William’s Two-Front Win in Epstein-Era Royal Saga

Two royal headlines frame Prince William as scoring two public wins amid the Epstein-era saga: Beatrice and Eugenie are reportedly barred from riding in Ascot’s carriage, signaling a public distancing from their father, while William has pushed to remove Prince Andrew from the line of succession. The Epstein files deepen scrutiny of the Yorks’ ties and fuel a broader royal-crisis narrative about slimming down the monarchy and holding members to account, with Beatrice and Eugenie attempting to shield their own families from the fallout.

Clinton set for Epstein-linked deposition as Hillary testifies in House probe

Former president Bill Clinton is slated to depose Friday before a House oversight committee probing his ties to Jeffrey Epstein, coming a day after Hillary Clinton testified and criticized the proceedings as partisan theater. Bill Clinton acknowledged flying on Epstein’s private jet in the early 2000s but said he never visited Epstein’s island; the deposition will be held behind closed doors with video released later, after the committee denied a request for a public hearing. The Clintons were subpoenaed in August and initially resisted, then agreed to testify.
