Every time I watch any Pete Hegseth speech, it's clear the main audience for said speech is his own insecurities.

I have an earnest post (sorry!) My son lost his grandma this week and when he came back to his dorm after the funeral he found a sympathy card signed by his roommates and a bunch of other kids from the dorm. This kind of thing simply did not happen in my generation. The kids are really alright.

A color portait of Alexander the Great, king of the ancient empire of Macedonia, pictured here as a late 20th century business executive. And indeed, a distant but direct descendant of Alexander the Great manages the Clinton Street location of small carwash franchise in the greater Cleveland area. Al, as he’s known, sighs in back office of the carwash, running his hands through his thinning hair as he looks at the month’s disappointing numbers again. At night Al dreams he’s at the head of great army, a man who solves every problem with a sword.

In this great conversation with Natasha Roth-Rowland and Valentina Pisanty, I talk about the weaponization of antisemitism by Trump, Netanyahu, and other autocratic populists who feed on conspiratorial frameworks, and the danger this poses to the fight against actual, rampant antisemitism.

I managed to trace most of these paintings to their original owners. Serbia continues to argue nothing to see here, this is "just reparation." This flies in the face of any contemporary understanding of restitution especially in clear cases of Nazi looted art!
Thanks for following. Buy my book!

But I have receipts. I found lists of this shipment in the archives which partly show where the paintings were taken from. A few paintings were taken from the Rothschild collection in Paris, for example.

In 2016, Italian government determined some of the art in this collection was looted by Nazis in Italy and should be returned, including this Carpaccio. The National Museum was 🤷‍♀️

But YU authorities did not care, and argued even if this was a mistake, it was "just reparation" for massive war losses YU endured. The paintings have been at the National Museum (now of Serbia) ever since, with no provenance acknowledgment.

The valuable paintings were by Titian, Tintoretto, Carpaccio, Robert, and were happily accepted by the National Museum in Belgrade (then called Art Museum) in 1949. The officers in Munich figured out quickly they sent the wrong package as claims to these same paintings came from France, Austria, etc

Amidst the chaos at CCP, a Croatian con-man Ante Topic Mimara appeared in Munich in 1948 and said he was a representative of Yugoslavia. He made a list of art he claimed was looted from YU. The officers at Munich believed him and put 50 paintings and other art onto 4 trucks that went to Belgrade.

As the war was ending, Nazis moved this hoard into various hiding spots in Germany, Austria and elsewhere. After liberation, the Allies consolidated these discovered artworks into a Central Collection Point (CCP) in Munich, and started to figure out who the art belonged to and how to send it back.

I begin this chapter with a familiar story of the massive art looting by the Nazis, who stole from the Jews, of course, but also from various museums and collections in all the countries they occupied. Peak looting was in France, as that was where most valuable art was. They hoarded at the Louvre👇
