Still stuck on the last two: is 18ac (-E-O---N-E) Recompense? If so, why? And what does that make 3d? I have -O-S-A-L--. Thanks in advance, guys.

It's always good to give the clues - it makes it a lot easier for those of us without a copy!

18a Republican 19 reportedly receives green money as payment (10)

Thanks, Toorak. Much appreciated. And apologies to Captain2 and Nical for youthful inexpertise.
I would provide the link but that might give the whole crossword away as I have completed it

But it is available free online

The clue for 18 is republican 19 (which is veep) reportedly receives green money as payment
Recompense - 'R(epublican)' + "(Mike) Pence" (reportedly; said) (receives) 'eco' (green)
For the parsing I took it to be Pense (sounds like (Mike) pence) after r(eceives) eco (green) m(oney)

But I am not 100% sure
R(epublican) rather than r(ecieves)
Sorry - yes, I missed 'm(oney)' from my post
