I can't wait for the day when we no longer have to hear about these two.

This is only an executive order. We know those are meaningless. I’m curious if there will actually be research on something that could go back to being illegal at any time.

Joe Rogan did help to get this guy elected. I hope that is remembered during Nuremberg 2.0

Kind of ironic that the multi-decade war on drugs that included things like MDMA, psilocybin, LSD were being done by the cons, as a way to "own the libs":

The Nixon campaign in 1968, and the Nixon White House after that, had two enemies: the antiwar left and Black people. You understand what I’m saying? We knew we couldn’t make it illegal to be either against the war or Black, but by getting the public to associate the hippies with marijuana and Blacks with heroin, and then criminalizing both heavily, we could disrupt those communities. We could arrest their leaders, raid their homes, break up their meetings, and vilify them night after night on the evening news. Did we know we were lying about the drugs? Of course we did.

The Republican Party has always been full of Republicans.

Remember way back like 1 week ago when there was an article saying JoE RoGan TuRnS on MaGa. Fuck that. Once a fascist, always a fascist. Just stop paying attention to him.

This, and accidentally legalizing hemp weed are possibly the only positive things to come out of this whole debacle

But the same clown killed the NIH....so now we can legally not research anything.

You can kind of see this as a general win for anybody who is a fan of using psychedelics for treatment of mental health issues, but it's important to point out that both of the people mentioned in the headline have ulterior motives for this move.

Trump wants to get Joe Rogan back on his side after he alienated him with his Iran antics. Joe Rogan is one of the biggest conservative megaphones in the nation and he can't afford to have him be talking shit about MAGA before the midterms, so he'll throw him a bone about this one issue that he doesn't give a fuck about anyway.

Joe Rogan is doing this to be able to hopefully one day self-administer psychedelics, not get meaningful treatment or aid from a professional to guide him through the process and change himself for the better.

I'm not sure which of these two are being more selfish at this point.

Honestly psychedelics turned my opinion on living around when I was younger and I was just messing around recklessly with them (I mean, Not too recklessly, safe tested doses and that, but I’m not a doctor!)

I do not doubt it could be helpful or useful ina therapeutic setting, especially when administered by people who know what they’re doing.

But we all know Trump is doing this to win back Rogan, who he needs to keep the roid bros in line

Trump needs to take some psychedelics.

I was planning on doing some independent research on my day off anyway.

Well at least we can all pop some shrooms and trip balls as the world ends.

Joe Rogaine is proof that no matter how much money you have, you can't buy a full head of hair

This guys never gonna get Trumps stink off him

Does this do anything if those drugs aren't rescheduled?

Rogan told reporters he learned about the medical benefits of psychedelics from an interview on his podcast with W. Bryan Hubbard, the CEO of the nonprofit Americans for Ibogaine — who stood next to Rogan in the Oval Office — and former Energy Secretary Rick Perry.

The fuck? Who let Rick “and the third thing i can’t remember” Perry in there??

Rogan wants a bunch of legal drugs but I'm pretty sure trump just wants legit ludes

We need serious people cipherin' the oughts' again.

While I absolutely hate the mango and I am not a fanboy of the bald dude, I am pretty happy to hear psychedelics will be legal. It was about time, man.

I really thinks more research into these things could be beneficial. The worst that could happen is they discover it could make things worse but deciding without data is foolish.

took me a few reads to realise the headline wasn't saying he was tripping while signing it

Damn that title had me very confused. But weirdly enough not super-super-surprised

The rare W from 47

The president also joked about getting ibogaine for himself as he pointed to a study that found that people who took the drug experienced a massive reduction in symptoms of depression and anxiety within a month.

“Can I have some, please? I’ll take some,” he said. “I don’t have time to be depressed. You know, you stay busy enough, maybe that works too. That’s what I do.”

Anybody seen my violin?

Hope this isn't some strange 4-d chess move to have dem ban them because it was associated with trump. I doubt it, but I do fear.
