Jimmy Kimmel’s

suspension ends

NEW YORK (AP) — ABC will reinstate Jimmy Kimmel’s late-night show after suspending it due to his comments about the assassination of conservative activist Charlie Kirk.

The network announced Monday that the show would return on Tuesday. Kimmel faced backlash for his remarks, leading major affiliates like Nexstar and Sinclair to pull his show.

President Trump, a frequent target of Kimmel’s jokes, celebrated the suspension. Kimmel expressed concern about potential government crackdowns on comedians. His suspension comes amid a shifting late-night landscape and ongoing debates about media control and free speech.

Putin says Russia

will extend pact

MOSCOW (AP) — Russian President Vladimir Putin has announced that Moscow will adhere to nuclear arms limits for one more year after the last remaining nuclear pact with the U.S. expires.

The 2010 New START treaty is set to expire in February. Putin on Monday emphasized the importance of maintaining the status quo to avoid a strategic arms race. He urged the U.S. to follow suit and warned against actions that could disrupt the balance of deterrence.

The treaty limits each country to 1,550 deployed nuclear warheads and 700 deployed missiles and bombers.

Earthquake

rattles Bay Area

BERKELEY, Calif. (AP) — Residents across the San Francisco Bay Area were jolted awake by a moderate earthquake that was felt widely across the region.

The 4.3 magnitude quake hit shortly before 3 a.m. Monday just east-southeast of Berkeley, according to the U.S. Geological Survey. No injuries or major damage was reported, but some businesses said windows were broken and merchandise tumbled from shelves.

Bay Area Rapid Transit trains ran with delays for several hours as crews made safety inspections of the tracks systemwide. BART said trains returned to regular service around midday.
