Newsmax host T.W. Shannon exploded at his guest Saturday after they rebuked his condemnation of those criticizing the Trump administration’s potentially illegal military orders, calling his guest’s remarks "outrageous."“We're seeing the left now comparing our troops to Nazis!” Shannon proclaimed, pointing to remarks from Glenn Kirschner, an attorney and former U.S. Army prosecutor. Appearing recently on MS NOW, Kirschner spoke in support of the Democratic lawmakers who urged service members to defy unlawful orders.“If you're committing offenses, and your defense is going to be 'I was just following orders,' you know, that didn't work out so well at Nuremberg,” Kirschner said, referring to the military tribunals held after World War II to prosecute high-ranking Nazi officials.Following the clip, Shannon tried to get a consensus among his two guests – Joe Conason, editor-in-chief at National Memo, and Jeffrey Lord, columnist for The American Spectator – but failed to convince both of them.“Now Joe, surely we're at a point where we can all agree that comparing United States service members to Nazis is over and beyond the pale?” Shannon asked.“I don't think that's what he did, he clearly didn't do that if you listen to the clip,” Conason said. “The point is that if you follow illegal orders, you're imitating some of the worst figures in history, and we have a record with [President] Donald Trump of issuing illegal orders.”Conason went on to argue that Secretary of War Pete Hegseth – who’s carried out a number of strikes in the Caribbean at the direction of Trump targeting suspected drug traffickers, strikes that have been called illegal “extrajudicial killings” – had already violated the law with his remarks condemning the Democratic lawmakers – specifically Sen. Mark Kelly (D-AZ) – who urged service members to defy illegal orders.“What's funny is that Hegseth clearly has no idea of what the legality of anything is!” Conason said. “He, by basically publicly convicting Mark Kelly in his remarks, violated the Uniform Code of Military Conduct himself!”Shannon went on to call Conason’s remarks “outrageous,” and encouraged his other guest to rebuke them. Lord was happy to oblige, declaring there to be “nothing illegal” about the Trump administration’s strikes on suspected drug traffickers at sea.Conason wasn’t done yet, however, and tore into Hegseth and the Trump administration for what he called their “real touch of evil.”“The question is how do you stop illegal drug smuggling? Do you murder people in advance of any showing that they were doing anything like that, or would you arrest them on the high seas as we've done in the past?” Conason said. “Or, do you just blow up boats and kill the survivors? I mean, that was the real touch of evil here. Apparently, Secretary Hegseth was informed that there were survivors of a strike and then told somebody to 'kill them all.'

Nearly a century after astronomers first proposed dark matter to explain the strange motions of galaxies, scientists may finally be catching a glimpse of it. A University of Tokyo researcher analyzing new data from NASA’s Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope has detected a halo of high-energy gamma rays that closely matches what theories predict should be released when dark matter particles collide and annihilate. The energy levels, intensity patterns, and shape of this glow align strikingly well with long-standing models of weakly interacting massive particles, making it one of the most compelling leads yet in the hunt for the universe’s invisible mass.

One of the most elegant theories about the origins of life on our planet is that it was kick-started by a delivery from outer space. This idea suggests that prebiotic molecules—the building blocks of life—were transported here by asteroids or other celestial bodies. While these molecules have been found in meteorite samples that have crash-landed on Earth, the findings have been complicated by the possibility of contamination from our environment.
The director of the Food and Drug Administration’s vaccine division told agency staff in a memo that an internal review found that at least 10 children died “after and because of receiving” the Covid vaccine.The 3,000-word memo, obtained by NBC News, was written by Dr. Vinay Prasad, director of the FDA’s Center for Biologics Evaluation and Research. In it, Prasad claims that agency staff determined that “no fewer than 10” of 96 child deaths reported to the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System, or VAERS, between 2021 and 2024 were “related” to Covid vaccination. He said the true numbers could be higher, accusing the agency of ignoring the safety concerns for years.The memo, sent Friday, did not include the children’s ages or medical histories, timelines or documentation for the deaths he references and does not identify the manufacturer of the vaccine. The FDA’s findings have not been published in a peer-reviewed journal.Experts push backExperts who reviewed the memo say it is misusing information from VAERS, an unverified reporting system that allows anyone, including doctors, patients and caregivers, to submit entriesabout adverse events they believe are linked to vaccines. The system’s own website warns that submissions can contain inaccurate, incomplete or biased information.“This is sort of science by press release,” said Dr. Paul Offit, a pediatrician and the director of the Vaccine Education Center at the Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia, calling the memo “irresponsible” and “dangerous.”“This is a profound revelation,” Prasad wrote in the memo. “For the first time, the U.S. FDA will acknowledge that COVID-19 vaccines have killed American children.”Prasad suggests that the child deaths were tied to myocarditis, an inflammation of the heart muscle, but doesn’t include evidence to support the claim.The FDA directed all media inquiries to the Department of Health and Human Services. An HHS spokesperson did not immediately respond to a request for comment.Dr. Peter Marks, the FDA’s former vaccine chief who was ousted by Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. earlier this year, said the agency is misusing the database and the claims are right out of what he calls the “anti-vaccine playbook.”The FDA uses the database to look for early “signals” — patterns that might suggest a possible safety issue, Marks told NBC News. It was one of the tools the agency used to identify a rare blood clotting condition linked to Johnson & Johnson’s Covid vaccine, he said.The mRNA Covid vaccines, from Pfizer and Moderna, have also been linked to a small but increased risk of myocarditis in young men. Most cases have been found to be mild and resolve within a few days.Marks said the FDA is not reviewing new safety reports but instead re-examining older ones and appears to be classifying some of them as vaccine-related. He added that Covid infection is also associated with myocarditis — and is often more severe than cases seen after vaccination.“This memo conveys a very troubling mixture of misrepresentation and lies,” Marks said. “The climate within the agency is incredibly toxic right now.”Health & ScienceNov 20Without evidence, CDC changes messaging on vaccines and autismvaccinesOct 25Is it time for your flu shot? What to know about effectiveness and how long it lastsProposed changesThe memo uses highly ideological language, repeatedly characterizing Covid vaccine requirements for schools and employers as “coercive,” calling past agency decisions “dishonest,” and arguing that vaccine regulation “may have harmed more children than we saved.” At one point, Prasad instructs staff who disagree with his conclusions to resign.He outlined a series of proposed changes to how the FDA evaluates vaccines. He said the agency would revisit how annual flu shots are evaluated, calling the current process an “evidence-based catastrophe of low quality evidence.”He also said pneumonia vaccine makers “will have to show their products reduce pneumonia (at least in the post-market setting), and not merely generate antibody titers.”He also claimed the Biden administration dismissed early safety concerns, and criticized former Centers for Disease Control and Prevention Director Rochelle Walensky for what he described as “dishonest and manipulative” public comments.The memo comes ahead of a two-day CDC vaccine advisory committee meeting next week, when officials are scheduled to discuss the childhood vaccine schedule and the hepatitis B shot.Earlier this year, the FDA and CDC limited who is eligible to get a Covid vaccine this fall and winter, focusing on people 65 and older and those with medical conditions that put them at increased risk of severe illness.Kennedy, an anti-vaccine activist, has downplayed the benefits of vaccines and has singled out vaccines made with mRNA as particularly dangerous, calling the mRNA Covid vaccine “the deadliest vaccine ever made.”In September, FDA Commissioner Marty Makary told CNN that the agency was looking into the deaths of healthy children from the Covid shots.Extensive research has found that the Covid vaccines are safe for children and protect against severe illness.A 2023 analysis in JAMA Pediatrics reviewed 17 studies covering more than 10 million children ages 5 to 11 who got Pfizer’s or Moderna’s Covid vaccines. Vaccinated kids had a lower risk of infection and hospitalization compared to those who weren’t vaccinated.A 2024 study in Nature Communications also found no increased risk of serious adverse events in young kids after Covid vaccination. It did identify a small increased risk of myocarditis in teen boys after the first two days.

Caribbean Matters is a weekly series from Daily Kos. Hope you’ll join us here every Saturday. If you are unfamiliar with the region, check out Caribbean Matters: Getting to know the countries of the Caribbean. By now most readers here, and folks who pay attention to New York City politics, are aware that Rep. Nydia Velázquez has announced that she will be retiring. Maya King, writing for The New York Times reported on the trailblazer:Representative Nydia M. Velázquez, a Democratic trailblazer who was the first Puerto Rican woman elected to Congress, said on Thursday that she would not seek re-election in 2026 at the completion of her 16th term.Ms. Velázquez, 72, cited the calls for generational change in her party, acknowledging that she had considered retiring for the last few years. But after Zohran Mamdani’s success in the November mayoral election, she felt confident that a new cohort would continue her efforts.“I love this work and I love my district, but I believe now is the right moment to step aside and allow a new generation of leaders to step forward,” she said in an emotional phone interview from her office in Washington. “After devoting so much energy and so much time to help elect young leaders, I feel at ease,” she added, pointing to Mr. Mamdani’s election.NY1 also covered the mixed feelings on her retirement from a political career that began in 1992:Velázquez defeated a nine-term incumbent in a newly drawn majority-Hispanic district to become the first Puerto Rican woman elected to Congress.“She never took on weak people. She took on the powerful. That’s what she’s done her whole life — opening up doors,” NY1 political commentator Gerson Borrero said. [...]Velázquez was the first Latina to chair the Small Business Committee. She used that position to elevate women-owned businesses through a contracting program she started.“She knows that if you fund right: a nail salon, a hair salon, a cleaning business, a small restaurant, a mom and pop store — that these people had the right ideas, they didn’t have the money,” Borrero said.Known as “La Luchadora” or The Fighter, Velázquez not only championed her causes but pushed for more Latina representation at the highest levels.The 16-term congresswoman helped appoint Justice Sonia Sotomayor to the Supreme Court as the first Latina.Now, after more than 30 years in office, the congresswoman said she is proud of her work, but it’s time to step aside.“This was not an easy decision, but I believe that the time is right for me to move on and for a new generation of leaders to step forward,” she said in a statement Thursday, in part. [...]“She was one of the first to prove that you don’t need to be invited. You don’t need to have someone make a space for you. You can kick down the door and bring your community to Congress,” Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez said.Almost immediately after the announcement of her decision not to run again, speculation began on who would be competing for her seat, which covers parts of Queens and North Brooklyn, including Long Island City, Astoria, Ridgewood, Bushwick, Williamsburg, and East New York. Tsehai Alfred and Peter Sterne at City & State NY wrote about those eying the seat, which is one of the most left-leaning in the country:As Rep. Nydia Velázquez, the Puerto Rican progressive pioneer nicknamed “La Luchadora” for her willingness to fight for her community, exits her historic 16-term seat, her Thursday retirement announcement leaves a competitive primary in its wake.Velázquez’s congressional district, which covers parts of northern Brooklyn and western Queens, is a leftist hotbed, having overwhelmingly voted for Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani in the primary. This upcoming congressional primary will likely see a wave of progressives – including members of the Democratic Socialists of America – seeking to capitalize off of Mamdani’s momentum. The central question, according to Democratic strategist Trip Yang, will be if Velázquez’s successor is “socialist or a non-socialist progressive.”The story mentions the names of lots of possible contenders: Brooklyn borough president Antonio Reynoso, District 59 state Sen. Kristen Gonzalez, District 18 state Sen. Julia Salazar, District 37 Assemblymember Claire Valdez, District 34 City Councilmember Jennifer Gutiérrez, District 37 City Councilmember Sandy Nurse, District 33 City Councilmember Lincoln Restler, District 22 City Councilmember Tiffany Cabán, and District 26 City Councilmember Julie Won.Emily Ngo, Nicholas Wu and Jeff Coltin at Politico also reported on her retirement.I’ve covered her in several stories: here, and here, and here.She was recently spotlighted by Daily Kos contributor bilboteach in his weekly series on the Congressional Hispanic Caucus. On her background growing up in Puerto Rico, he cited a 1992 New York Times article detailing her background by Maria Newman:In a small wooden house on the banks of the Rio Limon, flanked by verdant fields of sugar cane swaying in the warm breeze, Nydia M. Velazquez learned about politics.The talk at the dinner table for the family of 10, Ms. Velazquez recalled, was always about the status of their island commonwealth and who controlled it, or about the rights of workers and how to organize. Her father, Don Benito Velazquez, a poor sugar-cane cutter with a third-grade education but a penchant for learning, was so passionate about the issues that he used to jump on the back of flatbed trucks to deliver speeches. Eventually, he founded a political party in their hometown."I always wanted to be like my father," said Ms. VelasquezThank you, Rep. Velázquez for all you have done for both your constituents and for the people of Puerto Rico, who have no voting representation in Congress due to their colonial status.
