No one under 16 can get a Library of Congress reader card. If you are 16 or 17, you need a permission signed by a parent or guardian.

Republicans have been calling for an end to the Department of Education basically since it was established, David A. Graham writes in The Atlantic Daily. “But most presidents, including Trump, can’t and don’t want to get rid of the things it does.”

ONE BIG THING. When I mentioned that I had heard of at least one person who had already missed a Social Security payment, the staffers snapped to attention. That's a huge deal.

If you or someone you know has missed a Social Security payment, call your reps IMMEDIATELY.
