Prince Andrew and Virginia Roberts Giuffre have reached a settlement in her sex abuse lawsuit against him — sparing potentially embarrassing details about the embattled royal from ever being made public. The sum of the settlement will not be publicly disclosed, according to papers filed Tuesday in Manhattan federal court. But a source told The Post estimated total is $12 million. Giuffre and Prince Andrew will file a stipulation to dismiss the case within the next month, according to the court papers, which were filed jointly by both parties. In an unsigned letter submitted as an attachment to the settlement...

The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) accidentally revealed more than 2,000 flight records connected to convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein’s private jets, over 700 of which were previously unknown, according to Insider.Insider filed a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) in January 2020 asking the FAA to disclose the agency’s data linked to Jeffrey Epstein’s private jets.

You know you're over forty when the word "hashtag" brings you out in hives. But I've tried. I've really tried to join the #hashtag culture. I've #hashtagged with the best of 'em until I had an epiphany. What if each new, hot hashtag is a subterfuge?

Just ask yourself, "When was the last time I saw #EpsteinDidntKillHimself on a Tweet?". My point. Here are some important hashtags/news stories from 2019-2020 I forgot after other hashtags conveniently...

Are you tormented by the question, ''Is this the summer I should have bought myself a 200-foot oceangoing motor yacht?'' I ask myself this question every time I sail out of the Belle Haven Marina here on the placid Potomac in my 19-foot rental Flying Scot and snag the centerboard in the muck of the ever-lengthening sand bar south of the Woodrow Wilson Bridge. But my answer, which is also invariably the answer of my bank, is always a resounding ''No!'' These enormous, opulent tubs are certainly impressive (a 200-foot coal barge, I might add, is also impressive, especially when...

Epstein’s moral compass was very broken. And, considering we have not seen sufficient proof that he is dead, he might be molesting children as I write this. Did Jeffrey Epstein Actually Commit Suicide, Was He “Suicided” Or Was His Death Faked? Jean-Luc Brunel was an Epstein friend and a scout for Next Top Model. For a birthday gift, according to testimony in court documents, Brunel found 12-year-old triplets for Epstein to have his way with.
