Columnist Amanda Platell accused Sarah “Fergie” Duchess of York and her daughters, Princesses Beatrice and Eugenie, of ignoring the fallout from Prince Andrew’s scandals and of being stuck in “delusions.” She argued that while Andrew’s titles and public roles are under scrutiny, little has been said about the princesses who benefited from his status.

However, Democrats opposed it, citing insufficient protections for healthcare subsidies and other priorities. Schumer said Democrats would not reopen the government unless their key demands were addressed. With no agreement in sight, the shutdown is on track to eclipse the previous record and has…
