CLINTON STRATEGERY - "Inside Clinton's plan to win over millennials: Sanders former outreach workers, digital strategy - and Bernie himself - are keys to winning the youth vote," by Darren Samuelsohn: "Clinton's allies in the environmental, labor and women's health communities are tapping into the same data, digital and other messaging tactics that Sanders used to such great effect in galvanizing millions of millennial supporters." http://go.politicoemail.com/?qs=6bb02f22510e67666668a303ca4309f4e518df9df627bc4ba5db33a631a7aaa9

BUZZ -- "End of conservative Supreme Court: Clarence Thomas may be next to leave," by U.S. News' Paul Bedard: "Thomas, a reliable conservative vote on the Supreme Court, is mulling retirement after the presidential election, according to court watchers. Thomas ... has been considering retirement for a while and never planned to stay until he died ... He likes to spend summers in his RV with his wife. ... Should Thomas leave, [conservatives'] slight majority would continue if Donald Trump becomes president. ... Clinton ... would get the chance to flip two Republican seats, giving the liberals a 6-3 majority." http://go.politicoemail.com/?qs=6bb02f22510e67661c48ce507881e80e7c66415cf026b77217d1906fbab4f40a

They personify values-fierce competitiveness, love of the political game, journalistic integrity-that animate our entire publication. They will be joined by a friendly face, Daniel Lippman, who will be a force multiplier for Jake and Anna just as he was for Mike. ...

"Blake Hounshell ... is taking the lead for the newsroom in managing this transition. ... The nine years of Mike's Playbook reign have been marked by dramatic changes in how news is consumed and how influential people make news and wage arguments. ... Thanks to the efforts of folks like Lauren Kaplan, Chris Buddie, and Steve Stiles, the new Playbook will also have a sleek, updated look and feel, with an improved reading experience and cool features like the ability to share entire sections on social media. We'll also be rolling out a new digital home and new social accounts for Playbook in the weeks to come, taking it from the inbox to anywhere else our readers want to consume it. ...

"I want to thank Robert Allbritton for accepting my recommendation on this important decision on Playbook; Jake, Anna and Daniel for embracing this formidable assignment; and Mike for helping illuminate the right path for all of us at POLITICO in so many ways, as journalist, as co-founder, and as friend."

HOPE HICKS PROFILE - "The Mystifying Triumph of Hope Hicks, Donald Trump's Right-Hand Woman," by Olivia Nuzzi in GQ: "Hicks ... is a hugger and a people pleaser, with long brown hair and green eyes, a young woman of distinctly all-American flavor... And yet Hicks has, almost by accident, helped architect the strangest and least polite campaign in modern American history. ... Hicks's job-a sui generis role of outsize importance that she half invents on the fly-involves keeping the media at bay and operating as Trump's chief gatekeeper. But she's also summoned in critical moments of confusion to play instigator and score-settler. ...

"'If you see her phone going'-[Trump] raised both hands and mimicked Hicks answering several devices-'"This is Hope. This is Hope. This is Hope."' He hung up the make-believe phones. 'She gets a call a minute, probably,' he said, seemingly pleased with this antiquated barometer of his own popularity. ... In Greenwich, Connecticut, as a kid, she was an athlete and a model who-after appearing in a Ralph Lauren ad-told a local magazine she intended to be an actress. By high school she was swimming, rowing, and captaining the lacrosse team. ...

"[W]hen she's not traveling on Trump Force One, Hicks stays in New York, in a Trump apartment provided by the campaign." http://go.politicoemail.com/?qs=6bb02f22510e676698e36380fc77695041446fe69b65013bde043c3983a5f748

DRIVING THE DAY -- "Biden asserts Trump could trigger surge in anti-Americanism," by AP's Josh Lederman: "Warning of a potential surge in anti-Americanism, Vice President Joe Biden [will tear] into Donald Trump's views on foreign policy and urging the country not to follow the presumptive Republican nominee down a path of isolationism and bigotry. Biden, in a speech Monday to the Center for New American Security, planned to deliver a point-by-point rebuttal of Trump's ideas on immigration, terrorism and relations with Russia." http://go.politicoemail.com/?qs=6bb02f22510e6766ed5981f72ec0bbb8773cae7caade39a2044fea642f6ac8d7

MADELEINE ALBIGHT on Time.com, "Turning Refugees Into Enemies Is Self-Defeating: Donald Trump's hateful response to Orlando is un-American": Trump's "overriding focus has been to blame refugees and immigrants for what happened. ... This offends me deeply because 70 years ago, I was one of those foreigners. My family had been forced to leave the land of my birth, Czechoslovakia, after it was taken over by communists. The United States beckoned to us as a land of opportunity, and we never stopped being grateful for the chance we had to build a new life in freedom." http://go.politicoemail.com/?qs=6bb02f22510e67662cf383931702dd05b3d05a451e337e78f4d5eb376c0cb8c6

2016 PLAYERS -- "Clinton to add Jacob Leibenluft, Obama's long-time economic adviser, to campaign team," by CNBC's John Harwood: "Leibenluft, deputy director of the National Economic Council, will become a senior policy adviser as Clinton prepares to fill out her economic agenda for the general election. ... Leibenluft has served on Obama's economic team from the beginning of the president's first term. Among his areas of focus have been policies on job training, apprenticeships and the minimum wage." http://go.politicoemail.com/?qs=6bb02f22510e6766680c50f477add51442dce653dfc74713353a564c69a640f8

He also was the communications director for former Vice President Dick Cheney, and worked for Paul D. Wolfowitz. ... Mr. Kellems was an adviser to Senator Dan Coats, Republican of Indiana, and worked with former Senator Fred D. Thompson." http://go.politicoemail.com/?qs=6bb02f22510e6766b56a45fbbc459760bb38a477b0387ebf658f600bcd4d8f1c

COMING ATTRACTIONS -- "When Trump Meets Clinton, No TV Record in America Will be Safe," by Bloomberg's Esmé E Deprez: "The Ali versus Frazier-level match-ups could rival the Super Bowl and bust the presidential-debate viewership record set by Ronald Reagan and Jimmy Carter in 1980. ... [T]hey're so despised in some quarters they're mesmerizing." With a great kicker quote http://go.politicoemail.com/?qs=6bb02f22510e676678bb1239256824de3bc85c78c8a712572d4a23e002abca6e

BERNIE TALKER - WashPost p. A1, top of col. 1, "Race may be over, but guard detail isn't: Sanders continues to get costly protection from the Secret Service," by John Wagner in Burlington, Vt.: "Sanders retains one of the trappings of a top-notch candidate: A team of agents still guards him at his home, where they've constructed a small watch station on the property. They travel with him on commercial and charter flights and use a motorcade to whisk him through cities he visits. And they marched alongside him during a gay-pride event here in his home town after the Orlando shootings. Such round-the-clock protection can cost taxpayers more than $38,000 a day."

MOOD MUSIC -- "Decade after housing peaked: Owners richer, renters hurting," by AP's Josh Boak in Mount Pleasant, S.C.: "For many longtime owners, times are good. They're enjoying the benefits of growing equity and reduced mortgage payments from ultra-low rates. But for America's growing class of renters, surging costs, stagnant pay and rising home values have made it next to impossible to save enough to buy. The possible consequences are bleak for a nation already grappling with economic inequality." http://go.politicoemail.com/?qs=6bb02f22510e67667eec93f436f7246c86968747a180142de5246c56dd554560

NOW CELEBRATES 50 YEARS on Thursday - "Feminism: NOW Turns 50," by AP National Writer David Crary: "[W]hen a small group of activists founded the National Organization for Women, the immediate issue that motivated them was sex discrimination in employment. ... Flash forward to today: Women comprise close to 50 percent of enrollment in U.S. medical schools and law schools. One-third of federal judges are women, compared to just a handful in the 1960s. The U.S military is opening all combat jobs to women." http://go.politicoemail.com/?qs=6bb02f22510e67661d6df4565507a64a6bce211ada81179bc59e89fbad439ae2

POWER PLAYERS - USA Today p. 1A, "FBI chief [James] Comey stakes out unusually public profile on biggest issues," by Kevin Johnson: "Comey, 55, ... bluntly acknowledged law enforcement's fraught relationship with racial and ethnic communities in addresses at Georgetown University and Birmingham, Ala., and has suggested that less-aggressive policing may be contributing to troubling spikes in violent crime in some parts of the country - a position that has put him at odds with his boss, Attorney General Loretta Lynch, and even the White House. ... He has drawn the wrath of the tech industry and privacy advocates earlier this year as the face of the government's legal battle with Apple."

EVAN OSNOS in The New Yorker, "Making a Killing: The business and politics of selling guns": "High-profile massacres can summon our attention, and galvanize demands for change, but in 2015 fatalities from mass shootings amounted to just two per cent of all gun deaths. Most of the time, when Americans shoot one another, it is impulsive, up close, and apolitical. None of that has hurt the gun business. In recent years, in response to three kinds of events-mass shootings, terrorist attacks, and talk of additional gun control-gun sales have broken records." http://go.politicoemail.com/?qs=6bb02f22510e6766ff418fbbba7b7fa12ef815651705edb389798559ee8be358

SNEAK PEEK - CHARLES HOMANS in a "First Words" column in next Sunday's N.Y. Times Magazine, "The 'Active Shooter' Is Never Far Away": "There are some cultural milestones that you don't even know exist until you trip over them: the moment, for instance, when an 'active shooter' becomes the kind of thing a furniture manufacturer might factor into its product design in the same way it considers ergonomics or biodegradability. The migration of the term 'active shooter' from law-enforcement training manuals into the world of cable-news chyrons, Twitter rumors and uploaded cellphone videos is itself an indicator of how a once-anomalous tragedy has become just another event to prepare for."

MONEY HONEYS - "Charles Koch gives $3 million to boost GOP - but not Trump: Billionaire gives to super PAC seeking to protect the Republican Senate majority," by Ken Vogel: "Koch's donation [to Freedom Partners Action Fund] marks his first significant check of the 2016 election cycle. ... [The brothers'] coolness to Trump, which fueled concerns on the right that the network would scale back its political spending across the board, appeared unchanged even after one of the brothers' top aides, Mark Holden, met [last] week at the campaign's Manhattan headquarters with Trump, his campaign manager and other officials." http://go.politicoemail.com/?qs=6bb02f22510e67664c0ba9ab67b051781f105b79afbd3a8b23d0a0a41c8f4e49

THINGS TRUMP SAYS -- "Trump and the Art of the Nasty Political Nickname: Think he's the first to hand out vicious epithets to his opponents? Just ask 'Tricky Dick,' 'the Beast of Buffalo' and 'Rutherfraud,'" by Joseph Cummins, author of "Anything for a Vote: Dirty Tricks, Cheap Shots and October Surprises in U.S. Presidential Campaigns," for Politico Magazine: "Democrats today don't appear to possess the requisite adolescent glee necessary to finding just the right few words that will stick like napalm ... Back in 1800, Federalists loved to refer to Thomas Jefferson as 'Generalissimo Jefferson,' underscoring the fact that beneath that Republican veneer beat the heart of an aristocrat."

JILL LEPORE in The New Yorker, "The Woman Card: How feminism and antifeminism created Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump": "If elected, Clinton will become the first female President in the nation's history. She will also join John Quincy Adams, James Monroe, Martin Van Buren, and James Buchanan as the only Presidents to have served both in the Senate and as Secretary of State. If she loses the election to Donald Trump, he will be the first man elected President who has never served the public either in government or in the military." http://go.politicoemail.com/?qs=6bb02f22510e6766f81904def68948be28eaecafa4a8aa6883414e7212e01668

** A message from the Annie E. Casey Foundation: Tomorrow, June 21, the Annie E. Casey Foundation will release its 2016 KIDS COUNT Data Book, an annual assessment of child well-being nationally and across the 50 states, as well as in D.C. and Puerto Rico. Using an index of 16 indicators, the report ranks states on overall child well-being and on economic well-being, education, health and family and community factors. Last year, Minnesota earned the top spot, while Mississippi fell to the bottom. Will both stay the same this year? Read our report to find out! The 2016 KIDS COUNT Data Book focuses on America's children in the years following the country's economic recovery and offers
recommendations for how policymakers can ensure all children are prepared for the future. http://go.politicoemail.com/?qs=6bb02f22510e676687343012ccaea8e64d2f2bf17384d166d1220a81f2894723 **
