So @Blacksmith21 posted Another Suicide: Wife of Artist Peter Max. To which I replied with some information from this article: Dementia Stopped Peter Max From Painting. For Some, That Spelled a Lucrative Opportunity.
Summary points:
- Peter Max is a famous pop artist who has worked with many famous people from the Beatles to Obama, to Prince Edward.
- He is considered a very large influence in the Counter Culture movement of the Sixties and Seventies. These days his work can be found in Park West showrooms on all of the major cruise lines, including Royal Caribbean, Carnival and Norwegian

According to an audit included in recent legal proceedings, from 2012 to 2018 ALP went from insolvency to Mr. Luntz generating a total of more than $93 million in sales. There are accusations of the artist putting his signature to other artists work to pass it off as his own but he now suffers from dementia.
Mary Max was a Board member of HSUS. An organization which we have written about on pizzagate.
There are a number of points which are relevant but I want to focus here on the business relationship between the Max family and Park West :
Park West is still aggressively selling Peter Max aboard the world’s cruise ships. Just before Christmas, the gallery had some of the best real estate on the Mariner of the Seas, a Royal Caribbean ship drifting through the mint-blue waters off Coco Cay in the Bahamas. With Max pieces front and center, Park West had set up in a narrow corridor between the main dining room and the restrooms, which made it hard for anyone who went to dinner and had to use the toilet to avoid a Park West salesperson.
He compared Mr. Max to Warhol and conceptual artists like Jeff Koons and Damien Hirst, who exert creative control but typically rely on others to paint or construct the art.
Park West Gallery https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Park_West_Gallery
Park West Gallery is a commercial art gallery founded in 1969 by Albert Scaglione and based in Southfield, Michigan, United States, where it occupies 63,000-square-foot (5,900 m2) premises, which is open for public and educational visits. It employs 1,000 staff globally and stated its annual revenue as $300–$400 million (2007 figure). It exhibits historic artists such as Renoir as well as contemporary artists. It funds the philanthropic Park West Foundation.
In 1993, Park West Gallery began staging art auctions on cruise ships around the world. The company currently operates on over 100 ships and conducts more than 5,000 auctions per year on board, as well as in Ritz Carlton hotels and other luxury properties.
..Park West Gallery established its Park West Foundation in 2006, a non-profit that assists young men and women who are exiting the foster care system. As of 2013, the foundation has assisted more than 350 individuals with housing, transportation, jobs and clothing. It also provides tuition assistance for post-secondary education through partnerships with universities.
Foster care, did you say?

Since its founding in 2006, Park West Foundation has partnered with the Michigan Department of Human Services and other agencies to provide counseling, education and support for foster youth and those aging out of the system. The foundation was founded by Park West Gallery Founder and CEO Albert Scaglione and his wife, Mitsie, who serves as the foundation’s executive director.

Ordained in 1978 Father Jon Wehrle mentioned in Rose Maher’s podcast
“He was a licensed foster care parent in Michigan from 1983 to 2003, according to the Michigan Department of Health and Human Services. A state spokesman said he was unable to provide information as to how many children Wehrle fostered, but Wehrle himself has said he raised three adopted sons.”..

Yep, and here is an interesting article I just dug up about human trafficking in Michigan. Why did I dig this up?
When I heard about Centurion Aviation above, it connected a few dots for me… Devos also created (and runs with an iron fist) a massive annual art event here in Grand Rapids called ArtPrize that is a well-known hot spot for sex trafficking each year; so much so that groups warn females not to go to the massive event alone…
Basically, underage teens are enticed or sometimes forced to become prostitutes during the event, many are used by high-profile ‘clients’ that are in town for the event, and I have seen many times quite young looking women dressed provocatively entering the Devos property. Not children, but teens/college girls. I used to live with a friend right down the road from one of Devos’ homes.

63 fetuses removed from Perry Funeral Home in Detroit
there were 36 fetuses stored in boxes and another 27 found in freezers, police said.

Peter Max was an “old pal” of Andy Warhol.
https://www.vanityfair.com/culture/2010/07/peter-marx-excerpt-201007
similar to his old pal Andy Warhol’s
Warhol was big friends with John Lennon and witch/wife Yoko Skank Ono.
Naturally, Max was also involved with Lennon whose famous deportation case set the precedent for Obama’s action policy.
This all means that McCarthy and Nixon were geniuses – or at least knew something. They were both defamed, but I dearly wish I knew what Nixon’s Plumbers were looking for at the DNC.

Wyclef Jean Paid His Mistress $105,000 Through His Haiti Charity
Yele Haiti, the sketchy foundation that Wyclef Jean founded to help the Haitian people—which received millions in the outpouring of generosity following the wake of the earthquake there—paid Jean’s mistress and personal assistant $105,000 in 2008.
That’s Zakiya Khatou-Chevassus on the right in the photo above. According to Yele Haiti’s 2008 tax return, which was posted this week by the Smoking Gun, the charity paid Khatou-Chevassus $105,000 as an independent contractor in 2008 for “program development.” That amounts to roughly one-third of all the money Yele spent that year on management and general expenses.
So what did she do for that money? Khatou-Chevassus is currently listed on Yele’s web site as the organization’s vice president. But according to five sources familiar with Yele’s operations, in 2008 she served as Jean’s personal assistant—working on his commercial endeavors as well as his charitable ones—and was involved romantically with the former Fugees star.
Jean has a long history of using Yele Haiti’s money for his own commercial gain. In 2005, 2006, and 2007, the foundation paid out a total of $410,000 to commercial entities controlled in whole or in part by Wyclef, including a whopping $250,000 for advertising time on a Haitian television station he co-owns. According to internal financial statements obtained by Gawker in January, Jean didn’t contribute a single dollar to Yele Haiti’s American operation during the year he founded it, and its founding executive director resigned because he “saw hundreds of thousands of dollars going to business needs and nothing going to the charity, when it seemed that part of Wyclef’s new PR strategy focuses on his charitable endeavors.” In 2006, he demanded a $100,000 fee to perform at a Yele Haiti fundraiser designed to raise money for his own hometown. The event was canceled in part because securing Jean’s participation was too expensive.
..As the Smoking Gun noted, Khatou-Chevassus seems to have done some modeling in the past. The photo on the right above was taken at a 2009 reception she organized in New York for Prince Edward’s International Award Association. (Captions from photographs taken at the event that we found online identify her as the CEO of Carte Blanche International, but we’re almost certain that’s an error. All of the people we spoke to who know Khatou-Chevassus say it’s preposterous that she’d be a credit card executive; we’ve called Carte Blanche to ask.)
A call to Khatou-Chevassus and an e-mail to Yele Haiti’s publicist were not immediately returned.
