Today is the deadline to file a federal tax return. The Wall Street Journal’s Richard Rubin joins to discuss what to know about Tax Day after Trump’s moves to shrink the IRS. The U.S. hosted talks between Israel and Lebanon at the White House on Tuesday. Simon Lewis of Reuters breaks down how those discussions play into larger peace talks to end the Iran war.

Kate Wells of KFF Health News explains how urgent-care clinics have filled the gaps. Plus, two congressmen accused of sexual misconduct officially resigned from Congress, the vast wealth held by Trump’s pick to be the next Fed chair, and how the world’s oldest gorilla celebrated a record-breaking birthday.
