The death of Virginia Giuffre will leave questions that are now likely to remain unanswered. Her name will always be associated with the scandals and criminality surrounding the late billionaire sex offender Jeffrey Epstein and his circle - with Ms Giuffre one of the most prominent among his accusers, revealing the trafficking and sexual exploitation of young women. The photo of her and Prince Andrew, taken in London in 2001, became emblematic of the royal's entanglement with Epstein and was central to his disastrous Newsnight interview in 2019. The origins of the picture remain uncertain. But Ms Giuffre's death adds...

Newly-declassified memos written by disgraced FBI official Andrew McCabe shine new light on how he kept the Trump-Russia collusion hoax investigation alive during a critical period in the first half of 2017 before he got it handed off to a special counsel. The eight memos penned by McCabe, most of which had never been released until earlier this month, span his discussions and meetings (including with President Donald Trump) held from January 24, 2017 to May 21, 2017 — a critical time period ranging from just before the FBI sprung an interview on retired Lt. Gen. Mike Flynn to just...

Ghislaine Maxwell’s former London townhouse, where the United Kingdom’s Prince Andrew allegedly posed with his arm around the waist of an underage Jeffrey Epstein accuser in 2001, is up for sale again. Maxwell, 63, sold it in 2021 for the equivalent of roughly $2.1 million to help pay for her defense in a US sex trafficking trial, in which she was convicted for her role in assisting Epstein’s crimes. The three-bedroom, three-story home is now listed for the equivalent of roughly $3.96 million, according to the London real estate site Chestertons. Photos show a freshly revamped kitchen, wooden lattice over...

Trump-hating Former FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe accidentally endorsed Kash Patel for FBI Director in a CNN appearance Saturday night, saying his nomination is “terrible” for those who are currently at the Bureau. .... Snip.... President Trump announced Patel’s nomination Saturday evening in a Truth Social post, saying, “This FBI will end the growing crime epidemic in America, dismantle the migrant criminal gangs, and stop the evil scourge of human and drug trafficking across the Border.” In his leftist media rant aimed at discrediting Patel, McCabe said the nomination "can only possibly be a plan to disrupt, to dismantle, to...

The Jeffrey Epstein list of associates unsealed by a US judge has reignited suspicions the pedophile financier was an asset for Mossad, the Israeli intelligence agency. Israel's former prime minister Ehud Barak was identified in the bombshell dossiers Wednesday night. He served as PM from 1991 to 2001 after serving in the IDF for 35 years, rising to Chief of the General Staff. While he is mentioned only fleetingly in the new files - an Epstein victim asked whether she'd ever given Barak a massage - there has long been speculation surrounding his relationship with the financier. Barak met with...

New evidence from one of Prince Andrew's accusers is due to be presented in a US court this week. The legal documents relate to Johanna Sjoberg and could reveal more details of her alleged encounter with the royal. Ms Sjoberg has previously claimed the King's brother put his hand on her breast at the Manhattan home of multi-millionaire paedophile Jeffrey Epstein in 2001. She alleged this happened during an incident in which a latex Spitting Image puppet of the Duke of York – a present from Epstein's then-lover Ghislaine Maxwell – was used to touch the breast of Virginia Roberts....

The Crown season 6 will be tackling Prince Andrew’s friendship with Jeffrey Epstein by completely ignoring it. The final instalment of the juggernaut Netflix series, which has gripped viewers since 2016, will concentrate on the British monarchy in the 1990s and will see James Murray reprise his role from season 5 as the royal. While plot details are being kept under wraps, it is expected the long-running drama will depict Princess Diana’s death and King Charles and Queen Camilla’s wedding, as well as paying tribute to the late Queen. But The Crown will not include Andrew’s 12-year friendship with vile...

Prince Andrew has reportedly been complaining to friends that has been left none of Queen Elizabeth's reported £650million fortune, with King Charles now fully in control of the royal purse strings. Sole inheritor Charles is not required to pay any tax on the money and has so far avoided handing any out to his younger sibling. .....

Prince Andrew's sex abuse accuser Virginia Giuffre could return to the public eye next month as her gagging clause is lifted. Ms Giuffre, who now lives in Australia, had alleged that she was forced to have sex with the Duke three times when she was 17 under the orders of the late paedophile Jeffrey Epstein. She launched her legal action against Andrew in August 2021, seeking unspecified damages for battery, including rape, and the infliction of emotional distress. It was settled outside of court on February 15, 2022, for a reported £12 million, with £2 million thought to have been...

“Three Saints of Advent: St. Andrew, Apostle” (John 1:35-42a; Matthew 4:18-20) When churches have midweek Advent or Lenten services, usually the pastor tries to come up with a theme that will tie the services together. This year, in looking at the calendar for Advent, I noticed something about the dates for our midweek services. The first three Wednesdays are November 30, December 7, and December 14. Which got me to thinking: November 30 is the Feast of St. Andrew, Apostle. December 7 is the Commemoration of St. Ambrose, Bishop of Milan and one of the great Church Fathers. December 14...

PRINCE Andrew will be nothing more than the Royal dog walker in chief under King Charles III as the disgraced Duke faces being nearly totally frozen out of the family, experts have said. Royal observers believe shamed Andrew - often dubbed The Queen's favourite - faces very little meaningful future in The Firm despite his well reported ambition to return to frontline duties. Andrew is attempting to rehab his image as he dreams of making a comeback after humiliatingly settling out of court with sex accuser Virginia Giuffre. It was the latest in a lengthy string of embarrassments which were...

Prince Charles is set to foot a part of the bill for Prince Andrew's sexual abuse lawsuit, according to reports. The Prince of Wales will reportedly loan the Duke of York up to £7million, which will not include public money, after the royal agreed to pay a huge sum to his accuser Virginia Roberts to settle the case before it reached a jury. Ms Roberts had alleged she was forced to have sex with the duke three times when she was 17 under the orders of the late paedophile Jeffrey Epstein. In January, she was given the go-ahead to sue...

And just last week ol' Randy Andy was demanding a jury trial in the USA. Hmmmm....

Virginia Roberts claims to have lost the original print of the famous photo of her and Prince Andrew, which could further the disgraced royal's argument that the image was doctored. 'The picture is not in Virginia’s possession,' a source close to Roberts - who now goes by her married name of Giuffre - told the Daily Beast. It was taken by convicted pedophile Jeffrey Epstein, with his friend - recently-convicted pedophile Ghislaine Maxwell, visible right behind them. Another insider said they weren't even sure if the original of print of the picture 'still existed.' It was in one of a...

Lawyers for Prince Andrew have written to a US judge to demand a jury trial in a civil lawsuit brought by a woman who has accused him of sexual assault. Virginia Giuffre, 38, alleges that he sexually assaulted her when she was a teenager at the homes of Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell. The Duke of York has consistently denied all the allegations against him. A US lawyer called the latest legal filings a "PR move", saying Ms Giuffre had already asked for a jury trial. Lisa Bloom, who represents a number of Maxwell's and Epstein's accusers, said Prince Andrew's...

Prince Andrew was today stripped of his military titles and royal patronages by the Queen, who said he will have to face his sexual assault lawsuit as a 'private citizen'. The Duke of York will no longer be allowed to use the styling 'HRH' in any capacity, signalling the royal family's attempt to distance itself from the ninth in line to the throne as he faces a humiliating trial in the US. The move to shred his ties with the military is likely to be particularly painful for Andrew, a military veteran who served as a helicopter pilot for the...

Hours before he was scheduled to retire in 2018, Andrew G. McCabe, then the F.B.I.’s deputy director, was fired by the Justice Department, depriving him of his pension and prompting cheers from President Donald J. Trump, who had been hounding him over his role in the Russia investigation. On Thursday, the department reversed Mr. McCabe’s firing, settling a lawsuit he filed asserting that he was dismissed for political reasons. Under the settlement, Mr. McCabe, 53, will be able to officially retire, receive his pension and other benefits, and get about $200,000 in missed pension payments. In addition, the department agreed...

This isn’t a hard and fast rule. There are exceptions. But if you look around, for the most part, you’ll find that the scions of the successful are almost always bad news—nothing like their self-made parents. In fact, many of these scions are straight-up sociopaths—which brings me to the Cuomo brothers, Andrew and Fredo. Andrew and Fredo are the sons of the late Mario Cuomo, who epitomized what it means to be a self-made man in America. Born in 1932 to a family of grocers, Mario attended public schools, enjoyed a brief professional baseball career, attended college and then law...

One of Jeffrey Epstein’s most prominent accusers has filed a federal lawsuit against the U.K.’s Prince Andrew alleging that he sexually abused her when she was 17 years old. The lawsuit by Virginia Giuffre accuses Andrew of sexually abusing her on separate occasions – in London, New York and on Epstein’s private island in the U.S. Virgin Islands – about 20 years ago when she was under the age of 18. The suit says Epstein and his longtime associate Ghislaine Maxwell compelled Giuffre to engage in sexual acts with Andrew, and that he knew she was a sex-trafficking victim. “Twenty...
