Okay so...this all started during our Office 365 setup. According to Microsoft, you have to delete your on-premises federation trust from Exchange, verify the domain, then add it back...otherwise you get an obscure error message when validating the domain name.
So I did this...except now the federation trust is broken. I get the following message from "Test-FederationTrust -Verbose":

What the heck does this mean? There's no passwords in a federated trust! I've attempted to recreate the trust multiple times to no avail. I also attempted to re-use the certificate the trust was working with before but that wasn't working either.
This also breaks the organizational relationships with the same message. I've asked our MSP and they have no idea what's wrong. Before I drop the money on a support ticket to Microsoft themselves ...has anyone seen this error message before?
I have also posted my Get-FederationTrust output below (scrubbed for security purposes, obviously):
