I'm not an art person, but I know bullshit money laundering when I see it. If you Jewgle, you can find out that the CIA begun the modern art market. I believe it was to screw the Soviets somehow but I can't remember. That is a fact.

I think the legal skirmish may pull back the curtain a bit on the anonymous buyers in art. Often these multimillion dollar buyers are anonymous and the auction houses keep everything secret, don't ask where the money comes from.

Correct. Some anon that understood the process posted one time and I forget how it works, but I'll give it a try. These people grease the artists, and the art houses, and the marketers to drive up the prices. Buying "starving artists" and then selling at a huge premium. One aspect. Another is anonymous buying using dirty money, auction hoses keep secrets, everybody paid to keep everything secret, then they sell these million dollar pieces later, even at a small loss they have laundered their money.

It was even demonstrated on an episode of The Sapranos.

You'd be surprise how many people don't get it, but then again, I'm still surprised at the number of people that vote Democrat too.

Good point.

Door opens door closes door opens door closses door oppens door closses.

Can i record this?

It's "only worth what someone is willing to pay for it."

the concealment of the origins of illegally obtained money, typically by means of transfers involving foreign banks or legitimate businesses.

No. Not in the least.

Let me give you an example of how they unload their garbage.

In Illinois, one of the Lincoln Societies (shit pile of them) bought a top hat that supposedly belonged to Abe Lincoln, paid ~6 million for it. Somebody called bullshit, so after investigation, the lady that sold it bought it for $5K, she was connected somehow to the lady that pushed the purchase of the, and of course that women is a former Dick Durbin money bundler. Now, she is running for a House seat, Betsy Dirkson Londrigan. Got her ass handed to her first time, but she's already gearing up for the next run. I probably didn't get this 100% correct, but that's the gist of it. Its one big corrupt money laundering political criminal enterprise.

Try cashing a 75000 check at your local bank.

I take everything from everywhere with a grain of salt, but with some cross referencing you can find gems everywhere. I'm not sure why you would have concern about an Art story. I'm simply using it as an example to bring attention to a broader problem, money laundering.

Can you elaborate?

I love how ita literally in the name of those retarded shiny trinkets: JEWelery.

DeBeers is having a hard time lately, poor poor Jews.

So rare they find them every single day.

Keep digging. Kek.

I can't say piddly shit like that, but when you're talking 10,20,30 million for a painting, and its an anonymous bid. Yeah, questionable money.

A real (starving) artist came in after it was gone, painted "Epstein didnt kill himself" in red paint, amd was worth 0, and thats all one needs to know that banana bullshit was a money laundering scam.

Agreed, but your money is probably clean money, not blood money.

Good question, but money laundering has a cost, its not free. As I understand it, you pay the person that markets and drives up the price, got to pay off the auction houses too. Nobody wants to know where the money comes from, they just move it thru the system.

I don't believe so. I think an artist is selling their talent, and that it is not a commercial item that is taxed. Go to any art gallery and you pay the price listed, no tax.

Only of you consent.

Of course, the kikes need their cut.

imgur wouldn't let me see it without signing in. fuck imgur.

Don't have a sign in to imgur. Is it some pedo shit?

@3565299?

There's nothing in the article you posted that deals with money laundering. Are you even aware of that?

@21749676?

Ever see a "painting" that looks like a septic explosion? And then it brings 100,000.00 (and lots more) at auction? BINGO!

That's not how money laundering works.

What you are describing is not money laundering. That's you not agreeing with prices in the art market. I would never pay over a million dollars for a car, but that doesn't mean there are no cars out there costing a million dollars or more. You can spend $2.5 million on a car and still not have the most expensive car they make. An Aston-Martin Valkyrie will set you back $3.2,

When you launder your money, you want to have clean usable money. If you need to store it long term, you can buy things like art or real estate, but you want to be able to get your money back if you need to. If you pay $100K for a worthless painting, you won't get that $100K back. If you just want to pay someone, you can just give them a briefcase full of cash. It's a much easier transaction.

There is an art market, whether you agree with the prices in that market or not. If you using art to launder money, you want VALUABLE paintings. And paintings sold at auction are probably the least problematic in terms of pricing. Multiple buyers show is there a demand for that work at that price.

Or the banana duct-taped to the wall that brought in $120,000

The book "best seller" thing leads to another scam. It doesn't take many thousand books bought to make a book a "best seller" so they buy in bulk a few thousand copies of some crap book, Obongos tranny husbands book for instance. Then they donate all the best sellers they just bought to libraries across the US as a tax write off and the libraries are of course happy to take them because now they have plenty of copies of a "best seller." Dirty money becomes a tax write off, and of course they can push whatever propaganda they want through the "best seller" books.

These people are beyond sick. I sometimes wonder if they really are human. There's no limit to their depravity.
