🚨Why R J Reynolds gave $ 5 Million to Trump ? Did he get something in return during his second term? 🤡🤡Key benefits to the tobacco giant include: Blocked Menthol Ban: The administration officially withdrew the proposed ban on menthol cigarettes, a major regulatory victory for the makers of Camel and Newport. Scrapped Nicotine Limits: The White House set aside a proposed Biden-era rule that would have sharply restricted the amount of nicotine allowed in cigarettes. Preserved Tax Rebates: The administration's tax policy helped maintain the "drawback" provision—a lucrative tax rebate for cigarette exporters. These favorable policy shifts occurred after R.J. Reynolds and its parent company (British American Tobacco) emerged as major corporate donors, contributing millions to Trump-aligned super PACs and other affiliated funds. Overheard - “A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious. But it cannot survive treason from within. An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known and carries his banner openly. But the traitor moves amongst those within the gate freely, his sly whispers rustling through all the alleys, heard in the very halls of government itself.”
