Quick Glance: Fact Check: Biden Repeats Claim of Arrest for Defending Civil Rights. Still No Evidence
  • President Joe Biden reiterated his story of allegedly trying to defend the civil rights of Black Americans on 'The Howard Stern Show.' However, there is no evidence to support his claim of ever being arrested at a civil rights protest, as noted by 'The Washington Post' and 'PolitiFact.'

  • Biden has told the story of his supposed presence at a specific protest in Delaware at least twice without mentioning an arrest. He stated that the police simply took him home on that day.

  • It is impossible to prove definitively whether Biden was present at this or a similar protest over 60 years ago. He has also made other false claims about his personal life in the past.

  • Biden falsely claimed to have 'driven an 18-wheeler' and that he never earned $400,000 in a year. During his 2020 presidential campaign, he claimed to have been 'arrested' as a US senator while trying to visit South African anti-apartheid icon Nelson Mandela in prison, which turned out to be untrue.

US Reverses on Plan to Ban Menthol Cigarettes, WSJ Reports
Quick Glance: Biden administration faces delays in menthol cigarettes ban
  • The planned implementation of a ban on menthol cigarettes in the US is expected to take 'significantly more time,' according to US Health and Human Services Secretary Xavier Becerra in a statement on Friday.

  • In April 2022, the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) initially announced the ban on the popular mint flavor, setting a deadline for August 2023. Final rules were sent to the White House Office of Management and Budget for review in October, with the status listed as 'pending.'

  • According to the proposed FDA regulations, the manufacturing and sale of menthols would be prohibited, without direct regulation of smokers themselves.

  • A prohibition on menthol cigarettes could potentially save up to 650,000 lives over the next 40 years, with a third of these lives being saved within the black community, as stated by the Campaign for Tobacco-Free Kids.
