There's good news about smoking: Millions of people continue to switch to safer nicotine products. But so-called public health groups stubbornly stand in the way. My latest for Medium. #smoking #vaping, medium.com/p/we-know-how-…

Has clothing declined in quality? Just the opposite, argues Alex Tabarrok. Markets are giving people what they want, as they often do. marginalrevolution.com/?p=90576

Republicans used to believe in limited government and personal freedom. It's crazy that they want to ban lab-grown meat. #animalrights #climate vox.com/future-of-meat…

I've just bought Prof. Mark Tyndall's new book, Vaping: Behind the Smoke and Fears. An excellent, fluent read and a powerful rejoinder to the myths and misinformation of the abstinence-only fanatics. More info, reviews and buying options: drmarktyndallauthor.com Dr Mark Tyndall

Something’s very wrong at Global Action to End Smoking My latest for Medium. #smoking #vaping #philanthropy medium.com/the-great-vape…

Great reporting from West Africa by Nicholas Kristof on the devastating impact of cuts in US foreign aid. Many thousands of the world’s poorest people are dying. Those in #philanthropy, pls take note.

It’s good to see a government official willing to go after corrupt #nonprofits. This one didn’t even file tax returns! Foundations and NGOs need more oversight and accountability. washingtonpost.com/dc-md-va/2025/…

Great and fair-minded analysis of Rizzo and Martinez. Now the onus is on the Lerners to deliver a better brand of baseball.

Oh my goodness. Yet another one-sided and misleading story about #vaping from the NYT. It cites EVALI (which was not caused by nicotine vapes) and ignores the benefits that e-cigarettes deliver to those who use vapes to quit #smoking. nytimes.com/2025/07/09/wel… via @NYTimes

Colorado's law regulating #psychedelics represents "a paradigm shift in the relationship between citizens and the state regarding psychedelic substances." It offers a sensible and nuanched approach to drug use. open.substack.com/pub/kykeon23/p…

šŸ“‰ E-cig users who never smoked showed zero signs of lung damage after 4+ years. No inflammation. No popcorn lung. No cardiovascular effects. Science matters. šŸ’”thr101.org/post/study-fin… #ScienceSunday #VapingFacts #TobaccoHarmReduction

Here's the latest misleading, counterproductive warning about e-cigarettes from the American Lung Association. Biggest problem is when it describes as "untrue" the claim that that e-cigs are safer than cigarettes. Fact is, they are safer. #vaping #smoking lung.org/blog/dangerous…

How Bloomberg Philanthropies opposes e-cigarettes in Brazil. Their grantees are giving iPhones and Apple Watches to young people who submit videos attacking #vaping. It's crazy. direta.org/quem-financia-…

Why did Bloomberg Philanthropies donate to tiny Bennington College? To campaign against plastics, it seems. With tax– favored dollars, of course. #philanthropy thefirebreak.org/p/beyond-benni…
