Royal feud reignites with Harry’s ‘glum’ Katy Perry concert appearance, Charles birthday ‘snub’

Published Sun, 29 Dec 2024 12:42:52 GMT

Even though Prince Harry and Meghan Markle haven’t done much lately to warrant serious press attention, the California-based couple made plenty of headlines this week and contributed to a reignited debate about their deepening row with the British royal family.It’s always hard to tell whether the Duke and Duchess of Sussex are looking for attention, or whether they just can’t help themselves and the fact that the global media and people online always want to talk about them. Whatever the case, the stories about them this week have been strange, loaded and even incendiary, and it’s hard to pin why the reports are cropping up now or if the couple have chosen to engage with some of the members of the media. The reports include a news story that they “snubbed” an invitation to King Charles’ 75th birthday party on Nov. 14.Over the past week, conspiracy theories have flourished online that Harry and Meghan let themselves be photographed trick-or-t...

If there’s a clear winner in the ongoing culture war clashes involving Temecula’s school board, it’s probably the lawyers.Since a conservative majority took office in December, legal costs directly associated with the Temecula Valley Unified School District board have skyrocketed 377% — from roughly $17,000 in 2022 to more than $81,000 this year, according to information provided by the school district.Holding three of five board seats, the conservative bloc — Danny Gonzalez, Joseph Komrosky and Jen Wiersma — have pursued a number of divisive policies, including a ban on the teaching of critical race theory that’s the subject of a lawsuit against the district.The district’s legal representation has drastically changed since the majority took over. In January, the board voted 3-2 — with Barclay and Schwartz opposed — to hire special legal counsel to advise board members, with the majority citing a lack of trust in the district’s existing legal team.Temecula school board member Alliso...
