Good morning, Broadsheet readers! Valentina (@valzarya) here. Hillary Clinton had a super busy weekend, the world remembers Nancy Reagan, and Meg Whitman has more to say about Donald Trump. Have a great Monday.
EVERYONE'S TALKING

Four states held Democratic primaries over the weekend, with Hillary Clinton winning one (Louisiana) and Bernie Sanders taking three (Kansas, Nebraska, and Maine). The two also went head-to-head in a CNN debate on Sunday night, with many media outlets, including Coins2Day, declaring Clinton the winner. Coins2Day
