🛢 Workers go on strike at northern California refinery owned by Chevron
More than 500 workers at a Chevron Corp. refinery in the San Francisco Bay Area went on strike early Monday in a contract dispute. It came after workers voted down Chevron’s most recent contract offer and the company refused to return to the bargaining table.
If the strike shuts down the refinery, which seems likely, it could negatively affect the already high gasoline prices in California, a state with highest regular gas price in the nation, at $5.86 per gallon, according to the American Automobile Association.
Chevron representatives complained that in Richmond, where the refinery is located, the union’s demands “exceeded what the company believes to be reasonable and moved beyond what was agreed to as part of the national pattern bargaining agreement.”

📊 Pence distances himself from Trump as he eyes 2024 campaign
Last month, Pence called out Trump by name, saying his former boss was “wrong” to insist that the former US VP had the power to unilaterally overturn the results of the 2020 election — a power vice presidents do not possess.
Pence has spent the past several months traveling the country, delivering policy speeches, raising money for midterm candidates and visiting early-voting states, while working on a pair of books. In the coming months, he is planning a return visit to Iowa, which holds the party’s first nominating contests of the presidential election cycle.
His political group, Advancing American Freedom, announced a $10 million ad campaign to support an expansion of American energy production. Still, early polls show that Trump remains the decisive favorite among GOP voters if the one-term US president chooses to mount another run. Without Trump in the race, Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis so far appears to be an early favorite.

📡 Russian media must mark the Meta company as an organization banned in the country, Russian media watchdog Roskomnadzor said in a statement.
🗣 "According to Article 4 of the Russian law "On Media", when distributing information, Russian media are obliged to mark such an organization and its social networks in their editorial materials. The marking must contain an indication that its activities in Russia are prohibited," it said.
Roskomnadzor said the responsibility for the media for the lack of such marking comes after the Russian Ministry of Justice includes an extremist organization in the corresponding list.
🗣 "Russian media are not allowed to display the logo of the Meta Platforms Inc. organization and its social networks Facebook and Instagram either," it said.
Roskomnadzor said it will exclude Instagram and Facebook from the register of social networks, and the Meta company from the list of foreign entities operating in the internet in Russia.
🚫 Moscow's Tverskoy Court on Monday banned Facebook and Instagram in Russia for extremist activity, but made an exception for WhatsApp.

Donald Trump vs Porn Star Stormy Daniels 2:0
A federal appeals court has denied Stormy Daniels' motion to strike down a lower court ruling in her failed defamation suit against @real_DonaldJTrump.
The longstanding legal battle between Daniels and the ex-president over her claim that they once had sex in 2006 appears to be over. Now the porn star will have to pay the former president nearly $300,000 in attorney fees.
Trump has already hailed the ruling as “a total and complete victory and vindication for, and of me”.
🗣 “The lawsuit was a purely political stunt that never should have started, or allowed to happen, and I am pleased that my lawyers were able to bring it to a successful conclusion after the court fully rejected her appeal. Now all I have to do is wait for all of the money she owes me. P.S. The Fake News probably won’t report this story!” he added
