yay...Karma...

Fuck yeah, and on his birthday too 😂

@newsguyusa This is still a sideshow to distract from Trump.

@newsguyusa Alleged assaults on women get "nothing to see here" but cheating his rich and powerful chums has consequences.

@newsguyusa Justice is coming!

“Let me state clearly: the law must take its course,” says King Charles of his brother’s arrest. “As this process continues, it would not be right for me to comment further on this matter. Meanwhile, my family and I will continue in our duty and service to you all."

@newsguyusa Nothing to see here …. Move along now

@newsguyusa

The audacity to call it "duty and service" when they live in their castles and live a life full of privilege and money.

@newsguyusa I think we all know this is just a distraction from the Epstein files. His brother will at most have to pay a fine. He and others will never face prosecution for pedo island.

@newsguyusa Now do Trump!

While we pay them loads of money. Abolish the Monarchy

@newsguyusa

Arresting him on his birthday is just merely a coincidence.

Andrew is the first senior British royal arrested since 1646. It did not end well for King Charles I.

Wait…Andrew is…a Catholic??!

"The most interesting thing about King Charles the First is that he was 5 foot 6 inches tall at the start of his reign, but only 4 foot 8 inches tall at the end of it....because of....

Oliver Cromwell, Lord Protector of England....."

Sorry. Compulsive behaviour.

@newsguyusa I recall how I learned about this aspect of British history: Charles the first got it worst. I doubt Andrew will suffer the same fate.

@newsguyusa I saw that this morning. I was surprised they didn't have some dodge to avoid accountability, like all governments.

Then I thought: Wow. An ex-royal. Where are the arrests in the USA? I get Trump can't be arrested, since he's a Sovereign now; but what about all the others?

It sure seems like every other country are holding people responsible. Except the USA. Which sends a signal about corruption and lawlessness. Would you trust a country like that? Depend on it for security?
