NEW: A stunning new project from @lawfare's Katherine Pompilio finds that 97 Jan. 6ers who received clemency for their role in the Capitol riot then got arrested, charged, and/or convicted with subsequent crimes—a number much higher than previously reported.

Tell the publishers to stop blocking @waybackmachine 🚫🕳️ savethearchive.com/newsleade…
Several local newspaper companies — USA Today Co., McClatchy, Advance Local, MediaNews Group, and Tribune Publishing — have begun blocking @internetarchive's access.
That's more than 340 U.S. local news sites in all, a new @NiemanLab analysis by @decka227 and @HanaaTameez shows.

But some publishers are now blocking the Wayback Machine.
