Stephen Colbert Hails Arrest of Ex-Prince Andrew  With a Pointed Jab at Trump
"Stephen Colbert opened The Late Show Thursday with applause for British authorities after Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, formerly Prince Andrew, was arrested on suspicion of misconduct in public office related to an investigation into his ties to Jeffrey Epstein. Mountbatten-Windsor was detained by U.K. police earlier Thursday morning in connection with alleged misconduct in public office reportedly linked to emails in the Justice Department's Epstein files release that suggest he sent trade reports to Epstein in 2010."
"The late-night host used the development to pivot to the president, mocking his inaugural Board of Peace launch, which he said is kind of like the UN except instead of passing binding resolutions, you pass a greasy bag of money to Donald Trump. He followed: So the board works kind of like a strip club. Cash only, and Donald Trump will never leave."
Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, formerly Prince Andrew, was arrested by U.K. police on suspicion of misconduct in public office linked to emails in the Justice Department's Epstein files that reportedly show he sent trade reports to Jeffrey Epstein in 2010. The arrest is described as unrelated to longstanding sexual misconduct allegations, which he has denied. Stephen Colbert applauded British authorities, mocked Mountbatten-Windsor's appearance, contrasted British and American justice, and used the story to ridicule President Donald Trump, comparing his Board of Peace launch to handing a greasy bag of money and likening it to a strip club.
