LEADERS EMBRACE EARLY VOTING, BUT WILL THEIR BASE GET ON BOARD? Former President Trump has said that until Republicans gain power and can change the law, they have “no choice” but to support voting by mail. 5 min read Travis Dove for The New York Times WHERE ARE THE 2024 CANDIDATES? Anjali HuynhReporting on national politics With the Republican presidential field mostly set, candidates — including President Biden — are ramping up their travel. After Donald Trump’s latest indictment, 2024 hopefuls will fan across the country this week. Here’s where to watch → Rachel Mummey for The New York Times Biden is headed to California on Monday, where he’ll hold fund-raisers with Democrats like Gov. Gavin Newsom and tech billionaires. He has not held any public campaign events since announcing his re-election bid in April, though he spoke in Philadelphia on Saturday for a big union endorsement. Biden’s California visit is an attempt to bolster his campaign amid muted excitement among his base. Al Drago for The New York Times Just over 150 miles from Biden, Gov. Ron DeSantis of Florida will make his own appeal to California donors. After a mix of public appearances and fund-raising events in Nevada, he’ll spend Monday and Tuesday at a series of fund-raisers in central California. These appearances are part of an effort to combat some Republican concerns that his strength as an alternative to Trump has diminished in recent months. Rachel Mummey for The New York Times Trump is again taking his indictment grievances directly to voters. On Monday, he is slated to appear on Fox News for an interview, the first since his arraignment. And on Sunday he’ll headline a dinner in a Michigan swing county once dominated by Republicans. Trump is seeking to woo Midwestern voters, whose support has waned over the years: While he won Michigan in 2016, that preceded a series of Republican losses in 2018, 2020 and 2022. Doug Mills/The New York Times Primary season wouldn’t be complete without a slew of visits to early voting states. Former Gov. Nikki Haley and Senator Tim Scott of South Carolina will hold town halls in their state this week. And Larry Elder, Vivek Ramaswamy and Robert Kennedy Jr. will attend the Porcupine Freedom Festival in New Hampshire. These candidates — many polling in the single digits — hope to capture momentum and elevate their standing. Cj Gunther/EPA, via Shutterstock A flock of Republican presidential contenders will gather in Washington over the weekend for a national Faith and Freedom Coalition conference. There, speakers include Trump, DeSantis, former Vice President Mike Pence, Chris Christie and Asa Hutchinson of Arkansas. The event gives prospects, especially lesser-known ones, a chance to stack their platforms against one another to roomfuls of social conservatives.

From an analysis of pandemic-age political organizing to a cultural history of butts and an array of imaginative queer fiction (happy Pride month!), this week’s picks have you covered. Here are six paperbacks we recommend → Let This Radicalize You: Organizing and the Revolution of Reciprocal Care, by Kelly Hayes and Mariame Kaba Two seasoned activists, looking at lessons learned from the Covid-19 pandemic and the George Floyd protests, offer a blueprint for creating social movements that are grounded in compassion. Drawing on a wide range of interviews, they invite their readers “to build, to experiment and to act.” GODS OF WANT: Stories, by K-Ming Chang The haunting, yearnful stories in this collection — including the O’Henry Award-winning “Xífù” — consider the psychic and physical transformations involved in emigration and love, from a Taiwanese former sex worker who envies her lesbian daughter’s distance from motherhood to otter-like creatures who chase two Chinese girls down a flooding Las Vegas street. BUTTS: A Backstory, by Heather Radke This cultural history spans almost 300 years of societal significance accumulated by and imposed on the human behind. “Don’t be fooled by the cheeky peach emoji on Radke’s cover,” Lauren Christensen wrote in our review. “The author’s account of the female butt is in many cases a narrative of physical suffering.” The Kingdom of Sand, by Andrew Holleran The unnamed, aging narrator of this novel lives alone in a house in Florida he once shared with his mother. He reminisces, walks along a swamp-like lake and befriends a conservative gay man named Earl. Eschewing big, dramatic events, Holleran renders the quotidian passage of time in meticulous, heart-wrenching detail. Ways of Being: Animals, Plants, Machines: The Search for a Planetary Intelligence, by James Bridle Amid the rise of fossil fuel companies using A.I. to extract natural resources, a philosopher argues for a redefinition of “intelligence” away from corporate processes and toward a breadth of plant, animal and microorganism functions, which constitute “a new ecology of technology.” Rainbow Rainbow: Stories, by Lydia Conklin From “A Fearless Moral Inventory,” in which a bisexual librarian resists her sex addiction while caring for some ferrets, to “Sunny Talks,” where a 15-year-old’s chaperone at a trans YouTube convention struggles with their own gender identity, this collection is a celebration and exploration of the liminality of queer life.
