When Prince Harry and Meghan Markle sensationally revealed they were quitting as working royals, they said they would "work to become financially independent". And the latest royal accounts show that they've achieved this goal as it has emerged his Prince Charles is no longer funding the pair. Charles’s bill for his sons and their families no longer lists the Sussexes in the accounts. And a source close to the Prince of Wales said Harry and Meghan "should be congratulated in achieving their goal". To become financially independent, the couple has raked in millions from the private sector - despite using their newfound roles to routinely slam the royal family in global television interviews.

And more interestingly, how do they spend it?

Chappie Stars Discuss Robot Fights, Animated Butlers and Mullets
At a press conference for media who had just watched a screening of Neill Blomkamp's movie Chappie , some bizarre questions were traded on what would make an ideal robot, the art of creating the most stereotypical Australian character, and which comic book hero or robot would win in a fight. Why do themes like artificial intelligence keep resonating with humanity as we advance? Neill Blomkamp: My point of view on AI, which ties into the nature for humans constantly looking into the reasons for why we exist and why consciousness exists, changed during the making of Chappie . I'm not actually completely sure that humans are going to be capable of giving birth to AI in the way that films fictionalize it. You have weak artificial intelligence which is like a robot or computer system that follows a list of protocols that are yes, no answers that can be as complex as you want. And then you have strong AI, which is basically like a human, something that can think up a thought … [Read more...] about Chappie Stars Discuss Robot Fights, Animated Butlers and Mullets
Diana would be ‘mortified’ by William and Harry’s ’emotional tangle’, says author
The breakdown of Prince William and Prince Harry's relationship has played out very publicly on the world's stage following constant comments made about the state of their bond. The rumours of their rift were seemingly confirmed back in 2019 during Prince Harry and Meghan's tour of South Africa. Harry told journalist Tom Bradby: "We’re brothers, we’ll always be brothers. We’re certainly on different paths at the moment. But I will always be there for him, as I know he’ll always be there for me.” A further string of comments about their failing relationship suggests a reconciliation is far from being achieved. Now a well-known royal expert has waded in with his opinion on what Diana, Princess of Wales would think of her sons fallout. Following the release of his 25th book 'The Queen', Diana's biographer, Andrew Morton, spoke to The Mirror's podcast, Pod Save the Queen , about William and Harry and how their mother would be "mortified" by what has happened between them. … [Read more...] about Diana would be ‘mortified’ by William and Harry’s ’emotional tangle’, says author

close Video Ending Remain in Mexico a huge loss for the American public: National Border Patrol Council Art Del Cueto discusses the Supreme Court ruling that allows the Biden administration to roll back Trump's Remain in Mexico policy. NEW You can now listen to Fox News articles! Republicans and immigration hawks on Thursday reacted gloomily to the Supreme Court ruling that the Biden administration can terminate the Trump-era "Remain-in-Mexico" policy -- fearing that the ongoing crisis at the southern border will only worsen as a result. "I am disappointed in SCOTUS allowing Biden to dissolve the Remain-in-Mexico program, one of our last & best protections against the Dems’ border crisis," Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton said in response to the ruling. SUPREME COURT HANDS BIDEN VICTORY, ALLOWS END TO ‘REMAIN IN MEXICO’ POLICY The Supreme Court, in its 5-4 ruling, said that the Department of Homeland Security could … [Read more...] about Republicans, hawks fear border crisis will get worse after SCOTUS ‘Remain-in-Mexico’ ruling
SCOTUS just dealt a major blow to the green Left—and a major win for democracy | Opinion
The Supreme Court has handed down another win for skeptics of progressive overreach. On Thursday , the Supreme Court ruled that the Environmental Protection Agency does not have the authority to set national energy policy and regulate carbon emissions from power plants. The ruling was a blow to the Biden Administration, which has pursued an aggressive clean energy agenda. But it was a win for democracy—as well as for a politically sustainable approach to climate change. You won't hear much about that in the mainstream press. Expect instead an endless litany of hysteria about our dying planet and the right-wing plot to accelerate the end of the natural world. "Run out of words to describe this court, but, among other things, it's now a threat to the planet," tweeted MSNBC host Chris Hayes in a typical missive. Yet the issue here is not really environmental; it's fundamentally political. The new Court may be too doctrinaire in its states' rights approach, as we have seen in the … [Read more...] about SCOTUS just dealt a major blow to the green Left—and a major win for democracy | Opinion
