A Republican Finally Rescheduled Marijuana? I Told You So. - RadicalRuss.com
It is Republican President Donald J. Trump who has finally, sensibly, inevitably rescheduled cannabis out of the "it's not medicine" Schedule I (alongside LSD and heroin) and into the "it's prescripti...

Seattle and Denver atop their conferences? The last time these two teams were Super Bowl bound, their states were first to legalize marjuana. And Trump just legalized federal medical marijuana.

A consequence of Trump rescheduling cannabis is that it torpedoes the Idaho GOP's proposed 2026 constitutional amendment that ends the citizen's power to legalize medial marijuana by initiative, vesting that power only with the legislature, and boosts activists proposing a medmj initiative for 2026.

The White House claims the vote to rename the Kennedy Center was “unanimous.” That is false. I was muted on the call and denied the opportunity to speak or register my opposition. That is not consensus. That is censorship.

Kamala Harris telling Jimmy Kimmel that when she called Trump after the "assassination" attempt, she could hear him in the background hawking his book further lends credence to the conspiracy theories that he faked it.

I've noticed that restaurants that seal food packages for services like DoorDash create two problems:
1. Some foods get mushy from heat while sealed, even on short rides.
2. Drivers can't check if anything is missing since they can't see inside the bag.
Am I crazy to think this is a problem?!

Given that I possess the same statutory authority to rename things in Washington DC, as the president's lackeys do, I declare that the Washington Monument shall henceforth be known as the Middle Finger to Trump Washington Monument.

See?! I *told* you that was how Trump thought percentages work! A drug is like a pie with 8 slices. When you turn one slice into eight, that's a 7x (700%) increase and when you turn eight slices into one, that's a 7x (700%) decrease!
FOX: If you cut something by 100%, the cost goes down to 0. If you cut it by 600%, the drug companies are actually paying you
LUTNICK: What he's saying is if a drug was $100 and you bring it down to $13, it's down 7 times
F: Not a 600% cut
L: But it's 700% higher price before. It's down 700% now

I love it that the Treasury ceasing to make the penny has forced retailers to round change up to the nearest nickel, thereby costing them between 1 and 4 cents per transaction. After all these years of them nickel and diming us, we finally get to penny them!

I accept a Home Depot delivery whose dimensions easily fit my Chevy Volt hatchback. I arrive and the delivery is a BBQ smoker that the recipient wants delivered fully assembled, which makes it far too large to fit in my car. Talk about a bait and switch! I guess it's going to be one of those days.

Did Vance really say that Biden's 4% unemployment was artificially low because guys who haven't been working for 2 years stopped looking for work and weren't counted and Trump's 4.6% is good news because those same guys are out looking for work (thereby being counted) and still haven't found work?

A woman on a podcast says her healthcare premiums for herself, her husband, and her child (maybe more than one?) are $3,700 a month that are going to go up to $4,300 a month. At $15 an hour, you'd have to work 14 hours a day. Only a heavily propagandized country would ever accept this. 👇🏻
