There is a pic of James with a man in Cuba as well, in an apartment or house. Perhaps a friend or lover.
His referring to slaughter throughout was very disturbing. He slaughters 40 rabbits for his friends feast and posted a pic. (though they are cleaned.) It's gross and sadistic. Also, when they are alive in a separate pic. Wonder where he keeps these live animals he personally slaughters. Most chefs buy frozen but I guess he likes the practice.
"Standing in the kitchen and acting out his role, Podesta explained: “It’s best to do the butchering at 4 a.m., “because pigs should be slaughtered when it is cool, and it takes a long time to roast them. The pig is hauled on a front-end loader in order to split and gut it. It’s most important to slow the pig down by shooting it between the eyes so you can cut its throat. It makes the pig less ornery and a whole lot more cooperative than if you just stick a knife in its throat.”
In homage to these skills, Podesta used to have a picture of a pig on a spit as his screen saver, but his staffers made him get rid of it, because he said: “They couldn’t stand looking into the pig’s eyes during meetings.”

Podesta used to slaughter pigs, too...
