rfk and flavoured vapes

The FDA just approved colorful fruit-flavored vapes.

Nothing says “Make America Healthy Again” like marketing cotton-candy flavored nicotine to middle schoolers.

RJ reynolds gave trump $5M, within a week

Oo-er. Big oil, big crypto, big Israel lobby, and now this, big tobacco.

Young people don't think they're dangerous and quickly become addicted. They cause irreversible damage to your lungs and over a shorter time than cigarettes. They need to be banned, not legalised.

Indeed, but that's of no concern to Kennedy or Trump.

Kennedy's brain was eaten by worms, so he has no idea what he's doing, and Trump is only interested in money.
