Because he creates lower air pressure in his mouth compared to the atmospheric pressure - thus the liquid is pushed through the straw as a result of pressure difference.

Why can't you drink through a straw in a sealed container?

When you try to drink through a straw in a sealed container, you create a vacuum within the container. The vacuum prevents the liquid from being able to flow through the straw because there is no air pressure to push it up. Essentially, the lack of air pressure inside the sealed container makes it impossible for the liquid to move up the straw.

What is a straw gun purchase?

Properly called a "straw man purchase". This is where person A buys a gun for person B. Person A, who completes the paperwork, has background check, etc, is not the actual purchaser of the weapon. They are a "straw man"- a fake. In most of the US, it is legal to buy a gun as a bonafide gift to another- but not to use another's money to buy a gun for them. Example- Using my money, I buy a gun as a Christmas present for my son, who is legally able to own a gun. That is legal, and not a straw man sale. My neighbor asks if I will get a gun for him. He gives me $300, I go buy a gun, and take it to him. THAT is a strawman sale, and illegal- even if my neighbor could have legally bought the gun himself.

Will you be able to drink juice throw straw on the moon?

Drinking juice through a straw on the Moon would be quite different from on Earth due to the Moon's low gravity. While the straw could still function, the juice wouldn't flow naturally as it does on Earth. Instead, you would need to create suction to pull the liquid into the straw, and the lack of gravity would make it harder to control the liquid, which could float away. So, while it's technically possible, it would be a challenging experience!
