In November 2013 Malaysian megafraudster Jho Low used one of the hundreds of millions of dollars he diverted from a Goldman Sachs bond offering to buy Andy Warhol's Round Jackie (1964), at Sotheby's. He then gave it to Swizz Beatz, who turned it over to the Feds in 2020, who auctioned it off in 2021.
images: Andy Warhol, Round Jackie, 1964, silkscreen on gold paint on linen, 17.75 in., sold at Sotheby's in Nov. 2013; Round Jackie unboxing at the US Marshals auction at Gaston & Sheehan, TX, in Feb. 2021.

Herşeyin üzerime geldiyi o anlarda içime kapandığım zamanlar oluyor.Böyle olduğunda aklıma gelen tek şey O'na olan hayranlığım.Bir insan bir yaşama bu kadar olayı nasıl sığdıra bilir diye dehşete kapılıyorum.O her güldüyünde:"Başardın,kaptan",diyorum içimden ve yeniden hayata tutunuyorum.Başarılı olmak istememin tek nedeni O.Düştüğümde her defasında ayağa kalkmamın nedeni O.
Ne kadar zamanım kaldı,bilmiyorum.Zaten her saniyemi harcamak istediyim insan da O.
Sadece gözlerine bakıb:"Teşekkür ederim,bana bir amaç uğruna yaşamayı öyretdiyin için." söyleyeceyim ana dek yaşamak istiyorum.
Ben bu Adama hiç kimseye/hiç birşeye duymadığım kadar aşk doluyum,anladım.
ありがとうキャプテン💚.

KUALA LUMPUR: Nooryana Najwa, daughter of Datuk Seri Najib Razak, has called her father’s recent court ruling “unfair,” claiming he is the sole person facing punishment for the 1MDB scandal, despite the involvement of many others. Real criminals are still free, she meant. The High Court recently ordered Najib to defend himself against four charges of using his position to secure RM2.3 billion in…

"Once upon a time, the infamous 1MDB scandal rocked the world, leaving Malaysia in turmoil. But today, there's a glimmer of hope as the US announces the return of $100m in assets linked to the scandal. From Warhol's iconic pop art to a lavish Parisian flat, these treasures will soon be back where they belong. A tale of justice, redemption, and the power of cooperation. #1MDB #Malaysia #Warhol #Monet #JusticeServed"

if there's anything I learn about recent election in America is that media projection is BS and we'll just have to wait until all the votes are counted
#just voted for my country today and the corrupt government is projected to win#we'll never know for sure until the election is done#pray for us i guess#if we have to spend 4 more years under the currently governing coalition i legit might move to ireland next year#its just. really bad.#like. trump kinda bad.#we just put our corrupt prime minister in jail this year bc of 1MDB scandal and if his ally wins he's going to get released really soon#chrmz.txt
