The Utah man charged with killing Charlie Kirk is making his first in-person court appearance Thursday as his attorneys push to further limit media access in the high-profile criminal case. A Utah judge has been weighing the publicâs right to know details in Tyler Robinsonâs case against his attorneysâ concerns that the swarm of media attention could interfere with his right to a fair trial. Prosecutors have charged Robinson with aggravated murder in the Sept. 10 shooting of the conservative activist on the Utah Valley University campus. They plan to seek the death penalty. Judge Tony Graf could decide on a request from law enforcement and Robinsonâs legal team to ban cameras in the courtroom.

President Donald Trump won't be getting his wish, at least not soon. ABC says that it has signed late-night comic Jimmy Kimmel to a one-year contract. His previous multiyear contract had been set to expire in May 2026, so this will keep him on the air at least until May 2027. The network had suspended Kimmel in September following remarks made after GOP activist Charlie Kirk's assassination, but put him back on the air following a public protest. He continued poking fun at the president relentlessly, leading Trump to urge ABC last month to âget the bum off the air.â

President Donald Trump is accusing half a dozen Democratic lawmakers of sedition âpunishable by DEATHâ after the lawmakers â all veterans of the armed services and intelligence community â called on U.S. military members to uphold the Constitution and defy âillegal ordersâ in a video posted to X. The 90-second video was first posted early Tuesday from Sen. Elissa Slotkinâs X account. In it, the six lawmakers speak directly to U.S. service members, whom Slotkin acknowledges are âunder enormous stress and pressure right now.â
