A government whose solution to almost every problem is to drill for more more oil, fill more prisons, make the rich richer, or sell more weapons is not a government that solves our problems; it is a government that perpetually creates them.

The War on Drugs began as a political hoax created by Richard Nixon as an act of political theatre. It has caused more suffering and death than the drugs themselves could have ever caused. Shame on every president since who didn’t have the nerve to say so.

.@POTUS could declassify marijuana from a Schedule 1 drug right now if he wanted to. It’s preposterous to have that power and not use it.
Marijuana should be legal nationwide. All marijuana convictions must be expunged. It is absurd that the federal government considers marijuana to be as dangerous as heroin.

I agree completely. And now there are robot dogs that shoot; some geniuses out there think they’re actually a good idea for warfare. It’s the stuff of a dystopian nightmare.

Eric Adams is destroying homeless encampments in New York and I guess he thought New Yorkers were going to be quiet about it.
