You in must be 21 to enter. Now Prince Harry may be back in England. In fact, lurking somewhere around the Cotswars we are led to believe where we he exactly is. I don't think that's not due that because we're going to get drawn for that. Anyway, now Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are well truly back in the United Kingdom for now. Who knows for how long, but they are back. Now one man who was causing some difficulty for Prince Harry during his short stay in the United States was now a gardener of the Heritage Foundation who was leading the charge to have the exact

reasons that Prince Harry was given a USBs. Despite his confessed drug use in the past published in a long F.O.I. battle with the United States government, it was now, Gardner, he is with me today. Now where do we get to in all of that? And do you suspect that one of the reasons that Prince Harry and Meghan Markle decided to upstick some back to the United Kingdom because it was about to be revealed, they may have been some rules bent to allow them to even be in the United States in the first place? Well, there's a great question, Harry, and our legal case actually continues. And as we speak, the State Department is reviewing no less than 289 documents relating to Prince Harry's visa application. It's close to 2500 pages. They already reviewed 18 initial documents they declined actually to release those as of now. But October 13th, we will get an update from the State Department with regard to the review of other documents. And we will have to see what is revealed by the State Department on October 13th.

But this legal action, the most high profile US-related immigration case in decades continues, Harry. In fact, that Harry and Meghan have run off back to the UK, doesn't make any difference in terms of our legal action moving forward. And I'm in no doubt, Harry, that our legal action may have played some role in the rather speedy, sudden exit of Harry and Meghan over to the UK. In fact, the King was only given about 20 days notice, frankly, with regard to the decision to return to the UK. It's all very sudden. And it's certainly my view that our legal action may have played a part in Harry's departure. After all, if it is revealed that Prince Harry lied on his US immigration application, then he would face up to five years in a federal prison or deportation or both.

So this takes certainly very high for Prince Harry. And of course, if it subsequently revealed that Harry lied, even though he is in the UK, it would mean that he would not be allowed back into the United States. And so there are definitely further implications for Harry. I'm regardless of whether or not he has left US sort of. There are still big implications for the future of Prince Harry from this legal action. Two or an eighty-nine different documents resulting on one guy's visa would suggest that they had an unusual level of paperwork around his visa, which would imply, in my view, my journalistic twitching would suggest that actually it's more likely that strings were pulled rather than he lied. Yeah, we simply do not know exactly what happened with regard to whether or not there was in a political influence applied to get him through after his extensive use of illegal

drugs. Normally, individuals are barred from entering the United States on a visa if they put on their immigration form that they have taken in illegal drugs. The alternative is the possibility of the Harry lied on his application, which would be a federal criminal offense. But either way, we're talking about a huge number of documents relating to his application, suggesting that there was a lot of complication with regard to his application to the United States. It's very unusual to have hundreds and hundreds of documents relating to an immigration application. We'll just have to see exactly what is contained in his immigration files. And we're simply calling for the release of those documents to the American people so they can judge for themselves. Simply a noble pursuit. Just just, nothing to hide, nothing to fear. Now, Governor of Heritage Foundation always fascinating. Come back and see us soon.

When you see those documents finally, we hope. For the first time ever, Yamavar Resort and Casino at San Manuel is giving away a new Rolex watch for every club Serrano Card dear.
