In the United Kingdom, officials at Buckingham Palace say Prince Andrew will be stripped of his royal titles and will vacate his home at the Royal Lodge in Windsor. He will now be known as Andrew Mountbatten Windsor. This follows new revelations about the extent of Andrew’s friendship with the late serial sex offender Jeffrey Epstein and allegations by survivor Virginia Giuffre that Andrew forced her to have sex with him three times, beginning when she was 17. Giuffre died in April of an apparent suicide. Her family said Thursday that she’d “brought down a British prince with her truth and extraordinary courage.” A recent poll showed 91% of Britons have a negative opinion of Andrew. This is London resident Harry Humphries.

Harry Humphries: “So, I’m happy he’s got stripped of his titles, his royal titles, as well. He should be kicked out of the country, because these guys live off us. We’re the working class. We’re the people in charge, basically.”

Meanwhile, across the pond here in the U.S., House Speaker Mike Johnson is continuing to refuse to seat Arizona Congressmember-elect Adelita Grijalva. She would be the final vote needed for the discharge petition demanding that Congress release the Epstein files being held by the Department of Justice.
