Mr. Bannon told the committee over the weekend that he was willing to testify, preferably in a public hearing. His trial is scheduled to begin July 18 on two counts of criminal contempt. Mr. Bannon initially refused to comply with the committee’s January 6 subpoena in October. “The defendant’s last-minute efforts to testify, nearly nine months after his default — he has yet to make any effort to produce records — are irrelevant to whether he willfully refused to comply with the Select Committee’s subpoena,” prosecutors said....

“They are not sure that surely the Muscovites and those from St. Petersburg, Yekaterinburg and elsewhere will be ready to do it.” Officials said the West also does not expect the worst of the Russian economic blow to arrive until the fall as sanctions, such as oil embargoes, begin to bite. Speculation of a mass mobilization has swirled since the start of the war, but Mr Putin has resisted the urge to send civilians into battle, even as the Russian military struggles to gain ground....

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is promoting the payments in various whistle stops in the Ottawa area today, calling them a way to “bring Canadians along” in the fight against climate change without causing them financial hardship. People who filed their 2021 tax returns in Ontario, Alberta, Manitoba and Saskatchewan received the deposits Friday, to cover half the amount they can expect to receive for the 2022-23 fiscal year. The rest will come in quarterly payments in mid-September and mid-January....

Sylvie Bellemare was fired from the regional health authority, CISSS de Lanaudière, in March 2021 after her patient, Jocelyne Ottawa, then 62, said the nurse and one of her colleagues he treated her with contempt and humiliated her when she visited the clinic to have a bandage changed. Ottawa said Bellemare asked her to sing a song in Atikamekw and asked her if she was known as Joyce in her community – just months after another Atikamekw woman named Joyce Echaquan has died at a nearby hospital shortly after she recorded herself being mocked by medical staff....

Britain’s Conservative Party has long been seen as a bastion of privilege – largely made up of upper-class white men. But the race to succeed Boris Johnson as leader has become the most polarized in British political history and party members could soon choose the country’s first prime minister from an ethnic minority. Of the 11 Tory MPs vying for the leadership, six are racists, including front-runner Rishi Sunak and front-runners Nadhim Zahawi, the Chancellor of the Exchequer, former health secretary Sajid Javid and Kemi Badenoch, who is seen as an up-and-comer star in the party....

With the Wallabies unbeaten in their previous 10 games at their beloved home ground, it was a result that will encourage the England management to believe their team could still fly home triumphant. A strong forward display in the first half propelled their side to a crucial 19-0 half-time lead and, despite a spirited Wallaby fightback, the flood of points was decisive. It probably ranks as the most satisfying away win away from England since the 2019 World Cup semi-final, with the decider in Sydney on Saturday still to come....

Liverpool won the FA Cup and League Cup but their hopes of an unprecedented quadruple were dashed within the space of a week when they were pipped to the Premier League title by Manchester City before losing 1-0 to Real Madrid in the European Cup final. But Henderson is confident Liverpool will bounce back quickly from the disappointment like they have managed in previous campaigns. Liverpool lost the Champions League final to Real Madrid in 2018 but responded by winning the competition the following season and romped to a first Premier League title in 2020 12 months after narrowly missing out to City....
