The World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) has unanimously agreed to ban Russia from major international sporting competitions -- notably the Olympics and the World Cup -- for four years over doping non-compliance.WADA's compliance review committee (CRC) had suggested several sanctions because of the Russian Anti-Doping Agency's (RUSADA) failure to cooperate fully during probes into Russian sport.WADA's executive committee decided to uphold the recommendations at a meeting in Lausanne, Switzerland on Monday.RUSADA now has 21 days to accept the decision or send the matter to the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS).If upheld, the decision means Russia will be unable to compete in next year's Olympic Games in Tokyo nor the 2022 FIFA World Cup in Qatar.Why the ban?WADA's punishment relates to inconsistencies in data retrieved by WADA in January 2019 from the Moscow lab at the center of the 2016 McLaren report, which uncovered a widespread and sophisticated state-sponsored sports doping network.RUSADA was initially deemed non-compliant after the publication of the McLaren report in 2016.Commissioned by WADA, the report found the Russian state conspired with athletes and sporting officials to undertake a doping program that was unprecedented in its scale and ambition.The findings led to sanctions, including no Russian team being present at the 2018 Winter Olympic Games in Pyeongchang, with certain eligible athletes being forced to compete under a neutral flag.The latest ban leaves the door open for Russian athletes, who can prove they are not tainted by the scandal, to compete as neutral athletes. 1624

The US economy added 224,000 jobs in June, a strong comeback for the labor market after a disappointing May.The unemployment rate rose to 3.7%, the highest level since March 2019 but still historically low.The number substantially beat the expectations of analysts, who had forecast a drag on jobs because of business uncertainty around high trade tensions as well as a lackluster housing market.Adding to the positive story, 335,000 people entered the labor force in June — substantially more than usual — which may have been what pushed the unemployment rate up slightly. It's a remarkable feat for an economy that has been soaking up workers for 106 straight months now, and an indication that people are still finding reasons to go back to work.The number looks more like the more robust 2018 monthly job gain average than the lower average so far in 2019, forestalling concerns about a sharp slowdown even as indicators of business sentiment have turned negative.Wages rose 3.1% from a year earlier, slightly lower than forecast but still reasonably strong.The largest gains came in health care and professional and business services, although manufacturing turned in a robust 17,000 jobs after four months of little change — a surprise turnaround for an industry that has been flagging with higher raw material costs due to tariffs and the downturn of world trade. 1382

The Pentagon has formally launched a new space-focused development agency that it hopes will form a central part of President Donald Trump's sought-after Space Force.Acting Secretary of Defense Pat Shanahan formally launched the Space Development Agency Tuesday, according to a copy of a memo obtained by CNN.The agency will fall under the new US Space Force, should Congress approve the latter's establishment.The goal of the agency is to put all US military space technology development under one roof to speed procurement. However, the memo does not make clear what will become of the Air Force's Space and Missile Systems Center and Space Rapid Capabilities Office, which participate in the development of such capabilities.The agency's creation has been met with some criticism from those who feel it may be redundant."I think there's still concern and I have some concerns about what is the mission of this entity, why do we think it would be better than what we currently do? What exactly would be focused on?" Air Force Secretary Heather Wilson said last month at the Air Warfare Symposium in Orlando, Florida."Conceptually, there has been a public discussion of this. Conceptually, it would be stood up and then rolled into a Space Force which means it would be a new agency that would exist for probably less than a year," she added.Wilson recently announced her intention to resign.Shanahan's memo says the new agency "will accelerate the development and fielding of new military space capabilities necessary to ensure our technological and military advantage in space for national defense."Space assets developed by the Military Intelligence Program will remain separate.The agency is being tasked with developing advanced space military capabilities and "will be focused on experimentation, prototyping and accelerated fielding as well as leveraging commercial technologies and services" according to the Pentagon's 2020 budget request.The budget request sought nearly 0 million in "new resources" for the new agency, which will have some 50 personnel assigned to it — a mix of reassigned and new personnel.Dr. Fred Kennedy, currently the director of the Tactical Technology Office at DARPA, has been tapped to lead the agency, according to the memo. 2278

The Pentagon will deploy about 1,500 extra troops to Saudi Arabia in answer to requests by the leading US military commander in the Middle East and, in part, because the US Navy is unable to send a relief aircraft carrier to deter potential Iranian aggression, multiple US officials tell CNN.The move to bolster troops in the Middle East comes as President Donald Trump's decision to pull back US military forces from northeastern Syria has prompted bipartisan criticism from lawmakers who say the President has given Turkey an opening to 551

The White House has flatly rejected the House Judiciary Committee's request for documents in its sweeping investigation into possible obstruction of justice and abuses of power, accusing the Democratically-controlled committee of seeking to recreate the special counsel investigation to harass the President.White House Counsel Pat Cipollone sent a letter Wednesday to House Judiciary Chairman Jerry Nadler arguing that the committee's request for documents was illegitimate."It appears that the Committee's inquiry is designed, not to further a legitimate legislative purpose, but rather to conduct a pseudo law enforcement investigation on matters that were already the subject of the Special Counsel's long-running investigation and are outside the constitutional authority of the legislative branch," Cipollone wrote."Congressional investigations are intended to obtain information to aid in evaluating potential legislation, not to harass political opponents or to pursue an unauthorized 'do-over' of exhaustive law enforcement investigations conducted by the Department of Justice," he added.The letter adds yet another layer to the escalating feud between the White House and House Democrats over their numerous investigations into the Trump administration and President Donald Trump's businesses and finances.Trump has already declared that his administration will fight all of the House subpoenas — several of which are now being fought in court. The Judiciary Committee voted last week to hold Attorney General William Barr in contempt for not providing the full Mueller report and evidence and the Ways and Means Committee has issued a subpoena for Trump's personal and business tax returns.Nadler and other House Democratic leaders are now raising the prospect they will hold numerous administration officials in contempt at the same time as part of a package to highlight the Trump administration's stonewalling of Congress. Some Democrats are also talking about invoking Congress' so-called inherent contempt powers to fine or jail those who defy congressional subpoenas.Cipollone's letter, which was first 2133
