Anna Gaskell, subject of WaPo hitpiece against Pizzagate, has been accused of being a CIA MK asset involved in Pedogate circles as early as 2011. (pizzagate)

Summary

The piece in the Washington Post, as well as NWMA's direct link to both Tony Podesta and Marina Abramovic, suggest that Anna Gaskell is likely striking back at several accusations that artists link Marina Abramovic, Jeff Koons, Damien Hirst and herself are part of an extended human trafficking network with links to the Rockefellers and Rothschilds.

But amazingly, a Vanity Fair narrative profile detailing the spontaneous suicide of two artists who, in their own right, had a lengthy background with the occult, includes the strange accusation that Anna Gaskell is a member of the CIA and is closely tied to MK Ultra. This comes from her ex-boyfriend, who died in mysterious circumstances off the coast of Queens in 2011, but a closer look at the evidence reveals it is likely true.

Body

A narrative piece called "The Golden Suicides" details the life of Jeremy Blake and Teresa Duncan, two rising stars of the art world who studied at Washington D.C.'s Corcoran School of Art. The school, part of George Washington University, actually once employed Francis Luzzatto, who worked there before he joined AID programs for the State Dept (aka CIA-related activities).

Theresa Duncan and her lover Blake were stars of the art world who rose to stardom in the NY art world.

"The lovely Theresa” was Theresa Duncan, a writer, filmmaker, computer-game creator, and Blake’s girlfriend of 12 years. He had found her lifeless body on July 10, in the rectory of St. Mark’s Church in Manhattan’s East Village, where the couple had been renting an apartment. There was a bowl full of Benadryl pills, a bottle of Tylenol PM, and a champagne glass on the nightstand. There was a note saying, “I love all of you.” Duncan was 40.

Theresa Duncan was involved in the New York Art Scene with her boyfriend, who was somewhat of a minor celebrity, to the point where he mingled with the New York art elite.

There had been reports they had become “paranoid,” obsessed with conspiracy theories, believing they were being harassed by Scientologists. The Internet filled up with conjecture about government plots and murder. Something about their story seemed to capture the modern imagination, if only because no one knew exactly why two such accomplished and attractive people had chosen to make their exit.

But what's weirder, is that Anna Gaskell herself seems to be at the center of the accusations, and in a blog post on her website, Duncan herself accused the Gaskell family of gangstalking them and of her guardian of being a CIA handler Jim Cownie. They were both also knee-deep in Pedogate, as evidenced by this post, and were well aware of the Johnny Gosch-Boystown saga that was part of the Franklin Scandal.

To add the final dessert topping to this apocalyptic art world sundae, Mr. Wit says that normally dour Cownie frequently made jokes about child molestation as a "training" tool. This wouldn't be so fucking spooky, friends of the Staircase, if Des Moines wasn't the land of the Project Monarch/U.S. Intelligence rumored disappearance of Johnny Gosch and the odd resemblance of poor little Johnny to Bush White House gay hooker-psychological operative Jeff Gannon.

She is also mentioned in the article as warming up to Jerry Saltz, art critic closely tied to NYC and who, unbelievably, has posted 'artistic' depictions of child abuse on his Instagram.

But it goes so much deeper. Duncan and Blake were actually part of the punk scene in 90s-era DC and were friends with many musicianss that are now regulars at Comet Ping Pong, such as Ian Svevonius, author of such songs as "Every Baby Cries The Same". He is acquainted with James Alefantis and this suggests that they may have crossed paths in the insular D.C. art world.

Jeremy Blake and Theresa Duncan first met in 1994. They were both part of the activist, “positive force” punk-rock scene in Washington (think Fugazi, Bikini Kill). He hung around with the band Nation of Ulysses (Svenonius' band), believed in punk as a philosophy.

The connections don't end there. Jeremy Blake also accused popular commentator Reza Aslan of talking to him about his FBI records and of having heretofore inaccessible info on him.

Also during this time, someone named Reza Aslan, a Muslim "scholar" and friend of a friend who attended school in Iowa came to my house in Venice, CA and freely chatted about an FBI file of mine he seemed vividly aware of, even though at that time I myself did not know such a file existed. A consequent FOIA filing revealed his "magic" knowledge of these documents to be true.

Duncan 'committed suicide' after meeting with producers and George Pelecanos in a unidentified DC restaurant. She was found dead of a alcohol-tylenol overdose the following morning, and Jeremy Blake went ballistic. But before Blake committed suicide a week, a number of people, including some connected to Comet Ping Pong like Ian Svenonius, watched over him and monitored him.

His psychiatrist friend felt that Blake was at great risk for suicide. A group was instantly organized to keep watch over him round the clock: Mike Fellows, Ian Svenonius, Guy Picciotto—all old buddies from the punk scene in Washington—Morales, and a few others.

But what's weird is that he died on the South shore of Long Island in Queens, where, only a couple miles down the shore, many of the members of Comet Ping Pong were likely partying at the Kaballah-influenced "Fire Island Festival", including Alefantis himself (The 2011 Festival happened on the same day as his death). Given that Svenonius, Boutlier and other Comet regulars were there, there's a chance that Blake was actually invited out there and met with them shortly before his death.

Conclusion

This story, as well as the artist blog they wrote together, indicates that the NYC/DC Art World is closely tied to the CIA and amazingly, Comet Ping Pong too. They were tying Gaskell and others to the CIA and the NYPD should reopen this case to determine if the couple were actually threatened by cult members shortly before their death.

This reporting adds weight to the Scientology connection and Duncan's reports of Scientology involvement. Apparently, the Vanity Fair piece wasn't written by the person it was credited to. It was written by a known Scientology "media informant" who has a background as a NYPD detective - name of Connelly.

Almost everyone interviewed for this story brought up a minor mystery connected to the authorship of "The Golden Suicides," which the SoMA review first addressed in a post that was picked up by New York magazine's Vulture blog. In it, SoMA's editor Spalding wrote that he was contacted by someone who was familiar with the reporting on the story and who said that she "was stunned to read that Nancy Jo Sales had the byline."

As it turns out, that person was LA Weekly's Kate Coe, who maintains that she always believed Vanity Fair contributing editor John Connolly to be the "author of record" and who shared some of her research with him when he first took on the assignment. Robin, who spoke to both Connolly and Sales, concurred that Connolly was the first to interview him.

Connolly, too, insists that the assignment was initially his and said that he had asked to be taken off the story after Sales became involved, because he felt her relationship with Morales was "too complicated." After Sales completed the story, Connolly had the option of taking an "additional reporting" byline but declined to do so.

John Connolly, as Gawker's own John Cook reported in a 2011 New York Observer story called "Was a Vanity Fair Editor Secretly Working for the Church of Scientology?", has his own bizarre connections to the church. (A Vanity Fair spokeswoman named Beth Kseniak confirmed to Cook that Connolly contributed to "The Golden Suicides.")

From the Observer:

The accusation comes from Marty Rathbun, who ranked so high in the organization before he left that he served as Tom Cruise's "auditor," or confessor, and Mike Rinder, Scientology's former chief spokesman. Both men have defected from the church and accuse its current leader, David Miscavige, of ruling through violence and terror. On February 15, Rathbun posted to his blog a lengthy internal church memo, purportedly written by Linda Hamel, chief of the church's faux-CIA "Office of Special Affairs," revealing Connolly to have secretly supplied intelligence to the church on the preparation of Andrew Morton's 2008 biography of Tom Cruise. According to the memo, Connolly approached Morton in 2006 under the pretense of writing "an article for Vanity Fair about the books Morton has done on celebrities including the one he is writing on Tom Cruise." He proceeded, the memo says, to pump Morton for information about his book and report it back to the church.

And while we have our tinfoil hats on, isn't it interesting that P.T. Anderson—who worked with Blake on Punch Drunk Love, remember, and introduced the artist to Beck—made a movie about Scientology in 2012?

"Never heard of these people," a representative of the Church said when Sales asked about the alleged harassment for her Vanity Fair article. "This is completely untrue."

If the church is working this hard to run and spin the reporting on Duncan's suicide, her fears before her death are a lot more justified, and the suicide itself, possibly of both her and her boyfriend are called into question. And what does this say about Vanity Fair? Yet another media outlet infiltrated by forces that wish to publish controlled narratives to shape public opinion - another way to say "fake news".
