Seeing the fall from grace that Britain’s Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor has faced, has rattled the entirety of America’s most powerful men (both mentioned or redacted) within the Epstein Files and the whole thing has fallen into chaos.

News about the crisis has been shared as part of a report by RadarOnline.

According to their findings and the claims by a senior congressional aide, “there is real anxiety and pure panic in certain circles that the British move could embolden U.S. prosecutors. People who once assumed the storm had passed are suddenly not so sure.”

Another claim comes by a federal prosecutor who wishes to remain anonymous and in their own words, “when a member of the British royal family is arrested, it resets expectations. It signals that status is not a shield. That has implications for anyone in America who had dealings with Epstein and believed the matter was effectively closed.”

The outlet even quotes a lobbiest who has exposed that the entire has sent shudders down all sides, both Republican and Democrat because “phones are ringing. Lawyers are being consulted. The fear is not abstract - it is about subpoenas, grand juries, and reputational collapse. Some of the world's most powerful figures are basically poised for police to pounce on them.”
