Trump’s ‘Secretary of War’ has had his ‘warrior personae’ spooked.

‘It’s a fitting honour that cements his extraordinary legacy alongside presidents and founding fathers who shaped our republic.’

‘The challenge we face is not just to fight against these creeping authoritarian tendencies.’

Kimmel was suspended for six days, sparking outrage across Hollywood.

The TV host held back tears as he addressed the backlash.

The Apple TV Plus series was expected to be released later this month.

Kimmel was suspended for six days, sparking outrage across Hollywood.

Jimmy Kimmel is set to return to late-night TV days after he was taken off air over his comments regarding Charlie Kirk.

In a broadcast which aired last week, the beloved host discussed the reception following the death of the right-wing political commentator – who was shot while speaking at a campus event in Utah earlier this month.

In his monologue, the 57-year-old claimed that the ‘MAGA gang’ was trying to gain political points over the incident, leading to Disney and ABC pulling his show from the air ‘indefinitely’.

After intense outrage from fans, and more than 400 celebrities signing an open letter condemning the decision, bosses have now backtracked and confirmed that Jimmy Kimmel Live will be back on Tuesday.

‘Last Wednesday, we made the decision to suspend production on the show to avoid further inflaming a tense situation at an emotional moment for our country,’ a statement from ABC and Disney said. 

‘It is a decision we made because we felt some of the comments were ill-timed and thus insensitive.

‘We have spent the last days having thoughtful conversations with Jimmy, and after those conversations, we reached the decision to return the show on Tuesday.’

Kirk, founder of Turning Point USA, was a close ally of Trump and an infamous commenter on issues including trans rights and gun control.

In shocking scenes, he was visiting Utah Valley University with his wife and kids as part of his group’s ‘America Comeback Tour’ when he was shot in the neck.

On Monday’s episode of the show – which Kimmel has hosted since 2003 – he referenced the situation in his opening monologue.

‘We had some new lows over the weekend with the MAGA gang desperately trying to characterise this kid who murdered Charlie Kirk as anything other than one of them and with everything they can to score political points from it,’ he said.

He also mentioned Donald Trump and sarcastically said how ‘hard the president is taking this’, before playing a clip of the politician being asked about Kirk’s death and pointing out construction of the White House.

Donald Trump and Elon Musk – once the darling duo of the Make America Great Again movement – shared a front row at Charlie Kirk’s memorial on Sunday.

Let’s just say it was not exactly a bromance revival.

After their relationship imploded in public view on X and TruthSocial, with the Tesla CEO reuniting conspiracy theories about the US president’s links to Jeffrey Epstein – the final nail in the coffin – the pair have not been seen together since June.

Cameras captured the their brief handshake and nods at Saturday’s service in Glendale, Arizona, where more than 60,000 people gathered to pay their respects to the far-right activist, who was assassinated on September 10.

Footage of the two was shared by the official White House account on X, which Musk owns.

Now, lip reader Nicola Hickling has revealed exactly what Trump and Musk said to each other.

She told the Daily Mail that the president turned to Musk to greet him and asked, ‘how are you doing’.

The businessman then appeared to shrug as Trump said: ‘So Elon, I have heard you wanted to chat.’

He then suggested, ‘Let’s try and work out how to get back on track.’

Musk responds by nodding his head. The president then hugs his hand and says: ‘I’ve missed you’.

Their conversation lasted only a few moments before Trump appeared to motion him away, and took to the stage to address the crowd.

On X afterward, Musk posted a picture of the two talking , with the caption ‘For Charlie.’

Meanwhile, the White House celebrated their reunion, captioning the post with a love-heart and handshake emoji.

Now, there is much speculation that the former allies may start working together again.

Musk donated more than $270 million to Trump’s presidential campaign, barnstorming key battleground states for the Republican.

After the election, he oversaw the launch of DOGE, a controversial initiative that eliminated thousands of government jobs deemed by the agency to be part of a pattern of waste, fraud and abuse.

But after 130 days as a ‘special government employee’ in the Oval Office, he was let go by the president, igniting their feud.

The fallout then played out over social media and saw Musk accuse the president of being named in the so-called ‘Epstein files’ – documents linked to the convicted sex offender.

And in July, Trump said he would ‘take a look’ at the idea of deporting Musk.
