This claim is quite hyperbolic. Lynching was always a state crime and has long been a federal crime too. All the 2022 act did was increase the sentencing for some things that were already federal crimes.
That is, it was congress pushing the "increase incarceration" button it uses for everything.

The first comma sounds wrong to me when the conjunction is "And" too.

Billy, pipe down and get in the car.
And Mother, please don't wear that tiara tonight. We're just going to a Wendy's.

Isn’t it a time-unlimited stay pending the CoA ruling, plus a 48-hr additional stay?

Chat, I’m getting roasted by the orcas.

Are we looking at the same administrative subpoena upthread? It's seeking "information on customer behind archive.today", but it's "TO: Tucows.com, Co.", and all the "YOU"s are Tucows.

Arrrgh,
In DNS parlance, the registrant is the "domain owner", who pays a fee to a *registrar to register the domain. In the case of archive.org, the Internet Archive is the registrant and EasyDNS is the registrar.

Right, it's asking TuCows, the registrar, to turn over all information it has about its customer, the registrant, Archive.is.
This would only be a step toward friendly communication with the registrant if the domain in question were long expired or dormant with no known way to reach the registrant.

ugh, *registrar (one of those two-letter errors that can cause big confusion)

Are the pair of affidavits you're thinking of sworn by people at EasyDNS (the archive.org registrant) or people at the Internet Archive?

UNCLASSIFIED U.S. DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE/FEDERAL BUREAU OF INVESTIGATION SUBPOENA FD-1035 (REV 2017-06-30) Subpoena number: 1098808 When responding please reference this subpoena number. In the matter of case number(s): 305A-HQ-1497320-1045 PG TO: Tucows.com, Co. Custodian of Records TELEPHONE: 000-000-0000 ADDRESS: 96 Mowat Avenue FAX: Toronto, ON, M6K 3M1, Canada (CA) GREETING: By the service of this subpoena upon you by William Greenwell, Jr., who is authorized to serve it, you are hereby commanded and required to disclose to William Greenwell, Jr., a representative of the FBI, the following information for the period 2024-10-30 to 2025-10-30 or the billing cycle including the requested time period: Customer or subscriber name, address of service, and billing address; Length of service (including start date and end date); Local and long distance telephone connection records (examples include: incoming and outgoing calls, push-to-talk, and SMS/MMS connection records); Means and source of payment (including any credit card or bank account number); Records of session times and duration for Internet connectivity; Telephone or Instrument number (including IMEI, IMSI, UFMI, and ESN) and/or other customer/subscriber number(s) used to identify customer/subscriber, including any temporarily assigned network address (including Internet Protocol addresses); Types of service used (e.g. push-to-talk, text, three-way calling, email services, cloud computing, gaming services, etc.) which may be relevant to an authorized law enforcement inquiry, involving the following: Subscriber information on customer behind archive.today Please see the attached page explaining some terms that may be used in this demand. All time values are in the US/Eastern time zone, unless otherwise indicated. THE INFORMATION SOUGHT THROUGH THIS SUBPOENA RELATES TO A FEDERAL CRIMINAL INVESTIGATION BEING CONDUCTED BY THE FBL. YOUR COMPANY IS REQUIRED TO FURNISH THIS INFORMATION. YOU ARE REQUESTED NOT TO DISC…

That request is directed to the registrar, Tucows, and good for them for not complying and instead sharing it with their customer.

Isn't it obvious that the operator of achive.is is either:
(a) someone you can reach through the "ask me" button at archive.is; or
(b) someone who will never swear an affidavit for you.
Either way, there's no point in the subpoena if you just want to authenticate a record.

You'd contact the site's operator and make a request, like a normal person. (There's an "ask me" button right on the home page.) Not subpoena the registrar compelling production of all information about the registrant, like a fucking cop, ensuring there will never be any cooperation from the site.

Damn, less than 24 hours after Zohran’s elected I see a socialist flyer in Indiana for the first time. Guess we’ll soon be a the-other-red state.

Yes, and that’s good, but neither of those are in the post. And I think the fame of the one org, the obscurity of the other, and the misleading name all add up to the better headline being “Head of breakaway Anglican sect …”, with the org’s chosen name relegated to the subhed.

Don't know what else was said, but from the image I'd guess she's just saying that current marriages wouldn't be invalidated, not that the Court wouldn't allow states to stop allowing new (never-relied-on) same-sex marriages.

I actually don't agree that it's too late. But the application seemed pretty bogus in other ways.

9. A memorandum in support of TRO will be subsequently filed

Did he say whether this still applies?

Yeah, it really should be right in the skeet that this is not actually the thing that everyone has always thought of as "the Anglican Church in North America".

But at least the "Kirk Anus Tweet" Skeet is real, and enjoyable on its own.

Is there really such a thing as "a Wisconsin 7th Circuit seat"? I thought you were referring to some state court, but I guess you mean a seat on the U.S.C.A. circuit that oversees three states, to which a Wisconsonite has been nominated?
Is there a statute designating this seat a Wisconsin seat?

THE WHITE HOUSE HISTORICAL ASSOCIATION White House Historical Association Statement on October 22, 2025 (Washington, D.C.) – Since 1961, the mission of the White House Historical Association has been to document and share the history of the White House while providing private, non-taxpayer funding to preserve and enhance the White House Collection of furnishings, fine art, and decorative objects, maintaining the museum standard set by our founder, First Lady Jacqueline Kennedy. While the Association has never had a role in reviewing or approving changes to the physical structure of the White House building, we remain dedicated to advancing the public's understanding of The White House and its history - from when the cornerstone was set in 1792, to present ensuring that all of its stories are preserved and shared for generations to come. Upon announcement of the Ballroom construction project by the White House, the White House Historical Association supported the preservation of East Wing history through a comprehensive digital scanning project and photography to create an historic record. The East Wing and gardens have been captured in detail for the benefit of our nation and historic artifacts from the East Wing have been preserved and stored. The White House Historical Association was able to support swift completion of this important work thanks to the generous philanthropy of our donors. November 1 marks 225 years since John and Abigail Adams moved into a White House that has undergone scores of changes and many additions over 47 presidencies. Our important role will continue with the support of thousands of Americans who cherish the historic White House and the history of those who have lived and worked there for 225 years.

I was just asking myself the same upon seeing this White House Historical Association statement about all its work since the announcement of the Ballroom project that ensured that "historic artifacts from the East Wing have been preserved and stored".

I think he would be impeached (would only need 3 R house votes) and probably tried (would only need 4 R senators to avoid a move like what prevented Biden's impeached Homeland Security secretary from being tried).

But a conviction and removal from office? We can only wish that were certain.

(Not that that overrides the lack of any apparent standing, let alone the lack of any identified cause of action or indication that an actual complaint is forthcoming.)

7. Plaintiffs therefore seek a TRO: a. Temporarily restraining and enjoining Defendants and any third parties from further destroying any portion of the White House until: (1) demolition and construction plans can be reviewed by NCPC, ACHP, SHPO, and CFA; and (2) the public review process is completed by the National Trust for Historic Preservation (“NTHP”). b. Requiring Defendants to show cause why this Court should not issue a preliminary injunction extending such temporary relief pending an adjudication on the merits; and c. Providing for other equitable relief.

They are seeking injunction of "destroying any portion of the White House". Because there are considerable remaining portions and POTUS has already recently expanded the amount of house destruction he says he'll stop at, I don't think this is moot at all.
