7 Things: AL lawmakers still support Trump; Britt roasts Mayorkas; and more …

7. A bad sign for the American economy looms with McDonald’s shutting offices while preparing for what appears to be massive layoffs.

6. Gov. Kay Ivey is welcoming California Gov. Gavin Newsom to the state and appears to be heading to some southern states to ineffectively push for Medicaid expansion. Former U.S. Sen. Doug Jones (D-Mountain Brook) took some time off from politicizing the murder of an Alabama police officer to ineffectively push the same thing.

5. A sad return to school for Birmingham schools who are welcoming back kids from Spring Break as 3 teens have been killed in the city over the last week

4. Terrible severe weather kills 32 over the weekend in the South with one dead in the state of Alabama after an EF-3 tornado hit her home near the Tennessee line.
