Anyway, let's see the Epstein files.

trump still raped and trafficked kids

This change does not legalize marijuana for recreational use but allows for more research. That’s it. It does nothing as far as legalization goes. Just recognizes there’s medicinal uses.

See, by making sure it only stays legal for medical use, they can ensure that every medical state gets to keep its racket of licensing and doctor consultations. In recreational states, all the tax money just goes back to the taxpayer in the form of roads programs, educational programs, etc. The last thing any Republican would ever do was willingly fund something that helped other people, unless those other people were their billionaire donors.

A broken rapist, racist, treasonous calendar is right once a year (or maybe once a decade).

Its doesn't undo a decade-long campaign to dismantle the country for profit and power. But it's nice that he finally did something positive.

Anyways, remember when he said the left would suddenly be against legalizing weed once he supported it, and everyone collectively said "fucking legalize it"?

"He also indicated he would not be open to legalizing cannabis for recreational use." So I guess this is good but what is it really doing if they are never going to legalize it. Hopefully allows for some more conservative states to have an easier path to medicinal or recreational marijuana.

Grasping at straws to find anything to distract from Epstein.

Epstein files release deadline is tomorrow.

Curious.

Hey look! Over there!

Sounds like doctors would probably be able to prescribe nationwide if this happens, right?

Which won’t change anything for most of the US. I think this will only impact Idaho, Wyoming, Kansas, and South Carolina. Everyone else has some sort of legalized availability now.

dems could have had an easy win doing this but instead they fucked around and handed it to Trump, as usual. its even the small, "incremental" kind of progress they love; a tiny, almost imperceptible step that gives them something to point to when asked why they never accomplish any of their policy goals.

Do the people convicted of crimes related to marijuana get their sentences reclassified too?

So, good news and I'm glad that they did it. Cannabis should not be illegal, and though this doesn't fix that, having it being Schedule I was insanity and totally out-of-step with reality. I'm sure that Trump will be getting greased by the weed lobby, but in the end of the day, this is something that needed to happen.

The executive order directs Attorney General Pam Bondi to conclude the formal rescheduling process, which has been going on for more than a year, and move to publish a final rule that would reclassify cannabis.

Effectively all this is doing is putting Trump's name on a process that was started by Biden in 2022.

Looking at just the politics of it, the Democrats absolutely fucked up by teeing this up for Trump when they could have just done it themselves. Weed legalization is popular and it's already been happening across the country for over a decade. Even if you don't think it's totally fucked up how cannabis is treated as a Schedule I substance, it's really not hard to see which way the wind is blowing on this politically.

This should have been something that Biden did before leaving office, whether the reclassification process was over or not. Instead they wrapped it up in a nice little gift box and tied a little bow around it before handing it to Trump. This is the type of thing that drives your voters and supporters fucking insane, Democrats.

So the rapist in chief needs medical cannabis is what I'm reading. I hope it's cancer.

Good! Now the Democrat brass will have to do work. No more, pointing at the meme and saying"Get it? Do you get it?"

President Kid fucker and old head liberals/democrats can all fuck off.

Glad to see some solid movement on this front!

Even hitles had good laws

It's not uncommon for dictators to legalize psychoactive substances to keep the population placated.

Ight cool, Trump still raped and trafficked children for years and deserves nothing but the inside of a concrete box

Trying for a quick bump to approval ratings.

So two consecutive Presidents have done this now

Biden on Thursday announced the DOJ would reclassify cannabis to a less restrictive category on the Controlled Substances Act, the biggest change in federal drug law in decades

May 16 2024

Broken clock is right twice a day, etc, etc.

I love that one of his orders boils down to "Finish what Biden started."

Trump doing this because fucker got Dementia and this was just released:
