I read this morning that Biden is ready to lift sanctions so we can drill in Venezuela again. That seems cool and good.

They have to agree to run free and fair elections first.

Wait a minute . . . last I heard, the right wing was raging that Biden didn't use the SPR to help ease supply issues in the US.  Now that he has, suddenly it's "bad policy"?

Fucking political jackassery.  I'm so sick of it.  @Porterhouse

Nobody wanted him to release SPR, ever. The sentiment has been consistent. Not sure what you’re talking about.

In exchange for the significant sanctions relief, the government of Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro would resume long-suspended talks with the country’s opposition to discuss conditions needed to hold free and fair presidential elections in 2024, the people said. The U.S., Venezuela’s government and some Venezuelan opposition figures have also worked out a deal that would free up hundreds of millions of dollars in Venezuelan state funds frozen in American banks to pay for imports of food, medicine and equipment for the country’s battered electricity grid and municipal water systems.

lifting sanctions on venezuela would have the effect of decreasing migratory pressure at the border with mexico, so of course republicans don't want it.

That's complete bullshit.  I don't know YOUR angle on it, but I saw dozens of rage-ops as gas started climbing that Joe Biden needed to DO SOMETHING and release reserved oil.  If you didn't see it then you just don't pay attention to the word on the street, which makes your hot takes even more laughable.

The GOP has to politicize everything in their lives. It’s a big reason why I’ll probably never vote republican in an election. It still baffles me to this day just how they figured out to politicize something as mundane as kids going back to school during covid. Truly miserable and terrible people.

I get that they have to keep Brandon locked away because he’s 900 years old and they don’t want everyone to see that but they should turn him loose with regular people more often. He’s good at chopping it up with voters, even MAGA ones. 

This.  Dude LOVES to talk and connect with real people.  He's the anti-Trump.

How is this going to impact my kid's haul of Halloween candy where everyone is reportedly going to give him marijuana gummies disguised as regular candy?

he's on a fucking roll these days. i'll be honest I think legalization has had its problems and the now widespread access isn't good for kids and developing brains (I also significantly disagree isn't nonaddictive) but I agree on a criminal level this move is LONG over due.

They're getting rainbow fentanyl, not weed gummies. Fox News told me so.

Valid concerns I suppose, but prohibition has been proven to be the wrong answer. History tells us that, as well as the number of people in jail, and the percentage who are black and brown. I'm also not super up on the science but I think it addictive in a way that people who like it really really like it, but nothing like the chemical dependency issues that can arise with alcohol. All I know is that I can take an edible and drink one beer on a weeknight without a hint of hangover. More than 2 drinks anymore and I'm risking a hangover.

Adults should be free to make their own decisions. Alcohol is way more harmful to your body and kills way more people despite its legal status.

Basic response:  "just in time for all the dopers that can now legally vote to register and vote for the socialist party"

Those morons are full of shit. If Trump did this, they would be celebrating. They’re just mad because a Republican didn’t think of it.

Just to be abundantly clear, this issue can’t hurt Biden. The polling is generally 80-90% of democrats approve of legalization, 60%-65% of independents, and 50% of republicans. Even in deep red states, marijuana wins. The formula is ballot initiatives to legalize marijuana win probably close to 90% of red state democrat votes, 60-70% of independent votes, and 45-50% Republican votes.

Marijuana is winning on ballots so much that it might just be getting tired of winning. It’s why I suspect Republican legislatures are taking steps to nerf or neuter the ballot initiative process in their states. You can generally ask yourself 2 questions “ is it fun?” and “do most Americans support this?” If the answer to either question is YES then you can count on the GOP to resoundingly vote NO.

"Urging all governors to do the same for state offenses".

Now Abbott and the carpetbagging lesbian will push to make marijuana possession in Texas punishable by death.

I’d say it would cost them votes, but Texans proved in 2021 that they were willing to freeze to death to own the libs so…..

Joey Two Puffs, the greatest Job Creator in-Cheef, on a glorious Jobsgiving Eve, recognized what was before us all.

Staring down the upper tier of the dankest holiday food pipeline, the triumvirate of Halloween candy, Thanksgiving Turkey, and Christmas Ham and tamales, bestowed upon us the erasure of records and freeing from bondage the worlds greatest appetite stimulant.

Light a candle. Fall to your knees and breathe it in. Then breathe it again. Hold it in. Don’t cough. And let it go. There will never be another as good as him.

I live in the DC area and there were political ads on TV about it

That's a great move re: MJ

 

And this part is best addressed by legalizing it at the federal level, imo. 

I’d also like to note that as federal and state regulations change, we still need important limitations on trafficking, marketing, and underage sales of marijuana.

Yea, I was gonna say. It's already been done in Blue states, and Red states would cut off their own dicks before they'd give the Democrats a win.
