thehill.com/homenews/administration/4624481-biden-dropping-plan-ban-menthol-cigarettes-report/

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.

Quick Glance: ByteDance Would Consider Closing TikTok in US Over Sale, Sources Claim

ByteDance would prefer to cease TikTok operations rather than engage in a sale if all legal avenues are exhausted to combat potential legislation banning the platform in US app stores, as per four sources.

Despite TikTok's massive popularity with over a billion users, it remains unprofitable, contributing a small fraction to ByteDance's overall revenues and daily active user base.

ByteDance stated on Thursday in a release on Toutiao, a media platform it possesses, that there are no intentions to sell TikTok, in response to claims from The Information about ByteDance exploring sale scenarios for TikTok's US operations excluding the recommending algorithm for user videos.

As of December, ByteDance's valuation stood at $268 billion when it proposed a buyback of approximately $5 billion in shares from investors.

Quick Glance: China Emphasizes Stronger Collaboration with US Amid Challenges

China stresses the importance of enhanced cooperation with the United States despite facing significant obstacles.

Xi emphasized to the US Secretary of State on Friday that the two superpowers 'should be partners rather than rivals' and should support each other's success, as reported by the state news agency Xinhua.

During the five and a half hours of discussions, Blinken raised the issue of 'Chinese support to the Russian defence industrial base', and contentious topics such as Taiwan and the South China Sea were also addressed.

Recent years have seen tumultuous China-US relations, exacerbated by factors including a trade war, a visit by then-House of Representatives Speaker Nancy Pelosi to Taiwan in 2022, and a dispute over the US downing of a suspected Chinese surveillance balloon last year.

Quick Glance: Trial Judge Evaluates Trump's Compliance with Gag Order

Former President Trump is on trial in New York for hush money issues. David Pecker from 'National Enquirer' testified about an agreement to manipulate stories about Trump and his rivals.

Concerns arose about Trump's violation of the gag order by criticizing court members. Mary McCord explained how the administration of justice can be disrupted by defendants' statements, leading to legal restrictions.

Despite reluctance to detain a former president, fines may be imposed for attacks on witnesses and judicial families. Threats to security and witness testimonies pose serious challenges to the trial's integrity.

Judges emphasize the importance of upholding justice by addressing threats and ensuring the safety of those involved in legal proceedings. The credibility of the trial hinges on maintaining a fair and secure environment.

The wealthiest individual globally freely voices his opinions, often sparking debate.

Elon Musk, Tesla's CEO, has attacked U.S. election integrity, embraced White-supremacist propaganda, and accused President Joe Biden of treason.

Experts suggest that Musk's conduct may deter potential customers, but larger issues impact his company. With growing competition in the electric vehicle market, his polarizing personality could lead to more significant long-term damage.

While Musk may be damaging Tesla’s image with some consumers, the primary focus remains on the product and its dependability. Many consumers do not base their purchasing decisions on the political views of the company's leader.

The city of San Francisco, once seen as the shining star of the West Coast, is now on the verge of collapse, with seemingly no one raising the alarm.

In particular, the city's housing market has been severely impacted over the past year, with prices plummeting and homeowners fleeing en masse.

Jamie Dimon, CEO of JPMorgan Chase, did not hold back in his comparison of San Francisco's issues to those of New York City, stating that the Bay Area is 'in far worse shape.'

San Francisco is failing in all aspects, leading to a quiet collapse of its housing market, where once luxurious properties are now being offered at significant discounts.

Quick Glance: Millions Allocated for Transportation Updates in Morgan Hill

Morgan Hill is set to receive about $2 million in federal funds for public transportation to support the planning of rail and highway expansions.

The city plans to expand the stretch of Highway 101 within the city and will receive $500,000 for this process.

Additionally, the city will receive $1 million to create an overpass or underpass for busy train crossings, as well as $500,000 for "Quiet Zones" to reduce noise disturbances from passing trains.

The funds were allocated by Congresswoman Zoe Lofgren in the Consolidated Appropriations Act of 2024 and are part of over $50 million for various projects in the district, including funds for housing, pedestrian crossings, and a police campaign.
