🗣 "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
