Kamala Harris will be the next President of the United States. I pledge my full support to ensure her victory in November. Now more than ever, it is crucial that our party and country swiftly unite to defeat Donald Trump and the threat to American democracy. Let’s get to work.

Joe Biden’s presidency has been transformational. He accomplished more in the past four years — to bring back jobs, stand up to big corporations, and build an economy that works for all of us — than we have been able to get done in the last forty. He deserves full credit for beating Donald Trump in 2020, and his selfless decision today gives us our best shot at doing it again in 2024. While Donald Trump tried to tear down our democracy to maintain his grip on power, Joe Biden willingly stepped aside in order to protect our democracy. President Biden’s selfless action is a profound gift to the people of the United States — and it’s on all of us not to waste it. I endorse Kamala Harris for President. She is a proven fighter who has been a national leader in safeguarding consumers and protecting access to abortion. As a former prosecutor, she can press a forceful case against allowing Donald Trump to regain the White House. We have many talented people in our party, but Vice President Harris is the person who was chosen by the voters to succeed Joe Biden if needed. She can unite our party, take on Donald Trump, and win in November.

@dbvisel And who can forget Scritti Politti’s 1981 b-side “Jacques Derrida”?artforum.com/columns/1981-s…

@ClbyChamberlain There's a torn piece of a translation of Lacan on the cover of this: discogs.com/release/55939-… – and the back of this: discogs.com/master/48969-S… seems like it's a riff on Duchamp's rejected cover for Vogue?

Oh for the days when top-40 albums casually referenced Claude Lévi-Strauss.

Anicka Yi, Josh Kline, Nolan Simon, Trevor Shimizu, Ajay Kurian: Over the past 13 years, 47 Canal has had probably the best batting average of any young gallery in town. I checked in with its proprietors as they were moving to SoHo. news.artnet.com/market/47-cana…

Apropos of nothing, here’s George Maciunas’s “U.S.A. Surpasses All the Genocide Records!” (ca. 1966) to mark that “Fluxus Administration: George Maciunas and the Art of Paperwork” comes out next week. @UChicagoPress

Very wonderful news: the rigorous, freethinking art historian Joan Kee has been named director of NYU's Institute of Fine Arts nyu.edu/about/news-pub…
