Rapper Tekashi 6ix9ine arrested in New York on parole violation claims – National

Rapper Tekashi 6ix9ine tried unsuccessfully Tuesday to persuade a federal judge not to send him to jail, calling him “bro” and insisting he never meant to violate the terms of his probation from a felony conviction. Judge Paul A. Engelmayer in Manhattan ordered him detained for at least two weeks, citing alleged misconduct such as failing drug tests and declining to obtain required permission to travel — acts that he said would reflect a lack of respect for the law.The judge also noted that the performer left the Dominican Republic this year, violating a court order to remain there after he was arrested in January on domestic violence charges and detained in October 2023 after he was accused of assaulting a local music producer. His lawyers say he’s being treated unfairly there in a corrup...

Russia fines Google more than world’s entire GDP for blocking YouTube accounts | World News

Google has reportedly racked up a fine of more than two undecillion rubles - two followed by 36 zeros - after it removed state-run and pro-government accounts from YouTube.Put another way, an undecillion is a trillion times a trillion times a trillion. The fine is far greater than the world's total GDP, estimated at $110 trillion by the International Monetary Fund.Google - which owns YouTube - has a current stock market value of $2.16 trillion, so probably won't be stumping up the cash any time soon.The fine is also still growing due to non-payment and, if not paid within nine months, will start to double every day, reported state news agency Tass. The mind-boggling amount has grown because Google hasn't restored YouTube accounts belonging to 17 Russian TV channels, according to Russia's R...
