    President Obama is mad about something happening in his administration again. This time it's about mismanagement within Veteran's Affairs. An undersecretary for health has resigned.

  • Governor Deval Patrick (D-Mass.) says he'd like to see a Democratic presidential primary campaign, which is apparently not something all Democrats are willing to support publicly.
  • The Justice Department announced it was filing charges against government officials in China accused of cyber-espionage.
  • Russian President Vladimir Putin has reportedly ordered troops stationed near the border with Ukraine to return to their home bases.
  • Rebel forces in Libya loyal to retired General Khalifa Haftar stormed the Parliament, saying they had "suspended" the legislative body. The Libyan government maintained it was still in control.
  • Voters in Switzerland rejected a proposal to set the minimum wage at $25 an hour.
