Good Tuesday morning, and happy LAST PRIMARY DAY of the Election of the Century.

DRIVING THE DAY -- "New House Republican 'anti-poverty plan' repackages GOP proposals," by John Bresnahan: "Speaker Paul Ryan ... and other House Republicans will travel to a drug rehab facility in Southeast D.C. to release a 35-page report from the GOP 'Task Force on Poverty, Opportunity, and Upward Mobility.' ... Ryan hopes these task-force reports will give Republican candidates and incumbents a platform to run on this fall even if GOP presidential nominee Donald Trump does not perform well at the top of the ticket." http://go.politicoemail.com/?qs=93128f5eea3cec2b3f6c08d6ae3d3c24fdb22430e5fead9785b2e86de2e38f2c

2016 PLAYERS - "Dick Morris Is in Talks to Join the Trump Campaign," by NYMag's Gabriel Sherman: "Morris would 'join the Hillary unit,' one source explained. ... [A] senior Trump adviser added[:] 'Some of the most important info about the Clintons is 20 years old.'" http://go.politicoemail.com/?qs=93128f5eea3cec2be6130b41d9c64f9dfc5ea1ec4eb7143f2fe477d461d90ddd 

--"Clinton [Campaign] Hires Julian Castro's Speechwriter," by BuzzFeed's Adrian Carrasquillo: "Gregory Bell ... is leaving the [HUD] where he served as director of speechwriting for HUD Secretary Julian Castro, an oft-rumored vice presidential candidate ... Bell will serve as a speechwriter under director of speechwriting, Dan Schwerin." http://go.politicoemail.com/?qs=93128f5eea3cec2bb0a76694b4a401cba253a081ba730ccd5db44b858f1e3984 

TONIGHT'S TIMELINE - "Viewer's Guide: Hillary Clinton's ready for her big moment," by AP's Nancy Benac: "Grab some coffee and prepare for a long night ... Polls close at 8 p.m. EDT in New Jersey; 9 p.m. in New Mexico, North Dakota and South Dakota; 10 p.m. in Montana; and 11 p.m. for the big prize of California. Without the benefit of exit polls, it will take longer to call races than otherwise would be the case." http://go.politicoemail.com/?qs=93128f5eea3cec2be7f93031c98d96dbd6d55d54b64d6c106a501531bbf1530c

DRIVING THE CONVERSATION -- "Trump train derails on Capitol Hill," by Burgess Everett and Seung Min Kim: "[H]is attacks on federal Judge Gonzalo Curiel are sapping any goodwill he had accumulated in private meetings and phone calls with congressional Republicans. But now that House Speaker Paul Ryan and much of the party have endorsed Trump, Republicans are left with little room to maneuver other than decry his comments and hope people move on. That's not likely to happen anytime soon, with media attention rising and Trump refusing to back away from his attacks." http://go.politicoemail.com/?qs=93128f5eea3cec2b5b35106404d7dc01def76ebd6f104811c5ad40449aa28a4a 

JOE SCARBOROUGH on "Morning Joe," to D.C. Republicans, re Trump: "You have to start calling him out TODAY. This is not where you can do the slow boil. ... Say you'll retract your endorsement of him TODAY ... or the United State Senate is in DANGER. ... The House of Representatives is in DANGER. ... 

"Republicans: Call him out. Make him back down on the Muslim ban. Make him back down on this racist statement he's made about a man [the judge in a Trump University case] born in Indiana ... Or else you lose the Senate, you lose the House, you lose the presidency, you will lose your standing as a national party. It's that simple. ... He's going backwards. ... He appears to be spontaneously combusting over a civil lawsuit."

--CHUCK TODD, to Joe and Mika: "What has happened in the last five days ... there's something about this ... that's leaving a mark. ... I'm just confused: Where is the sense of urgency inside the Republican Party?" 

--TOM BROKAW, on-set at 30 Rock: "It seems to me they're stuck with what they've got."

TOP TWEETS -- @FredVMalek: "Politics is game of addition not subtraction - Trump's attacks on Judge even more damaging and inexcusable than those against Gov. Martinez" ... @BenSasse: "Public Service Announcement: Saying someone can't do a specific job because of his or her race is the literal definition of 'racism'" ... @BuzzFeedBen: "Trump's whole reality is TV, and now TV is being less hospitable. That must be incredibly stressful."

FOR HISTORY: "APNewsAlert, 8:19 PM 6/6/2016 WASHINGTON (AP) - AP count: Hillary Clinton has commitments from delegates needed to become presumptive Democratic presidential nominee; will be first woman to top major party ticket" ... "APNewsAlert, 8:59 PM 6/6/2016 WASHINGTON (AP) - Clinton campaign calls AP count 'important milestone,' looks ahead to 6 states voting Tuesday."

STATE OF THE ART - "Sanders' legacy: One of the most valuable donor lists ever," by Shane Goldmacher: "[T]he fact that Sanders used the platform - and that ActBlue gets to keep a database of Sanders supporters who collectively pumped more than $200 million into his campaign - is expected to redound to the benefit of down-ballot Democrats, from small town council candidates to incumbent U.S. senators." http://go.politicoemail.com/?qs=93128f5eea3cec2b58a29accaef0231c70348db19edd9b622f200c758d398464

INSIDE THE CAMPAIGNS -- "Trump Orders Surrogates to Intensify Criticism of Judge and Journalists," by Bloomberg's Kevin Cirilli, Michael C. Bender and Jennifer Jacobs: "An embattled Donald Trump urgently rallied his most visible supporters to defend his attacks on a federal judge's Mexican ancestry during a conference call on Monday in which he ordered them to question the judge's credibility and impugn reporters as racists. 'We will overcome,' Trump said ... 'And I've always won and I'm going to continue to win. And that's the way it is.' ... 

"When former Arizona Governor Jan Brewer interrupted the discussion to inform Trump that his own campaign had asked surrogates to stop talking about the lawsuit in an e-mail on Sunday, Trump repeatedly demanded to know who sent the memo, and immediately overruled his staff. 'Take that order and throw it the hell out,' Trump said. Told the memo was sent by Erica Freeman, a staffer who circulates information to surrogates, Trump said he didn't know her. 

"He openly questioned how the campaign could defend itself if supporters weren't allowed to talk. 'Are there any other stupid letters that were sent to you folks?' Trump said. 'That's one of the reasons I want to have this call, because you guys are getting sometimes stupid information from people that aren't so smart.' ... 

"'The people asking the questions-those are the racists,' Trump said. 'I would go at 'em.' Suggesting a broader campaign against the media, Trump said the campaign should also actively criticize television reporters. 'I'd let them have it,' he said, referring to those who Trump portrayed as hypocrites." http://go.politicoemail.com/?qs=93128f5eea3cec2be08c1d817d9f947094b0d48d1ff84e97790c2f8124ca6361 ...

TICK-TOCK -- "Inside the #NeverTrump Candidacy that Almost Was," by National Review's Eliana Johnson: "It was enough, apparently, to spook the Trump campaign. Sources say that on Wednesday, influential supporters of the campaign, prompted by the campaign itself, began reaching out to the [RNC], to Kristol, and to [David] French, attempting to quash the bid. One Trump operative reached French's wife's family in Tennessee and told them, according to French, that he was 'instructed to call and deliver a message that the race would be very difficult for me.'" http://go.politicoemail.com/?qs=93128f5eea3cec2be9271ca9f5deb0aa8e7e9ec430dc1d15d126661ccb4d8d01
