I just read an account of the toilet seat (with lid) from Adolph Hitler's private bathroom at Berghof, his Bavarian retreat in the Alps, being sold at auction for $18,750. At the end of World War II, a soldier named Ragnvald Borch was one the first Americans who entered Hitler's bunker and while his buddies looted all the good stuff, his only sad prize was Hitler's toilet seat. He shipped it home to New Jersey where it hung in his basement until his son recently put it up for auction.
It is rumored that the anonymous buyer of the Fuhrer's only throne was in fact Stephen Miller, the recent adviser to ex-president Donald Trump and designer of the administration's policy for separating parents from their children. According to a source close to Miller, the seat that once supported the Fuhrer as he contemplated important movements and that later hung in that New Jersey basement for 75 years, will now become a picture frame for the owner's favorite ruler and will hang (with proper lighting) in the Miller's master bedroom.
To obtain the tax write-off allowed for designating his bedroom a National Monument, Miller will open his home to the public for one day (April 15) every year.
