Donald Trump Is Terribly Sad About Disgraced Prince Andrew's Exile

When asked about Prince Andrew’s exile from royal life and the Epstein scandal that forced King Charles to strip his brother of his military titles and patronages, Donald Trump struck a tone of sympathy — not for the victims, but for the Windsors. Speaking aboard Air Force One, Trump said, “I feel very badly. It’s a terrible thing that’s happened to the family. That’s been a tragic situation. It’s too bad. I mean, I feel badly for the family.” In classic Trump fashion, the comments came off as tone-deaf, framing the ordeal as a misfortune that befell the royals rather than a reckoning for Andrew’s own actions or associations. He offered no mention of Virginia Giuffre, the survivors, or the broader scandal surrounding Epstein’s network — only sorrow for the House of Windsor’s discomfort. The remarks were quickly criticized as another example of Trump’s tendency to sympathize with power over accountability. Rather than condemning Andrew’s behavior or the pattern of privilege that shielded him for years, Trump painted the royals as victims of circumstance — as if Andrew had simply stumbled into bad luck rather than disgrace of his own making. His comments echoed the same populist-elite paradox that defines his persona: railing against “the establishment” while showing deference to its crowned members when they fall. For many observers, the takeaway was clear — once again, Trump’s empathy seemed to extend only upward, toward the powerful, not toward the people whose lives were destroyed by Epstein and the system that protected him. to contact me: bobbycapucci@protonmail.com source: Trump says he feels 'badly' for royal family over Andrew-Epstein scandal [https://www.nbcnews.com/world/united-kingdom/trump-feels-badly-royal-family-prince-andrew-epstein-king-charles-rcna241530]

Rumors Of A Relationship Between Prince Andrew And Ghislaine Maxwell Are Reignited

The persistent rumors of a romantic relationship between Ghislaine Maxwell and Prince Andrew have been reignited by the forthcoming book The Rise and Fall of the House of York by royal biographer Andrew Lownie. In the book, Lownie presents testimony from insiders and former friends of the Duke of York who claim Maxwell and Andrew shared more than just a social friendship. According to the book, the two were romantically involved, with some sources describing them as “an item” during the 1990s. Maxwell, Lownie writes, was obsessed with status and saw Andrew as both a romantic target and a royal stepping stone. Their relationship, according to these accounts, was well known among those in their inner circles—casting doubt on the prince’s repeated insistence that he barely knew her. These claims put Prince Andrew’s public denials under fresh scrutiny and deepen the sense that he was far more involved with the Epstein-Maxwell operation than he’s admitted. If Maxwell and Andrew were romantically entangled, it suggests that he wasn’t just a royal caught in the wrong company—but a man emotionally and personally tied to Epstein’s chief accomplice. This complicates his attempts to distance himself from the scandal, particularly in light of the settlement he paid to Virginia Giuffre. Lownie’s revelations don’t just challenge the official narrative—they threaten to obliterate it, exposing the possibility that the prince’s entanglement with Maxwell was neither incidental nor peripheral, but intimate, calculated, and deeply compromising. to contact me: bobbycapucci@protonmail.com source: Prince Andrew Had 'Affair' With Ghislaine Maxwell: Book - Newsweek [https://www.newsweek.com/prince-andrew-affair-ghislaine-maxwell-jeffrey-epstein-book-2108334]

Howard Lutnick And The Transcript From His Epstein Related Congressional Hearing (Part 8) (5/16/26)

The transcripts from Howard Lutnick’s closed-door appearance before Congress painted a picture of a witness trying to minimize both the depth and duration of his relationship with Jeffrey Epstein while lawmakers confronted him with records suggesting far more contact than he had previously acknowledged. Lutnick repeatedly described his interactions with Epstein as “inconsequential,” insisting he only met with him a handful of times and claiming he cut ties after a disturbing 2005 interaction inside Epstein’s Manhattan townhouse. According to the testimony, Lutnick said Epstein made sexually suggestive comments about massages during that visit, which he claimed immediately disgusted both him and his wife. However, members of the House Oversight Committee confronted him with emails, schedules, and business records showing contact continuing years after Epstein’s 2008 conviction, including meetings at Epstein’s townhouse, discussions involving a shared business venture, and a 2012 lunch visit to Epstein’s private island alongside Lutnick’s family The transcripts also showed lawmakers growing increasingly frustrated with what they viewed as evasive answers and shifting explanations from Lutnick as more documentation was placed in front of him. Democrats in particular accused him of misleading the public for years about the true extent of the relationship, especially after previously portraying Epstein as little more than a casual acquaintance. Lutnick attempted to explain away the continued contact by claiming the encounters were brief, social, or business-related and that he never witnessed any criminal behavior or saw underage girls around Epstein. He also reportedly walked back previous public comments suggesting Epstein blackmailed powerful people, telling lawmakers he had only been speculating and had no firsthand knowledge of such activity. Republicans on the committee largely defended Lutnick and argued Democrats were trying to weaponize the hearing politically, while critics argued the testimony further demonstrated how many powerful figures continued associating with Epstein long after his criminal conduct was already publicly known. to contact me: bobbycapucci@protonmail.com source: HGO126550 Lutnick Draft-pdf2_Redacted-Update_RedactedV3.pdf [https://assets.newsweek.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/Lutnick-Transcript.pdf]
