Mega Edition: Prince Andrew And The Files That Were Sealed By UK Authorities (4/26/26) · The Vault: The Epstein Files

0:00
Speaker 1: What's up everyone, and welcome back to the Epstein Chronicles.
0:05
Hope everybody's had a great Labor Day weekend so far,
0:08
and hopefully you're all going to finish it off today
0:11
with one last summer blowout barbecue and some quality relaxation.
0:16
But before your boy can get to all of that,
0:19
we still have some work to do here. So what
0:22
are we going to talk about this morning. We're going
0:25
to talk about Prince Andrew and the fact that he
0:28
has files that are going to be locked away until
0:31
twenty sixty five. That means any files that are kept
0:36
on Prince Andrew won't be released to the public until
0:39
Prince Andrew is one hundred and five years old. And
0:42
we all know this dude isn't going to live to
0:45
be one hundred and five. And why would they do
0:48
something like this, Well, to reduce the fallout. They don't
0:52
want Prince Andrew to be out it because they all
0:54
knew what was going on and they didn't do shit
0:57
to stop it. And the abortion of an event instigation
1:00
that took place by Scotland Yard in the UK is
1:04
one of the biggest embarrassments of this whole entire thing.
1:08
And the fact that people in the political structure in
1:11
the UK would prefer to protect Prince Andrew rather than
1:15
bring justice to the scumbags who are hurting. All of
1:18
these women should tell you everything you need to know
1:22
about the people that you have governing over you. And
1:25
it doesn't matter if you're in the United States or
1:28
the UK or Tim buck fucking too. Every one of
1:32
these politicians has the same goal, more power and more wealth.
1:37
They don't care about people like Jeffrey Epstein. Oh they'll
1:41
make pretend they care. Oh yeah, we're gonna make sure
1:44
that we do a good deep dive into this and
1:46
we're going to get to the bottom of it. Meanwhile,
1:49
it's a bottomless pit. So today, let's deep dive into
1:53
that bottomless pit, and let's talk about these files that
1:57
are going to be locked away until twenty sixty five.
2:02
Today's article is from The Express and the headline Prince
2:06
Andrew files locked away until twenty sixty five, as royal
2:10
biographer slams the culture of secrecy. This article was authored
2:15
by Catherine Meyer Funnel. The Foreign Office will not release
2:20
any information relating to the disgraced Duke of York for
2:24
another four decades, meaning he will likely avoid any fallout
2:29
from them during his lifetime, which is absolutely pathetic. How
2:34
about showing a little bit of backbone over there in
2:36
the UK for once. Huh, that would be nice, bending
2:40
over backwards for people like Prince Andrew on a regular basis.
2:44
For what purpose? Why? What does he bring to the UK?
2:48
What does he bring to the Royal family that's worth
2:51
all of this trouble. Nobody's explained that to me yet.
2:55
And I'm sitting here waiting patiently now for all I
2:58
don't know five years. But in the words of Junior Soprano,
3:01
I guess I'll be waiting until Saint Smithin's day. Files
3:05
relating to Prince Andrew and his conduct will not be
3:08
released by the Foreign Office until twenty sixty five, according
3:12
to a government response to a freedom of information request
3:16
put in by a royal biographer, Andrew Lowney. So anytime
3:20
there's a decision like this made by the government, I
3:22
always ask myself who does this decision serve? Does it
3:26
serve the people or does it serve the people in power?
3:31
And more times than not we all know the answer.
3:33
It serves the people in power and it doesn't serve us.
3:37
And this is certainly an example of that. How does
3:40
keeping these files secret and stashed away further transparency or
3:46
give people confidence in the process. Why not just have
3:49
it be open and aired out to the public so
3:53
that people could see what's going on and people could
3:55
see for themselves that things aren't goofy. But no, instead,
4:01
let's make sure that this dude's paperwork isn't released to
4:04
twenty sixty five, and then if people have questions about it,
4:08
we'll just call them conspiracy theorists. The Duke, who was
4:11
forced to quit as a working member of the royal
4:14
family following allegations about his friendship with convicted sex offender
4:19
Jeffrey Epstein, will therefore likely avoid any public scrutiny of
4:24
the files himself, unless he lives to be one hundred
4:27
and five. Now, what could be so private in that
4:30
paperwork that nobody should have access to it until twenty
4:34
sixty five? Shouldn't all of that stuff be public information?
4:39
Considering a lot of it happened on the public dime,
4:42
So the public should be made aware of what Prince
4:45
Andrew was up to that way later on down the road,
4:48
if any of these royals think they're going to get
4:50
up to it, again, the people of the UK can
4:53
put a stop to it. At what point is enough
4:56
going to be enough for the people of the UK
4:59
and their payations for Prince Andrew and the preferential treatment
5:03
that he continues to receive. Andrew has consistently denied allegations
5:08
from Virginia Roberts that he sexually assaulted her at the
5:11
age of seventeen after she had been trafficked into the
5:14
UK by mister Epstein, who died in prison in twenty nineteen.
5:19
And remember what they said, Oh, there's no investigation to
5:22
be had over here in London, No crimes were committed here.
5:26
Everything was okay, everything's on the up and up. Just
5:29
ask Prince Andrew. He wasn't wearing the right kit during
5:32
the night that Virginia was allegedly assaulted, so it can't
5:36
be him. That's a sort of bullshit they're on. Oh
5:39
he was at the pizza joint. Oh yeah, okay, sure
5:42
that sounds likely. What it really comes down to, folks,
5:46
is they think you're stupid. That's what it comes down to.
5:49
Make no mistake about it, and don't fool yourself. They
5:52
think you're dumb, and they think we're all a bunch
5:54
of useful idiots, and the sad part is we keep
5:58
proving them correct. Lownie, who is currently planning to write
6:02
his next book on the Prince, criticize the lack of
6:05
information on Andrew's affairs as he sought clarification on the
6:09
business trips Andrew undertook while he was the UK Special
6:13
Representative for Trade and Industry Envoy. You know the trip
6:18
he took down to go see Bill Richardson, who hopefully
6:22
is rotting in hell with Jeffrey Epstein right now. Well,
6:25
we're gonna forget that. Prince Andrew went down to Santa
6:27
Fe for a quote unquote official business trip where he
6:32
traded some gifts with Bill Richardson. I mean, I got
6:35
those receipts too, and if anybody from the UK Home
6:38
Office or the investigators in the UK need them, they're
6:43
readily available. See the problem is they don't care. That's
6:47
the problem. We can have all the receipts we want,
6:50
but they don't care. And if you take a look
6:53
at the news cycle from yesterday, look at all the
6:56
articles about Bill Richardson, and look how many of them
6:59
omit the story about him and Epstein and him and
7:03
Virginia Roberts. And that should tell you right there what
7:06
the legacy media thinks about this whole story. Oh sure
7:10
they'll go after people, but not their faves, and not
7:13
if they think going after people is going to give
7:16
political clout to their enemies. And that's how the media
7:19
has approached this case from the very beginning. And that's
7:22
why this podcast is now approaching eight million downloads, because
7:26
the legacy media has failed you when it comes to
7:29
Jeffrey Epstein, and they continue to lie to you about
7:32
everything basically that went on, while leaving out the parts
7:36
that might be damaging to their quote unquote faves, and
7:40
those are just the facts. You could just take a
7:43
look at how the media has handled itself throughout this
7:46
whole entire thing and come to your own conclusion. He
7:50
told The Telegraph there was a culture of secrecy surrounding
7:53
royal correspondence, adding that the firm should still be subject
7:57
to scrutiny as everyone else is. One hundred percent they
8:03
don't deserve to have any sort of privacy or secrecy.
8:06
Why because they're the royal family. Hell does that even mean?
8:12
Mister Lowney said, members of the royal family are not
8:15
subject to the Freedom of Information Act, but I would
8:18
hope with a new reign that only pertinent freedom of
8:22
information acts are exemptions such as national security relations with
8:27
another country, information given in confidence, et cetera, will be
8:32
applied alongside data protection considerations. We're in the absurd position
8:39
that Prince Harry can reveal the most intimate details about
8:43
royal life from months ago for a personal commercial gain,
8:47
and royal households currently brief against each other, yet historians
8:51
cannot look at files. He's not wrong. How is it
8:54
that historians don't have access to all of these files?
8:58
Andrew's role as trade envoys should certainly be up for disclosure,
9:03
and it should certainly be up for the public to
9:05
take a look at. There's no reason that what he
9:08
was up to should be kept private unless they're trying
9:11
to hide something. He added that it was extraordinary that
9:15
the files will not be made public until twenty sixty five,
9:19
as he acknowledged the public interest in investigating Andrew's dealings.
9:23
There's no doubt that the public not only wants to know,
9:26
but deserves to know what Prince Andrew was up to,
9:29
and not the public in America so much as the
9:32
public in the UK. This guy was representing the people
9:36
of the UK while he was out here diddling girls,
9:39
allegedly with Jeffrey Epstein. You mean to tell me that
9:44
people who aren't sick of the monarchy as it is
9:47
aren't disgusted by this. As if Jimmy Savile wasn't enough,
9:52
Let's just keep the tradition going, huh by bringing Epstein
9:55
down the bow moral sounds like a great idea, said nobody. Ever,
10:01
the biographer explained, many questions remain about his role as
10:05
Trade Envoy, a public appointment paid for by the tax payer,
10:09
and his association with figures such as Jeffrey Epstein. There
10:14
is also a strong interest in knowing, for example, who
10:17
is paying for his security now that he is no
10:20
longer a working royal. The royals are given special dispensation
10:25
when it comes to the release of information, as records
10:29
transferred to the National Archives at Q from government departments
10:33
are usually kept secret for only twenty years, So let's
10:37
give him an extra forty five on top of that,
10:40
because you know why not. The sixty three year old
10:43
Duke was the UK Special Representative for Trade and Industry
10:48
Envoy from two thousand and one However, he was forced
10:51
to resign in twenty eleven after images of him meeting
10:55
with Epstein emerged. Shortly after the billionaire GI mean pedal
10:58
file had served eighteen months for sexual offenses. You mean
11:03
thirteen months, and he didn't really serve any time at all.
11:07
If you call being able to leave every day to
11:09
go to quote unquote work serving time, I guess that's
11:12
what he did. But here in the real world, for
11:14
poor people, there's no such thing as going to a
11:18
stockade and getting let out every day to go back
11:21
to work, Okay, so talking about him going to jail
11:25
is pretty much a joke. He was also under scrutiny
11:29
for his very close friendship with Saif Gadaffi, the son
11:33
of the former Libyan leader Momar Gadaffi, and Tarik Katuny,
11:37
a convicted Libyan gun smuggler. In spite of stepping away
11:41
from public life, Andrew still lives at Royal Lodge with
11:45
his ex wife Sarah Ferguson, having resided there for twenty years.
11:50
He also seems to have been making his way back
11:52
into the royal circuit, as he was seen at Balmoral
11:55
with King Charles Queen Camilla Prince William and Princess Kate
12:00
at the end of last month. Oh what you thought
12:03
we were gonna have some kind of disclosure over in
12:05
the UK. Yeah? Right. They're gonna do everything they can
12:09
to protect the brand, to protect the firm, and to
12:12
protect the Joe Exotic of the Windsor family. And if
12:17
that means keeping people in the dark about what he
12:20
was up to, not letting people see the files from
12:23
when he had a public office, then so be it.
12:26
What are you going to do about it? That's basically
12:28
what these governments say when they do stuff like this,
12:32
and really there's nothing that we can do about it
12:35
because the people that we rely on to stop people
12:37
like Jeffrey Epstein, well they were in bed with Jeffrey Epstein.
12:43
All right, folks, that's going to do it for this one.
12:45
All of the information that goes with this episode can
12:48
be found in the description box. What's up everyone, and
12:54
welcome back to the Epstein Chronicles. We recently learned that
12:59
the files that the UK government has on Prince Andrew
13:03
won't be released until Prince Andrew is one hundred and
13:07
five years old. That means that the government won't be
13:11
releasing these files until two thousand and sixty five, And
13:15
the real question is why would they do that. There
13:18
is no good reason, no legitimate reason for those files
13:22
not to be released to the public. Is there some
13:26
sort of state secret in the Andrew files? Was he
13:30
working on some kind of nuclear project that were not
13:33
hip to or something like that, because if not, I
13:37
don't understand how his adventures overseas as trade envoy could
13:43
be considered as classified information. Wasn't like old Boy was
13:47
over here trade and state secrets. Instead, he was hanging
13:51
out with guys like bitch ass Bill Richardson trading sombreros
13:55
for belt buckles. So how is that a state secret?
14:00
We all know it's not. And the real motivation for
14:02
all of this is to make sure that Prince Andrew
14:05
comes out unscathed. They don't want people to know the
14:08
true depths of Prince Andrew's relationship with Jeffrey Epstein and
14:13
that's been the motivation of the Government of the UK
14:16
from the very beginning. Scotland Yard has done a piss
14:21
poor job when it comes to Jeffrey Epstein and Jeffrey
14:25
Epstein's buddies. And the unfortunate truth is that people like
14:28
Prince Andrew have a different set of rules that they
14:31
live by than people like me and you, because I
14:34
can promise you if this was any of us that
14:37
was under this kind of suspicion, that was under this
14:41
sort of pressure, we'd be brought into the FBI yesterday,
14:47
even if we were kicking and screaming as we were
14:49
dragged there. But Prince Andrew, Nah, he doesn't have to
14:53
even talk to the FBI, never mind face any repercussions. Ever.
14:58
Today's article is from Newsweek and the author of this
15:02
article is Jack Royston. Headline, Prince Andrew's secret government files
15:08
spark fury, no justification, and I think that's the understatement
15:12
of the week. There is zero justification for this man's
15:16
information to be kept private. I know it, you know it,
15:21
and the Royals know it. Files relating to Prince Andrew's
15:25
trips as a UK trade endvoy will be kept secret
15:29
by the British government until twenty sixty five, sparking allegations
15:33
that officials want to sweep it all under the carpet
15:37
from anti monarchy campaigners. So anybody who has something to
15:41
say about this is just anti monarchy campaigners, Or how
15:45
about just decent human beings who think that the whole
15:49
entire idea of a family being quote unquote royal is ridiculous.
15:54
Welcome to the modern error. Okay, you don't have to
15:57
be anti monarchy to not want to be ruled by
16:02
some royal inbred family who really can't even pair their
16:05
own socks in the morning. All of a sudden, we
16:08
should just bow down to these people. I mean, I
16:11
guess if some people want to do that, that's fine,
16:14
But personally, I don't care about the royal family. They're
16:17
no different than my neighbors right next door, just regular
16:21
old people that bleed the same way we do, put
16:23
on their pants one leg at a time, and for
16:26
the grand finale at the end of the game, remember
16:29
all the kings, the queens, and the ponds go back
16:33
in the same box. The Duke of York quit public
16:37
life in disgrace over his friendship with Jeffrey Epstein after
16:40
a car crash November twenty nineteen interview. He also settled
16:45
a lawsuit in which Virginia Roberts said she was forced
16:49
to have sex with the royal in London, New York
16:52
and the US Virgin Islands by Epstein and Glenn Maxwell
16:57
while she was a trafficking victim. Andrew and I the allegations,
17:01
but Peter an undisclosed sum sounds like an innocent man
17:05
to me. You know, I didn't do any of this,
17:08
but out of the kindness of my heart, I'm gonna
17:10
write you a check for seventeen million. Hey, honey, go
17:13
get the check book. Does that sound logical to anybody
17:17
out there? Do you really think that if this guy
17:19
was innocent, with all the money he has, all the
17:22
power he has, and all the connections he has, that
17:25
he wouldn't have fought this tooth and nail. What happened
17:28
is this Andrew Brettler, one of the best lawyers in
17:31
the business, took one look at Andrew's bullshit case and
17:34
told him, buddy, you have nothing here. You better settle
17:37
with Virginia before you get your ass nailed to the
17:41
London Bridge. And Prince Andrew, knowing that his time was up,
17:44
knew that I was in his best interest to settle
17:47
with Virginia. And it's not because he just wanted the
17:50
problem to go away. It's because he knew that he
17:53
was cooked and that the house of cards was about
17:55
to come tumbling down. I mean, you can say what
17:59
you want about Deshaun Watson, but he wasn't somebody that
18:02
was just gonna acquiesce to all of the allegations made
18:05
against him. He fought against those allegations and a lot
18:08
of them got thrown out. Now, I'm not saying that
18:11
Deshaun Watson is innocent. I don't know, but what I
18:14
am saying is the way that he responded to the
18:17
allegations against him at least gives his stance of him
18:21
saying that he's innocent a little bit of credibility. Prince
18:25
Andrew over here, he just ran to the ATM real
18:28
quick and was like, you know what, let me pay
18:30
everybody out. Let me give Virginia seventeen million. That doesn't
18:34
sound like an innocent man to me. Biographer Andrew Lowney
18:38
is writing a book about the Duke, famously Queen Elizabeth's
18:42
second favorite son, and submitted a Freedom of Information Act
18:46
request for UK Foreign Off his documents from Andrew's time
18:50
as a British trade envoy. Yeah, he did such a
18:53
great job for the British people. Dhoe was out here
18:56
hanging out with Kadaffi's son, gunrunners, other kinds of fraudsters
19:01
from Turkey, Epstein, whoever the hell else was on Epstein's
19:05
island talk about a motley crew. However, he was told
19:09
that they would remain secret until twenty sixty five, one
19:13
hundred and five years after Andrew's birth, in line with
19:17
special rules designed to keep files on the royal family
19:20
members private. Why can one of my esteemed English listeners
19:25
please shoot me an email and explain to me what
19:27
the motivation is for keeping these people in power when
19:31
they obviously don't respect you, they don't care about you,
19:34
and they're out here using your money to go and
19:36
palle around with Jeffrey Epstein. So what the hell is
19:39
the motivation for letting these people get away with keeping
19:42
this ship private? And now that the Queen is gone,
19:45
a lot of the shit that the Royal family got
19:47
away with before I don't think they're gonna get away
19:50
with now because Queen Elizabeth acted as a buffer of
19:53
sorts with the media and with people asking questions. And
19:57
that's because people love the queen right well, people don't
20:01
love King Charles. So as his reign matures, do you
20:04
really think people are going to afford him the same
20:07
sort of courtesy that they were affording the Queen. I
20:10
don't think so. Ordinarily, government documents are declassified after twenty years,
20:16
meaning any files held by the Foreign Office at the
20:19
time of the allegations against Andrew would already be in
20:23
line for release. Graham Smith, chief executive of anti monarchy
20:28
campaign group Republic, told Newsweek there's no justification for it.
20:33
There's always a reason why people hide things, which is
20:36
because they don't want to be embarrassed or caught up
20:39
in a scandal. One hundred percent. Just be transparent, I mean,
20:44
is it that difficult just to be honest with the
20:46
people of the UK. You owe them that much. Joe
20:49
Exotic of the Windsor Family. Andrew was accused of very
20:54
serious sexual offenses. It would be appropriate to release these files.
20:59
There's certainly anecdotal evidence that he was an embarrassment as
21:03
a trade envoy. There have been reports in the past
21:06
of people complaining about him, and that's a fact. Prince
21:10
Andrew was a joke on every stage he was ever on,
21:13
from school all the way up to the point where
21:16
he was a trade envoy. Nobody ever took this dude
21:18
serious and the only reason he was ever invited was
21:23
because who he was because he happened to hit the
21:25
lottery and get born into the royal family. That's his
21:28
one accomplishment in life. Everybody clap for the moron known
21:32
as Prince Andrew. Among past complaints, Andrew has reportedly caused
21:39
defense on trade visits and was reportedly referred to as
21:44
his buffoon Highness by diplomats, according to Simon Wilson, Britain's
21:48
former deputy head of mission in Barn. However, there is
21:53
also a potential the Foreign Office could help answer some
21:56
questions relating to Prince Andrew's friendship with Epstein, including during
22:01
a key visit to New York. That's why they don't
22:04
want this stuff out there. It's all about Epstein. Everything
22:07
with Prince Andrew, all of his problems, they're all based
22:11
in Jeffrey Epstein's world. And when I say that Prince
22:14
Andrew is living in a gilded cage of his own making,
22:17
that's what I mean. Every single one of his problems
22:20
is self inflicted. The Prince was famously photographed with the
22:25
New York financier Pedophile in Central Park in December of
22:29
twenty ten, after Epstein had served a sentence for soliciting
22:33
prostitution from a minor handed down in two thousand and eight.
22:38
Andrew told journalist Emily Maitlis during his twenty nineteen BBC
22:43
interview he had stayed overnight in Epstein's home in order
22:47
to break up their friendship. Yep, because that's what adults do,
22:51
especially princes. Let me fly across the Atlantic so I
22:56
can go and tell you face to face that I
22:58
can't hang out with you anymore because you're a pedophile.
23:02
Does anybody believe that? I mean, when he was coming
23:05
up with this whole entire excuse, did he really think
23:08
that that was going to fly? Especially when it was scrutinized. However,
23:13
documents disclosed during a lawsuit between the US Virgin Islands
23:17
government and JP Morgan Bank show Epstein and Andrew appeared
23:21
to have discussed a possible oil investment at the time.
23:25
The court filing disclosed by The Mail on Sunday in
23:29
July twenty twenty three read on December two, twenty ten,
23:33
Jeffrey Epstein forwards an email to Staley from Prince Andrew
23:38
with an inquiry the Prince received from Area Petroleum looking
23:42
for two hundred million dollars of working capital since the
23:46
company is based in the US, Prince Andrew appeared to
23:50
suggest that Epstein connect them with the US Bank. It
23:54
is not clear whether the discussion formed part of Andrew's
23:57
role as trade Envoy, and the Foreign Office declined to
24:00
comment at the time. However, any diplomatic communications about the
24:05
New York visit or the deal itself could help to
24:08
either undermine or cement Andrew's account of his friendship with Epstein.
24:14
By the time they are released in twenty sixty five, however,
24:18
Andrew will likely have either passed away or be at
24:21
the very end of his life significantly diminishing interest in
24:25
the issue. And that is the goal. Sweep it under
24:28
the rug until this dude's decrepit and on his deathbed
24:32
and when most people won't even remember what the hell happened.
24:36
Seems like a great plan, and in the old days
24:39
it would have worked because the legacy media would have
24:41
given them a pass. But now they can't get away
24:44
with it, so people are calling them out, and people
24:47
are wondering, once again, what makes the royals so special
24:51
that they get this kind of dispensation while the rest
24:54
of us continue to get the middle finger. All right, folks,
24:58
that's going to do it for this one. All of
25:00
the information that goes with this episode can be found
25:03
in the description box. What's up everyone, and welcome back
25:07
to the Epstein Chronicles. Jeffrey Berman, the ex lead investigator
25:13
who is working on the Jeffrey Epstein case during the
25:16
second arrest, has a new book out, and in that book,
25:20
he's alleging that the UK authorities protected Prince Andrew from
25:26
the Epstein investigation. And I'm over here like, well, you
25:31
know that they're sand in the desert, right, you know
25:34
that water is wet because everybody knows that the UK
25:39
authorities were protecting Jeffrey, I mean, Prince Andrew from the
25:42
Jeffrey Epstein investigation for this whole entire time. Talk about
25:46
a secret that's not a secret. Not only do they
25:51
not help the SDNY or the FEDS when the FEDS
25:54
wanted to talk to Prince Andrew, they also close the
25:59
investigation into Jeffrey Epstein and Glene Maxwell's behavior in London
26:04
and in the UK after a what I would call
26:09
less than robust investigation. I guess they're busy though, right,
26:14
you have people that are going to heckle the royal family.
26:16
So you got to make sure you arrest the people
26:18
that are heckling the royal family. But you can let
26:21
Uncle Touchy run around and continue his nonsense and nobody
26:25
will ever be held accountable, even if it's just for
26:28
a chat. And that's where we're at, folks. That's what
26:33
we've been talking about. These royals. He's so called elite.
26:37
They think that they don't have to play by the
26:38
same rules as you or I, even when you're footing
26:42
the whole entire bill in the UK, you have the
26:46
royals and the taxpayers are foot in that bill. Here
26:49
in America, well, we have our own ruling class, you know,
26:52
these modern day robber barons that call themselves congressmen and
26:56
women and senators. Yeah, they think that they have the
26:59
same kind the deal going on, but they're in for
27:02
a root awakening as well. There is no way in
27:07
hell that any law enforcement agency should be protecting someone
27:12
like Prince Andrew from having a conversation with the federal
27:16
authorities about a scumbag like Jeffrey Epstein. But according to
27:20
Jeffrey Berman, that's exactly what went on today. We have
27:24
an article from the Guardian headline UK authorities protected Prince
27:28
Andrew from us Epstein investigation book says, now, think about
27:34
how terrible that is just on optics alone. This is
27:38
running over in the Guardian right now, over in the UK.
27:42
It's also running in the Daily Mail. It's running everywhere
27:46
because it's a big story. We already know that ABC
27:51
bent over backwards to quash the Virginia Roberts interview with
27:55
Amy Robock to protect the royal family. Now we see
27:58
the authorities in the UK doing the same exact thing
28:01
to protect Uncle Touchy. And it's not like they're trying
28:05
to protect someone's honor here, folks. I would understand if
28:08
it was a hit job, or if it was you know,
28:11
all sorts of craziness. But the fact is the evidence
28:16
is a mile high. And just because you're a royal,
28:20
just because you're a politician, just because you're an athlete, whatever,
28:24
doesn't mean that you should be immune from repercussions when
28:28
you do something that's out of line. And when we're
28:30
talking about Prince Andrew, it is way out of line.
28:35
Just the hanging out with Jeffrey Epstein the way he was,
28:38
that's enough to sink a guy who really can't afford
28:42
any kind of scandal like this, but you add the
28:47
other stuff, you add the fact that he's being credibly
28:50
accused on top of that, and I don't know how
28:53
anyone could want to protect this guy. And the authorities
28:57
in the UK they're gonna have some explaining to do,
29:00
so there's no doubt about that. This article was authored
29:05
by Martin Pengale. British authorities protected Prince Andrew from US
29:12
prosecutors investigating his relationship with the financier you mean, pedophile
29:17
and sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, according to a new book
29:21
by a US attorney who led the investigation in New
29:24
York and now, when Berman was fired from this position
29:29
at the SDNY, there was all sorts of talk that
29:33
it had to do with Epstein, and that's why Berman
29:36
was let go by barn Company. Now, of course that's
29:39
just the scuttle, but I don't know for sure. I
29:41
can't confirm that, but that certainly is the conversation that
29:45
was taking place at the time. Jeffrey Berman was fired
29:50
as US Attorney for the Southern District of New York
29:53
in June of twenty twenty. He is now the author
29:56
of Holding the Line Inside the nation's preeminent US attorney
30:00
and its battle with the Trump Justice Department, a book
30:04
published on Tuesday. Now, Berman is in this legal dispute
30:10
with bar and with the Trump administration talking about the
30:13
way he was fired. Now that might be the case,
30:16
but my real beef with Berman is this all went
30:20
on in the SDNY for all of these years, and
30:23
until Julie K. Brown wrote the article, no one could
30:26
be bothered to lift a finger. So the fact that
30:31
none of these co conspirators have been rounded up and
30:34
the fact that nobody else has went to jail really
30:38
doesn't look good for the SDNY. And they run around
30:41
and they talk about how they're the pre eminent law
30:44
enforcement agency, how they're the pre eminent US Attorney's office
30:47
in the country. And I have to tell you I
30:51
have more than a couple of doubts about that statement,
30:55
because look, I'm a numbers guy, right, The numbers don't lie.
31:00
When you're making big decisions in business or in life,
31:02
you follow the numbers. And the numbers here say that
31:06
the sdn Y ignored this for way too long. How
31:10
many instances do we have to refer to where people
31:13
brought this to their attention and nobody took any action.
31:19
Berman's allegations of political interference in the most prestigious jurisdiction
31:23
in US law have already prompted news of a Senate investigation.
31:28
You notice it has nothing. It's not the Epstein stuff
31:30
that prompts any Senate investigations ever. Though, right and now,
31:33
I'm not saying there shouldn't be any other committees. I'm
31:37
not saying there shouldn't be any other hearings. What I'm
31:40
saying is these people out there who run around and
31:43
act like they care and act like they want to
31:44
get to the bottom of things. They need to be
31:46
able to chew gum and walk at the same time.
31:49
What you can only have one committee hearing, We're not
31:52
gonna have any sort of real look at what went
31:55
on with Jeffrey Epstein for all of these years, no commission. Well,
32:00
ask yourselves why they wouldn't want to do that. Why
32:03
wouldn't all of these people who are you know, rubbing
32:06
shoulders with the so called eleite want to have their
32:09
laundry aired out for you to see. His claims about
32:13
obstruction in the matter of Prince Andrew and Epstein may
32:16
cause consternation in a royal family dealing with the death
32:20
of the Queen, and they're out here worrying about Megan
32:23
Markel and the other numbnut who's living here in America,
32:26
the other son, when they should be worrying about Prince Andrew.
32:29
They should be worrying about the fact that Scotland yards
32:32
running cover for this dude and obstructing a federal investigation
32:37
in the United States. And the galling part is, it's
32:40
not like it only happened in the United States. This
32:43
was taking place in Europe. It was taking place in
32:46
the UK, it was taking place in eastern Europe. And
32:49
we know these scumbags were in Africa. We know they
32:51
were in Asia. So my guess is I can't confirm
32:54
it one way or the other, but my guess is
32:56
they were abusing people there as well. Before taking part
33:02
in mourning ceremonies, Andrew had rarely been seen in public
33:05
since agreeing to a multimillion dollar settlement with a survivor
33:09
of Epstein, who accused the Prince of sexual assault when
33:13
she was a teenager, acclaim the Prince has denied. Berman
33:17
says SDNY prosecutors were eager to talk with Andrew about
33:21
his friendship with Epstein and Glen Maxwell, Epstein's former girlfriend,
33:26
co conspirator, general all around scumbag, bipedal serpent, and fellow
33:30
child abuser. I think that's what you mean, mister author
33:32
of this article, who in New York in June was
33:35
sentenced to twenty years in prison on sex trafficking charges.
33:39
Andrew Berman writes, stated publicly that he would cooperate with
33:43
the investigation, and we intended to give him a chance
33:46
to make good on his word. But though the Prince
33:49
kept publicly saying that he was cooperating in the Epstein investigation,
33:53
Berman writes, that was not true. And we said that
33:57
from Jump Street, we knew that this guy wasn't cooperating,
34:01
and we knew that he was just trying to muck
34:02
up the waters a little bit. He figured that if
34:05
he kicked the can down the road long enough, all
34:07
of this would go away. That's what all of these
34:10
people thought, because why would they think anything else, considering
34:13
the track record of them always getting away with bullshit
34:16
like this, Why would they be worried that this was
34:19
going to be the time that it would boomerang and
34:21
crack him in the mug. Well, guess what it was?
34:24
The time? Berman says he asked his team to reach
34:28
out in November of twenty nineteen, after Andrew gave a
34:32
lengthy and disastrous interview to the BBC. And this kid's
34:36
is why you don't give an interview to the media
34:39
if you're accused of a crime, because you don't think
34:42
the sdn WY is watching. You don't think the FBI's
34:45
watching or insert law enforcement agency here. Of course they are,
34:49
and everything you say, they're gonna write that shit down.
34:52
And believe me, these people are cagier than you. And
34:55
when you sit down with them and you're looking across
34:58
from some interrogator that just done waterboarding some dude inn
35:02
isis well, my guest is uncle Touchy is gonna be
35:05
on the receiving end of an ass whipping. There, Okay,
35:14
Two New York prosecutors spent about two weeks just trying
35:17
to find out who his lawyers were. Berman says, we
35:20
tried calling Buckingham Palace and they were not helpful. We
35:24
tried the Department, the Department of Justice attached and State Department.
35:28
No luck. When we finally got to his lawyers, they
35:31
had all these questions. You know, it's hilarious all of
35:35
these people that don't want to help the State Department,
35:38
the Department of Justices, attache, and ask yourself again, why
35:43
don't any of these people want to help? Why don't
35:46
people want this exposed? And it's a very simple and
35:50
basic question that none of the people that suck up
35:53
the narrative here and want to call you a conspiracy theorist, Well,
35:56
it's a question that they can't answer. Berman says, an
36:01
endless email exchange made it clear we were getting the
36:04
run around from lawyers who did not want the Prince
36:07
to talk to the SDNY about Epstein. He was not
36:11
going to sit down with us, Berman writes, despite assuring
36:14
the public that he was ready, willing and able to cooperate.
36:18
Of course he wasn't. The dude's a liar, he has
36:21
no honor, and it's been very apparent from the very
36:24
beginning that all he wants to do is obfuscate. Here
36:29
are you? He was not going to sit down with us,
36:32
Berman writes, despite as sharing the public that he was ready,
36:36
willing and able to cooperate. Berman says the comment he
36:39
made to reporters in January twenty twenty that Andrew had
36:43
provided zero cooperation brought the Prince's lawyers back to the table,
36:47
but no interview ensued. And if you go back and
36:51
listen to the episode from back then when I posted
36:54
about it talking about this, that's what I said was
36:56
going to happen. Sometimes you just have to embarrass people
37:00
into action. And when you have the SDNY or a
37:04
federal prosecutor's office calling you out on national TV like that,
37:08
going against everything they usually do, you know it's a
37:11
serious situation. The SDNY then tried to compel the Prince
37:17
to cooperate using an MLET, or mutual Legal Assistance treaty
37:22
request via the US State Department. Berman says such requests
37:25
had always worked both ways before, but that was not
37:29
what happened with Prince Andrew. He writes, we got absolutely
37:32
nowhere were they protecting him? I presume someone was, Oh yeah,
37:36
well plenty of someone's And I'm sure it wasn't just
37:39
on the UK side of the pond. I'm sure some
37:43
of Berman's own colleagues were in on the protection racket. Hell,
37:47
who do you think was protecting Epstein? And they all
37:50
have skin in the game here, right, They all have
37:52
something to lose. And while they can burn an asset
37:54
like the land Maxwell. They can burn an act an
37:57
asset like Jean Luke Brunel, or they can burn an
38:00
asset like Jeffrey Epstein. A little harder to burn an
38:03
asset like Prince Andrew right, a little bit more difficult
38:07
to knock that dude off the play on board for
38:09
these scumbacks. Noting a protest from Andrew's lawyers in June
38:18
twenty twenty that the SDNY was seeking publicity rather than
38:22
the assistants, Berman says, just to be clear, there was
38:26
no assistance profit, so they offered nothing. And the whole
38:30
reason again that he did this was to try and
38:32
compel them to offer something up. He also says the
38:39
SDNY was not interested in a written statement from the Prince,
38:43
as that's not how we do investigations, even for British royals.
38:47
In keeping with his other allegations about the Trump administration
38:51
interference in the SDNY, Berman also says the man who
38:54
fired him, then US Attorney General William Barr, saw the
38:58
Epstein case as a US full pawn in a political
39:01
game with the British government. Why should that shock anybody.
39:05
Berman never had any interest in the truth. He never
39:08
had any interest in getting to the truth. All he
39:10
had an interest in is protecting the Department of Justice.
39:14
Why do you think that the case against the guards
39:17
went away? Why do you think nothing from that day
39:20
has seen the light of day because he tried to
39:23
protect the Department of Justice rather than doing what he
39:27
should be doing and being transparent and restoring faith in
39:31
the Department of Justice. And this is why nobody trusts them. Barr,
39:37
Berman writes, explained that he saw our request to talk
39:39
to Andrew as sort of a chit in a dispute
39:42
with the British involving a US diplomat's wife who had
39:46
accidentally killed a nineteen year old British motorcyclist in an
39:50
auto accident. So Bill Barr was trying to play politics.
39:53
Just again shows you the kind of scumbag he is.
39:56
He's so worried about protecting some scumbag American diplomat's wife
40:00
who killed some poor kid while she was drunk, But
40:04
when it comes to protecting Epstein's survivors, naw, we don't
40:07
got time for any of that. He is referring to
40:10
the case of Harry Dunn, who was killed in the
40:13
crash with a car driven by Ann Saclus a US
40:16
citizen who the Trump administration refused to extradite to face charges,
40:21
citing diplomatic immunity. Straight trash from Donald Trump. Anyone saying
40:25
any different, Well, I don't know what to tell you,
40:28
because you can't demand that we get cooperation, and at
40:31
the same time, we're not willing to give over a
40:34
mere diplomat's wife, but we're demanding they hand over their prince.
40:40
So really, like I said, it's both sides of the
40:42
pond here, and there's corruption everywhere. It's rampant. Barr told
40:49
me that the public rift over Prince Andrew's refusal to
40:52
sit for an interview was useful in this other case.
40:54
Berman writes it inflicted pr damage, was my impression, and
40:58
made it more palatable for the administration to hold firm.
41:02
Berman says this approach seemed questionable to me, but it
41:06
did not affect our approach with Prince Andrew. I still
41:09
wanted to interview him, but it had nothing to do
41:12
with Barr's agenda. Why would it. Barr has never been
41:16
an ally to justice here. He's never been an ally
41:19
to getting people who were involved here held accountable, and
41:25
all he's done is run interference for the institution for
41:28
the elite for his whole entire life. So Bill Barr,
41:33
I hope he gets absolutely blasted in front of some
41:37
Senate committee. But what's it going to be good for?
41:39
More political theater. Here's where I'm at. Okay, I don't
41:44
care about all of your committees. I don't care about
41:46
all these hearings. I don't care about shit. Wake me up.
41:48
When you start charging people with real crimes, then we'll
41:51
get to it. Because political theater gets us nowhere. We're
41:57
just stuck in neutral while guys like Prince Andrew continue
41:59
to skate. There should be a huge uproar over shit
42:03
like this bar trying to use it as a political chip,
42:07
the UK government protecting this dude. I mean, I think
42:10
it's relatively apparent that the whole entire thing is corrupt.
42:15
That this isn't a conspiracy theory. This is a criminal
42:18
conspiracy that went on for decades and spanned continents. So
42:24
with these new allegations, Berman is just basically confirming what
42:28
we all already knew. Prince Andrew the Pappert, the Prince
42:34
of Corgy's uncle Touchy, the Joe Exotic of the Windsor family,
42:39
has been protected every single step of the way. If
