Sounds a lot like "defund the police," eh?

It's been said for years that if a politician is in a bind they will just push marijuana legislation to earn some easy points.


Personally I'd love to see the prohibition come to an end I don't care who does it.

Good. The prohibition of marijuana possession and use is asinine.

This is a good first step.

Totally poll driven. If this was such an important issue for Joe he could of done it on day one when he was signing all the other orders that screwed up our country.

And why isn't this being driven by the legislative branch of government? Isn't that where laws are supposed to originate and be changed?

Legislative branch? We don't need no stinkin' legislative branch when we have EO's, activist judges and unelected bureaucrats to make the rules!

Sorry son, you're gonna have to take one for the team

Well, this is a surprise...

I'll believe it when I see it. I predict a big nothing burger. "We have investigated Hunter Biden and found no wrong-doing." I hope I'm wrong, but my cynicism level is pegged on anything that might implicate Biden, or anyone on the left.

ETA: "you have to prove intent"... Gee, where have we heard that one before? Hillary anyone?

I'm skeptical as well, but they proved with Ghislaine Maxwell that they can ignore everyone else involved.

Maybe they'll only charge him with MJ related crimes, then when JoePedo pardons all the other MJ criminals the case will be dropped because it is moot

That's because of the MAD principle. (Mutually Assured Destruction) I'm hoping nobody here thinks that it's just Democrats in her little black book.

Regardless of what level of Teflon a President's son may or may not have, I am genuinely surprised that this story is coming to light now, right before midterms.

Gun will get dropped, plea on the tax with fines paid as it was an "oversight". The big guy will be passed over completely.

Perhaps he won't resign willingly and they need leverage to give him the shove in favor of the ho'

Nancy does get those sweet insider stock deals.

First, at least the old codger is finally doing something good. Now if we could at least get it moved down the schedule as well.

And I agree, Nothing will happen. Just like Maxwell is the only person convicted on trafficking minors to no one.

But it sure would be fun to watch him frog marched out of the white house in his PJs at 4am by 50 FBI agents. He deseves the same overblown mistreatment he is dishing out against his political enemies.

I wish you had been able to use purple in that post, but sadly it is so true.
