Happy 250th Birthday America! 🎉 Tokyo is celebrating with you tonight with beautiful fireworks lighting up the bay and Rainbow Bridge plus Tokyo Tower glowing red white and blue!

God bless the USA and God bless Japan 🇺🇸🤝🇯🇵

Wow this post went viral. Over 800,000 impressions. Patriotism is alive and well in THE USA. You have to listen to this song. 🇺🇸

It looks like @truthinitiative wasn't very proud of having received a community note on one of their posts, so they deleted it.
But screenshots are forever...
Unacceptable. Pawns unite and please share this to uplift @MarewaGlover an invaluable Tobacco Harm Reduction advocate.
Academic mobbing — this is absolutely what happened to me. The people in academia and public health described below by @GadSaad went beyond their universities’ walls onto social media and beyond. They manipulated any professional society they could influence, scientific journals, scientific conferences… They got the media to write hit pieces based on their lies. When I was nominated for the New Zealander of The Year Supreme Award in 2019, they wrote to the independent Awards Committee demanding the nomination be withdrawn! They lobbied the government’s Ministry of Health to ban all communication with me! And the Director General did it! No one who worked in publicly funded health was allowed to talk to me, or read my scientific work. The large majority - hundreds of people I had worked with, trained, travelled with and met obeyed. Everyone learned that if they ever disagreed - they’d get “Marewa’d” — Yes! That became a word. My competitors wrote their own fictional account of a character they hoped everyone would hate - an evil witch who needed to be destroyed, and they gave their nemesis my name. It was like having my identity stolen.
We don’t have academic freedom in New Zealand @NZFreeSpeech and less and less do we have public servants. Too many government ministry officials and staff are there for personal gain and to misuse the public institutions to further their own political and ideological agendas, as the current coalition government is discovering every day. The “blob” as @trussliz described them are undermining democracy. They are sabotaging New Zealand’s progress. It’s time for a clean out. @CaseyCostelloMP @NewZealandMFA

"7. WHO and the people you have copied on your facile misinformation post ought to be ashamed of their role as defenders of the cigarette trade and promoters of organised crime."
Like everything from WHO, that is an idiotic and misleading presentation of vaping. Seven things you ought to know:
1. Worldwide, there are vastly more adults than youth who vape. Your data is profoundly misleading.
2. Many of the young people who take up vaping would otherwise have smoked. So for them, it’s a huge health win. The use of nicotine is migrating to safer products. You ignore this.
3. People will continue to use nicotine whether you approve or not. Once you can find the humility to accept that, the challenge is how to make it acceptably safe and lawful. You don’t understand this basic point.
4. Most of WHO’s prohibitionist policy proposals lead straight to illicit trade and nurture exploitative organised criminal networks. You ignore the evidence: 75% of vape sales worldwide are now illicit. Your big idea is to extend this criminal windfall to pouches.
5. Young people are drawn into criminal networks as suppliers and are exposed to other illegal goods and services, and are introduced to criminality. WHO is the vector of criminalisation and youth exploitation in this marketplace.
6. WHO continues to be captured by narrow interest groups and billionaire foundations, while showing idle contempt for the health of over 1 billion people at serious risk from smoking related disease. You are smug and righteous but wrong about everything.
7. WHO and the people you have copied on your facile misinformation post ought to be ashamed of their role as defenders of the cigarette trade and promoters of organised crime.
It’s no wonder the organisation is in terminal decline. You have done this.

We wake up every day as advocates, only to see people over 50 reposting vaping misinformation from random third-party #Facebook accounts — recycled claims that were debunked over a decade ago, like #PopcornLung.
The saddest part? Adults ages 45–64 still have the highest cigarette smoking rates overall in the United States. These are fathers, mothers, uncles, aunts, and friends who risk becoming just another statistic in the databases of @CDCgov and @US_FDA — part of the more than 480,000 smoking-related deaths recorded each year.

That's a problem. 30% of Americans who smoke don't want to quit.
Among ALL who smoke, most are low-income, adults with mental health issues, American vets, LGBTQ or American Indians (as admirable as Sámi Peoples).
...All are people policymakers don't care much about.

F.D.A. Commissioner Marty Makary Resigns After Weeks of Pressure
Dr. Makary ultimately resigned over concerns about the administration’s decision to authorize fruit-flavored e-cigarettes, an action he opposed, according to four people familiar with the matter.
Kyle Diamantas, the F.D.A.’s top food regulator, was named the acting commissioner.

"This ‘overview’... pooled the evidence from fourteen systematic reviews of smoking cessation interventions from 2014 to 2023."
NOTE: Effectiveness = Efficacy + Use
This review of reviews finds "efficacious." @CDCgov surveys show 21 million ADULTS use nicotine vapes.
E-cigarettes rated most effective smoking cessation method by new evidence review, via @EurekAlert! @addictionjrnl eurekalert.org/news-releases… << THIS is long overdue. fao @wesstreeting @SharonHodgsonMP Users have known this for years, despite media + vested interest hostility

Since 2014, the evidence has been clear that vaping is a significant harm reduction strategy for smokers.
How many smokers have been diagnosed with a chronic smoking-related disease in the last 8 years because they didn't know they had an option?

The FDA is in the wrong side of Tobacco Harm Reduction

Looking forward to 2026:
We believe the next chapter is a flight to quality.
We do not condone disposable products with e-liquid marinating on coils and cotton, leaching impurities that are ultimately inhaled. That’s not progress, it’s negligence.
To our customers: thank you.

.@realDonaldTrump the image couldn't be more applicable...Just add in Big Tobacco, oh wait Big T and Big P are under the same umbrella of corporatocracy...
American politics/gov, where corporations go to buy protection from competitors.
@joerogan @DOGE @elonmusk
$200M of tobacco user fees paid by Big Tobacco to the FDA (for cigarette sales) must now by law be used for enforcement against the safer vaping products which are destroying its cigarette sales.
Looks like Big Tobacco is sure getting its money's worth.

Vape Shops in Alberta are being held by gun point in broad day light.
Vape Shops across Canada are being broken into.
Vape Shops are being attacked by NGO's in Canada and being accused of hooking kids on vaping.
ITS THE BLACK MARKET. Bad policy lead by uninformed old guard NGO's. Listen to all of us!
