The family of late Prince Andrew sex abuse accuser Virginia Giuffre celebrated the scandal-scarred royal’s decision Friday to surrender his Duke of York title as “vindication for our sister and survivors everywhere” — while demanding his prince title gets stripped too. “This is not just a victory for her, but for every single survivor of the horrific crimes perpetrated by [Jeffrey] Epstein and his co-conspirators,” said loved ones of Giuffre, who died by suicide earlier this year. Andrew announced he was giving up the designation after new accusations surrounding his connection to late pedophile Jeffrey Epstein emerged this week. Giuffre, pictured here…

Is the Garden State is moving to the right after decades of being a Democratic bastion? From the high cost of living — energy bills, insurance, and housing — to the migrant crisis, New Jersey voters are voicing their concerns about the status quo in the historically reliable blue state ahead of the gubernatorial election on Tuesday, Nov. 4. One voter, a social worker named Susan, called out resources going to illegal immigrants instead of her clients and legal citizens. “We’re not an ATM for every criminal and every person with their hand out in the world,” she told The…

Pro-Palestinian groups are accused of funding a “pay for slay” program which donated $300 million to the families of terrorists in a new lawsuit, The Post has learned. Terrorists convicted of atrocities and assassins are profiting from the scheme’s blood money, according to the legal filing in Manhattan federal court. The action has been brought by Americans who have lost family members in terrorist attacks and is against the Palestinian Liberation Organization, an international group, and the Palestinian Authority, located on the West Bank and headed by Mahmoud Abbas. The lawsuit claims last year the PA Martyrs’ Fund gave out…

I do hot yoga three to four days a week, and being a dog mom and NYC native, I’m naturally an avid “hot girl walker,” too. I’ve tried every workout brand under the sun, but the only one I keep coming back to (and that can withstand all the sweatiness of the 100-degree yoga studio) is Beyond Yoga. Namely, the combo I’ve been obsessing over: the Spacedye Practice Pant paired with the Spacedye Slim Racerback Cropped…

Maryanne feels blah. The news gets her down. Her work role has shifted slightly, and is now a bit busier and less interesting. Her dad recently had to stop driving, and watching him lose some independence and spark is sad. She’s not depressed, but her zest to grow and improve feels distant. It’s been 10 years since she completed a Master’s on top of full-time work, and she wonders where that energy and ambition came from. That person seems far away now. Like many of us, Maryanne has internalized a specific model of growth, that’s about setting a clear goal,…

President Trump on Friday welcomed Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky to the White House for a third time to discuss ending his country’s war against Russia. The Ukrainian leader and his top officials have been lobbying Trump to provide long-range Tomahawk missiles, which would enable strikes against military and energy targets deep inside Russia. The meeting comes a day after Trump spoke with Russian President Vladimir Putin. The two leaders announced they would meet soon in Hungary to discuss peace. Earlier on Friday, former national security adviser John Bolton pleaded not guilty to 18 federal charges in his first federal court…

Hamas defended the gruesome public executions it carried out against Palestinians earlier this week as the terrorist group says it has no plans to lay down its arms — throwing a massive wrench in the already tense peace negotiations with Israel. Hamas politburo member Mohammed Nazzal told Reuters that “exceptional measures” had to be taken when it carried out public killings in Gaza on Monday, which drew widespread criticism for its extreme violence. He claimed that those executed were criminals guilty of murder. Nazzal also refused to commit to Hamas disarming itself, which Israel has demanded as part of a…

When tech companies move in, rents have a bad habit of going up. Recently booming Austin, Texas has managed to buck that trend.  Besides a thriving live music scene, outdoor attractions, world-famous brisket and low taxes, the Lone Star State’s keeping-it-weird capital has something else surprising to brag about — low rents. Austin has supplanted Oklahoma City as the country’s most affordable rental market. 4kclips – stock.adobe.com Rents are falling, largely thanks to an increased housing supply. Getty Images That’s right — after a sustained period of significant growth, Austin has managed to become country’s most affordable rental market, according to…

Alien: Earth has a bit of a rock and roll spirit to it. In usual Noah Hawley fashion, the series goes by the beat of its own drum, even when it’s another chapter of a franchise. It’s packed with action, horror, and thematics, all tied up in a bow at the end by classic rock – courtesy of music supervisor Maggie Phillips.  The Emmy nominee and Hawley worked together before on Fargo and Legion. Phillips is also the music supervisor for the upcoming (and delightful) Queens of the Dead. For every episode of Alien: Earth, she leaves fans on a…

Growing up, putting together a Christmas list doubled as making a memory. For some, it would be circling items in catalogues from all your favorite shops. Others would head to stores with parents in tow, picking out your toys and counting down the days until they’re finally yours. Many would even write a physical list, and mail it off to Santa himself. But, in the digital era, Christmas lists, like many things, have changed. Have they lost their magic? Aussie mom Nat, on TikTok as @nats_chatss, took to the app this week to share a relatable struggle – waiting on what she’s called the “evolution…
