The Rest of The Story:
The Heritage Foundation’s lawsuit challenges whether Prince Harry’s visa application was handled lawfully, given his admitted drug use.
In his memoir ‘Spare’, Harry detailed past drug use, including cocaine and psychedelic mushrooms.
Under U.S. law, such admissions could be grounds for denying a visa.
The legal dispute centers around whether the Biden administration granted Harry preferential treatment when he relocated to California after stepping back from royal duties.
While DHS argues that immigration records are private, the federal judge’s recent request for redaction details suggests that some documents could eventually be released.
Trump’s remarks, made in an interview with the New York Post, reflect his ongoing disdain for Meghan Markle.
He has previously accused her of being manipulative and criticized her for making negative comments about him during his presidency.
NEW: Trump rules out deporting Prince Harry from the United States because he’s “got enough problems with his wife,” according to the New York Post.
The comment comes as Harry is being accused of concealing his past illegal drug use.

Commentary:
We completely agree with President Trump on this one.
There are much bigger issues facing the United States than Prince Harry’s visa status.

The border crisis, inflation, and the economy should be the focus, not whether some pampered prince checked the wrong box on a form.
That said, Meghan Markle is wretched.
She has done nothing but sow division between Harry and his family, and it is clear she wields far too much influence over him.
We can’t help but feel sorry for Harry—he’s been completely dominated by his wife’s obsession with playing the victim.
Trump is right to leave him be, but it’s hard not to shake our heads at the mess he’s made of his life.
The Bottom Line:
Prince Harry’s immigration battle is far from over, with a judge now considering whether his records should be made public.
Trump’s decision not to pursue deportation doesn’t end the controversy, as conservative groups continue pushing for full disclosure.
Meanwhile, his comments about Meghan Markle reinforce his longstanding criticism of the couple.
