A VA study of over 1 million veterans found the 2024-2025 COVID-19 vaccine cut COVID-linked major heart events by 37.7%, with stronger 50.7% effectiveness in those over 75 and small absolute reductions like 2 fewer events per 10,000. Published June 15, 2026, in JAMA Internal Medicine, it tracked mostly older men after shots in late 2024, showing benefits for high-risk groups but drawing skeptic fire over tiny absolute gains, healthy vaccinee bias, and observational limits. Lead author Ziyad Al-Aly stressed skipping shots leaves heart protection untapped, while critics like Alex Berenson dismissed the relative risk figures as misleading.

Wichtigste Erkenntnis

For older veterans, getting the updated COVID shot alongside their flu vaccine meant fewer heart attacks and strokes tied to infections. The findings highlight real protection, especially for those over 75.

Rep. Thomas Massie, a libertarian-leaning incumbent who often opposed party leadership on foreign aid and surveillance, lost to Trump-backed Navy SEAL Ed Gallrein by 55% to 45% in the most expensive House primary ever, fueled by over $25 million in ads from pro-Israel groups. President Trump targeted Massie as the party's worst congressman, while Massie conceded with a jab at outside money, joking his opponent was in Tel Aviv. Carlson decried the result as the GOP selling out America First principles by colluding with a foreign country, but MAGA supporters celebrated purging a RINO and building a new party aligned with Trump.

Giovanna Mercedes Moreno Occhipinti, 32, a Venezuelan who overstayed her visa after entering in 2021, worked as a teacher in Elgin despite her status. On December 2, 2024, authorities say she drove suspected Tren de Aragua members Ricardo Granadillo Padilla and Edward Martinez Cermeno to a Gage Park party, where gunfire killed three Venezuelan men and injured five others; weapons were found in her car as she helped them flee. Chicago police arrested her but released her under sanctuary policies without ICE notice, and prosecutors dropped charges—until ICE detained her on May 13, 2026, for removal proceedings. The case draws criticism over local handling, teacher vetting, and sanctuary rules amid Tren de Aragua's U.S. violence links.
