    pods

    The Food and Drug Administration plans to ban the sale of fruity flavors
    in cartridge-based e-cigarettes, but the restriction won’t apply to tank
    vaping systems commonly found at vape shops, according to people familiar
    with the matter.

    The action is seen as a compromise between Trump administration officials
    who want to address a rise in teen vaping and those concerned about the
    impact on small businesses and the possible political fallout for
    President Trump, these people said. Polls commissioned by the vaping
    industry have shown an outright ban would be unpopular in key states for
    the 2020 election.

    Federal officials are expected to announce the new plan as soon as Friday. Open-tank vaping devices, which allow users to mix their own nicotine
    liquids, aren’t popular among children or teenagers, who tend to use
    vaporizers with prefilled cartridges such as those made by Juul Labs Inc.
    Open tanks are typically found in vape shops and allow consumers to
    custom-mix flavors.

    The new policy, intended to curb a surge in underage vaping, would apply
    only to pod-based vaporizers such as those made by Juul, NJOY Holdings
    Inc. and Reynolds American Inc.

    It would pull from the market all e-cigarette refill pods except those formulated to taste like tobacco or menthol, the people said, dealing a
    blow to an industry estimated to have $9 billion in annual revenue. The
    sweet and fruity flavors that would be banned under the new policy
    represented about 80 percent of retail-store e-cigarette sales in 2019, according to analyst estimates.

    Donald J. Trump, 304 electoral votes to 227, defeated compulsive liar in

    Congratulations President Trump. Thank you for cleaning up the disaster
    of the Obama presidency.

    Under Barack Obama's leadership, the United States of America became the
    The World According To Garp.

    Obama sold out heterosexuals for Hollywood queer liberal democrat donors.

    President Trump has boosted the economy, reduced illegal immigration,
    appointed dozens of judges and created jobs.
