It is a bad week to be Russia. Qatar, one of the biggest LNG exporter, just announced it's new six MTPA (million tonnes per annum) nitrogen fertilizer plant. The chemical process involved is natural gas->ammonia -> urea for a 1/ dohanews.co/qatar-set-to-b…

In April 2024, Trump asked Big Oil execs for a $1 billion donation in exchange for deregulation and tax cuts. Who helped broker Trump's dealings with Big Oil? Doug Burgum — who is testifying today before the Senate to be Trump's secretary of the interior. See how this works?

The richest man on Earth, whose wealth has been heavily subsidized by billions of dollars in government contracts, spent a fortune putting Trump in the White House. But it's not enough to just have the president's ear — now he'll have an office next to him too? Oligarchy.

This is very true and very important for a President to say. Once the oligarchy grips power, it is almost impossible for the people to take back power. Time is of the essence and we need to heed this warning.

I think it took a few hours for these pressure groups to react because they needed to coordinate a response that can be copied by all like-minded groups. I wonder if Truth Initiative will share this template soon?

Shifting off Twitter to BlueSky. What a relief to depart from oligarch’s offensive politics. Why did it take me so long? Customer is sovereign. Best wishes to friends

Daily cigarette smoking, US High School seniors, 2024: 0.4% !!! (it was 24.6% in 1997 !!!). Those who claimed that ecig use causes an increased chance of becoming addicted to cigarettes were mistaken.

Forget about reducing nicotine level in cigarettes. That will simply provide enormous stimulus to black market. Instead, make vaping nicotine, heated tobacco products, snus and nicotine pouches more available, less expensive, more attractive than deadly cigarettes. Problem solved

The ongoing results of the Australian neo prohibition on ENDS (vapes). Unfortunately, Prof Emily Banks failed to include these outcomes in her presentation to NEDLAC. Can 🇿🇦 afford an escalation in criminality & attacks on small businesses based on nonsensical legislation?

“Calls for stricter cigarette and vape laws to rein in dodgy tobacconists” Pro tip: It was ridiculous laws that are already causing insane amount of destruction and black market domination! Solution: low taxes on cigs and legalise vapes, evidence based education campaigns

Suggest NEDLAC look out for paper appearing prestigious journal 5 weeks comparing Australia’s neo prohibition vapes favoured by Prof Emily Banks & pragmatic harm reduction in New Zealand with far superior outcomes

Ask Simon Chapman. He’s great supporter of quitting smoking cold turkey & very opposed to effective tobacco harm reduction eg vaping
