WHAT WE’RE READING:
- Former New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg plans to spend $50 million this year “to build a nationwide grass-roots network to motivate voters who feel strongly about curbing gun violence, an organization he hopes can eventually outmuscle the National Rifle Association.” (NY Times)
- We brought you the story of Nevada rancher Cliven Bundy last night, and it’s a story that looks like won’t be ending soon.

(Politico)
- ‘Personhood’ isn’t an issue you’ll hear about at the top of any campaign speech, but it’s certainly an issue that will play a big role in 2014–particularly in the Senate races. (Washington Post)
- The GOP is getting an early start on the 2016 infighting. The latest target? Rand Paul and his “noninterventionist foreign policy views.” (Huffington Post)
