Epstein files appear to show Andrew asking Ghislaine Maxwell for ‘inappropriate friends’
Epstein files appear to show Andrew asking Ghislaine Maxwell for ‘inappropriate friends’
Documents give further insight into former royal’s ties to sex offender and raise fresh questions for Donald Trump
Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor asked Jeffrey Epstein’s fixer Ghislaine Maxwell to arrange meetings with “inappropriate friends” while she sought “friendly and discreet and fun” girls on his behalf, the latest documents from the Epstein files appear to show.
The largest release yet of files concerning the financier and convicted child sex offender – which also raise fresh questions for the US president, Donald Trump – include emails in the name of “A” exchanging detailed messages with Maxwell that appeared to identify the author as Andrew.
Emails recording that Britain’s Metropolitan police contacted the FBI last month to inquire whether there were any ongoing investigations related to the disgraced former prince’s association with Epstein.
Emails showing US lawyers claiming “various factual inaccuracies” in a statement provided on Andrew’s behalf during their investigation of Epstein.
Multiple references to Donald Trump, including a claim by a senior US attorney that Trump was on a flight in the 1990s with Epstein and a 20-year-old woman. There is no indication of whether the woman was a victim of any crime, and Trump has consistently denied wrongdoing.
Files featuring redactions that were found to be removable through Photoshop techniques or simply highlighting text to paste into a word processing file. Continue reading...

The general strike in Portugal yesterday was massive. Not only was it supported by the majority of people in Portugal, it seems that the majority of workers were actually involved in striking. The Metro in Lisbon was completely shut down, schools, universities, Super Bock in Porto!
