She did it well inside the narrow confines of the monarchy.

She wasn’t embarrassing to have as a head of state. Something a lot of countries including this one can’t say.

If she is not there, I believe it will be part of a deal made that if they want to keep their titles, Meghan is not allowed around. However, if she is there, I believe it likely that it is only for appearance sake and not progress in their relationships that she has sought to destroy.

Many of the UK’s worst evil doers against the US and the world, up until the end, were ensconced in her privy council.

I am glad to finally see a post from a Creeper who has not been entirely propagandists.

But will they be seated in a prominent spot, or second row like the queen placed them at the jubilee service.

Charles is very cozy with the Muslims. Strange that he will also be head of the Church of England.

“She wasn’t embarrassing to have as a head of state.”

Ok, I’ll give you that one. Solid point. And I mostly oppose monarchy as a concept and think it’s childish. But she didn’t cat around like her sister, or make an ass of herself like Charles or Andrew, or William, etc.

So yes, agree.

Now anyone that complains about freezing in a woke police state, in the dark, hungry, with no gasoline will be reminded that they need to all pull together for the martyred queen, and of course... Ukraine.

Probably right, they'll lobby for making zelensky King.

I think if we see them both well seated, we know exactly how they are being received. I really do wonder how her hatred of the family she married into will play out.

I see that that deep cleared sighted intellectual spirit of Lyndon LaRoche is still going strong!

I’m surprised he was allowed anywhere near her or the family today.

Yes, I had hopes his reign could be bypassed.
