James Madison, the ‘OG’ of DOGE Madison in Federalist No. 62 recognized that the creation of voluminous laws and regulations “poisons the blessing of liberty itself.”

A low concrete bench with a bush behind it and an apartment building beyond it

In 2022, employees from the Port of San Francisco discovered 48 abandoned artworks in Crane Cove Park on this bench. Now those works, many of them by an obscure but important Jewish artist Ary Lochakov, are headed back to Paris.

They will become part of the permanent collection at the Museum of Jewish Art and History, a beautiful end to a thrilling story. But is it the end? New information continues to emerge all the time, as my story coming out next week will detail. #lochakov #lochakow #art #mystery #sf #sanfrancisco
