Paul Ryan will speak at an AARP event in New Orleans today. Last time he talked to seniors about Medicare, he kept his approach personal; will he respond to calls for more policy details this time? (What he do know: He’s bringing his mother again.) Today’s TrailMix video with Felicia Sonmez: 

  • National GOP sends staff to Massachusetts
  • Issa will recall Lerner to testify on IRS scandal.
  • Weiner: Women may come forward with more information
  • Boehner: 'Inconceivable' that Obama didn't know about IRS targeting
