Duke Franz of Bavaria is the current head of the House of Wittelsbach and a Knight of the Sovereign Military Order of Malta. Another member is Prince Max the Duke of Bavaria and his wife is from the Scottish House of Douglas. Prince Max is a Knight of the Crusader knighthood called the Teutonic Order which is currently headed up by Grand Master Bruno Platter. Prince Luitpold of Bavaria is another member of this family. Princess Sophie of Liechtenstein is a Wittelsbach and married into the royal family of Liechtenstein. Prince Leopold of Bavaria and his son Prince Manuel of Bavaria are current members along with Leopold's brother Prince Aldabert of Bavaria. Prince Manuel's wife is from the Sayn-Wittgenstein-Berleburg family and the Chigi family of Rome are also married in with a Sayn-Wittgenstein branch. Prince Mario Chigi of Rome was investigated for tax evasion involving private banks in Liechtenstein just as the Wittelsbach family are presently married in with the House of Liechtenstein. The House of Wittelsbach have intermarried with many influential Holy Roman and Italian nobility as well as the former ruling House of Stuart through Queen Elizabeth Stuart of Bohemia who married Frederick V of the Palatinate-Wittelsbach. The Stuart family are allied with the Wittelsbach family and through the Stuart's Hudson's Bay Company and its tax contracts with the United States through the 1871 District of Columbia Organic act they claim a portion of ownership over the United States. The House of Stuart established the Hudson's Bay Company with its subsidiary Saks Fifth Avenue founded by Andrew Saks and Adam Gimbel who was a Bavarian Jew and really a court factor of the House of Wittelsbach. The Wittelsbach family have covert shares in Saks Fifth Avenue and also in Macy's. The Straus family were from Bavaria and purchased R. H. Macy & Co. or Macy's along with Abraham Abraham who was also from Bavaria. The Bloomingdale family migrated from Bavaria and founded Bloomingdale's which is owned by Macy's. The House of Wittelsbach built Mannheim Palace which cost them 300,000 gulden.
Richard Baker is the Chairman for Hudson's Bay Company and the founder of NRDC Equity Partners which owns large amounts of shares in HBC. NRDC Equity Partners also owns Galeria Kaufhof in Cologne, Germany. The House of Wittelsbach were Prince-Bishops of Cologne starting with Prince Ernest of Bavaria. Duke Franz of Bavaria is a Knight of the Equestrian Order of the Holy Sepulchre of Jerusalem like his father was. The Chigi family moved the headquarters of the Order of the Holy Sepulchre to the Palazzo Della Rovere in Rome and then married in with the Della Rovere family taking on their name with Chigi-Albani-Della Rovere. The Wittelsbach, Liechtenstein, Chigi, and Sayn-Wittgenstein families all have an alliance. Pope Benedict XVI was born in Bavaria. Joseph Ratzinger was a Nazi youth member and took the name Benedict to honor the Order of Saint Benedict also called the Black Monks. Prince Franz-Josef Wittelsbach of Bavaria is another member of this family and he is a Black Monk. The Wittelsbach family manage the Order of Saint Benedict and Benedictine Confederation. Notker Wolf, Gregory Polan, and Marcel Rooney are some current high level Black Monks. Levi Strauss was born in the Kingdom of Bavaria and created the clothing line Levi Strauss & Company. The former US National Security Adviser Henry Kissinger was from Bavaria. August Horch was from Bavaria and established the car company Horch out of Cologne, Germany now known as Audi which is currently located in Ingolstadt, Bavaria. These businessmen work for the House of Wittelsbach. Adolf Hitler served in the Bavarian army and the name Halder or its variant Halter were lower Bavarian nobility. Adolf Hitler was likely a descendent of the Bavarian Halter family and was appointed by the modernized Hoftag or Holy Roman princely council. The same families involved with the Nazis employed Jewish bankers. The House of Wittelsbach claimed to be against the Nazis however this was just a cover story. They were one of the families that engineered the Nazi movement. The House of Wittelsbach are involved with the Illuminati, Jesuits, Zionists, and Nazis. The House of Wittelsbach is pure evil.

'Being rich is my superpower': Tapes reveal Pratt's pursuit of the powerful
Richard Baker, Nick McKenzie and Hannah Bowers - OCTOBER 22, 2023
1/3
Secret tapes have revealed Australian billionaire Anthony Pratt's extraordinary private dealings with Donald Trump, a $1 million promised payment to Trump's lawyer, Rudy Giuliani, and financial dealings with then-Prince Charles in the hope he would become king.
After recent allegations Trump had leaked classified US submarine fleet details to Pratt, the covert recordings reveal the billionaire claimed the former president also disclosed non-public details about US military action in Iraq and a private conversation with Iraq's leader.
The tapes, along with internal documents from Pratt's company, Visy, and briefings from over a dozen sources in the United States and Australia, reveal how the packaging titan uses relationships with powerful figures to obtain an advantage in global business and politics.
Pratt gained access to Trump by spending hundreds of thousands of dollars on membership and event fees at the ex-president's private Florida club, Mar-a-Lago.
Pratt is heard on the tapes simultaneously admiring and besmirching Trump and comparing him to a mafia figure "with balls" who uses henchmen to do his dirty work.
In claiming he had paid a fee of "about a million bucks" to Giuliani in return for the Trump lawyer attending Pratt's birthday party, the Visy boss explained that "Rudy is someone I hope will be useful one day". This year, Trump and Giuliani were both charged with criminally subverting the 2020 presidential election.
King Charles is another powerful figure Pratt has cultivated - while he was a prince - with documents listing a "final payment" to "HRH" [His Royal Highness] of $182,000 in 2021.
"My superpower is that I am rich. So I am useful to him [Prince Charles], right?" Pratt said of Charles on the tape.
Leaked documents show how Pratt has also pursued local political influence, revealing consulting payments to two former prime ministers, Tony Abbott and Paul Keating.
Abbott was hired, the files show, weeks after losing his parliamentary seat in 2019, on a retainer of $8000 a month, while Keating's monthly retainer is $25,000.
In 2022, Pratt budgeted $1.2 million to pay his in-house government affairs and political adviser, Richard Dowdy, who is a former Abbott staffer.
Pratt has also privately claimed on covert recordings that he had donated $1 million to the Voice referendum's Yes campaign because he had fielded a request to do so from a senior adviser to Prime Minister Anthony Albanese.
The recordings, which have been obtained by this masthead and 60 Minutes, will reignite the scandal involving allegations Trump had disclosed potentially secret information on the American submarine fleet to Pratt that the Australian businessman later gossiped about.
Pratt did not respond to requests for comment via his media relations manager and hung up when called directly.
Secrets and power
The alleged submarine disclosures by Trump, revealed by a US media outlet, are under investigation and could result in Pratt being called to testify against the former president. They have also made Trump and Pratt's relationship the focus of intense media scrutiny. Trump is the Republican Party's frontrunner presidential candidate for 2024.
On the covertly made recordings obtained by 60 Minutes and this masthead of Pratt talking to several people, there is no mention of submarines, but Pratt does claim Trump's disclosures at Mar-a-Lago were frequently shocking.
"He's got this ability to say outrageous things non-stop. He's outrageous," Pratt said in one recording. "He just says whatever the f— he wants. And he loves to shock people."
On the same tape, Pratt describes how in 2019, Trump told him he had just ordered the US military to conduct an airstrike on Iranian-linked militants in Iraq. He then disclosed a private phone call he'd had with the leader of Iraq.
"It hadn't even been on the news yet and he [Trump] said: 'I just bombed Iraq today and the president of Iraq called me up and said, "You just levelled my city".'"
Pratt says Trump then boasted about his response: "I [Trump] said to him [Iraq's leader], 'OK, what are you going to do about it?' "
According to Pratt, Trump then spoke of the infamous conversation he had with President Volodymyr Zelensky in which he pressured the Ukraine leader to investigate then Democrat presidential contender Joe Biden's son.
A covert recording captures Pratt stating: "Trump said, 'You know that Ukraine phone call, that was nothing compared to what I usually do.' He said: 'That Ukraine phone call, that's nothing compared to what we usually talk about'."
Pratt also claimed that Trump described how his phone calls with Russian President Vladimir Putin were tapped by authorities.

Andrew Robb quits China-linked firm before foreign interference law kicks in
Nick McKenzie and Richard Baker - February 19, 2019
1/2
Former trade minister Andrew Robb has quietly ceased his controversial $880,000 per annum consultancy with a company closely linked to the Chinese government, as the deadline looms for lobbyists for overseas state interests to sign up to Australia's new foreign influence register.
Mr Robb's consultancy with the leaseholder of the Darwin Port, Landbridge, was trumpeted by the Chinese-government aligned company in 2016, but became intensely controversial when an investigation by The Age, The Sydney Morning Herald and Four Corners revealed his fee, and that he had joined the company straight after quitting parliament.
It's estimated that Mr Robb pocketed more than $2 million plus expenses from Landbridge. A company document revealed that Mr Robb's consulting contract was so vague and ill-defined he would be paid even if he did nothing.
Mr Robb has confirmed that he has left Landbridge for the time being because, "at this stage, Landbridge has no other projects relevant for me to assist".
"I had been commissioned by Landbridge for well over a year to prepare a comprehensive report on ways that Australia's world class health industry could assist with a major improvement of China's public health system," Mr Robb wrote in answer to questions.
"Just before Landbridge had an opportunity to formally present my report to Chinese authorities, they were advised not to bother because the relationship between the Australian and Chinese governments 'had become so toxic' that the report would be binned."
He described the situation as "reviewable," suggesting he may begin working for the company again in future.
Mr Robb joins former foreign minister Bob Carr and former Victorian premier John Brumby in leaving lucrative roles with companies or, in Mr Carr's case, a think tank, founded by businessmen with strong ties to the Chinese Communist Party.
Mr Carr recently announced he was stepping down as director of the Australia-China Relations Institute, which was founded by controversial billionaire political donor Huang Xiangmo. Mr Huang has been blocked from entering Australia and has had his permanent residency cancelled by the Department of Home Affairs after advice from ASIO that he may engage in foreign interference activities on behalf of the Chinese government.
Mr Brumby announced in February he was quitting the Australian board of Huawei, the Chinese telco accused by security agencies of posing a security risk to western communications infrastructure.
Mr Brumby, Mr Carr and Mr Robb have previously insisted that the Chinese government has no tangible influence in the organisations they worked for, despite evidence the organisations' founders were aligned with the Chinese Communist Party willingly, or because of the way the party-state controls seemingly private companies.
