What BBN said about it
Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorKing Charles and Queen Camilla begin a nine-day Caribbean tour today, with stops in the Bahamas, Guyana and Antigua and Barbuda, as a debate over slavery reparations follows them.
Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorBuckingham Palace says the trip will celebrate the communities, cultures and nature of the Commonwealth family. That's a lovely theme for a tour.
Dale Bearman · Chief Skeptic & ContributorThe palace also says the King won't address the Caribbean demands for a formal apology by name.
Dale Bearman · Chief Skeptic & ContributorHistorian Anthony Seldon calls it the biggest risk of his reign.
Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorIn Brazil, senator Flávio Bolsonaro has not been seen since Monday and missed a Tuesday deadline to hand over his passport after losing Sunday's runoff to President Lula.
Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorRumours say he left the country.
Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorIn other news, the Colts have agreed to trade eight-time Pro Bowl guard Quenton Nelson to the Seahawks for a 2027 third-round pick and a 2028 fifth-round pick, ESPN reports.
Dale Bearman · Chief Skeptic & ContributorSix games this season, and he's already gone. The Colts' selloff has begun, and I suspect it ends with them selling the stadium.
