Hour 1
Recess Appointments in the Spotlight
Can Matt Gaetz actually get the Senate’s blessing? GOP Rep. Thomas Massie doesn’t seem so sure. He tossed out the term “recess appointments” like it was a Hail Mary pass. This isn’t just some wild speculation either—Senator John Thune, usually cool as a cucumber, agrees. Trump might just pull out the recess appointment card to bypass the Senate and fill those contentious Cabinet spots.
RFK Jr. and the Health Debate
Scott Jennings took a CNN panel to school, delivering a fiery takedown of the “health regime” and explaining why so many people distrust it. Meanwhile, Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s health policies are stirring the pot. Here are five stances from RFK Jr. that have everyone talking:
- Vaccine skepticism.
- Environmental health concerns.
- Pandemic response overhaul.
- Transparency in Big Pharma.
- A call to restore public trust.
Kennedy may be a controversial figure, but you can’t ignore the noise around him.
Hour 2
Teen Pneumonia Cases Raise Eyebrows
Here’s a head-scratcher: more teens are being hospitalized with pneumonia, and it’s not your typical cold-weather bug. Some are pointing fingers at lingering effects of COVID-19. Others? They’re claiming a cover-up.
COVID-19: Cover-Up or New Discovery?
Whistleblowers have reignited debates over COVID-19’s origins, alleging the disease’s “blueprint” may have been misclassified. On the flip side, a new study revealed some eye-opening stats about Omicron. While total COVID deaths outnumber flu fatalities by threefold, the severity of individual cases seems pretty close. In fact:
- ICU admissions are nearly identical.
- Flu patients see more complications than COVID cases.
And here’s the curveball—immune cells from severe COVID infections might shrink tumors. What’s next? COVID as cancer’s kryptonite?
Advance Auto Parts Closures
Bad news for DIY mechanics: Advance Auto Parts is shutting down hundreds of stores. Turns out, fewer folks are fixing their own cars these days. Guess they’d rather hit the dealership or call a pro.

Trump’s Bold DOJ Moves
Hold onto your hats—Trump has appointed his own former legal defense team to major Department of Justice positions. That’s right, the same crew that shielded him from legal troubles is now running key DOJ offices. Coincidence? We think not.
Peanut the Squirrel’s Wild Ride
In one of the strangest headlines of the day, Peanut the Squirrel was euthanized and tested for rabies. The good news? He tested negative. The bad news? Social media lit up like a Christmas tree, turning Peanut into a symbol of overreach and wildlife rights.

Hour 2
Unusual cases of hospitalization among teens with pneumonia
Study: COVID Omicron deaths 3 times higher than for flu, but risks for severe cases similar
More complications with flu
The absolute number of COVID-19 deaths was three times higher than those from flu, but the case-fatality ratio was comparable for COVID-19 (6.2%) and flu (6.1%); after adjustment, patients had a comparable subdistribution hazard ratio (HR) for 30-day in-hospital death (0.91). Similar percentages were admitted to the ICU (2.4% COVID-19 vs 2.6% flu).
A higher percentage of patients were admitted to an intermediate care unit for COVID-19 (2.9%) than for flu (1.4%), and a greater proportion of flu patients had complications than those with COVID-19 (35.3% vs 29.3%).
The adjusted cause-specific HR for in-hospital death from flu versus COVID-19 was 0.94, and the cause-specific HR for flu-patient hospital release compared with COVID-19 hospital release was 1.04. The weighted subdistribution HR for flu death, compared with those from COVID-19, with hospital discharge as a competing risk was 0.91.
So COVID causes cancer and can cure it now? Yeah, RFK Jr. is the problem.
