China is dominating the e-vape market, warns Altria.

Despite declining shipment volumes in cigarettes and cigars across the industry, Altria exceeded earnings expectations. The company raised concerns about the growing dominance of unregulated products and is pushing for stricter enforcement and regulatory reforms to address the issue. In its first earnings call of the century, tobacco conglomerate Altria posted a robust performance, but highlighted unregulated vape products as a thorn in the side of the industry. One of the core missions of the parent company of Philip Morris USA and Black & Mild cigar is to transition customers to a smoke-free experience. The brand said that it needs to turn to politicians to make sure that there is a curb on unauthorized, unregulated e-vaping products. On its earnings call earlier this week, Altria announced results that surpassed market expectations and kept its earnings per share outlook for the year. Net revenues were $5.2 billion in the first quarter of the year, which was down 5.7% compared to the same period last year, but still beat market expectations of around $4.6 billion. The adjusted earnings per share for the first quarter was $1.23 compared to the $1.19 expected by the Street....

The best new tracks of the week should be added to the playlist.

A delightfully deranged party girl whose bleepy vintage synths, sleazy and relentless disco keeps things weird in the right way, plus new music from Jorja Smith and more from Idaho. The aesthetic world of her few singles recalls a kids soft-play centre with bright primary colors and bouncy surfaces. She fires bubble guns into the air, surrounded by inflatable sea creatures and dancers dressed as boxers. Her delightfully weird dance-pop draws from a toybox of vintage synths, and sounds as if it could be some rediscovered lost Euro new-wave pop curio. Continue reading...

There have been 25 ridiculous mistakes made by Democrats.

As pundits, pollsters, and op-ed writers look to their assessment of President Donald Trump's first 100 days -- an "artificial metric," White House Chief of Staff Susie Wiles once said -- it seems fitting to examine what the Democrats have done. The Democratic Party is disorganized. The Democrats are suffering their lowest positive rating in 35 years because only 27% of people view their party positively. They blame each other for lying to the nation about Joe Biden's ability to function as a successful president, and for not stopping Donald J. Trump from winning a second term. Democrats are out of power because of GOP control of the House, Senate and White House. They are out of touch with most Americans, out of excuses as to why they lost last fall, and out of reasons why core Democratic constituencies that went for President Trump in 2024 should give Democrats another look. The causes and characters they champion include hulking men in girls' sports and a Maryland man with gang affiliations, whose wife filed abuse charges against him. Nothing says "we care about women" like stuntman and sometime Sen. Chris Van Hollen, who has disrespected the memory of a mother of five who was raped and murdered in his state by an illegal immigrant....

GOP senators are wondering about the future of Hegseth.

Senate Republicans are standing by the Secretary of Defense, but they are privately wondering how much time he has left atop the Pentagon amid ongoing turmoil within the Trump administration, which resulted in the replacement of national security adviser Mike Waltz on Thursday. The Republican senators were disappointed by the initial news that the national security adviser would be stepping down. He was well-suited for the job and a steady hand to work with, who had less national security policy experience. Hours after news broke of Waltz's impending departure, Trump nominated him to be United Nations ambassador and added the national security adviser role to the portfolio of Secretary of State Marco Rubio. He did a good job as national security adviser. Ted Cruz said he was sorry to see that news, but it was the president's prerogative to decide who his team would be. Sen. Tillis, who wavered on voting to confirm Hegseth, said that he was a good guy. Several Republicans, including Senate Majority Leader John Thune, view Hegseth less favorably....

Alternative Media Insights

Note: As we venture into the realm of alternative media reporting, it is essential to acknowledge that not all sources are created equal. While some outlets offer crucial counter-narratives and insights, others pose a significant risk of misinformation, perpetuating controlled opposition or serving as wolves in sheep's clothing, intent on misleading their audience with agendas designed to confuse rather than inform.

Florida criminalizes chemicals. Florida is the first state to regulate weather modification. Florida is the first state in the nation to criminalize weather modification and geoengineering, thanks to the passage of Senate Bill 56 and House Bill 477. The Senate version was passed with a vote in the House today. This makes it a felony crime in Florida, with up to 5 years in prison and $100,000 in fines. Florida is sending a loud and clear message: we will protect our skies and we will not allow corporate interests, climate change interventionists, or covert operations to mess with our environment. In the sunshine state, we will keep the sun shining. Thanks to both of these leaders, this landmark legislation was championed....

Who protects us from our authoritarian leaders?

Today is no exception as the ambitions of our decision-makers are visible. The government recently proposed to make it more difficult and require a larger majority to change the Swedish Constitution in light of the threats to democracy in the world. The courts will be protected from political influence. All parties seem to agree. When it comes to important issues for the Swedish population, like NATO membership, the DCA agreement, and unlimited support for the proxy, those in power make decisions as they see fit over the heads of the citizens. There are a few examples. They already subscribe to the title of "pre-emptively protecting the population from future authoritarian leaders." It seems like it would be hard to change constitutions now, but at the end of the day it is all about will....
