US court to hear challenge over Prince Harry’s visa following drug revelations

CNN — Prince Harry’s US immigration records should be unsealed in the light of revelations about drug-taking in his recent book, a conservative think tank will argue in a federal court next week.

The Heritage Foundation is suing the US government to find out if it acted according to procedure when it granted the Duke of Sussex a US visa. Under US immigration law, evidence of past drug use can be grounds to reject an application.

The case will be held in front of a federal judge on June 6 at the US District Court for the District of Columbia.

The Heritage Foundation filed a complaint under the Freedom of Information Act, attempting to compel the government to release Harry’s immigration file. “The requested information is of immense public interest,” reads an amended complaint filed on May 5.

“Widespread and continuous media coverage has surfaced the question of whether DHS [Department of Homeland Security] properly admitted the Duke of Sussex in light of the fact that he has publicly admitted to the essential elements of a number of drug offenses in both the United States and abroad,” it continues.

The original request for Harry’s records was rejected because Harry had not indicated that he “consented to his information being released,” the US Justice Department said in court papers.

Why are those heritage kunts going after Harry? Maybe racism towards his wife? I wonder if he paid them to do this for good sympathy pr....

Harry and Meghan are very unpopular among conservatives because they're seen as anti-monarchical complaining snowflakes.

by Anonymousreply 2June 2, 2023 6:29 AM

Deport him.

I hope most people see this as good news. Harry's drug use might be the way that the country finally gets rid of Harry (and Meghan). It's the UK that spawned such a deplorable character, and that country should take him back.

by Anonymousreply 4June 2, 2023 7:34 AM

ahaha, finally something I agree with U.S. conservatives with. It's especially amusing because it's the other way around here in the UK - conservatives are much more likely to be supporters of the monarchy and would not want to draw negative attention to them or criticise them especially for something pretty trivial like this.

by Anonymousreply 5June 2, 2023 7:53 AM

I haven't read the book, neither do I intend to. What kind of offences are we talking about? Are these offences that would make it impossible to successfully apply for US citizenship or even a visa? Also what has the Heritage Foundation to do with anything? Awful bigots. But also, maybe Harry learns that you haven't got a free pass for every shit just because you were born royal.

by Anonymousreply 6June 2, 2023 7:56 AM

They are saying that he lied about his illegal drug use when he made his visa application. I'd imagine that may nullify it. If the authorities care to investigate it anyway.

by Anonymousreply 7June 2, 2023 8:03 AM

Or that he didn't lie but the U.S. gave him preferential treatment because he's a celebrity/royal.

His depletion of a nitrous oxide cannister in the maternity ward for the purpose of getting high while his wife was in labor may count against him.

I mean imagine that, illicitly hooking up to and sucking up the hospital's supply because, because, because of all the wonderful work he does!

by Anonymousreply 9June 2, 2023 8:55 AM

He probably has a diplomatic passport, which I imagine comes with a lot of wiggle room when visa applications are submitted. I don’t see Biden kicking him out of the country for doing shrooms (which is all I think he’s admitted to).

That was so trashy. And how does Prince Dim think admitting that is a good idea?

[quote]He probably has a diplomatic passport,

Can't see that, he isn't a diplomat and it would cause political problems in the UK if found out. Experts think that that he may have O-1 visa status, usually handed to “an individual who possesses extraordinary ability in the sciences, arts, education, business or athletics or who has a demonstrated record of extraordinary achievement in the motion picture or television industry and has been recognised nationally or internationally.”

[quote]An immigration expert of Lightman Law in New York also came forward and admitted, “Harry would have no problem getting the O-1 because he's a prince. He's travelled all over the world... and there is his work with Invictus. It's going to be enough to qualify him.”

Fine, they should just say 'fuck America, too' and go back to Canada. They can get more bang for their buck there, anyway, and Canadians are part of the British Commonwealth and more Canadians probably assign them automatic respect than Americans do.

Who even wants to live in a country with a Heritage Foundation, much less one that elected Trump? If I had the money they have, I would not choose to live in the US.

Marriage doesn’t get you an automatic visa but makes it easier. You still need a visa if not a citizen.

Now I'm absolutely convinced that Palace Officials and the British Tabloid Media are going after Harry, using US Conservatards.

They already have a media smear campaign against Harry and Meghan, but now they are trying to use legal means to get to him.

I'm sure the British media is pissed that Harry came for them in the courts, and now they're repaying the favor.

I think the most amusing thing is seeing who all are on the same side. The Palace Officials, the British Media, Marjorie Taylor Greene, Matt Gaetz, George Santos, Ted Cruz, Rick DeSatanist, and all the others of that ilk.

They're not only disgusting, but they're also quite pathetic.

by Anonymousreply 19June 2, 2023 10:46 AM

Yes this is about racism because I have no doubt Meghan will be kicked out with him. He is getting high on nitrous oxide which is meant for his wife's labor. This is one red neck piece of trash. He has admitted to a fondness for cocaine. Why does he have to consent to his visa application being made public under the freedom of information act? Sounds like everyone is getting as stupid as Harry. And their fight against climate change has been so effective considering he does nothing but sue everyone under the sun and she spends all her time at B list Hollywood parties. Without him. She knew he was an idiot but she got what she wanted out of him and has now had enough. Who could blame her?

A visa application is made under oath. One if the questions asks about drug use.

US Citizenship and Immigration Services' official policies say that visa applicants "who are found to be drug users or addicts" are inadmissible.

Since he was admitted it must be presumed Harry answered in the negative. However Harry's book says otherwise. Which time was he lying, and why is the administration covering up for rich people when ordinary people would be denied legal admission to the US.

The Sussex-grannystans are so weird. I've been screaming about Melania and her undeserved visa and her working in the US illegally for years. Years. Don't forget the way her parents were given citizenship on the fast track, it was unearned. I hate the Heritage Foundation, as far as I'm concerned they're a treasonous, anti-democratic pit of vipers. The sooner they join their master Satan in the bowels of hell, the better off we'll all be in America.

Trump? I'd shoot him in the face if I had the chance. I'm old, I lack the energy and drive. I'll never do it but I still hate him with the heat of 10,000 suns and wish him dead. I'm a big fan of the "He could stroke out at any moment" plan.

As for Harry and that narcissistic cunt he married, she's a good match for him since he's the most selfish, snowflaky, moronic Prince you could ever hope to trap into marriage. They both treated the late Queen and Prince Philip disgracefully and they will never recover from that. In America, Hollywood won't touch them with a barge pole. As far as I can see, Harry would be perfectly happy to go to Africa and save elephants with his kids. It's Markle who's so thirsty for Hollywood that she's desperately trying to shove her way in via marriage since she couldn't make it on talent. She doesn't understand Hollywood - they want what they can't have. Everyone can have the Sussexes, it's just a matter of negotiating the price. Nobody's willing to pay that price, this is why Netflix and Spotify have cancelled them and more cancelling awaits them in the near future. They're becoming untouchables.

Mrs. Sussex is about 80% white. I know that weird Americans go by the "one drop rule" but normal people don't. She's mixed but not much and is mostly white. Her problem is not racism. She was welcomed in England and her marriage was celebrated by the British people. I saw it with my own eyes. Lining the streets and cheering and all that rubbish. If they got fed up with her spoiled antics and diva behavior, it's her own damn fault. She's greedy, bullying, unpleasant, demanding, phony and unlikable, that's why the people turned on her. She turned on them first.

Harry's callous treatment of his grandparents along with his greed, selfishness, constant whining, endless attacks against his family and pimping out his memories for cash has killed whatever affection the public had for him. He was a cheeky, cheerful little chappy as a kid and everyone adored his mother and everyone adored him. We got over that because he forced us to get over it with his shitty, spoiled, mean-spirited, vile behavior. He will never be forgiven for what he did to the Queen in her last years, nor for what he did to Prince Philip in his final days.

The Sussex problem isn't race its the Sussexes themselves. They are constant liars and self-pitying exaggerators. They have lousy characters as human beings and once the public saw them as the really nasty people they are the public turned away from Harry and Megan, thoroughly disgusted. They did this themselves, they have no one else to blame but of course they blame everyone but themselves. They are shallow and stupid and nowhere near attractive enough to make up for all that.

The *actual* twins in this scenario are Trump and Markle. Two narcissist peas in a pod. Of course they can't stand each other. Too much competition.

Paul McCartney has owned US property for decades in Tucson, the Hamptons, NYC, etc., and has been very open about his drug use - and he was famously thrown in a Japanese jail for ten days back in the 80s.

Not that I’m comparing a certified legend with Harry, but is it just about the lying?

Eh, so what. He’s married to a US citizen and got fast-tracked probably as a favor to the British government because otherwise it would be too embarrassing. He’s so used to getting special treatment that not getting a visa never occurred to him. Just let him go vegetate in California because he’s not our problem anymore. Harry will never comprehend the extent to which the courtiers around him created his image, smoothed his way, and organized his life since birth.
