PROBLEM: MOSCOW (Reuters) - Russian opposition leader Alexei Navalny was barred on Monday from running in next year’s presidential election after officials ruled he was ineligible to take part due to a suspended prison sentence he says was trumped up.
The decision by the central election commission was widely expected as election officials had repeatedly declared  Navalny  would be ineligible to run. Twelve members of the 13-member commission voted to bar  Navalny . One member abstained  citing a possible conflict of interest.
 Navalny   41  who polls show would struggle to beat incumbent Vladimir Putin in the March election  said he would appeal and called on his supporters to boycott the election and campaign against it being held.
“We knew this could happen  and so we have a straight-forward  clear plan ”  Navalny  said in a pre-recorded video released immediately after the decision.
 Navalny  said  he  would use  his  campaign headquarters across Russia to support the boycott and monitor turnout on voting day  March 18.
Polls show Putin  65  who has dominated Russia’s political landscape for the last 17 years  is on course to be comfortably re-elected  making  him  eligible to serve another six years until 2024  when  he  turns 72.
 Navalny  says Putin’s support is exaggerated and artificially maintained by a biased state media and an unfair system. He says he could defeat him in a fair election  an assertion Putin’s supporters have said is laughable.
‘DO  THE RIGHT THING’

Before the commission voted   Navalny   dressed in a dark suit  had demanded  he  be allowed to take part in the election delivering a speech that angered election officials.
In one heated exchange   he  said Russian voters’ faith in the system hung in the balance.
“If you do not allow me to run  you are taking a decision against millions of people who are demanding that  Navalny  take part ”  he  said  referring to  himself  in the first person.
“You are not robots  you are living  breathing human beings you are an independent body ... for once in your lives  do the right thing ”  he  said.
 His  supporters clapped  him   but officials were unmoved.
Ebzeev said there could not be “the slightest doubt” that  Navalny  was ineligible to run  a reference to Russia’s constitution that bars him running because of his suspended sentence relating to an embezzlement case.
 Navalny  has repeatedly denied any wrongdoing  and says the case is politically motivated.

Although  raised a strict Catholic  Bettencourt Meyers  married the grandson of a rabbi killed in Aushwitz â all the more notable given that L'Oreal's founder  EugÃ¨ne Schueller  was a known Nazi sympathizer .
 Bettencourt Meyers  is arguably best known for bringing legal action against  her  mother  after the elder Bettencourt began giving away millions in assets and insurance to society photographer FranÃ§ois-Marie Banier  with whom she'd struck up an unusual friendship.  Bettencourt Meyers  accused Banier of preying on  her  mother's onsetting dementia. When  Bettencourt Meyers  sued   her  mother responded by calling  her  daughter âune emmerdeuseâ (a pain in the ass)  according to Vanity Fair .
The case was ultimately decided in  Bettencourt Meyers'  favor  and  she  and  her  two sons were named guardians of Lilianeâs interests in 2011.

PROBLEM: (CNN)  Former White House communications director Anthony Scaramucci  suggested that John Kelly is handling the fallout from the Rob Porter scandal poorly by trying to "cover it up."
"The cover-up is always worse than the crime "  Scaramucci  told David Axelrod in an upcoming segment of "The Axe Files " a podcast from the University of Chicago Institute of Politics and CNN.
"I would say  'Jeez  you know  I knew about it. I was going to give the guy a pass because he told me it wasn't true and I apologize to the American people for that. He's been let go and I'd still like to keep my job "'  Scaramucci  explained. "That's what I would do if I was General Kelly."
 Scaramucci  said if  he  were the White House chief of staff   he  wouldn't say  he  "didn't know about it when ( he ) knew about it or try to cover it."
"We're in a society now where everyone's going to find out everything anyway "  he  noted.
