After rescinding Biden’s menthol cigarette ban, the Trump administration faces a decision on an ITC proposal targeting NJOY Ace, the only authorized menthol-flavored pod vaping product in the US, amid concerns over rival JUUL’s influence and China flooding the market with shoddy products.

At 14:14 in the video, corresponding to five hours and twelve minutes after the start of the fire, the narrator notes: “Governor Gavin Newsom is unhappy with what he’s seen on a tour inside…

James Lankford (R-Okla.) and Todd Young (R-Ind.) — had concerns over Gabbard after she declined to call Edward Snowden a traitor, despite multiple opportunities to do so in her confirmation hearing last…

A foreign policy based on exceptionalism risks undermining the global order, the Russian foreign minister has said The United States’ ‘America First’ policy has disturbing similarities to the slogan ‘Germany above all’ used by the Nazis to assert national superiority over others, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov has warned. In an op-ed for the magazine ‘Russia in Global Affairs’ published on Tuesday, Lavrov argued that Washington’s approach undermines the UN Charter and the post-war global order built on sovereign equality. He noted that this principle was enshrined in the Yalta-Potsdam agreements signed in 1945 by the USSR, US, and UK, shaping…
