Wow, those tireless activists at CTFK, Truth Initiative, American Lung, American Heart, and WHO must be *livid* that FDA approved two new cigarettes for market yesterday. Let’s check in and see what they’re saying… THREAD 🧵
Man, it is quiet around here.

…<crickets chirping>…

…<dog barks in the distance>…
CTFK thanks its paid spokeskids… (No one seems to care).
WHO Framework Convention on Tobacco Control & the Protocol features a gang of faceless bureaucrats… (Which kinda makes perfect sense altho, sadly, no comments).
American Lung Association wants Santa Claus to give them a car? No comment from Mr. Kringle.
Truth Initiative has a holiday card in its off-key orange branded color. But wait, there’s a comment!!!
It’s from vaper Keith Marshall, who apparently saved his own life without any help from the moral police. We salute you, good sir — you had more to say this day on how to quit cigarettes than all the world’s leading activist groups combined!
Almost forgot American Heart Association which wants to see our pets for some reason? You got it, AHA — here’s a vape shop cat in a bow tie just for you.

A little late to the game Business Insider, but we'll take it. We profiled a few other members you missed. Check ‘em out below 🧵 ⬇️
Rep. Ro Khanna (D-CA) is a multi-millionaire, one of the richest in Congress, and he wants to strip away our right to switch from cigarettes to vaping. Check out his major investments last year:
Rep. John Yarmuth (D-KY), who tried to sneak the vape tax into BBB, is the most egregious offender. He apparently finds no irony in the fact that he chairs the Congressional Whiskey Caucus while denying fellow Americans the right to switch to vaping.

🧵One of the best aspects of the vape community is that we come in all political stripes, united in the effort to help our fellow Americans. We want to reach everyone, so let’s talk first about why the Progressive Caucus ought to be sticking up for vapers. THREAD
Begin with the fact that millions of low- and middle-income Americans have switched from cigarettes to vaping, in a valiant effort to take charge of their own health destiny.

Why so many in that income range? In part because vaping is far more affordable than cigarettes and pricey pharmaceutical products that have much lower efficacy in smoking cessation than vaping.

Attorneys for Breeze taking a Louisville Slugger to FDA’s arguments in SCOTUS case. 1/ Image
Breeze attorneys point out that FDA just blew off any substantive response to Fifth Circuit ruling against the agency. Image
Kinda seems like a lot of the stuff FDA does and says is made up on the fly? 🤔 Image

There’s something kinda weird at Campaign for Tobacco Free Kids we ought to talk about. It starts w how CTFK president Matt Myers got trounced in a dialogue on national tv this week. 🧵THREAD
On a show called “The Doctors,” an actual physician, Dr. Michael Siegel of Tufts Univ., took Myers to the woodshed for deceiving the American public. But get this: CTFK is *promoting* the segment on its social media!
Here’s the really weird part — none of CTFK’s 26K followers on Twitter are sticking up for Myers or CTFK. The only comments are from people adding more rebuttals to CTFK’s bunk!

So let’s talk about prohibitionist Members of Congress who are also tobacco investors. First up, Rep. Ro Khanna. He’s a multi-millionaire, one of the richest in Congress, and he wants to strip away our right to switch from cigarettes to vaping. 🧵THREAD
But all that time, he has been systematically investing in major tobacco companies including Altria Group and Philip Morris. How do you think he got so rich! Here’s eight (8!) major investments he made just this year:
Khanna publicly promised not to invest in oil & gas or defense contractors because it offends his conscience. But with tobacco companies? Make it rain!

🧵In the wake of the FDA’s regulatory malfeasance on vaping policy, we at AVM have a moral duty to act as a voice for the businesses that serve millions of Americans who use vaping to quit smoking. 1/14
We firmly believe that the #RighttoSwitch from harmful cigarettes is fundamental -- a choice that should not be left to the FDA, overzealous activist groups, or nanny-state politicians who ignore the unintended consequences of their actions. It belongs to our customers. 2/14
While the FDA and others have been on a warpath against our products, it has ignored the countless public health experts around the world who rely on the growing body of evidence showing the benefits of vaping and its effectiveness in helping people quit smoking. 3/14 ImageImageImageImage
