In my last post, I was looking into a strange email which seemed to mention Tony Podesta owning a "coffee place": https://voat.co/v/pizzagate/1560548
I now believe that coffee shop exists, and I think I found it: Art Blu Cafe https://sli.mg/185B9X
Reasons:
- Name - spelling of Cafe is not local italian spelling (Caffe), contains the word art, as Tony Podesta is noted for his art collection (we know him for his perverse art, but the way he's written about is as "art collector" -- https://archive.fo/Mw2Yx))
- Website - note the international signage: https://archive.fo/S9jq9
- Website Pictures - Just 8 pictures on the website, and why is one this? https://sli.mg/lO2bzy - file name is clienti3 (clienti means clients)
- Period of Activity - Take a look at the guestbook: https://archive.fo/bc3ao, active until June of 2015
- Coinciding Events: Tony Podesta filed for divorce in 2014, and discussed the fate of his Venice property https://wikileaks.org/podesta-emails/emailid/46159
- Email - in this email, https://archive.fo/Mta8z (mention of kids, James Alefantis in the sign-off), you can see he mentions driving specifically to San Marco, if you look at the location of this place (https://www.google.com/maps/place/art+blu+caff%C3%A8/@45.432628,12.3302394,20z)))), it's in San Marco
- Surroundings 1 - there is a really strange "Gallery" nearby: http://www.fiorellagallery.com/ (flash takes time to load, and then it is repulsive)
- "Gallery" - more on the Gallery https://archive.fo/uooLL https://sli.mg/VC3SeQ
- Surroundings 2 - and then there's this: https://sli.mg/tObedO (The Pentagram Soc - Coop: an unclaimed business with no website)

I'm not sure what's so grotesque (nor why their page loads like it's 1998) about it, I see some lazy "spooky" (ugh) doll "art" graphic blinking with a cartoon coffin with extremely lame Halloween sound FX playing in the background comprising of a church bell ringing like the village spastic is in charge, and this "ooOOooOoOo" sound with chirping birds. So, really, REALLY bad Halloween sound files we're talking about. Annoyingly lazy, edgy "art" and it seems their last good, large installation (the rat float- pretty neat) was ages ago. Unless there is something someone else knows that I don't, it's hard for me to see the connection to PG here other than Molesta likes some coffee shop in the area, which for those of you who've never been there is not exactly narrowing it down easily. :/
