Late-night hosts back Jimmy Kimmel in free speech row

America’s late-night TV hosts have rallied behind Jimmy Kimmel after ABC suspended him over comments about the killing of conservative activist Charlie Kirk. Stephen Colbert opened his show declaring “we are all Jimmy Kimmel,” calling the suspension a “blatant assault on freedom of speech.” Seth Meyers praised Kimmel as “a privilege and honour to call my friend,” while Jon Stewart and Jimmy Fallon performed satirical sketches mocking the pressure to praise Donald Trump. The move followed remarks from President Trump, who suggested major networks could have their licenses “taken away” for negative coverage. Kimmel had criticized MAGA supporters in his Monday monologue, accusing them of exploiting Kirk’s death for political gain. He also ridiculed Trump’s response, comparing it to “how a four-year-old mourns a goldfish.” Federal Communications Commission (FCC) chairman Brendan Carr condemned Kimmel’s comments as “sick,” accusing him of […]

Trump: Putin has ‘let me down’ as UK state visit concludes

US President Donald Trump wrapped up his historic second UK state visit on Thursday with blunt words for Russian leader Vladimir Putin, saying he had “really let me down” over the war in Ukraine. Speaking alongside Prime Minister Keir Starmer at Chequers, Trump revealed he had expected the Ukraine conflict to be the “easiest” to resolve because of his personal ties with Putin. “He’s really let me down,” Trump said. “If the price of oil comes down, Putin’s going to drop out of that war. Europe must stop buying Russian oil.” The two leaders discussed a range of issues, including Ukraine, Gaza, trade, migration, and technology. ‘Unbreakable bond’ and tech deal Earlier in the day, Trump hailed America’s “unbreakable bond” with Britain as both countries signed a landmark tech deal spanning artificial intelligence, quantum computing, and nuclear energy. The deal […]

Schumer warns of shutdown fight with Trump, GOP

Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer is signaling a tougher stance in the latest government funding battle, warning that Democrats are prepared to block a stopgap measure unless Republicans roll back some of their most controversial policies. Back in March, Schumer voted to keep the government open and convinced enough Democrats to do the same, a decision that sparked backlash from the left. This time, however, he says circumstances are different. President Donald Trump and GOP leaders need at least seven Senate Democrats to break a filibuster and avoid a shutdown after September 30. Republicans have put forward a clean funding extension through November 21, including $30 million to boost lawmaker security. But Schumer and his colleagues argue that Trump’s Medicaid cuts, efforts to weaken Congress’ spending authority, and the looming expiration of Obamacare subsidies for 22 million Americans demand a […]

Charlie Kirk suspect’s note, texts revealed in court

Newly released charging documents from Utah County officials reveal chilling details about the suspected killer of conservative commentator Charlie Kirk. Prosecutors allege that Tyler Robinson, the accused gunman, texted his roommate on the day of the shooting, discussing his rifle, possible motive, and the planning behind the attack. Investigators say Robinson left a handwritten note under his keyboard that read, “I had the opportunity to take out Charlie Kirk and I’m going to take it.” A photo of the note was later recovered by police. According to the filing, Robinson’s roommate — identified in court records as a biological male involved in a romantic relationship with Robinson — turned over their text messages to authorities. The texts revealed that Robinson had alerted his partner to the existence of the note, prompting a disturbing exchange. The documents provide the clearest account […]

Trump gets rare second UK state visit with King Charles

For the British, the distinction between state visits and official visits has always carried weight. State visits bring full royal pageantry — guard of honor, cavalry bands, and formal banquets — making them a prized instrument of diplomacy. Traditionally, second-term US presidents have not been granted such honors. Donald Trump, however, is breaking that convention. This week, King Charles III will host the former president and First Lady Melania Trump for an unprecedented second state visit. Only four US presidents have ever received this level of reception, and Trump now accounts for half of them. The royal family has spared no effort to prepare. Trump’s two-day agenda includes a carriage procession through Windsor Castle, a flyover by the Red Arrows, and a rare “beating retreat” military ceremony — both firsts for a state visit. A grand banquet at St George’s […]

Palestinians flee Gaza as Israel offensive expands

Thousands of Palestinians are continuing to flee Gaza City as Israel’s major ground offensive enters its second day. Heavy bombardments overnight hit residential areas and medical facilities, including three strikes on the al-Rantisi Children’s Hospital, Gaza’s only specialist center for cancer and kidney patients. The attack forced many families and patients to evacuate, though no casualties were reported from the hospital itself. According to Gaza’s Hamas-run health ministry, at least 35 people were killed across the territory overnight, mostly in the north. The Israeli military announced it had targeted more than 150 locations in Gaza City within two days to weaken Hamas fighters and secure the release of hostages. Aid agencies including Save the Children and Oxfam condemned the operation, warning of a worsening humanitarian disaster. They stressed that the “inhumanity of the situation in Gaza is unconscionable” and urged […]

Trump set for lavish UK state visit with royal pomp at Windsor

Britain is preparing to give Donald Trump an unprecedented second UK state visit on Wednesday, rolling out royal pageantry on a scale not seen in decades. King Charles III will greet the US president at Windsor Castle, where a day of ceremonial splendor, military displays, and a lavish state banquet is planned — all staged behind closed doors and away from expected noisy protests. Trump, 79, becomes the first US president to receive two UK state visits, underscoring Britain’s bid to win his favor at a time of global uncertainty. Officials say the welcome will be the biggest military ceremonial reception in living memory, eclipsing even Queen Elizabeth II’s hosting of Trump in 2019. It will include: A carriage procession with King Charles and Queen Camilla inside Windsor grounds A 120-horse guard of honour with 1,300 troops The first-ever joint […]

Suspect in Charlie Kirk killing to face US court in Utah

The suspect accused of killing Charlie Kirk, a prominent conservative activist and founder of Turning Point USA, will be charged in a Utah court on Tuesday, authorities confirmed. Kirk, a close ally of former President Donald Trump, was shot dead last week during a speaking event on a university campus in Utah. According to investigators, 22-year-old Tyler Robinson allegedly fired a single shot from a rifle, striking Kirk in the neck from a rooftop vantage point. Robinson was arrested following a 33-hour manhunt. Kirk, a father of two, had built a large following across TikTok, Instagram, and YouTube, where he promoted conservative views and often criticized the transgender rights movement. A polarizing figure, he frequently shared edited clips of his campus debates that amplified his confrontational style. The FBI’s handling of the case has come under scrutiny. FBI Director Kash […]

US, China ‘very close’ to TikTok deal as trade talks resume in Madrid

The United States is “very close” to finalising a deal with China over TikTok, US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said Monday as trade talks resumed in Madrid. Bessent and Chinese Vice Premier He Lifeng opened discussions on Sunday, aiming to ease tensions over trade and technology between the world’s two largest economies. The meetings will run until Wednesday — the deadline for TikTok to secure a buyer or face a ban in the US. “On the TikTok deal itself, we’re very close to resolving the issue,” Bessent told reporters on arrival at Spain’s foreign ministry for the second day of talks.“If we don’t reach an agreement on TikTok, it doesn’t affect the overall relationship between the two countries. It’s still very good at the highest levels,” he added. TikTok’s Chinese parent company ByteDance faces a US law requiring the platform’s […]
