.@Grok estimates the combined smoking rate of Californians and migrants at 16-18%, not the reported 10%
Newsom cannot ignore this long before smoking's costs cripple the state, especially with tobacco tax revenue at only $1.4 billion total

Is $50 million in revenue significant for a trade organization or NGO, in a $27 trillion economy?
Is $5 million a large annual salary for the president of such an organization?

If there's one thing that cannot be said, about tobacco corporations/manufacturers, it's that they don't take protecting their business interests, seriously

…without telling me you prepped for the HHS Budget hearing by watching Altria’s Q1 earnings call.
Sen. Moody drops the exact “60% Chinese disposables” stat Altria cooked up.
Sec. Kennedy praises chip-enabled vapes (JUUL/NJOY — Big Tobacco-owned) and vows to “wipe [Chinese disposable vapes] out.”
All in a budget hearing — with zero mention that smoking still drains $300+ billion/year from U.S. taxpayers.
This wasn’t public health oversight.
This was a corporate handoff - with Baptists & Bootleggers fully united:
🚨 Moral panic to “protect the children”
💰 Tobacco giants using it to crush competition
Same script as Obama’s 2009 Family Smoking Prevention and Tobacco Control Act, which handed the FDA to Big Tobacco.
Now MAHA’s the sequel - and RFK Jr.’s reading their lines.

And, really, I have YET to hear @SecKennedy or @RobertKennedyJr say squat about the chronic diseases and death, that smoking cigarettes, cause. Have you, @grok?
I spoke too soon.
President Trump pledged to save flavored vaping.
Today, his HHS Secretary correctly said Biden’s FDA “slow-walked” applications from responsible U.S. companies, though his definition of “responsible” is murky. (In reality, they denied millions outright *after*
🚨 BREAKING: The FDA’s war on vaping has backfired—badly. 🚨
Altria just admitted in their Q4 earnings call that illicit disposable vapes now control 60% of the market—because the FDA refused to approve legal alternatives.
They underestimated the black market.
📽️ Watch:
🧵 A
If the FDA truly prioritized lung health, they'd consider vaping as a potential harm reduction tool for smokers.
Research shows vaping is far less harmful than smoking, yet the FDA's stance remains “cautious”
- intentional “air quotes”

It's standard fare, for agency (and NGO) bureaucrats acknowledge benefits. It's also standard fare, for agency (and NGO) bureaucrats, to push and enact policy regulations, that hamper progress, to the point of destroying industry innovations - that improve public health
FDA is a PHINO pharma trade association
Important recognition here from two former directors of @FDATobacco - @ScottGottliebMD and Brian King (now at @TobaccoFreeKids) that harm reduction works for tobacco. @DrMakaryFDA has an extraordinary opportunity now to make smoking history.
@SecKennedy "bundle of perverse incentives"
Explains why Obama created the Tobacco Control Act, that protects cigarettes, just as it explains why Trump banned flavored vape pods & vape mail.

@SecKennedy “Off course”
Hmmm…for a country, that perpetuates deadly harms, like FDA approving more:new cigarettes, simply bc they’re supposedly not more deadly
