Oh wow it's almost like the FBI is filled with white nationalist and has been for a long ass time

And traitors to our country. But I guess I'm just repeating what you wrote when it comes to it.

Conservatism is a national security threat.

I mean… in this case they’re going after a former president. Of course there’d be some hesitation. Even just to protect the symbol of the president.

But just like everything, Trump turned everything he touched to shit and now the office of the president is forever tainted because of it. It’s insane that we actually have to have a criminal probe into a president inciting terrorism in their own country

It’s funny that people think that cops stop being nazis just because they work for the federal government.

#ACAB

He's finally part of the "in" crowd. Notice that both Republicans and Democrats are pretty much eager to avoid looking at his crimes; instead both parties are just fundraising off of him.

I get an error when attempting to open this link, anyone else?

Cloudflare and archive.is apparently don't agree on how to implement DNS, so if you're using 1.1.1.1 (like myself) you'll get an error. This is the explanation I had seen elsewhere and I was like "Yep, that applies to me." (I assume it's happening with all variations of the archive site including archive.ph)

I found this^1 by searching around HackerNews, seems like a relatively decent overview of what is happening. Kinda paints the archive team in a not-so-great light, in respect to privacy considerations, in my opinion.

Ahh, interesting. I do indeed use 1.1.1.1, in part because of DNS-over-TLS that it supports. Thanks for the link.

Is 1.1.1.1 like open source DNS? I used 8.8.8.8 (4.4.8.8?) for a long time when ISPs sometimes we're flaky, any pointers for what to use nowadays?

8.8.8.8 is Google's DNS, which is not very privacy respecting of which sites you access. 1.1.1.1 is Cloudflare's and it is a lot more privacy-respecting while still being imperfect. However their track record in the privacy/security community is currently quite good, so it's up to you if those imperfections are a problem or not.
