Summary

Tonight, we’re diving into the explosive new developments in the Epstein file saga. Prince Andrew was arrested over his ties to Jeffrey Epstein, and around the world, powerful figures connected to Epstein are beginning to face real consequences. But the same cannot be said for those here in the United States? Donald Trump’s name appears in the files more than 38,000 times, yet there is no accountability. Why does justice seem to move everywhere but here? Will Prince Andrew cooperate? Could more names be exposed? Will anyone in MAGA world ever face consequences? And most importantly, will the victims finally see justice? We’re joined by Congresswoman Yassamin Ansari to break down what’s happening globally, what’s stalled domestically, and what could come next. 🍋 This episode is brought to you by Shopify.

Good evening. Welcome to Lemon Live at 5. Thank you so much for joining us on a big breaking news day.

0:23.1

There are developments in the breaking news that we brought to you this morning about the shocking,

0:29.1

I guess arrest. I don't know if I would call it shocking. I guess some folks thought that it was a

0:33.4

possibility, but perhaps it happening was a shock to the system still, considering that this is a

0:40.3

member, a former member of the royal family, the brother of the king of England, the son of the former queen, the departed queen of England.

0:51.3

So Andrew, Prince Andrew, or formerly Prince Andrew, was arrested this morning and was kept in custody all day for questioning. He was seen leaving. We have a photo of him, leaving the police station, the police investigation in the backseat of a vehicle that was about an hour or two ago.

1:12.6

And so that is the former Prince Andrew there.

1:16.6

The stunning development marks the first arrest of a member of the royal family in centuries

One email in the latest U.S. release appears to show him forwarding Epstein a report of his special advisor from his special advisor about the then-princes

2:20.3

visit to Southeast Asia. So he is denied wrongdoing in that. But I want to bring in now

2:25.8

someone who can speak to all of this and is a wealth of knowledge and information, interviewing

2:31.8

folks, seeing some of the files. And that is Yasimine Ansari. Representative

2:37.0

Yasimine Ansari, she has served Arizona's third congressional district since 2025.

2:41.2

Representative, thank you so much.

2:43.5
