Goldmine: James Alefantis owns restaurant in Berlin near Dr. Pong, grew up in Hawaii (pizzagate)

submitted ago by Eggs-Vs-Bacon

It turns out that James co-owns a restaurant in Berlin Germany called Nalu Diner http://www.nalu-diner.de/

The "restaurant" section mentions that James grew in up in "Indiana and Hawaii". Seems he lived in Berlin for a while too.

The address is Dunckerstraße 80a, 10437 Berlin - just a few blocks away from Dr Pong, which is located at Eberswalder Str. 21, 10437 Berlin

If you map both of these locations, they are approximately 800 yards away from each other.

We know it is James Alefantis from this article https://www.mrporter.com/journal/mr-porter-eats/the-worlds-best-diners/795 from April of this year! He still owns it.

That's an insane "coincidence" considering people were investigating Dr Pong in Berlin for the last month.

I always assumed it was Buffalo where his parents were. I couldn't help but think a couple days back just how similar James Alefantis was to the Podesta's upbringing and lifestyle too. The Podestas had a mother who was known to cook and be a socialite. The Podestas have an usual love for art (you can find mention of that dating back to the Clinton administration), dark art to be specific. James Alefantis had a mother who was a caterer. Alefantis is into art (see http://www.transformerdc.org/)), of the darker nature as well. All of this seems to have connected them to the world of the elite wealthy and powerful in Washington DC and made them more powerful than the ordinary citizen that was into art and liked to cook.

Artwork does seem to be a cover for money laundering through the speculative values which can be placed on them:

- Chevy Chase Art Gallery & Custom Framers (2 doors down from CPP linked to CONNEB II LLC and subsidiary officed of Politics and Prose located on Nebraska Ave NW)

- Comet Ping Pong & Pizza (described as an 'art centered restaurant' in Transformer newsletter below)

- Buck's Fishing & Camping (described as an 'art centered restaurant' in Transformer newsletter below)

- Terasol (described on website as an 'Artisan Cafe' where you can buy Artisan Pottery etc.. while having bite to eat)

- Transformer (niche Art Gallery and Art Dealing Intermediary in D.C., championed by David Brock and James Alefantis, who was on the Board of Directors in 2003, nearly 2 years before he opened CPP and Bucks).

2007 TRANSFORMER NEWSLETTER:

James Alefantis is an entrepreneur as well as a creative and passionate supporter of artists. James is the owner of two of Washington's finest, art-centered restaurants, Buck's Fishing & Camping and Comet Ping Pong. These businesses support a diverse array of Washington's most talented emerging artists and venerable institutions - including the Hirshhorn Museum & Sculpture Garden, the Washington Ballet, Transformer, and more. Additionally, James, with his husband, David Brock, politico and Founder of Media Matters for America, support the improvement of the national political and media environment. Their art collection focuses on emerging artists working with social identity as well as work by artist friends and Transformer artists. James joined the board of Transformer in December 2003. He was elected President of the Board of Transformer in December 2006.

So it literally calls Alefantis the HUSBAND of David Brock, and says that he became President of the Board in Dec 2006 !!!

Alefantis was into ART (money laundering/black-market payments vector) before he branched into the restaurant front business. I startes a new sub about the Art connections here: ( https://voat.co/v/pizzagate/1504213 )

Which leaves one big question: Is there an art connection in Berlin relating to the Nalu and/or Dr. Pong? ... or in London? ... or even in Hawaii? ... and can they be connected to Alefantis? If so, it would serve a good purpose to identify perhaps sales records relating to the 'artists' who could simply be fronts for black market funds transfers using their artwork as legitimate vectors to make the financial statements of Politicians-Bureaucrats-Lobbyists in Washington or wherever, look legit.
