New from me @VanityFair (1/5): I spent part of the past year and a half investigating Germany’s wealthiest person, Klaus-Michael Kuehne, and his cover-up of his family’s and company’s Nazi history and Holocaust profiteering.
vanityfair.com/news/story/ric… (2/5) Kuehne is 87 years old, doesn't have heirs, and will leave his fortune, estimated at $44 billion, to his family foundation, making it one of world's largest charities. He also carries a dark family secret. vanityfair.com/news/story/ric…

(1/6) This week, Robert Habeck, Germany's vice-chancellor & economy minister, spoke to a German tabloid about the Nazi past of his great-grandfather, Walter Granzow. In a bizarre twist of history, Granzow is a minor but key character in Nazi Billionaires.. bunte.de/stars/star-lif… (2/6) Granzow was actually the former brother-in-law of Günther Quandt, patriarch of what is today Germany's wealthiest clan, part of which controls BMW & are the largest CDU donors. In 1921, Quandt appointed Granzow as the caretaker of his estate Severin in northeast Germany.
