His paintings look like he used his middle leg to paint with.

Ugh. I saw one and I thought it was okay. My conscience is really bothering me about that now.

Perhaps Puhsaki will ask the “gallerist” about this money laundering.

They don’t even hide the corruption now. In your face is what it is called.

OF course this is all about funneling money. Same as the elites book deals.

Punter is one guy that you want to see get his comeuppance - but at this point I feel it’s going to be so bad I won’t want to see it.

*announcer voice* Well, you see, GodluvsAmerica, we don’t have to imagine the outrage! We at least see it almost every day, if we’re not experiencing it directly!

It’s in our face cause they feel emboldened by inaction. They need an attitude adjustment.

Yes, indeed.

How many truly small yet essential businesses (construction, small retail and restaurants) failed because they couldn’t get a PPP loan during the scamdemic? Yet an art gallery gets $150k?

No corruption there, eh?

I didn’t realize that these were prints and not paintings until recently. They’re essentially computer generated art which is then printed in large format, sometimes on on paper, sometimes on cloth. This is called giclee. He may add a few dabs to them..a lot of the “art” you get in tourist galleries is giclee…done in China.

Certainly not worth the prices he’s getting for them, and they are not really paintings or anything requiring artistic ability or skill,

Why not? It has been amply demonstrated that nothing will be done to them. We do nothing.

Anyone that could expose them is murdered — Epstein.

In addition to the COVID loans, Hunter’s gallery, w/ two employees, received nearly $80,000 in two payments in April 2020 and February 2021 under the SBA’s Paycheck Protection Program, funds meant to help businesses keep up with paychecks to employees during the pandemic.

All tolled, $580,000 in taxpayer-funded COVID relief aid was doled out to a gallery with only two employees, according to SBA records.

An art magazine pumped Hunter bigtime......showing him creating several works of “art.”

Yet none of the works shown in the gallery resemble the art the magazine reported on.


Hmmmmmm.......did the art magazine get Covid and Paycheck movies?

How would a creative person move $$$ from a government loan into the coffers of a client like a budding painter?

The ‘big guy’ helped a friend jump the line in a hospital emergency waiting room. He bragged about it.

That’s what commie sh*ts love - the ability to lord their power over everyday citizens. It’s pay to play... corrupt and the Biden’s and ‘elites’ wallow in their filth...

Probably, and clients paying $75,000 for giclee are definitely just making a political contribution.
