Key Discussion Points & Insights

Prince Andrew’s Latest Scandal: Chinese Spy Ties

[00:00 - 21:30]

• Central Story: New reports indicate Prince Andrew sought money from a Chinese businessman later identified as an alleged Chinese spy, raising serious questions about national security and Andrew’s financial desperation.
• How It Unfolded: The Chinese "friend" attended Andrew’s birthday, attempted to raise funds for him, and was later stopped at the UK border in 2021—where MI5, after examining his phone, found letters from Andrew's advisor detailing efforts to secure Chinese investment.
  • “Prince Andrew is the biggest moron in the history of the world. Bro doesn’t even use a burner phone... You are not a criminal, okay? More like Mr. Bean.” (A, 13:23)
• Royal Family Response: Despite Buckingham Palace recently claiming Andrew’s finances are legitimate, Capucci lambasts their credibility: “Buckingham Palace, if you haven’t noticed by now, is populated by liars... Instead of trying to protect people from Jeffrey Epstein.” (A, 04:19)
• Implications:
  • Andrew’s “Eurasia Fund” was allegedly being fruitlessly peddled around via the spy’s connections in China.
  • MI5 alleged the businessman belonged to China’s United Front Work Department, raising obvious espionage concerns.
• Insight: Capucci deconstructs the arrogance and ineptitude on display, mocking the Royal Family’s self-preservation and the lack of accountability.

Palace Reaction: Reputation Damage and Impotence

[21:31 - 38:01]

• King Charles’ Frustration: Capucci references reports from the Daily Mail about King Charles being “furious” over Andrew’s actions, but still unable to outright cut off his brother due to familial ties.
  • “How long are you going to let your brother embarrass not only you, but the whole family?” (A, 23:05)
• No Real Authority: Palace officials claim they have no authority to audit Andrew’s finances.
  • “How can anyone support the Royal family these days? Hell, ever? You think they care about you?” (A, 28:01)
• Royal Security and Royal Lodge: Andrew convinced authorities he had “legitimate” funds to support his residence, but the loophole: the Palace says they aren’t empowered to even investigate.

Media and Public Scrutiny: Andrew's Unending Embarrassment

[38:02 - 54:38]

• TV Dramas & Public Image: New TV dramas and documentaries continue to pick apart Andrew’s infamous Newsnight interview and refute his claims about Virginia Roberts (now Giuffre).
  • “If you look up Grifter in the dictionary, you’re gonna find a picture of Prince Andrew... Everything this man has, has been given to him.” (A, 41:40)
• Out-of-Court Settlement: Capucci digs into the logic: why settle with a massive payout if innocent?
• Prince Andrew’s Reaction in Dramas: Dramatizations portray Andrew as flippant—“How on earth is a bloke supposed to remember all the women he’s bedded?”—further cementing his image as entitled and out of touch.
• Capucci’s Verdict: The host ridicules Andrew’s excuses, especially his infamous “Pizza Express” alibi, and lambasts the lack of consequences.

Financial Scandals: The £750,000 "Gift"

[38:02 - 54:38]

• Turkish Money Trail: Focus shifts to the mystery around a £750,000 gift from a Turkish ex-banker, funneled through alleged fraudster Selman Turk, initially claimed as a “wedding gift” for Princess Beatrice.
  • “So the real question is, what’s the deal with this money? What’s Andrew’s involvement, and will he ever be held accountable? My guess is he won’t be.” (B, 39:30)
• Court Proceedings: Turkish businesswoman Nebahat Isbilen sues over the missing millions—Andrew and Sarah Ferguson reportedly received substantial sums while she sought asylum.
  • “What kind of scoundrel do you have to be to take advantage of a woman who is fleeing her homeland...?” (B, 42:45)
• Bank Records & Allegations:
  • Alleged that Andrew provided assistance with Isbilen’s passport in exchange for the money, disguised as a “gift.”
  • The funds were ultimately returned after scrutiny, but the optics are damning.
  • “Every criminal in the world who’s involved in financial malfeasance, if they just return the money, it’s all good. Of course it’s not. Why did you accept the money in the first place?” (B, 50:49)
• Dragging the Family In: Andrew’s daughters—Beatrice and Eugenie—also received payments, allegedly for “birthday gifts” or “surprise parties.”
  • “The idea, you fucking clown, is to keep your family out of stuff like this, not drag them into it with you.” (B, 47:54)
• Systemic Grifting: Capucci points to a pattern of privilege and lack of shame: “These people are the ultimate grifters, aren’t they? They have zero shame.” (B, 53:51)

Transcript

[A]

What's up, everyone? And welcome to another episode of the Epstein Chronicles. So our favorite Windsor, the Joe Exotic of the Windsor family, has now found himself caught up once again in a scandal. At least this time it doesn't involve underage girls, but it does involve a Chinese spy and some money that he allegedly got or sought from this spy. Now, considering we just learned previously that Prince Andrew had some secret benefactor who rode in to save the day, what are the chances that this is the man that gave Prince Andrew some dough or directed Prince Andrew in the correct direction to get that dough? Either way, it's never a good look for a prince of the monarchy to be palling around with a Chinese spy. Today's article is from the Daily Beast, and the headline, desperate Prince Andrew Sought Money from an Alleged Chinese Spy. This article was authored by Tom Sykes. A friend of Prince Andrew's who was invited to his birthday party and tried to raise money for him, has been unmasked as an alleged Chinese spy. Boy, this is hilarious. Considering there's still some people out there that support Prince Andrew using a term from the uk what kind of nonce are you to support this moron? I mean, there's nobody else you can throw your support behind. What are you gonna gain from supporting Prince Andrew? What exactly is coming your way besides a bunch of people laughing at you? Besides possible legal jeopardy? Why the hell would anybody want a pal around with Prince Andrew? The shocking revelation will cast new doubt on Andrew's murky finances just weeks after Buckingham palace gave his accounts a clean bill of health and said his funds came from legitimate sources. Oh, I'm sure they did. Buckingham palace, if you haven't noticed by now, is populated by liars. People who thought it would be a good idea to try and protect the brand instead of trying to protect people from Jeffrey Epstein. So that tells you everything you need to know about the Royal Family. And for all the people over there in the UK who are loyalists and monarchists. Nobody cares about your crying and your bitching and your moaning when people bag on the Royal family. What a bunch of inbred morons they are. And the fact that people are out here still bowing down to them is wild as hell to me. Breaking news. They put their pants on the same way we do. So you can save me with the whole, oh, well, they're royals. That might get some traction over there in Europe, but over here in America, we don't give a damn about any of it. And I specifically don't give a damn about any of it. The whole Idea of kings and queens and dukes and barons is so bizarre to me that it's almost hard to even put it into words. How ridiculous I think it is. And as far as Buckingham palace being the arbiters of truth, have they ever told the truth ever in their history? The Chinese businessman believed Andrew was desperate and sought to find partners and investors for a financial fund Andrew was instrumental in trying to establish. A report in the London Times says, it's wild to me to think that Prince Andrew still believes that, that he can get away with this. In the old days, it was fine because nobody was looking, nobody cared. His mom was protecting him. But now that ship is sailed and everybody's on to Prince Andrew's. Well, everybody but this Chinese spy and some of the other people support him. You know, the handful of people that do that. But besides that, nobody's buying this man's bs. But he thinks the same old stuff's going to fly. He thinks he can get away with the things he used to get away with. Well, he can't. And hopefully this is a reckoning for him. Do I think it's going to be? I don't, but it should be. If I got money from a Chinese spy at 8, the government would be at my house at 9, and by 10, I'd be on a plane to Gitmo. So stop with the bullshit, okay? These people don't deserve any special privileges or special treatment. Nothing. Especially this goofy, inbred MFer Prince Andrew. In a clear sign Andrew was trading on his royal title and name, alleged spy was assured by an advisor in Andrew's camp that he was at the top of the tree of the royal family's affection. He was reportedly told that the strength of Andrew's relationship with him could not be underestimated. That might be the lie of the year. In a time where lies are the truth, that might be the lie of the year, folks. Prince Andrew is at the top of the tier with the royal family. I would think that somebody might want to let the royal family know that the involvement of Andrew's family in this new breaking scandal will pose new questions over their lavish lifestyles. So is the whole family getting Chinese spy money? I wouldn't put it past him, honestly. It's never enough, right? You never have enough. Once you get to that level and you have all that money, there's never enough of it. You have to keep making it and you have to keep on people to do. Doesn't matter what anybody else is going through. It doesn't matter how you get to that destination. And as long as you get there and get another bag so you can go swim around your money like Scrooge McDuck. Everybody else, right, Profits over people. And anybody who's under the illusion that the Royal Family isn't getting down like that, well, I have news for you. You're gonna be sorely disappointed. Andrew has had well documented problems with his controversial friendships. In 2019, he was ejected from his role in the Royal Family after a disastrous interview in which he said he he was too honorable to end his friendship with Jeffrey Epstein by phone. Instead combining the task with a days long stay at the dead pedophile's luxury townhouse. And the fact that he pitched that BS to people and thinking they're going to believe it is crazy. So let me fly across the pond so I can break up with you in person and our friendship can end because you're a pedophile. But first, I'm going to stay the night on your couch. In what world does that make sense? In what world is that acceptable? Well, in Prince Andrew's world, and I guess in the Queens, his ex wife Sarah Ferguson was also drawn into it. She borrowed 15 GS off Epstein when she got into financial difficulties. Run to daddy Epstein. Hey Jeffy, can I get 15 GS? Hey Jeffy, can I get this? Can I get that? That's what all of them are doing. Don't let them tell you any different. And then to have the audacity to lie directly to our faces when it's all documented is some wild ass work. The extraordinary and embarrassing connection between the alleged Chinese spy and Andrew were discovered by authorities after the spy, who has now been banned from Britain on national security grounds, was stopped trying to enter the UK in 2021 and had contents of his phone downloaded by border agents. Prince Andrew is the biggest moron in the history of the world. Bro doesn't even use a burner phone to conduct his business. You are not a criminal, okay? More like Mr. Bean. Prince Andrew is such a moron. He's Monty and Python. According to a report in the London Times, agents discovered a letter on the phone from Dominic Hampshire, an advisor to Andrew, which authorized the Chinese national to find Andrew partners and investors in China for a financial scheme known as the Eurasia Fund. The time says that Britain's Security Service MI5 allegedly discovered the businessman, 50, was a member of the Chinese Communist Party and was working for its United Front work department which gathers intelligence. Well, what do you know? Prince Andrew was getting run. You would think the first time around with Epstein was good enough for him, but I guess not. Bro's out here trying to play spy games and he's not even capable of playing spy craft. He was denied entry into the uk, a decision which has now been upheld despite an appeal. So, yeah, scumbag, a dude that is obviously working for the Chinese government. And Prince Andrew, with his short arms and long pockets, has his hand out once again. The letter from Hampshire reportedly told the Chinese, I hope that it's clear to you where you sit with my principal and indeed his family. You should never underestimate the strength of that relationship. Outside of his closest internal confidants. You sit at the very top of the tree the that many, many people would like to be on. Yo, the hubris. Who the fuck wants to be on that tree? You have to be an absolute moron if you're seeking out Prince Andrew's good grace. At this point, there's nobody else better to focus your resources on if you're playing spy games, Carrie Matheson. These fools are not. The letter hinted at internal subterfuge in Andrew's camp, saying they had wisely navigated our way around former private secretaries and we have found a way to carefully remove those people who we don't completely trust. Under your guidance. We found a way to get the relevant people unnoticed in and out of the house in Windsor. Well, isn't that nice? The galling part here is that nothing's going to be done about it. Prince Andrew is not going to face any repercussions. Things are going to get on like they always get on, and this story will be forgotten in the dustbin of history. In a stinging rebuke, Judge Charles Bourne said the alleged spy had won a significant degree, one could say an unusual degree of trust from a senior member of the Royal family who is prepared to enter into business activities with him. Now, hang on a second here. Aren't you folks over there in the UK arresting people for making posts on the Internet? Now all of a sudden Prince Andrew's in bed with a spy from China and it's all good. I would think that people would be more upset about Prince Andrew palling around with a spy and maybe getting dough from him or whatever than they are about a social media post. But hey, what do I know? I'm just some dumb American, right? He added, that occurred in a context where, as the contemporaneous documents record, the Duke was under considerable pressure and could be expected to value the applicant's loyal support. It's obvious that the pressure on the Duke could make him vulnerable to the misuse of that sort of influence. What you think in the best of times it's not a good idea to to be palling around with a Chinese spy. And that goes doubly for a member of the Royal family. The revelation will heap new pressure on the palace to explain why in a recent finding, Andrew's source of funds, which he is using to support his ongoing occupation of his palatial home, Royal Lodge, were deemed legitimate. A document found on the suspected spy's phone said Andrew was in a desperate situation and will grab onto anything. The document, dated August 2021, stated, Important manage expectations. A really important to not set too high expectations. He is in a desperate situation and will grab onto anything. B key message, everything's going well, going to plan. C. Do not mention any big numbers as this will create unnecessary expectations and pressure. So he was grooming him, he was working him. This is what a case agent does and anybody who doesn't see that is either stupid or they're ignoring it. And that goes for the authorities, especially over in the uk. What is wrong with you people? It continued, if he does talk about money, things are going well. Discussing with Dominic who will follow up B if he asks about when deals are happening, making good progress, not immediately, but in the not too distant future, it's better to under promise and and then over deliver. This is Spycraft 101 right here. This is what a case agent does, this is how they manage their assets and that's what Prince Andrew was obviously an asset. The historian Andrew Lowney, who is writing a new biography on Andrew, told the Daily Beast that there have long been concerns about the exact nature of his contacts and his relationships with China. When no one wanted to attend his 60th birthday, who turned up? Bernie Ecclestone, who was trying to set up F1 in China and the Chinese ambassador, he said, I think this is likely just the tip of the iceberg of the potential scandals surrounding Andrew's decade as the Government's Special Representative for Trade and Investment. There needs to be a full investigation, exactly what he was doing and the records need to be released because there are clear signs of a cover up. Well, you think. What do you think the chances are that it ever goes anywhere, though? I say slim to none. Remember, we're talking about the uk where they don't care about justice when it comes to Epstein, where they don't care about justice when it comes to girls getting molested, obviously. So if anybody thinks that anyone's really going to do a real investigation into Prince Andrew. They're going to be very, very disappointed as this all continues to unfold. And I wouldn't be shocked if this goes away completely within a couple of months. They sweep it under the rug, they forget about it and they keep it moving. The last thing the monarchy wants is another scandal. And if they're lap dogs in the UK media and the UK law enforcement bureaus can help them out, they most certainly will. We've seen it time and time again and I don't expect it to change here. So while we all know that Prince Andrew probably took a bunch of money from this dude and who knows what kind of information he gave him, nothing's going to come of it. Because remember folks, those laws are just for you and me, not for people like Prince Andrew. All of the information that goes with this episode can be found in the description box. What's up, everyone? And welcome back to the Epstein Chronicles. Recently we were talking about Prince Andrew and his newest trouble now that he's been attached to a Chinese spy and somebody who is obviously trying to promote Chinese interests within the ruling class and the royal family within the uk. And as you can imagine, the King himself is not too happy about what's going on. And I can't say that I blame him. Today's article is from the Daily Mail and the headline king Charles is furious with Prince Andrew over Chinese spy crisis that made the entire Royal family look bad. Insiders reveal this article was authored by Mark Hookham. The King is understood to be furious that Prince Andrew has plunged the monarchy into a major scandal with his relationship with an alleged Chinese spy, tarnishing the reputation of the entire royal family. Imagine being as big of a boob as the Joe Exotic of the Windsor family. Bros out here, hanging out with Chinese spies, sleeping at Jeffrey Epstein's house, hanging out in Libya with gun runners. What did he think was going to happen? Just another person who thought that there was never going to be any recourse for his. Well, guess what? That ship is pulled directly into the dock and Prince Andrew, you got some explaining to do, my friend. A source, however, said said that despite his frustration with the Duke of York, Charles has accepted that he can't divorce or sack his younger brother as there will always be a bond of blood. I mean, really, I don't know about all that. How long are you going to let your brother embarrass not only you, but the whole family? At some point, you have to make a move. Listen, bro, you got to go to Timbuktu, you're going to the furthest island chain in the illusions something. Because this can't continue to go on. At some point there has to be some sort of redress. But unfortunately, when it comes to Prince Andrew, I'm not going to hold my breath. This man has gotten away with his. For all these years, there's never been any sort of ramifications for him. Instead he's continued to be babied by the Queen first and now obviously by the King. I don't care if you're my brother. I don't care who you are. The nation and the monarchy has to come first. And if you're the person that puts that in jeopardy, you're gonna pay for it. It came as this newspaper learnt that astonishingly, the palace is unable to rule out that the Duke is using money from the Chinese donors to stay in the 30 room Royal Lodge in Windsor Park. And this is exactly what I said when the story broke. There is no way that he wasn't using that money. But from this alleged Chinese spy to fix all this stuff up. Who else is coming to his rescue? Nobody's showing up on a white horse to save Prince Andrew. Maybe the Lady Victoria Hervey. But besides that, who the hell else is showing up to protect this dude or speak on his behalf? Maybe he can have his buddy Ghislaine Maxwell write him a letter. Officials have concluded they have no authority or legal right to probe Andrew's financial affairs. Emma. Simply rely on his word that his income is from legitimate sources. Well, that's quite a deviation. Last time we were talking about this, they said that they had checked all the money and everything was on the up and up. But I guess that was another lie from the Royal family. How can anyone support the Royal family these days? Hell, ever? You think they care about you? You think the Royal family gives a damn about you or your family? They most certainly do not. So why people are out here defending them is just beyond me. Besides tradition, what exactly is it that they add to the conversation? Oh, that's right, nothing. Scandal. Stealing from the people and acting like a bunch of bloviating morons. The palace has behaved the best it possibly can with a difficult relation. The source said last night. Every sanction that can be imposed has been. But you can't divorce or sack your brother from being your brother. There will always be a bond of blood and all families often have difficult relatives to deal with. Of course, it's understood that it looks bad for the entire family, but that is because of one individual? No, it's because the family has refused to rein in this one individual. How long are they going to let this dude run roughshod over them and the people of the uk? At some point, enough has to be enough, right? And for me, that point passed about, oh, I don't know, four years ago. The latest scandal erupted Thursday when it was revealed that a close confidant of the Duke of York was an alleged Chinese spy who has been banned from entering the UK after an investigation by MI5. So we're not talking about the local police here. MI5, you know, James Bond. Yeah, those people, they investigated here and they found out that this dude's a spy and he's out here palling around with Prince Andrew. I'd love to say that I'm shocked, but I'm not. What we have here is a typical Prince Andrew move. Him looking to get some money from somebody. And if you think Prince Andrew gives a damn where that money sourced from, you're crazy. He does not. All this dude wants to do is benefit. And all he's ever done his benefit off of his name, his. His position and who his mother is. In what appears to be an extraordinary breach of national security, the alleged agent, who can be named only as age 6, was so close to Andrew that he visited Buckingham palace twice and entered St James palace and Windsor Castle right along with Epstein and Maxwell. Huh? Hell of a guy, that Joe Exotic of the Windsor family. He was even advised to act on Andrew's behalf to seek investors in China. MI5 discovered that the businessman, 50, was a member of the Chinese Communist Party and was working for its shadowy United Front Work Department, which gathers intelligence. I mean, how in the hell is this not something that is more of a problem? How is Prince Andrew not being banished all the way to Bogeyland at this point? I would send this dude to, like, McMurdo down in Antarctica and that his new gig is cleaning up the johns down there. Yeah, that's right. You're the latrine specialist down in Antarctica. Go clean some shit, shut up and leave everybody else alone. Then again, we know that the penguins are even disgusted by this dude. When police stopped him at the UK border in 2021, it was discovered that he had a briefing document in which Andrew appeared to be described as being in a desperate situation and will grab onto anything. And I think that's an understatement. Prince Andrew most certainly is somebody who is willing to grab onto whatever. Somebody who's desperate. Somebody who is used to having A lot more than he currently has. And now that reality is setting in that the grift is over. At least we thought it was. Well, Prince Andrew has to make other moves. And if that means jumping in bed with some communist, then hell, so be it. If you think this guy has any pride in himself in the Royal Family or the uk, you are mistaken. Prince Andrew is as much of a me first as there's ever been, maybe in the history of the world. The Mail on Sunday can reveal the alleged spy has previously attended a meeting of the powerful Chinese People Political Consultative Conference in Beijing. In a sign of his importance to China's Communist Party, he was pictured on the front row of the meeting and the vast Great hall of the People. So when you're part of that crew, the Chinese Communist Party, there is certain rungs and placement for pictures. It's a whole thing. And this guy's obviously somebody who's well thought of, one of their top spies, probably, and somebody that they dispatched to deal with Andrew because they knew that Andrew was an absolute and. Well, the more we learn about all of this, the more that theory is bearing out. Royal sources are concerned. The mounting controversy threatens to overshadow the good work of the King and Queen as well as the Prince and Princesses of Wales. It also comes less than two weeks before the King's Christmas message. Oh, the King's Christmas message, is it? His message should be, well, the joke's on you. Prince Andrew continues to use the monarchy as his own plaything. That should be the King's message, but instead it'll be some contrived BS that nobody even cares about. Earlier this year, the King stopped paying his brother's 3 million pound a year security bill at Royal Lodge and urged him to move into more modest accommodation. But in November, it emerged that the Duke had been allowed to stay at the property after convincing palace authorities that he has secured enough funds to support himself. Like, we're not talking about a few bucks here. We're not talking about a guy who went and did a few Uber eat calls. We're talking about a guy that had to get millions of dollars, right? And where's he gonna get that money from? Well, obviously getting it from a Chinese Communist source. At least according to these reports. The keeper of the Privy Purse, Sir Michael Stevens, reportedly approved the financing as coming from legitimate sources last week. Revelations, however, raised fresh questions about where exactly the Joe Exotic of the Windsor family has found the money to bankroll his stay at the Windsor Mansion. The MOS understands that because his leasehold agreement is with the Crown Estate and not the Royal household. He has the same rights and responsibilities as any private tenant. Indeed, the palace has concluded that it does not have the power to conduct due diligence investigations into the Duke's private income, any more than they could demand the right to examine the financial records of. Of any private individual. Oh, I'm sure. How about telling them, either you do this or else. What's the point in being the King if you can't be the king? Officials are said to have repeatedly asked the Duke whether his income is from legitimate sources, and he has insisted that it is. Oh, the honor system, huh? Because we all know that Prince Andrew is an honorable guy. A guy that does exactly what he tells us he's going to do, right? Right. But last night, former minister and expert in Royal finances Norman Baker said it's extraordinary the palace does not know where the money is coming from. They need to find out urgently and tell us. Prince Andrew stepped away from royal duties in 2019amid the scandal over his links to billionaire pedophile Jeffrey Epstein. So the hits keep coming for Prince Andrew and. And the shit continues to get deeper, yet somehow there is never any accountability. And unfortunately, I don't expect any here either. All of the information that goes with this episode can be found in the description box. What's up, everyone? And welcome back to the Epstein Chronicles. When it comes to Prince Andrew, this man is the gift that keeps on giving when it comes to stupidity. And don't even get me started on him being tone deaf, because he's probably one of the most tone deaf people in the history of the world. I mean, can you imagine this Fotch at the Gotts over here thinking that he's going to have a way back into civil society? Nobody wants you in civil society, Joe Exotic of the Windsor family. In fact, nobody even wants to hear from you. Go and take care of the corgis. Ride your horse and shut your stupid yap. This article was published by the U.S. sun, and the headline Fresh Twist in Andrew's Scandal as New Amazon Drama Trashes Prince Andrew's Claim He Didn't Sleep with Virginia Roberts. This article was authored by Rod McPhee. Not for nothing, but if you're gonna pay out that kind of settlement, you have to think that people are going to believe that you're at least somewhat culpable of what you're being accused of. Nobody on this planet's paying out that kind of money, especially somebody like Prince Andrew who doesn't have that kind of money. Let's not act like Prince Andrew's loaded. If you look up Grifter in the dictionary, you're gonna find a picture of Prince Andrew. Everything this man has, has been given to him. He's earned nothing. In fact, I'd say that he's done nothing with his life worthwhile. I guess you could say him being part of the Falklands war campaign is at least something. But. But besides that, what has he ever done to give back to the English people? You would think somebody who's brought such embarrassment, not only to the royal family, but to the English people themselves, would want to make steps, or at the very least begin to try and make amends for what they have done. But instead, all we've seen from Prince Andrew is more crying, more carrying on, and more nonsense. And that just shows you and tells you exactly who this man is. A bombshell new TV drama on Prince Andrew's disastrous interview with Emily Maitlis suggests that the royal did sleep with a teenage Virginia Roberts. Well, yeah, what else is there to suggest at this point? He's never come out on the record, he's never spoke with the FBI, he's never sat down with law enforcement. So we should just take him at his word. Now, look, I'd be much more inclined to listen to what Prince Andrew has to say if he hasn't been proven over and over and over to be a liar. So if you tell me who you are, believe me when I tell you I'm listening. The Duke of York is portrayed as privately saying, how on earth is a bloke supposed to remember all the women he's betted when quizzed in a very royal scandal? I mean, talk about crass. And even if that's the case, even if you've betted more women than, oh, I don't know, insert rockstar here. Is that really something you want to run around and talk about? Is that something you want to make jokes about as you're being accused of sexual assault? And this is what I mean when I say that this man is probably the most tone deaf man on the planet. He just does not get it. He really doesn't understand that nobody wants to hear him. Nobody cares about his nonsense. Besides the few people that have hung around thinking they're going to gain something out of supporting him. But besides that, the world as a whole, well, we've seen all we need to see from Prince Andrew, and guess what? We're not impressed. It's based on Andrew's car crash 2019 BBC interview in which he Denied going to his favorite London club, Tramp in 2001 with Roberts, who was then 17. Meanwhile, we have people that were there that saw them together. We have the picture. Now, I know they'd like to tell you that that picture is not real. But let's see some proof from everybody that we've heard from who's an expert when it comes to photography. FBI. The man who saw the picture first, the man who took the picture, all of them have said the same thing, that the picture is real. So if the picture is real and they're lying about the picture being fake, well, why would they lie about that? You know why they would lie about it? Because it proves their guilt and that's why they've made such a big deal after of the picture. But if the picture was not real, if all of this was fake, why did Prince Andrew on his name on the monarchy and agree to this settlement if he thought he was innocent? With Andrew Brettler as your lawyer, if that's not the time to go to war, legally speaking, then I don't know if there's ever a time to go to war. Because Andrew Brettler is the best at what he does. And if Andrew Brettler is telling Prince Andrew that he should settle with Virginia Roberts and there's a reason that he's telling him that. The royal, who is played by Michael Sheen, also denies anything physical happened between them. In flashbacks, he's seen dancing in a club with his pedophile pal Jeffrey Epstein, played by Poldark and Midsommar murder star John Hopkins and a young woman who looks like Virginia. Did Prince Andrew think that they were going to forget that part of the story? They're just going to leave that out? Let's just talk about the interview and not what led up to it. There was no way in hell that Prince Andrew was ever going to escape fresh embarrassment here. And as new documentaries come out, as new information comes out, as new people come forward, the embarrassment is only going to grow. And there is only one way out for Prince Andrew and that is speaking to the authorities on the record, under oath. And until he does that, he is going to be under the microscope and. And he is going to be brought up every single time. You talk about Jeffrey Epstein. Pretty much. And guess what? Deservedly so. Later he is seen climbing stairs at night in a house where the billionaire US financier is again present. Well, yeah, he flew across the pond to go visit his buddy Jeffrey Epstein to break up with him. What sort of grown ass man gets on a plane, flies across the Atlantic Ocean to allegedly break up with some dude who is just your friend. Does any of that make sense to anybody out there? Especially any you dudes out there? I know that. I'm not flying across the pond to tell some child molester we ain't friends anymore. How about a quick phone call? And then during that phone call, letting them know, if I ever see you again, it's on site. Because that's what I would say. Listen, bro, I ever see you again, after what I've heard you've been up to, after the evidence I've seen all, I'll slap you directly in the Chiclets. But instead, he comes over for a nice little sleepover, sleeps over on the couch. You know, they hang out, have some popcorn. And I'm sure they were just discussing the weather. I'm sure they were discussing, you know, politics. Sure it had nothing to do with their disgusting activities. In one moment, Andrew looks nervous as he enters a room from which a female's giggling is heard. In another scene, the Duke apparently recollects being in a house where, with Epstein, where young girls are seen wearing skimpy dresses. Well, that was an everyday occurrence. We know that all the girls around Epstein were young. We know that the vast majority of them were being trafficked or abused. And the ones who weren't, well, they were in on it. You cannot have an operation like Jeffrey Epstein was running and not have a lot of people participate in making that machine run. And everybody who was around Epstein, every. Everybody who was profiting from Epstein, they all played their part. When quizzed by Newsnight presenter Maitlis, played by Ruth Wilson, he insists he never saw anything during his time with Epstein that aroused suspicion of sex crimes. No, not at all. Everything was fine here. Everything was a. Okay bros out here molesting up to seven girls a day, but you've never seen anything, huh? Ray Charles would have seen what was going on. Don't tell me you didn't know what was going on. Don't tell me you had no idea what Jeffrey Epstein was up to. He was already a convicted felon for diddling little girls by the time you were hanging out with him. Who are you kidding, bro? Everybody wants to recreate history. Everybody wants to build a storyline that fits their narrative. Well, guess what? One of my favorite pastimes is destroying the narrative of Jeffrey Epstein's friends. As to his alleged dalliances with Virginia, he. He is heard to state, it was nearly 20 years ago. I mean, honestly, at the end of the day, how on Earth, is a bloke supposed to remember all the women he's bedded? Okay, Kurt Cobain bro's out here acting like he's Mick Jagger all of a sudden. Then again, when you're taking trips to Thailand with Jeffrey Epstein, well, who knows what you're up to? And probably he's spot on when he's saying that he doesn't remember all of the women he's been with. He probably didn't even know half of their names. How many of those women that you were with were being trafficked? Prince Andrew, that's the real question. Anybody gonna ask him that? The real Maitless interview was such a disaster that it ended Andrew's career as a serving senior royal. It prompted legal proceedings from American Australian Virginia, who claimed she was trafficked to the Royal by Epstein, who mysteriously died in US jail in 2019 with help from the businessman's former girlfriend. You mean co conspirator, fellow child abuser, general all around scuzzbag, right? Ghislaine Maxwell, because that's what she is. There's no doubt the role that she played and there's no doubt that none of this would have been possible without Ghislaine Maxwell building trust with a lot of these girls. So yeah, Ghislaine Maxwell is exactly where she deserves to be. However, she might have some ground to build upon considering what happened with Scottie David, juror number 50. Now that's a conversation for a different time. But that's going to be creeping up on us before you know it, the whole appeal, the whole situation with Scotty David. So it's going to be very interesting to see which way the appeals court goes. And honestly, I think that Ghislaine Maxwell is going to have a case, but we'll get to that later on. The three part Amazon drama, which comes just five months after the scandal was chronicled in Netflix show Scoop, ends with Andrew wanting to fight the case, which in real life was settled out of court for around 12 million pounds. Once again, I ask you, what innocent man out there is going to let his name get sullied by such horrible allegations when they have one of the best lawyers in the business, they're a prince of the royal blood and they have everything in their favor as far as financially knowing all of that and having all of that as your backstop. Would you be somebody who's out here settling with Virginia if you were innocent? I highly, highly doubt that most of you out there, I'd say the vast majority of you out there would be doing that. Imagine the shame you have to live with for the rest of your life if you're innocent and somebody tags you as some kind of sexual predator. Talk about horrible. So, yeah, that's something worth fighting all the way to the very end for. And Prince Andrew, well, he didn't do that. He says in the show, if you don't let me fight, I will forever look guilty. I should be allowed to clear my name. Well, yeah, here's an idea. Talk to the FBI. He thought that he was going to get a softball interview here with Emily Maitlis, and instead he faced some fastballs as if Randy Johnson was on the mound. So Prince Andrew was caught off guard, thinking that he was walking into a, I don't know, favorable interview, a friendly interview. And. And it certainly wasn't that. But Her Majesty's private secretary, Sir Edward Young, then visits him and in front of ex wife Fergie and daughters Eugenie and Beatrice, humiliates him for even suggesting the idea. Sir Edward, played by Alex Jennings, says, I'm instructed to inform you that after today, this case is closed. A statement is being prepared and will be released along with the announcement of the settlement. I'm not at liberty to divulge the amount of. Her Majesty and the Prince of Wales are concerned to avoid any more negativity as we approach the Queen's Platinum Jubilee. So it was always about the Platinum Jubilee. It was always about the Royal family not looking any stupider than they already looked. It was never about the victims. It was never about the girls. It was never about the fact that Prince Andrew's allegedly diddling people. It's about that you brought shame to the family. And in my opinion, that's a bad look for the Royal family as well. They should care about these victims. They should care about the people who were abused by Jeffrey Epstein. But no, they don't care about any of that. And I know a lot of people out there don't want to hear this, but neither did the Queen. I'm afraid the time for fighting has passed, sir. He goes on to tell Andrew, given the circumstances, the Queen feels it would be a distraction if he attended the celebrations and that the least embarrassing excuse would be Covid. So remember when I told you all that, that this dude didn't have Covid and that they're just saying that so he didn't go to the celebration. Bingo. Wingo. Where do I get my prize at now, how many times have we called this? Time and time again, I'm over here like Nostradamus calling this nonsense. And the reason why I'm able to do that is because they use the same playbook time and time again. And the crazy part is they get away with it with the legacy media. The legacy media is never going to question the royals. Why would they do that? They don't want to lose access. Just ask Amy Robok. Looking and sounding desperate, Andrew says, where do I go? What do I do? Tell me, what do I do? Sir Edward tells the duke, you live with the consequences of your actions, sir. Well, that would be nice if he truly would do that. But he's not going to. He's going to continue to deny it. He's going to continue to try and pass the book, and he's going to continue to try and blame somebody else. But the truth is, there's nobody else to blame but yourself. So, Prince Andrew, you made this bed, buddy. Now enjoy lying in it. All of the information that goes with this episode can be found in the description box, everyone.

[B]

And welcome back to the Epstein Chronicles. This morning we were talking about old dumbass Prince Andrew and the $750,000 he received from the Turkish millionaire. Well, we're getting some more context on that now. And according to reports, the $750,000 that was deposited in Prince Andrew's bank account, well, it was really a wedding gift to Beatrice. Again, another one of these scumbags bringing their children into the mix. You really think this guy was just out of the kindness of his heart? But ponying up 750 million for Beatrice? I mean, 750,000 for Beatrice's birthday. That's a pretty big birthday present, isn't it? I'm talking. That's a fat ass envelope. For those of you who are Italian out there, you know what I mean? There's no way that this dude gave her $750,000 for her birthday. So the real question is, what's the deal with this money? What's Andrew's involvement and will he ever be held accountable? My guess is he won't be. They'll take this stupid ass excuse at face value and they'll run with it like usual.

[A]

It'll all depend.

[B]

On what? What narrative the Queen wants pushed forward. Right, because I guess she's still running

[A]

the whole entire country.

[B]

It's the way it seems. But the fact is this Prince Andrew continues to be an embarrassment. Prince Andrew continues to prove himself a liar. Every single time we hear another story, every single time another situation like this arises, it just paints more of a picture of who Andrew really is. And the fact that anybody would believe that this man is being honest when it comes to the situation with Jeffrey Epstein or Virginia Roberts is just ridiculous at this point. All right, so let's take a look at this article from the Independent and let's see what Andy Gregory has to say about this 750,000 pound gift. Headline mystery. 750,000 pound gift from fraudster to Prince Andrew was a wedding gift to Beatrice. Man, I gotta get me some friends like this $750,000. I mean, 750,000 pound wedding gift. Usually we're talking toasters here, right? You show up, you got an espresso machine, somebody you know gives you $100. 750,000, huh? Must be nice. A gift of £750,000 sent to Prince Andrew on the orders of an alleged fraudster was described as a wedding gift to his daughter Princess Beatrice. A judge has been told, so that's cool. I'm just gonna go get me £750,000 from somebody and then when I'm asked about it, I'll be like, ah, it's a wedding gift. This is a birthday present. My cousin insert guy here decided he wanted to be generous and he gave me 750 grand. I mean, come on man. The Duke and Duchess of York and their daughters Beatrice and Princess Eugenie have all reportedly featured in evidence given in a High Court financial dispute between an elderly Turkish woman and the former Goldman Sachs banker.

[A]

And again, here we are, right?

[B]

The financial sector, Goldman Sachs. Every single time we have an issue such as this or, or any of the people around Prince Andrew or Jeffrey Epstein or Ghislaine Maxwell, you can guarantee that some scumbag banker is not far behind all of these dudes in the financial sector, I'm convinced of it. All of them are up to no good and none of them have our welfare at the forefront. You mean to tell me that none of these banks could set up a division the way they have a division set up for their super rich clients? They can't set up a division to help people who might not have those kinds of resources. I mean, come on man, they could, but they don't want to. They'd prefer to keep you a slave to debt. Nebahot is Bellon, the seven. The 77 year old wife of a former politician jailed in Turkey on charges said to be politically motivated is suing businessman Selman Turk over nearly £40 million she alleges went missing when he acted as her financial advisor while she fled her homeland. And like we said this morning, I mean, what kind of scoundrel do you have to be to take advantage of a woman who is fleeing her homeland after her husband gets, you know, swooped up in these politically motivated raids. Let's call them what they are. There was no a coup attempt in Turkey that was all set up by Erdogan to solidify his power. Anyone who pays attention to the geopolitical situation in that region of the world will tell you there is all kinds of questions if that was a actual coup or not. And frankly, I'm certainly not sold. It is the hallmark of a dictator to solidify their power, to solidify their reign. And, and while Erdogan is packaged in a way that the west is accepted, is accepting of him, let's be honest, he is another man who has his own desires, his own motivations. In an ongoing court case, Ms. Isbellen alleges that the London based former banker breached fiduciary obligations he owed to her and, and advance claims and deceit while supposedly helping remove her assets out of Turkey. A judge overseeing the dispute has been told that substantial sums were paid to Andrew and his ex wife, Sarah Ferguson. Now let me ask you a question. Why would Fergie be involved at all here? Why would Fergie get any of this money from a woman who's on the run and looking for safe harbor in a political storm? Where does, where does Fergie fit in? And where does Prince Andrew even fit in? Why would this guy be involved at all trying to give this lady safe harbor? It doesn't make sense. Wouldn't you go to the British Home Office and apply for asylum or whatever it is? But no, not when you're rich, right?

[A]

That's for us.

[B]

That's for the rest of us. For these people who are operating on a different level, what they do is they just go directly to a royal or to some politician they've donated to and then they get moved right to the front of the line. Go ahead and call your congressman though, or call your senator and see how quickly you're talking to a staffer or you're just being ignored. Ms. Isbelin said police had seized her previous passport and that Mr. Turk had obtained her a new passport through connections with Turkish authorities with the Duke also allegedly paid £750,000 for. For assistance he provided in relation to Ms. Isbillins passport. So they'll say, oh no, this was just a gift to the Duke. This is for his daughter's birthday, when in reality we know there's something more going on here. Now the question Is like usual. Can you prove it? Because remember, folks, it's not what we

[A]

know, it's what we can prove.

[B]

In her affidavit, she said that in November 2019, she. She authorized a bank transfer of £750,000 to the Duke. Mr. Turk told me that he received help from the Duke of York to show or send the picture of my old passport to Turkey, and that this service would normally be worth £2 million, but it would cost less if we made the payment by way of a gift. The affidavit said. Just another way to get around it, right? Let's find a way to avoid taxes. Let's find a way to avoid doing things the proper way, like the common every day average Eddie and Edith in England have to do it. So we'll just, you know, go around that.

[A]

We'll go around all of the, you

[B]

know, the suspicious activity reports, Title 31, and we'll just get right down to it, won't we? I did not understand the nature of the services received then and have also difficulty of explaining it now. I have seen an email from Mr. Turk explaining that this transfer was a wedding gift to Princess Beatrice, owing to the close connection between our families. This email is entirely false.

[A]

Oh, boy.

[B]

This is big problems for Prince Andrew, right? And the fact, again, that his family is being dragged into this, it just tells you everything you need to know about this guy. Earlier this morning, when we were talking about this, I said the same thing, that this man is an absolute embarrassment to the family. Every single time a story pops up, none of them are ever good. All he does is bring negative attention to the Royal family. So why in the hell would they want to deal with this guy? Why would they want him around? Why would they want him hanging out

[A]

with the rest of the Royal family?

[B]

Why would they want him at the forefront? Ms. Isbellin's solicitor, Jonathan Tickner, told the Daily Telegraph that transcripts have since been obtained of telephone conversations between Mr. Turk, Ms. Isbellin's bank and Prince Andrew's private

[A]

office,

[B]

in which the claim the money was a gift for Beatrice, who had gotten engaged two months earlier, was allegedly repeated. So how. How can he think that this is not going to eventually come out? You're using your daughter once again. And I'd like to just point out that he also tried to use his daughter as an excuse for why he couldn't be with Virginia at the stated time. So we see a pattern here, right? A man who has no excuses, trying to formulate one and create one, but doing it in a way that is an absolute embarrassment to anyone who was a real man. The idea, you fucking clown, is to keep your family out of stuff like this, not drag them into it with you. Purported transcripts of two calls on November 14th of 2019, the day Andrews infamous Newsnight interview published in the Daily Mail appear to show a bank representative separately asking Mr. Turk and Andrew's office what the money was for. And on both occasions being told it was believed to be a wedding gift. Again, a £750,000 wedding gift from some basically some random Turkish businessman. And we're supposed to believe that that's on the up and up, huh?

[A]

Boy, I can't wait till I get

[B]

myself a nice £750,000 wedding gift. Excuse me, we passed that. There is reported to be no suggestion in court documents that Beatrice was aware of the conversations. No, probably not. She was probably being used by her father once again. And we saw it with the excuse about the Pizza Express, right? Oh, I was at Pizza Express.

[A]

Ha ha, ha, ha ha.

[B]

Yeah, right, bro. Everything you have said this whole entire time, and at least in my opinion, seems to be straight bullshit. According to both newspapers, Ms. Isbellin has told the court she now believes the payment was connected to Mr. Turk's appearance at the Duke's Dragon's Den esque competition held at St. James palace, known as Pitch palace, just days prior to the alleged payment. The duke reportedly handed Mr. Turk an award at the event. But. But the Mail reported that the Royal did not cast a vote in the award. So, look, it's obvious what happened here, right? They got together, had a little bit of a conversation. The Duke had an in here, figured, hey, look, I can make myself a few more bucks. Why not? A document outlining Ms. Isblin's case said the Duke had subsequently returned the £750,000 of. So that makes it all better, right? He returned it.

[A]

So it's all good.

[B]

Every criminal in the world who's involved in financial malfeasance, if they just return the money, it's all good. Of course it's not. Why did you accept the money in the first place? And do you expect us to believe that you're this stupid? And if you are, then you have no place as far as a working Royal or coming back into the public life. Time for you to kick rocks, homie. Walmart door greeter. According to the Telegraph, Mr. Tickner also told the court that bank statements obtained by his legal team show that Eugenie was paid £25,000, allegedly from Mrs. Isbelin's funds over the course of two consecutive days with £15,000 sent from Mr. Turk's account with the reference birthday gift. Imagine the life of luxury and privilege.

[A]

And not only that.

[B]

To top it off, now you're getting money. Stolen money given to you as if you don't have enough. As if you aren't operating from a place of plenty to begin with. In a statement given to the paper, Eugenie said she understood the money to be gifts from a long standing family friend to assist with the cost of a surprise party for her mother's 60th birthday. And that she knows neither Ms. Ibelin nor nor Mr. Turk nor any other details of the claim made by Ms. Isbelin's lawyers. So the Queen's family needs a surprise gift of £15,000 to host a birthday party. Things are rough over there, huh? Everyone's eating, you know, top ramen and maybe a little Spam when they can get their hands on it over at the Palace. Can't come up with £15,000 for a 60th birthday party, huh? Interesting. She also alleged to have received £250,000, which she reportedly claims she was owed by renewable energy firm Pegasus Group holdings for her role as brand ambassador. According to the Telegraph, Eugenia stressed she had no idea that the money from Mr. Turk was anything other than entirely respectable and is reported to be distraught at the thought of of her daughters being unwittingly dragged into the case. Oh, wa, wa, really? Here's an idea. Stop accepting money from scumbags. You're so rich as it is you need money from other people. And if so, maybe you should try getting a job. You know that J O B thing. Neither Beatrice nor Eugenie are believed to have had any knowledge of their parents dealings with Mr. Turkish, nor knowingly corresponded with him in any way. The paper reported a number of preliminary rulings in the case have been published. Deputy High Court Judge David Halpern said in a ruling that A lawyer representing Ms. Isbellon told him in an affidavit that information had emerged to show evidence given by Mr. Turk was misleading. He said Mr. Tickner told him evidence showed money was used for purposes of unconnected with Ms. Isbelin. For example, substantial sums were paid to Prince Andrew, Duke of York, and to Sarah, Duchess of York. Boy, oh boy, these people are the ultimate grifters, aren't they? They have zero shame. They've accepted money from some of the scummiest people on earth. And let's not forget their close relationship with the scumbag Elaine Maxwell on top of it. So Prince Andrew got himself quite the shit sandwich here, folks, and he's gonna

[A]

have to take a bite.

[B]

Judge Halpern said. Barrister Dan McCourt Fritz, who is leading Ms. Isbelin's legal team, told him the total sums which his client claims were misappropriated amount of 50 million or 38 million pounds. Mr. Turk has provided explanations for approximately two thirds of these sums, most of which had been allegedly spent on professional or other fees or lost. And bad investments. The judge added in his ruling. No explanation at all has been given for the remaining one third. Yeah, bad investments. Investing in Prince Andrew is a bad investment, my friend. What did you think you were buying investing in this guy? You might as well have went outside and had a big bonfire, set up your cell phone and recorded it for YouTube and just burned all that money. A statement of claim drawn up by Mrs. Bellen's lawyers said in or around November 2019, Mr. Turk told Mrs. Bellen that she needed to make a purported gift of £750,000 to his Royal Highness Duke of York by way of payment for assistance that he told her the

[A]

Duke of York had provided in relation

[B]

to Ms. Isbellon's Turkish passport. So this dude and Prince Andrew are out here manipulating his powerful position, right? And they're like, look, we'll make a couple of bucks by just throwing Andrew's name into the mix. The representation that Mrs. Bellen needed to make a gift to the Duke of York in connection with her passport or for any other purpose was false, and Mr. Turk made it dishonestly, knowing it to be false and intending Ms. Isbelin to rely on it, the lawyers added. Ms. Isbellen authorized a transfer of £750,000 on the 15th of November of 2019, they continued, Mrs. Bellen has now received £750,000 from the Duke of York, meaning he gave the money back. Right, but why did you take it in the first place? What other schemes and plots are you up to over there, clown prince Mr. Tickner, head of fraud and commercial disputes at law firm Peters and Peters, said in a statement on Friday that Ms. Isbellin had trusted Mr. Turk to help her through extremely difficult circumstances. The court documents and decisions given in her case to date speak for themselves. So it looks like the typical case of fraud here, right? And obviously Prince Andrew thinks that he has himself insulated enough where he won't get clipped here. But again, it is the optics. What does the optics show you? And to me, it paints a very clear picture that Prince Andrew is once again being exposed as a fraudulent. All right, folks, that will do it for the evening update.
