Cracker Barrel’s CEO Julie Masino has resigned following a disastrous rebrand attempt, with its new leader pledging to uphold the company’s traditional appeal. PULSE POINTS WHAT HAPPENED: Cracker Barrel announced Monday that CEO Julie Masino will step down after three years leading the restaurant chain, following a turbulent tenure marked by backlash over a woke rebrand. Masino faced widespread criticism after introducing a minimalist logo and removing the chain’s signature antique aesthetic, prompting a social media backlash that contributed to a 15 percent drop in the company’s stock price and led her to pause the renovation plan.

AXIOS (Stef W. Kight) - Thune's shield against Trump

Senate Majority Leader John Thune is pulling off something today's Republicans rarely attempt: telling President Trump "no." Why it matters: Pressure from Trump and the MAGA base is piling up on Thune (R-S.D.), especially over a voter ID bill, but he has an important insurance policy: GOP senators have his back. - "I think he's got strong support. I read all the stories, but I think mostly that's made up by reporters," Sen. Mike Crapo (R-Idaho) told Axios. - "Leaders absorb some of the punishment, but I think he's doing great. No one could do a better job than he is right now," Sen. Roger Marshall (R-Kan.) told Axios. - "His cred in the conference has never been stronger," Sen. Kevin Cramer (R-N.D.) told Axios.

AXIOS (Rebecca Falconer) - Canadians' travel pullback costs U.S. tourism billions

Canadian travel to the U.S. fell 25% last year, according to a new Canadian government report, which says early 2026 data show the decline has persisted. Why it matters: The report provides some of the clearest measures yet of the economic cost to the U.S. tourism industry after trade tensions, tariffs and President Trump's repeated "51st state " comments led many Canadians to vacation elsewhere. - "Following the change in the U.S. administration in early 2025 and the implementation of America First policies, Canadian travel sentiment shifted abruptly," the report says. - Statistics Canada says Canadians' return trips from the U.S. declined year over year for 11 consecutive months in 2025 — the longest sustained decline outside…
