AXIOS (Russell Contreras) - Juneteenth becomes America's quiet holiday as DEI goes underground

Juneteenth is surviving the corporate DEI backlash, even as American institutions pull back from the promises that helped elevate it. Why it matters: The holiday's staying power shows how Black history can be absorbed into calendars, payroll systems and public rituals even as the post-2020 commitments that gave it renewed force are renamed, narrowed or abandoned. - The holiday is enduring by becoming quieter, more internal and routine. - Juneteenth remains a federal holiday, and President Trump cannot cancel it unilaterally despite his attacks on it .

AXIOS (Cuneyt Dil) - How a democratic socialist swept D.C.

The triumph of a democratic socialist in the D.C. mayoral race is the latest sign that younger urban voters are turbo-charging candidates who promise to go big on affordability and take on President Trump. Why it matters: While Washington joined New York and Seattle as the latest big city to elect a democratic socialist, Janeese Lewis George's victory was less about her political label than about punishing prices and anger at the president. State of play: Lewis George, who handily defeated a moderate in the Democratic primary, marks a break from decades of business-friendly politicians running the nation's capital. Three trends explain her rise: - Unhappiness with the city's direction stood at the highest level (55%) since Marion…

AXIOS (Zachary Basu) - Trump's "Great Man" theory: "No limits" to his power

He's describing power in world-historical terms — placing himself in the lineage of conquerors, dictators and strongmen who bent nations to their will. - In a wide-ranging, soon-to-be-released 45-minute interview with Axios' Marc Caputo, Trump repeatedly measured power by submission: G7 leaders believed him when he joked "I'm the boss," he said, while Israel has "a lot of respect for me" and will "do as…
