I spent the afternoon going back and forth with the FTC on this. LPT: If you still want to try to get a slice of this money, you might want to WAIT a few years. — PolitiTweet.org

Problem is, out of the $300 million Equifax paid in the settlement, only $31 million is going toward these checks (which are meant to cover the cost of non-Equifax credit monitoring). Divide $31 million by all the people who are asking for money and… you get the idea. — PolitiTweet.org

Here’s how it works: Under the settlement, if you were affected by the Equifax breach, you can apply for either free credit monitoring OR up to $125 in cash. — PolitiTweet.org

You’ll get “nowhere near” the full $125 from Equifax if you filed for a check instead of free credit monitoring, the FTC says: https://t.co/8ibQ0SkTIH — PolitiTweet.org

Because it would be pre-taped, each episode could also contain plenty of thorough fact-checking. And since listeners could skip forward or back at will, the episodes could be as long as you needed (within reason) to elicit meaningful answers. — PolitiTweet.org

Maybe you’d devote an episode to each candidate. Or maybe each episode would focus on a specific issue, like climate or guns. — PolitiTweet.org
