As I said on another thread, the CIA and FBI have used multiple unsavory characters as assets for years. The FBI had Whitey Bulger on their payroll, and probably plenty more wanted criminals. The CIA hired several known Nazi war criminals to spy on our enemies. One, Reinhard Gehlen, Hitler’s top spy ended up running Intelligence for the West German government. The Butcher of Lyon, Klaus Barbie was another. The CIA even helped him and his family escape from Germany and settle in South America. They lied to French officials, claiming they had no idea where he was. France wanted to try him on war crimes. By the time the CIA dumped their Nazi assets and Barbie, the well known Nazi Hunters Serge and Beate Klarsfeld were hot on his trail. He was finally taken into custody, but by that time the death penalty had been abolished in France, so he died in custody.

I watched a series on Apple TV called New Look. I had no idea Coco Chanel was a NAZI sympathizer, actually did Missions for Nazis, wanted NAZIs to “take care” of her business partners who were Jewish or that she had to hide out in Switzerland
