A lawsuit filed by the Heritage Foundation to make public Prince Harry's visa records, amid questions about his 2020 US entry with admitted drug use, is set for its first court hearing since Donald Trump's inauguration. The American think tank argues Harry either lied on his visa application or received special treatment from the Biden administration. Lawyers for both parties are scheduled to meet in a Washington DC federal court on February 5th.
PODCAST:A lawsuit to make Prince Harry's secret visa records public is set to have its first court hearing since Donald Trump 's inauguration.The American think tank has raised questions about how he was able to gain entry to the US in 2020 with his wife Meghan having admitted in his 2023 book Spare to taking cocaine, marijuana and psychedelic mushrooms.
Heritage lost a previous case in September when it brought a lawsuit against the Department for Homeland Security after a Freedom of Information request for Harry's documents to be released was rejected.The case was brought because visa applicants must by law declare whether they have taken drugs. Failure to do so can lead to deportation, and Heritage wanted the US Government to release the records to see what Harry said about drug usage.
Trump previously suggested Harry may be deported from the US under his leadership if the Duke is found to have falsified information on his visa form - even though his wife is American and his children are dual citizens. 'I'll be urging the president to release Prince Harry's immigration records and the president does have that legal authority to do that,' Nile Gardiner, director of Heritage's Margaret Thatcher Center for Freedom told the New York Post.
Trump gestures as he boards Air Force One upon departure from Harry Reid International Airport in Las Vegas, Nevada -- January 25, 2025 'We'll have to see if they know something about the drugs, and if he lied they'll have to take appropriate action,' Trump responded.'Oh I don't know. You'll have to tell me. You just have to tell me. You would have thought they would have known this a long time ago,' Trump replied.
