Illegal? Immoral? Insane?

Much is being made of a “buried, suddenly removed” 2004 Washington Post article about Podesta and photos of naked teenagers on his walls at home.

First of all, the article is about Tony Podesta, not John Podesta. John is Hillary’s campaign chairman. Tony is John’s brother. Tony is also a political mover and shaker in Washington.

The WaPo article begins this way:

Married, With Art
Tony and Heather Podesta Are a Study in Power Collecting
By Jessica Dawson
Special to The Washington Post
Thursday, September 23, 2004; Page C01

“The collection started almost by accident. It was 1980, and Tony Podesta was bidding adieu to co-workers from Sen. Ted Kennedy’s just-failed bid for the presidential nomination. On their way out the door, staff members were handed whatever goodies remained — among them a tube of limited-edition prints donated to the campaign by the likes of Warhol and Rauschenberg.”

“A quarter-century later, those prints are history, but Podesta is counted among the nation’s most important contemporary art collectors. Inside the elite Chelsea galleries, he and his wife, Heather, are gossiped about, deferred to and ushered toward the choicest works. All the art stars know their names.”

Skipping down, we get to this:

“Political candidates eagerly tap [Tony] Podesta’s mojo, too: He spearheaded President Clinton’s successful 1996 Pennsylvania campaign, and Sen. John Kerry has hired him to work the same magic for him in the Keystone State this year [2004]. [Wife] Heather, 26 years his junior and several shades greener, carved a career aiding Reps. Robert Matsui and Earl Pomeroy; she joined Blank Rome’s law and government relations firm this spring.”

Tony has been very active politically, on behalf of Democrats.

The WaPo article eventually presents a shocker:

“’At political events [at Tony’s home], there’s an inevitable awkwardness’, former Clinton administration official Sally Katzen said at a Women’s Campaign Fund dinner at the Podestas’ home this summer. ‘The art is an ice-breaker. It puts people at ease’.”

“Not always. Folks attending a house tour in the Lake Barcroft neighborhood in Falls Church earlier this year got an eyeful when they walked into a bedroom at the Podesta residence hung with multiple color pictures by Katy Grannan, a photographer known for documentary-style pictures of naked teenagers in their parents’ suburban homes.”

“’They were horrified’, Heather recalls, a grin spreading across her face.”

The Matrix Revealed


Tony Podesta: big-time art collector and patron of the arts; big-time mover and shaker in Washington; big-time campaign consultant for Democratic candidates; pictures of naked teenagers on his walls.

Does anyone stop to ask how permission was obtained to shoot those photos in the first place? And then to print them, sell them, show them publicly? The parents of the children gave their consent? The kids gave their consent? On what basis does anyone allow teenagers to make that kind of decision for themselves—or think that teenagers have the capacity to make such a decision? Technically, the whole operation may fall within the law (although I don’t see how), but on every other level it’s insane. And it’s child endangerment.

And a major political operative in Washington, Tony Podesta, sees no problem with it. He has the photos on his walls at home. He displays them for his Washington insider pals and donors. They may blush, but they look. And none of them raises a public objection. They keep their mouths shut, because this is Tony Podesta, and he’s a power player.

In the sewer called Washington DC.

    Heather’s first taste of Tony’s [Podesta’s] art [Tony being the older brother of John Podesta — John being the Chairman of Hillary’s campaign] came on their first date, in the fall of 2001, when they stopped at his house to pick up his car before heading to the opera. Passing some of the quirkier selections, Heather recalls Tony remarking, “I don’t know why it is, but I have artworks where the women have no heads.” The next day, she sent him a note signed, “Woman with a head.” They were married [in 2003].

    The pictures ringing Tony’s ninth-floor office at PodestaMattoon deliver an unusual welcome. A suite of arresting computer-manipulated photographs by Dutch artist Margi Geerlinks serves as a cautionary tale of genetic engineering. One shows a boy seemingly born from a sewing machine. Another finds a young girl knitting her own hair. A third has a naked woman immersed in blood-red liquid.

    Though pictures rotate on and off the walls of the couple’s homes, a piece in the Woodley Park living room stays. Called “Soliloquy VII,” the nearly eight-foot-tall color photo by British artist Sam Taylor-Wood is an update of a late-15th-century painting of the dead Jesus. Taylor-Wood faithfully replicates the original’s composition, here photographing, in vivid color and minute detail, a young man laid out on his back. Just one thing: Taylor-Wood omits the shroud, displaying his subject in all his nakedness.

    Though often politely ignored, “Soliloquy VII” is rarely forgotten. Tony and Heather love it. They crane their necks to hear the whispers generated when the pols stop in. Tony often uses the work to launch into a story about Hillary Clinton’s visit, when she ducked and tiptoed around the work lest any photo opportunity capture her alongside the naked figure.

    February 2015 saw the release of Taylor-Johnson’s directorial feature, FIFTY SHADES OF GREY, the highly-anticipated adaptation of the best-selling novel. In its opening weekend, the film drew in $94million in the USA alone and has gone on to make over $550million worldwide. Not only has the film been titled Universal Pictures’ highest-grossing R-rated international release, but its release also marked the biggest opening in history for a female director.

    This tells you what kinds of personages run the world.

    These folks, are merely the low-level “management”.

    “White children” are the most sought after, in the world of sex-slave trade.

    Contemplate that for a moment.

    Sounds very much like what some have theorized about the massive Neanderthals’ lust for the fairer Cromagnon women!

    Amazing how certain patterns of ancient history seem to (re)emerge, especially when directed by the “powers that (should not) be”? ? ?

    This is what US Supreme Court Justice Potter Stewart said about pornography:

    I shall not today attempt further to define the kinds of material I understand to be embraced within that shorthand description [“hard-core pornography”], and perhaps I could never succeed in intelligibly doing so. But I know it when I see it, and the motion picture involved in this case is not that.

    Pornography is hard to define, and not all nude portraits appear to be pornographic.

    …maybe Katy Grannan has a more racy collection earmarked for the Clintons. […]

  6. Lord Windemere says:

    With a name like Podesta I am not surprised.

    It is almost like a portmanteau of the Greek root “ped-” for child, and the word “molester”.

    Pedester ≈ Podesta

    His ancestors were probably called Pedester, but were Americanized on Ellis Island.

    • Greg C. says:

      Podesta is nearly an anagram of Pederast.

    • moroccan says:

      The name has italian origins, they used to call that a magistrate in medieval italian city-states. He could be called Washington or Adams and still be a crumb, virtue depends only on behavior, not fancy names.

  7. Everyday, it appears new links show up about Podesta. Here are the brothers and the police sketches of two men who abducted a kid in this Reddit thread https://www.reddit.com/r/The_Donald/comments/5bk3t6/what_the_fucking_fuck_is_someone_playing_a/

    These guys likely do more than simply host “art” shows.

    And so the MK Ultra program? They recruit children from multi generational incest families. It’s all out there. Most people don’t want to (or can’t) believe it. Kathy O’Brien, herself an MK victim rescued by CIA asset Mark Phillips, wrote Trance Formation of America in 1995. It is a hard read. Not only are the Clinton’s guilty but George HW, “Dick” Cheney and many other popular personalities. They are revolting, disgusting pedophiles and rapists. But you just can’t make this shit up. If it walks like a duck…

    The Church of Satan plays a huge role in this as well. It’s members are ubiquitous.

    Here’s an interesting video about spirit cooking, which touches on the topic of JR’s piece.

  10. I see only “hypocrisy”, Jon.

    I suspect the teens and their parents have been marginalised. An Australian “popular” newspaper exposed the hypocrisy about this this time or perhaps a little later.

    A virulent Australian Federal Police campaign against “child porn” (sic) located in the National Art Gallery was inspired by “Mary Whitehouse” style Queenslander “crusader” called Hetty something-or-other.

    A churlish “double page” spread crapped on and on and on about the pros and cons of a 14 year old girl who had (with her parents) allowed a noteworthy artist to paint or, rather, make a painting of her “unnatural” bare breasts. Who really cares?

    But irony teased the inquisitive, for only two pages on from the featureless feature was a piece about a young 16 year old man, an “Islander”, who’d been run over fatally attempting to cross a busy road to buy a case of beer for the big “final’s game” on telly.

    He had left behind a 15 year old “bride” and a bouncing baby boy.

    “Oh calamity” is all I can say!

    Best
