After 4+ years of litigation, the 5th Cir ruled that FDA's proposed graphic warnings for cigarettes did NOT violate the 1st Amend.
Now Judge Barker (E.D. Tx.) has again indefinitely blocked the rule, finding FDA likely violated the APA bc it lacked authority to increase # of warnings from 9 to 11.

There are already many articles for which there is more attention on Bluesky than on other comparable micro-blogging sites, meaning the academic community and the general public have clearly adopted Bluesky as one of its core places to disseminate and discuss new research.
