Is a TSA deal in the works? ✈️ |
Apologies if you're reading this while waiting in an hours-long line to get on a plane. But hopes are taking flight for a deal to end the nearly six-week partial shutdown that's snarled air travel across the nation, left TSA agents without pay and travelers almost at a breaking point. GOP lawmakers say they're getting closer to a compromise with Democrats that would include concessions on ICE operations while ensuring money for TSA. | People wait in TSA security lines at John F.

More US troops to the Middle East? |
Thousands of troops from the Army's elite 82nd Airborne Division will be deployed to the Middle East amid the ongoing U.S.-Israeli war with Iran, as President Trump says the administration is in "very strong talks" to negotiate an end to the war. Iran, though, is still denying any such talks are taking place. The latest on the war. |

Spilling the tea on QEII 🫖 👑 📖 |
USA TODAY White House Bureau Chief Susan Page's book, "The Queen and Her Presidents: The Hidden Hand That Shaped History," will be published on April 14 (just in time for the late queen's April 21 birthday, which she shares with Iggy Pop and a certain newsletter writer). But we have a peek inside the palace walls, with excerpts from the book that reveal what Queen Elizabeth II thought about President Trump, Harry and Meghan, and whether any American president can be called her favorite. | Britain's Queen Elizabeth II leaves after the Royal Family's traditional Christmas Day service at St Mary Magdalene Church in Sandringham, Norfolk, eastern England, on Dec. 25, 2019.

Worried about your job? You're not alone |
American workers are not feeling very good about the job market: For the first time since Gallup began tracking it, more workers say they have a negative outlook on their prospects than a positive one. More workers say they're struggling than thriving. What's behind the gloomy mindset? |
