Yesterday we mentioned that somebody was auctioning off ADOLPH HITLER's toilet seat --today it's ANGELINA JOLIE who's selling former British Prime Minister WINSTON CHURCHILL's only painting that he did during World War II. The painting was given to PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT during a conference in 1943, and at some point it made its way into Angelina's collection. Experts believe it could go for as much as $3.4 million dollars at the auction at Christie's on March first.

I was brainwashed and manipulated into submission" and added "I am done living in fear of retaliation, slander, or blackmail."
