News about Marjorie Merriweather Post

Apple TV's glamorous new hit show 'Palm Royale' provides a glimpse into the gilded but conniving world of Palm Beach high society in 1969 - but who were the real women to dominate the social scene that year? Estée Lauder, Marjorie Merriweather Post, and No. Drexel were among the posh beach city's most popular Americans of the time. Now, stunning time capsule photographs meticulously preserved in the state archives reveal a glimpse behind the curtain on what life was really like for those on the scene as they adorned themselves in lavish jewelry and draped themselves in expensive jewelry.

This 13,000-square-foot home on South Ocean Boulevard boasts six bedrooms and eight and a half bathrooms. The three-story home stands on an approximately half-acre plot of land, with stunning oceanfront views and private beach access. According to the listing company Luxury Portfolio International, the house's other services include a sauna, steam room, spa, walk-in wine cellar, jacuzzi, and lap pool. The owner will be able to former President Donald Trump's private club, Mar-a-Lago, which is just a two-minute walk from the mansion.

A 1958 Florida mansion is up for auction for $37.5 million. Marion Sims Wyeth, a New York architect who mapped exterior features for buildings such as the Mar-a-Lago and La Claridad, crafted the 13,000 square foot Palm Beach home. The 7-bedroom, 13-bathroom home has an elevator, a formal dining room, and a stunning outdoor space with a patio and a 40' x 20' pool. In 1998, a homeowner first sold the mansion for $4.3 million, and in 2004 it was sold again for $7.3 million.

NICK CANDY: The first thing that struck me as stepping into Donald Trump's opulent Mar-a-Lago resort in April last year was how much 'wow factor' the place has. It must be one of America's most unique and remarkable buildings. Each room is decorated in the Mediterranean style with exquisite craftsmanship, ironwork, sculptures, and antiques. The floors and walls are adorned with gilt-carved ceilings, majestic chandeliers, and Spanish tiles. Holly and I, who had been invited to dine with Nigel Farage, couldn't help but be amazed. I've seen my fair share of stunning real estate around the world, starting in the 1920s for socialite Marjorie Merriweather Post, then America's richest woman. She invested $7 million (£98 million) on it, the equivalent to about $120 million (£98 million) today.

The former AG called the allegations against Trump in two federal lawsuits "serious," and suggested home detention as a possibility if the former president were to serve a prison term. Trump should not be barred from prosecution during his investigation, according to Barr, who is also 'lethargic' for refusing to endorse his allegations of widespread election manipulation.

Justice Thomas of the Supreme Court wants to update his financial disclosure to reflect the selling of land to billionaire Harland Crow, who has also sponsored lavish vacations. In 2014, Thomas sold the house and two empty lots to Crow. Crow said he wanted to build a "public museum" for Thomas, who has also cruised Asia and has regularly hosted at his Upstate New York vacation home.

According to ProPublica, a Texas billionaire Crow, who has entertained Thomas with extravagant trips and bizarre yet expensive gifts, bought a series of houses in Savannah, Georgia, including a single-story home and two lots. It's the first documented direct financial transaction between Thomas and Crow. According to a tax statement and deed from October 2014, the corporation acquired the properties from co-owner Thomas, his mother, and his late brother's relatives. The justice's elderly mother lived at the home and continued to do so under Crow's ownership. Contractors got to work on tens of thousands of dollars, including a carport, a fixed roof, and a new fence and gates shortly after the purchase was confirmed.

Justice Clarence Thomas has released a rare statement in response to a bombshell study revealing his appreciation of luxury travel from billionaire donor Harlan Crow over decades. 'We've been on several family trips during the more than a quarter century we've known them,' Thomas said of the Crows, who he described as 'dearest friends.' On a trip to Indonesia, a ProPublica study explored the luxury jet travel and megayacht that ferried the Thomases. Thomas takes the Crows on a year-round holiday. He said he sought help from 'colleagues' and discovered that the trips were not'reportable.' They didn't appear on his media forms, and they did not appear on his disclosure pages.

Democrats are being outraged by a recent research that explores Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas' close friendship with billionaire Harlan Crow. Thomas had a habit of taking annual vacations with Crow, but failed to disclose that travel plans could cost hundreds of thousands of dollars. Crow and Thomas met in the 1990s, a few years after Thomas took the High Court, and the two have had a close friendship ever since - Crow once gave Thomas' wife Ginni $500,000 to start a Tea Party-related group. According to the Dallas Morning News, the 74-year-old billionaire real estate developer who has lavished gifts and trips on Thomas is the chairman of Crow Holdings, a highly profitable private investment company with almost $29 million in assets.

Justice Clarence Thomas has travelled around Indonesia on a megayacht and holidayed at the Adirondacks estate owned by real estate magnate Harlan Crow. Thomas and his partner, Ginni, would have paid out of pocket for the 2019 trip, according to a ProPublica analysis, if Thomas paid out of pocket for it. The trips weren't announced as gifts. Justices on the Supreme Court aren't bound to the same code of conduct as lower court federal judges. Thomas has been a regular visitor to Crow's Adirondacks resort, Camp Topridge, which was once owned by the State of New York.
