had a footnote claiming first that Donald Trump’s presidency ended at 2021-01-11 19:40:41 (or 7:40 pm DC Time). Later, it was changed to 19:49:00 for 7:49 pm tonight. If you try to go to the State Department site’s now (at the time of this post), you get a 404 (not found) error that reads “We’re sorry, this site is currently experiencing technical difficulties.
Please try again in a few moments.

Either the State Department’s site was hacked, a NeverTrump goon added that to the page or something fishy is going on yet again.
Was the State Department hacked or is there just a glitch? It says Trump's term ended today citing a time that appears to be GMT. That can't be real right?https://t.co/cRcqmslP2V pic.twitter.com/o3sTwW5b7M

TAKING BETS ON WHAT IS HAPPENING TO THE STATE DEPARTMENT WEBSITE
3/1 Boring hack
8/1 Trump resigned
11/1 Trump died trying to send a tweet via carrier pigeon and somehow electrocuted himself pic.twitter.com/LtDV2DMLxK— TechnicallyRon (@TechnicallyRon) January 11, 2021

NOW: U.S. State Department webpage says President Trump & Vice President Mike Pence’s terms “ended” today, but then it lists an hour & minute that hasn’t yet occurred: 19:40:41 / 7:40pm.
Something isn’t right.
Expect statement from @StateDept soon. https://t.co/Od5tY4v2yK pic.twitter.com/DCFKCmgwPQ— David Begnaud (@DavidBegnaud) January 11, 2021
