Former Prince Andrew, now Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, was arrested on February 19, 2026 — his 66th birthday — by British police on suspicion of misconduct in public office after authorities began investigating allegations linked to his conduct during his time as a UK trade envoy. Thames Valley Police confirmed they arrested a man in his sixties in Norfolk on those suspicions and were carrying out searches at properties in both Norfolk and Berkshire; under UK procedure the arrested person was not immediately named but the reporting makes clear it was Mountbatten-Windsor. The inquiry stems from documents in the recently released Epstein files suggesting he may have shared confidential government information with convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, and he remains in custody while the investigation continues.The arrest represents a historic moment as the first senior British royal to be taken into custody in modern times and follows years of public scrutiny over his association with Epstein and prior civil litigation, including a high-profile settlement with accuser Virginia Giuffre. King Charles III responded to the news by affirming that “the law must take its course,” emphasizing cooperation with police, while Giuffre's family welcomed the development as a sign that no one is above the law. The exact legal outcome — whether formal charges will be filed — remains to be seen as the investigation unfolds.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:UK police arrest Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor for misconduct in public office | AP NewsBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.
Prince Harry skipped cousin Peter Phillips's wedding and reportedly "never felt more homesick," blaming Prince William for the rift — though a source close to Peter says they simply lost touch. Meghan marked Princess Lilibet's fifth birthday, reigniting a privacy debate with Piers Morgan. Thames Valley Police confirmed an expanding investigation into Prince Andrew over a 2002 Royal Ascot allegation; no charges have been filed. Trooping the Colour centered William, Kate, and their children, while Beatrice and Eugenie drew fresh scrutiny over royal housing.

Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor is reportedly facing another layer of police scrutiny, this time over an alleged incident involving a woman at Royal Ascot in 2002. Thames Valley Police are said to be examining that episode as part of a broader look at possible misconduct involving Andrew, including potential sexual misconduct, corruption, and fraud. The alleged incident took place during the high-profile racing festival, where senior royals were present, including Queen Elizabeth II, then-Prince Charles, Prince Edward, and Princess Beatrice. Details remain limited, but one royal commentator cited in the coverage said the woman involved was allegedly a waitress at the event, while Buckingham Palace has maintained that it no longer speaks for Andrew because he is no longer a working royal.The Royal Ascot claim comes as Andrew is already under wider investigative pressure connected to allegations tied to Jeffrey Epstein and alleged sex crimes at royal properties. Thames Valley Police previously said a man in his sixties from Norfolk had been arrested on February 19, 2026, on suspicion of misconduct in public office, interviewed under caution, and released under investigation while searches were carried out at addresses in Berkshire and Norfolk. Police also said they were working with the U.S. Department of Justice and the Crown Prosecution Service as part of what they described as a serious, complex, and sensitive investigation. The broader picture is that Andrew's Epstein-related disgrace is no longer just a reputational collapse or royal family embarrassment; it is now being framed through active police inquiries, potential witnesses, and questions about whether misconduct extended into royal spaces that were once shielded by status, protocol, and institutional silence.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Former Prince Andrew reportedly faces new probe over 2002 Royal Ascot incident | Fox News

British police, specifically Thames Valley Police, are currently assessing a complaint alleging that Prince Andrew, now Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, may have shared confidential government and trade information with the late convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. The inquiry was triggered by newly released U.S. Department of Justice documents showing email exchanges from 2010, while Andrew was serving as a UK trade envoy, in which he appears to have forwarded official reports on trade missions — including sensitive commercial and investment data — to Epstein shortly after receiving them. These actions have prompted a complaint from anti-monarchy campaigners alleging misconduct in public office and potential breaches of Britain's Official Secrets Act. Thames Valley Police have confirmed they are “assessing the information in line with our established procedures” and have held discussions with the Crown Prosecution Service to decide whether the case should advance into a full criminal investigation. Meanwhile, Buckingham Palace has stated that King Charles III and the royal family will support and cooperate with any legitimate police inquiry into the matter, and senior royals including Prince William and Princess Catherine have expressed deep concern over the ongoing revelations.The scope of the police inquiry extends beyond the alleged transmission of confidential trade reports: reports suggest authorities are also examining broader aspects of Andrew's relationship with Epstein, including claims regarding how that relationship persisted after Epstein's 2008 conviction. The inquiry remains in its early phases, with no formal charges filed yet, but the involvement of prosecutors and senior investigators underscores its seriousness. Andrew, who was stripped of his royal titles and duties in 2025 amid longstanding criticism over his ties to Epstein, denies wrongdoing, and the police have not committed to a timeline for a decision on whether to launch a formal investigation. The developments have intensified public scrutiny of both the former royal's conduct and the wider implications of the Epstein files for British public figures.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Andrew probed by criminal prosecutors over Epstein scandal as police issue major update after latest file bombshellBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Jess Michaels, a Jeffrey Epstein survivor, accused Buckingham Palace of helping shield Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor by failing to act on damaging material it reportedly received years earlier. The central issue is an archive of roughly 30,000 emails allegedly handed to the Palace's Lord Chamberlain in May 2020, tied to Andrew's work as a UK trade envoy and his dealings with powerful business figures. Those emails reportedly suggested Andrew may have shared sensitive or confidential government-related information, including material connected to his official role, and raised questions about whether the Palace had evidence of potential misconduct long before police action began.Michaels argued that the Palace's alleged inaction fits a broader pattern of institutions protecting powerful men while survivors were ignored, doubted, or left to fight alone. Andrew, who has denied wrongdoing, was later arrested on suspicion of misconduct in public office in connection with allegations that he passed sensitive information to Jeffrey Epstein, and Thames Valley Police are also assessing related claims involving possible sexual misconduct. The broader implication is that the scandal is no longer only about Andrew's relationship with Epstein or Virginia Giuffre's allegations, but about whether Buckingham Palace had information that should have triggered accountability years earlier and instead allowed the matter to remain buried.to contact me:bobbcapucci@protonmail.comsource:Epstein survivor accuses palace of cover-up

Women who say they have information about Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor are reportedly reluctant to speak with British police because they do not trust the UK authorities or the British press to treat them properly. Attorney Brad Edwards, who represents many Jeffrey Epstein survivors, told the BBC that multiple clients have information about the former prince but do not want to cooperate with UK investigators, citing two major concerns: the belief that authorities failed to act meaningfully while Epstein was alive, and fear that coming forward would expose them and their families to press harassment. One of Edwards's clients has alleged she was sent to the UK for a sexual encounter with Andrew at Royal Lodge in 2010, making her the second known woman to allege abuse connected to him in Britain after Virginia Giuffre.The situation also raises serious questions about the UK's handling of Epstein-related allegations over the years. Thames Valley Police said it had engaged with the woman's legal team, but her lawyer said she would not communicate with police because of privacy fears. The force has said it could investigate sexual misconduct allegations against Andrew as part of a broader inquiry into alleged misconduct in public office, reportedly linked to claims that he passed sensitive information to Epstein while serving as a UK trade envoy. Attorney Sigrid McCawley, who represented Virginia Giuffre, also told the BBC she did not believe she had received communication from the Metropolitan Police since the DOJ released Epstein files in January, despite representing survivors who may have been trafficked to the UK. Andrew has denied wrongdoing in the past, settled Giuffre's civil case in 2022 without admitting liability, and has not been charged in connection with these allegations.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Epstein survivors lack faith in UK police investigating Andrew, says lawyer

Police investigating Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor are reportedly seeking the Metropolitan Police files connected to Virginia Giuffre as part of a widening inquiry into alleged sexual misconduct, fraud, corruption, and misconduct in public office. The focus is not only on Giuffre's long-standing allegations that Andrew sexually abused her when she was 17 after she was trafficked by Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell — claims Andrew has denied — but also on what British authorities knew, what they previously reviewed, and whether earlier decisions by the Met left key material untouched. Giuffre gave a statement to the Met in 2015, later sued Andrew in the United States, and reached a multimillion-pound civil settlement with him in 2022 without any admission of liability. Now, after her death in 2025, investigators are reportedly looking back at those files to determine whether there is evidence that should feed into the current probe.The investigation also appears to be examining Andrew's wider conduct around Epstein, including claims that he used or attempted to use official channels, taxpayer-funded protection officers, or confidential information to protect himself or discredit Giuffre. One major thread involves allegations that Andrew passed Giuffre's personal information to a police protection officer in 2011 while trying to dig up damaging material on her shortly before the infamous photograph of Andrew, Giuffre, and Maxwell became public. The Met previously said it found no basis for further action on that issue, but Thames Valley Police are now reportedly reviewing the broader record, including past police handling, Andrew's former royal protection detail, and evidence emerging from Epstein-related document releases. The significance is obvious: this is no longer just about Andrew's old denials or the civil settlement — it is about whether British law enforcement failed to fully confront the Epstein connection when it mattered most.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Police probing Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor over 'sex offences' will 'seek late accuser Virginia Giuffre's files' | Daily Mail Online

Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor is now facing a broadened police inquiry in Britain that goes beyond the original misconduct-in-public-office allegation tied to his former role as a UK trade envoy. Thames Valley Police are reportedly examining possible sexual misconduct, corruption, fraud, dishonesty, abuse of power, and dereliction of duty as part of a widening investigation connected to his long relationship with Jeffrey Epstein. Police have already arrested and questioned Andrew, searched properties linked to him, and appealed for witnesses as they try to determine whether his position as a public representative was misused. The investigation was originally prompted by material from the U.S. Epstein files suggesting Andrew may have shared confidential trade information with Epstein while holding a government-backed role, but detectives are now also looking at whether any alleged misconduct involved sexual exploitation or abuse of public office.A major new strand involves police engagement with lawyers for a woman who alleges she was taken to Andrew's Windsor home in 2010 “for sexual purposes.” Authorities have not said that a formal criminal complaint has been filed on that specific claim, and Andrew strongly denies wrongdoing, but the fact that investigators are actively appealing for witnesses shows the probe is expanding rather than narrowing. The case is especially significant because it connects several previously separate Andrew controversies into one possible investigative framework: Epstein, royal access, trade envoy privilege, alleged misuse of power, and claims involving women brought into elite settings. No charges have been announced, and police are stressing that the inquiry will take time, but this marks one of the most serious legal developments Andrew has faced because it places his Epstein-era conduct directly inside an active British criminal investigation.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Police probe Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor over 'sex offences': Stunning update on investigation of former prince as officers appeal for potential 'victim survivors' to come forward | Daily Mail Online

Welcome back to Pod Save the King! After a brief hiatus, we're back with a bumper episode packed with royal news and exclusive insights. In this episode, we cover:
Surrey Police have opened a criminal investigation into two separate allegations of non-recent child sexual abuse linked to Jeffrey Epstein after women came forward following the release of Epstein-related files by the U.S. Department of Justice in December 2025. The claims date back to the mid-to-late 1980s and from the mid-1990s to 2000, with alleged locations including west Surrey and Berkshire, with the Berkshire allegations understood to relate to the Windsor estate. Surrey Police had previously appealed for witnesses after becoming aware of a redacted report alleging trafficking and sexual assaults involving a minor in Virginia Water between 1994 and 1996. That appeal reportedly prompted several people to come forward, and the force has now moved from review mode into a full investigation handled by child abuse specialists in its public protection team.The investigation is significant because it marks the first British police inquiry into Epstein-related allegations focused on alleged harm against females, rather than only the political or official-conduct questions surrounding Epstein's UK connections. No arrests have been made and no potential suspects have yet been interviewed, but the development places Surrey alongside Thames Valley Police and the Metropolitan Police as part of a widening UK response to Epstein-linked allegations. Multiple forces are also examining whether Epstein-related flights, estates, and official contacts intersected with possible trafficking or abuse in Britain, while UK investigators continue facing the problem of limited access to unredacted U.S. records. The larger picture is that Epstein's British footprint is no longer just a matter of scandal, association, or royal embarrassment; it is increasingly becoming a live criminal-investigative question about what happened on UK soil, who knew, and why it took decades for these allegations to receive this level of attention.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Surrey police launch investigation into UK Epstein abuse allegations | Jeffrey Epstein | The Guardian

Surrey Police have opened a criminal investigation into two separate allegations of non-recent child sexual abuse linked to Jeffrey Epstein after women came forward following the release of Epstein-related files by the U.S. Department of Justice in December 2025. The claims date back to the mid-to-late 1980s and from the mid-1990s to 2000, with alleged locations including west Surrey and Berkshire, with the Berkshire allegations understood to relate to the Windsor estate. Surrey Police had previously appealed for witnesses after becoming aware of a redacted report alleging trafficking and sexual assaults involving a minor in Virginia Water between 1994 and 1996. That appeal reportedly prompted several people to come forward, and the force has now moved from review mode into a full investigation handled by child abuse specialists in its public protection team.The investigation is significant because it marks the first British police inquiry into Epstein-related allegations focused on alleged harm against females, rather than only the political or official-conduct questions surrounding Epstein's UK connections. No arrests have been made and no potential suspects have yet been interviewed, but the development places Surrey alongside Thames Valley Police and the Metropolitan Police as part of a widening UK response to Epstein-linked allegations. Multiple forces are also examining whether Epstein-related flights, estates, and official contacts intersected with possible trafficking or abuse in Britain, while UK investigators continue facing the problem of limited access to unredacted U.S. records. The larger picture is that Epstein's British footprint is no longer just a matter of scandal, association, or royal embarrassment; it is increasingly becoming a live criminal-investigative question about what happened on UK soil, who knew, and why it took decades for these allegations to receive this level of attention.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Surrey police launch investigation into UK Epstein abuse allegations | Jeffrey Epstein | The GuardianBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

It's Friday, February 20th, A.D. 2026. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 140 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com. I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Adam McManus 100 U.S. troops on the ground in Northeast Nigeria U.S. officials confirmed that roughly 100 U.S. troops arrived in Nigeria on Monday, tasked with a mission to train and equip Nigerian anti-terror forces in their ongoing struggle against the country's rising Islamic terrorist threat, reports International Christian Concern. About 200 troops are expected to be deployed in the coming weeks. Nigeria has witnessed an uptick in religious-based violence in the central and north by the Islamic Boko Haram terrorist group against Christians. The U.S. soldiers were sent to Bauchi State located in northeastern Nigeria at the invitation of the Nigerian government. British police arrested Prince Andrew Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, the man formerly known as Prince Andrew before his royal title was stripped from him, was arrested on suspicion of misconduct in a public office at around 8:00am on his 66th birthday yesterday, reports The U.S. Sun. Andrew allegedly shared sensitive information with his pedophile pal Jeffrey Epstein while serving as the United Kingdom's trade envoy. He spent time in Vietnam, Singapore, China, and Hong Kong in October 2010 on taxpayer-funded official business and high-level trade talks. An email to Epstein on November 30, 2010, sent by Andrew's “Special Adviser” Amit Patel, contained four documents reporting on what had been discussed on his trip. The email and its four attachments were sent to Andrew at 4.57pm, and forwarded to multi- millionaire Jeffrey Epstein five minutes later, at 5.02pm. Cops also confirmed at the time that they were separately probing allegations that a woman was trafficked to the UK by Epstein to have a sexual encounter with Prince Andrew. Yesterday, police raided royal residences in Windsor and Norfolk. Andrew's brother, King Charles III, age 77, said, “I have learned with the deepest concern the news about Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor and suspicion of misconduct in public office. What now follows is the full, fair, and proper process by which this issue is investigated in the appropriate manner and by the appropriate authorities. They have our full and wholehearted support and co-operation.” Andrew's arrest comes almost a year after Virginia Giuffre, a woman who accused him of sexually assaulting her while she was a minor, committed suicide last April. Virginia's emotional brothers Sky and Daniel said: “At last, today, our broken hearts have been lifted at the news that no one is above the law, not even royalty. On behalf of our sister, Virginia Giuffre, we extend our gratitude to the UK's Thames Valley Police for their investigation, and the arrest of Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor. For survivors everywhere, Virginia did this for you.” Galatians 6:7 says, “Do not be deceived: God cannot be mocked. A man reaps what he sows.” Black D.C. grandma about Trump: “I love him!” Back in 2017, Forlesia Cook's grandson was murdered in cold blood in Washington D.C. Yesterday, at the Black History Month Reception at the White House, she spoke glowingly about President Donald Trump's concern about her family and his willingness to send in the National Guard to D.C. to put the criminals behind bars, reports FoxNews.com. Listen. COOK: “One thing I like about him, he keeps it real, just like Grandma. I appreciate that because I can trust Him, because he tells exactly how he feel and what he think. Thank God for this President. (applause) “I am filled. My cup runneth over because he allowed his people to come to my house to interview me, to talk about the murder of my grandson. It seemed like nobody cared. I marched. I rallied. I pulled out other families in the District of Columbia that had murders and did not have answers. Ooh! We marched and we rallied. And nobody heard me, Democrats, until this Republican sent his people out there to interview me in my home. Have you ever heard of a thing? “Then they invited me twice before Congress to testify for the Beautiful Bill that's going to change crime in the District. (applause) If you kill somebody, okay, you take a life, you do life. Just that simple. (applause) If you do a harsh crime, you do harsh time. Just that simple. “And then we need National Guard, and which we did years ago, he brought it on. “I love him. I don't want to hear nothing you got to say about that racist stuff. And don't be looking at me on the news hatin' on me because I'm standing up for somebody that deserves to be standin' up for. Get off the man's back. Let him do his job. He's doing the right thing. Back up off of me. And Grandma said it.” (applause) Cook cited Psalm 23:5 in her remarks. The full verse says, “Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies; Thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over.” President Trump was clearly touched by Forlesia Cook's passion and gratitude. TRUMP: “Thank you, darling. That's great, and it's from the heart. Your little baby was just so horribly taken from you. “Under the Trump administration, we believe that no community should be abandoned to the scourge of violent crime. We're saving 1000s and 1000s of lives in many cities. And frankly, if these radical left lunatic Democrats would come and say, ‘Please help us. Please,' we'd stop crimes all over the place. “Every town that we go in, every city that we go in, like Washington, Felicia, you feel much safer now, totally safe. You can walk to a restaurant. The restaurants were all closing. Now, the bad news is you can't get into a restaurant. It's a great thing to see what's happening in Washington.” American abolitionist and former slave Frederick Douglass remembered And finally, 131 years ago today, on February 20, 1895, American abolitionist Frederick Douglass met his maker. He was the most important leader of the American movement for black civil rights in the 19th century. After escaping from slavery in Maryland in 1838, Douglass became a national leader of the abolitionist movement in Massachusetts and New York. He gained fame for his oratory and incisive antislavery writings. Accordingly, he was described by abolitionists, in his time, as a living counterexample to claims by supporters of slavery that enslaved people lacked the intellectual capacity to function as independent American citizens. Indeed, Northerners, at the time, found it hard to believe that such a great orator had once been enslaved. It was in response to this disbelief that Douglass wrote Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglas: An American Slave in 1845. It was influential in promoting the cause of abolition, as was his second book, written in 1855, entitled My Bondage and My Freedom. Following the Civil War, Douglass was an active campaigner for the rights of freed slaves and wrote his last autobiography entitled Life and Times of Frederick Douglass.

Former Prince Andrew, now Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, was arrested on February 19, 2026 — his 66th birthday — by British police on suspicion of misconduct in public office after authorities began investigating allegations linked to his conduct during his time as a UK trade envoy. Thames Valley Police confirmed they arrested a man in his sixties in Norfolk on those suspicions and were carrying out searches at properties in both Norfolk and Berkshire; under UK procedure the arrested person was not immediately named but the reporting makes clear it was Mountbatten-Windsor. The inquiry stems from documents in the recently released Epstein files suggesting he may have shared confidential government information with convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, and he remains in custody while the investigation continues.The arrest represents a historic moment as the first senior British royal to be taken into custody in modern times and follows years of public scrutiny over his association with Epstein and prior civil litigation, including a high-profile settlement with accuser Virginia Giuffre. King Charles III responded to the news by affirming that “the law must take its course,” emphasizing cooperation with police, while Giuffre's family welcomed the development as a sign that no one is above the law. The exact legal outcome — whether formal charges will be filed — remains to be seen as the investigation unfolds.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:UK police arrest Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor for misconduct in public office | AP News
Former Prince Andrew was arrested on February 19, 2026, by Thames Valley Police in Britain on suspicion of misconduct in public office linked to his long-criticized relationship with convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. The arrest — historic because he's the first senior British royal in centuries to be detained — came after the U.S. Department of Justice released thousands of pages of “Epstein files” that include emails suggesting Andrew may have shared confidential British trade-related information with Epstein while serving as a U.K. trade envoy. Police questioned him for nearly 11–12 hours, searched his properties on both Sandringham and Windsor estates, and then released him under investigation; he has not been charged or cleared. Authorities are also assessing broader evidence tied to Epstein's network and have reached out to former protection officers for any relevant information.Looking ahead, the investigation will continue with the Crown Prosecution Service deciding whether there's enough evidence and public interest to bring formal charges. Legal experts note that proving misconduct in public office — a common-law offense — is challenging, and Andrew could face serious consequences if convicted. Meanwhile, the case has ignited political and public debate in the U.K., including calls from lawmakers for independent inquiries into the monarchy's handling of Epstein-related ties and criticism of past investigations into alleged sexual abuse claims. King Charles III has publicly stated that “the law must take its course,” and the ongoing scrutiny is raising broader questions about accountability for powerful figures.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Possible next steps after the arrest of former Prince AndrewBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.
President Trump ordered government agencies to release information about extraterrestrial life and related phenomena on Thursday. The move followed former President Barack Obama's comments on alien life in a podcast interview earlier this week. In 2023, the White House acknowledged that there had been unexplained aerial phenomena reported by pilots and the Navy and Air Force.Andrew Mountbatten-Window was released from police custody on Thursday evening, after being arrested on suspicion of misconduct in public office, over allegations he sent confidential government documents to Jeffrey Epstein. The former prince had been questioned all day by detectives from the Thames Valley Police. King Charles III, who appeared at a fashion show in London just hours after his brother's arrest, said in a statement that "the law must take its course."Alysa Liu has won gold in women's figure skating. She becomes the first American woman to claim the Olympic title in the event since 2002. The 20-year-old from the San Francisco Bay Area scored a career-high 226.79 points to finish ahead of Japan's Kaori Sakamoto and Ami Nakai. Liu briefly retired after the 2022 Beijing Games, citing burnout. Liu called her return to the Olympic stage a personal victory, saying she wanted simply to be present and compete.
Today's top stories, with context, in just 15 minutes.On today's podcast:1) The US military is stationing a vast array of forces in the Middle East, including two aircraft carriers, fighter jets and refueling tankers, with President Trump saying that Iran had 10 to 15 days at most to strike a deal over its nuclear program. “We’re either going to get a deal, or it’s going to be unfortunate for them,” Trump told reporters Thursday aboard Air Force One. On a deadline, Trump said he thought 10 to 15 days was “pretty much” the “maximum” he would allow for negotiations to continue. The deployment is unlike anything the US has done since 2003, when it amassed forces before the invasion of Iraq. It dwarfs the military buildup that Trump ordered off the coast of Venezuela in the weeks before he ousted President Nicolas Maduro. While the US isn’t likely to deploy ground troops, the buildup suggests Trump is giving himself discretion to launch a sustained campaign lasting many days, in cooperation with Israel.2) President Trump declared victory in the fight over cost-of-living concerns, signaling a new approach that seeks to deny problems with his economic agenda while touting stock market gains to insist that his tariff plans have been a success. Pocketbook issues have emerged as the central focus of the upcoming November congressional elections with households hit hard by costs for groceries, utilities and housing. Polls show voters have soured on Trump’s economic policies, endangering Republicans’ hold on both chambers of Congress and the future of the president’s legislative agenda. Trump and allies have highlighted slowing inflation and job growth that has come in above expectations, but that has failed to assuage voters, and opened the door for Democrats who have seized on that discontent to boost their midterm prospects.3) Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, the brother of the UK’s King Charles, was released under investigation on Thursday after being arrested on suspicion of misconduct in public office. The Thames Valley Police confirmed it had released a Norfolk man in his sixties, without mentioning the former royal by name. Last week, the police force said it was leading the assessment of allegations tied to the US Department of Justice’s publication of files related to convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. King Charles III issued a statement outlining his “deepest concern” about the matter and promising Buckingham Palace’s “full and wholehearted support and co-operation” with the investigating authorities. The arrest of Andrew, who turned 66 on Thursday, heaps further embarrassment on Britain’s royal family following years of lurid allegations about ties with Epstein that the former prince has consistently denied. His arrest appears to be the first of a UK royal since King Charles I in the 17th century following his defeat in the English Civil War.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Police in the UK now have Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, formerly known as Prince Andrew, in custody. The younger brother of King Charles III was arrested today. Thames Valley Police say he was taken in on suspicion of misconduct in public office and they are searching his addresses. Andrew appeared in the Epstein files in both emails and disturbing pictures, though his arrest appears to have more to do with allegedly divulging British trade secrets than assault. Pulitzer Prize winning investigative journalist and author David Cay Johnston makes a special appearance to discuss the wide ranging legal implications. Tensions between the U.S. and Iran are rising fast as Donald Trump signals a more aggressive posture that critics warn could push the region toward conflict. From military positioning and political rhetoric to the broader geopolitical stakes…Is America being drawn toward another Middle East confrontation? Is this strategic pressure, political messaging, or the early stages of a dangerous escalation? In the second hour, we welcome former federal prosecutor, now defense attorney, David Katz to talk about everything from the Supreme Court grappling with issues of presidential powers to golfers suing Trump over a golf course takeover.

Historic scenes in Sandringham, as Andrew Mountbatten Windsor is arrested on suspicion of misconduct in public office. Our royal experts talk through what we know, and what this means for the royal family.Plain-clothed police officers were seen arriving at the royal property, before Thames Valley Police confirmed the news of an arrest.Shortly afterwards, King Charles III released an unprecedented statement expressing his 'deepest concern' over the news of his brother's arrest. The monarch added that “nobody is above the law”. It comes just weeks after more than 3 million files relating to Jeffrey Epstein were released by the US Department of Justice.So what next for the royal family? What exactly is going on behind palace doors? And should the royal family have acted earlier?
Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor has been arrested on suspicion of misconduct in public office in what may be one of the most extraordinary moments in modern royal history. Police vehicles were seen at Wood Farm on the Sandringham estate as Thames Valley Police confirmed the arrest of a man in his 60s from Norfolk, with searches under way in Berkshire and Norfolk. BBC News reports Andrew remains in custody.The arrest follows renewed scrutiny over millions of documents linked to Jeffrey Epstein and focuses on allegations that confidential, potentially market-sensitive government information may have been shared during Andrew's tenure as the UK's trade envoy between 2001 and 2011. He has consistently denied wrongdoing, and no charges have been brought.With the National Crime Agency now involved and commentators noting the unprecedented optics of the King's brother in police custody, constitutional questions are resurfacing. The charge of misconduct in public office carries a maximum sentence of life imprisonment, though an arrest is not evidence of guilt. As Prime Minister Keir Starmer says “nobody is above the law,” the monarchy faces one of its most serious crises in decades.Get episodes of Palace Intrigue by becommming a paid subscriber on Apple Podcasts.

»Som led i vores efterforskning har vi anholdt en mand i 60’erne fra Norfolk mistænkt for embedsmisbrug.« Da den knastørre sætning fra Thames Valley Police ramte den britiske offentlighed torsdag, var det engelske kongehus officielt i frit fald. For manden i 60'erne, der var anholdt, var Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, tidligere kendt som Prins Andrew. Den engelske konge Charles' lillebror. Og nu altså hentet i en politibil og kørt væk som en simpel forbryder. Andrew Mountbatten-Windsors nedtur begyndte, da prinsen blev en del af skandalen omkring den dømte seksualforbryder Jeffrey Epstein, der nu har kostet ham hans titel og hans frihed. Men hvem er Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, og hvordan endte han på bagsædet af en politibil? Det spørger vi i dagens 'Du lytter til Politiken' journalist og forfatter Lone Theils om.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Calls for former Prince Andrew—now Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor—to face a formal inquiry and cooperate with ongoing investigations have intensified across the UK amid fresh revelations tied to his relationship with convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. Recently released documents from the U.S. Department of Justice have shown extensive correspondence between Andrew and Epstein from when Andrew served as the UK's trade envoy, prompting critics to argue that these communications raise serious questions about potential misconduct, including sharing sensitive information while in public office. The Director of Public Prosecutions stressed that “nobody is above the law,” and Thames Valley Police, along with other forces, is now assessing allegations of misconduct in public office, adding to demands from figures such as former Prime Minister Gordon Brown and ex-Business Secretary Vince Cable for a full police probe and parliamentary scrutiny of how Andrew's actions were handled. Anti-monarchy campaign groups have also staged protests calling for an inquiry that would extend to what senior royals knew about his links with Epstein.Alongside these UK pressures, there are domestic demands from MPs and public commentators that Andrew should be compelled to answer questions about his knowledge of Epstein's network and associated abuses, with calls for him to appear before both British authorities and, in some cases, US lawmakers. The combination of leaked files, growing media scrutiny, and vocal pressure from politicians and advocacy groups has kept the controversy in the spotlight, fuelling debate about accountability, transparency, and the role of UK institutions—including the monarchy—in addressing allegations linked to one of the most enduring scandals involving a member of the royal family.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Police under renewed pressure to investigate Andrew over Epstein ties after intervention from former minister | The Independent

British police, specifically Thames Valley Police, are currently assessing a complaint alleging that Prince Andrew, now Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, may have shared confidential government and trade information with the late convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. The inquiry was triggered by newly released U.S. Department of Justice documents showing email exchanges from 2010, while Andrew was serving as a UK trade envoy, in which he appears to have forwarded official reports on trade missions — including sensitive commercial and investment data — to Epstein shortly after receiving them. These actions have prompted a complaint from anti-monarchy campaigners alleging misconduct in public office and potential breaches of Britain's Official Secrets Act. Thames Valley Police have confirmed they are “assessing the information in line with our established procedures” and have held discussions with the Crown Prosecution Service to decide whether the case should advance into a full criminal investigation. Meanwhile, Buckingham Palace has stated that King Charles III and the royal family will support and cooperate with any legitimate police inquiry into the matter, and senior royals including Prince William and Princess Catherine have expressed deep concern over the ongoing revelations.The scope of the police inquiry extends beyond the alleged transmission of confidential trade reports: reports suggest authorities are also examining broader aspects of Andrew's relationship with Epstein, including claims regarding how that relationship persisted after Epstein's 2008 conviction. The inquiry remains in its early phases, with no formal charges filed yet, but the involvement of prosecutors and senior investigators underscores its seriousness. Andrew, who was stripped of his royal titles and duties in 2025 amid longstanding criticism over his ties to Epstein, denies wrongdoing, and the police have not committed to a timeline for a decision on whether to launch a formal investigation. The developments have intensified public scrutiny of both the former royal's conduct and the wider implications of the Epstein files for British public figures.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Andrew probed by criminal prosecutors over Epstein scandal as police issue major update after latest file bombshell

Princess Eugenie made her first public appearance since the latest Epstein document dump, popping up at a high end art fair in Doha with friend Caroline Daur, who posted a photo and wrote it had “been too long.” Back in Britain, Thames Valley Police confirmed it is reviewing a complaint from Republic and also assessing a separate allegation that Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor assaulted a woman trafficked by Epstein at Royal Lodge, claims Andrew denies. New emails in the files suggest Epstein's circle worried about what Sarah Ferguson's longtime aide Johnny O'Sullivan might reveal, as Andrew Lownie warns that if charges ever came, Andrew could bolt to a non extradition safe haven. There's also fresh eyebrow raising chatter over Andrew keeping the late Queen's corgis, and a RadarOnline report claiming the renewed scandal is grinding down King Charles as he continues cancer treatment.

Keir Starmer was probably hoping today would be another chance to reset his premiership, following the departure this weekend of Morgan McSweeney, his chief of staff.Instead he's been hit first by the departure of Tim Allan, his director of communications, and then by Anas Sarwar, the leader of Labour in Scotland, who became the most senior figure from his party to urge the PM to resign.Camilla and Tim speak to Lee Cain, former director of communications to Boris Johnson, to find out what it is like to be in Downing Street as a government comes to an end. They also react to the news that Thames Valley Police are assessing claims Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor forwarded sensitive information to Jeffrey Epstein while he was trade envoy.We want to hear from you!
