 Prince Harry ‘in tears’ after King Charles bestows military honor on Prince William: ‘The gloves are off’
By Social Links for Andrew Court
Published May 11, 2024, 12:26 p.m. ET

Prince Harry was reduced to tears after learning King Charles had bestowed a new honor upon Prince William, a royal expert claims.

On Tuesday, Buckingham Palace announced that William, 41, will be made colonel-in-chief of the Army Air Corps – despite Prince Harry, 39, having personally served with the unit in Afghanistan.

The announcement appeared timed to inflict maximum pain on Harry, coming on the same day that he returned to London to celebrate the 10th anniversary of the Invictus Games.

“King Charles’ announcement… is a real kick in the teeth for the son who always felt marginalized and underrated,” royal expert Tom Quinn told The Mirror on Saturday. “He is said to have been in tears when he heard”.

“What makes it much worse is that the role is being given to the very man who Harry sees as the cause of so many of his problems – his brother.”

Quinn claimed that the announcement was “deliberately” made while Harry was in the UK to show that the king’s younger son “is no longer welcome.”

“They [the royal family] have decided the gloves are off and that Harry needs to realize that when you betray the family, you don’t just escape the things you hated doing as a working royal,” the expert asserted. “You also lose the things you loved.”

“Harry cannot fail to get the message,” Quinn continued. “His last few ties to his old life are being cut and he is being set adrift, permanently.”

Sacramento State acquiesces to anti-Israel protesters, changes university policy

California State University, Sacramento ended disruptive protests on its campus this week by working with students to create new policies on investment ostensibly aimed at Israel.

Protests ended on Wednesday after the school updated its policies to state that the university "directs its auxiliaries [...] to investigate socially responsible investment strategies which include not having direct investments in corporations and funds that profit from genocide, ethnic cleansing, and activities that violate fundamental human rights."

Local representatives of Students for Justice in Palestine celebrated the change as a major victory for their cause, thanking University President Luke Wood for facilitating dialogues since protests began last month.

“Being a part of the student intifada is an honor,” said a SJP organizer speaking at the Wednesday press conference. “No student wants their tuition to ever go toward ethnic cleansing or genocide of anyone. Especially when you are Palestinian, you are forced into a terrible position of being complicit in the genocide of your own people.

Trump kills rumors about considering Haley for VP

Rumors that former South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley and former President Donald Trump could be getting closer to burying the hatchet since the end of the brutal 2024 Republican primary were shot down almost as soon as they began.

Trump denied this in a Truth Social post just a few hours after it was released, saying Haley “is not under consideration for the V.P. slot, but I wish her well! DJT.”

Haley was reported to be under “active consideration” by Trump to be his vice president. The South Carolina politician has yet to endorse Trump for the presidency since dropping out of the primary in March after losing critical states on Super Tuesday.

It has long been believed that Trump is interested in a female running mate — he had Rep. Elise Stefanik (R-NY), former centrist Democrat turned independent Tulsi Gabbard, and South Dakota Gov. Kristi Noem (R-SD) on his shortlist at one point.

But Haley appeared to have taken herself out of contention, given Trump’s comments before the New Hampshire primary in January, and their combative relationship.

“She is OK, but she is not presidential timber,” Trump said. “And when I say that, that probably means she is not going to be chosen as the vice president.”

Biden campaign steps up efforts to convince older voters to abandon Trump

President Joe Biden’s campaign is escalating its outreach to senior citizens in a maneuver to flip a voting group that usually votes Republican.

Those outreach efforts include bingo games organized by volunteers in swing states and running ads during shows favored by older voters like the Price is Right.

Voters 65 and older have historically supported Republicans in the last two election cycles, but former President Donald Trump saw older voters’ support decrease from 2016 to 2020. A recent poll indicated Biden, who is four years older than Trump at 81, is leading Trump among older voters, 51% to 42%.

Voters 65 and older comprised 30.4% of the electorate in 2022. It’s also a demographic known to be more likely to vote.

“It’s a major turning point,” Biden pollster Celinda Lake told Bloomberg. “It’s really an inverse of the previous patterns, where Democrats traditionally do better with younger voters and have had trouble with seniors.”

Part of that shift may be because of Trump’s inconsistent messaging on Social Security or Medicare, which senior voters value. He said in March that “there’s a lot you can do in terms of entitlements, in terms of cutting,” before backtracking to say he would never “jeopardize or hurt Social Security and Medicare.”

Voters polled in seven swing-states favored Biden over Trump 45% to 39% for Social Security and Medicare’s preservation.

Of course they're being more emboldened.  America has become the land of milk and honey for every crook, rapist, murderer, and thief in the world.  Anyone who lives in a sanctuary city or state had better keep alert.  A criminal is waiting to meet you, your money, and your property. 888blackhat
