Woke DC Loves Pot, Senators Stoke Joe 4 Toke

While progressive “51st State of DC” now ok’s “self-prescribed medical marijuana,” pot loving Dem Senators are pissed at Biden for dragging his old bones in keeping the drug on federal controlled substance list. Bo(i)ng!

Ok. For those weed wackers among us in DC and perhaps more important to them in celebrating Fourth of July, comes the Fox5 report that the city’s council has “approved a measure to let anyone 21 years & older “self-prescribe” medical marijuana.” The emergency measure by the local pols is presumably a frantic, last-ditch effort to counter illegal weed “gift shops” from dispensing pot without a doctors prescription AND, thereby, avoiding the DC tax man. At stake: “A staggering $600 million in annual sales” within that Grand Old District of Columbia. Glory, Glory, Hallelujah!

Meanwhile, we learn from Fox News that “a group of six progressive US senators [led by Bernie “Moscow Honeymooner” Sanders & Liz “Pocahontas” Warren] criticized the Biden Administration’s ‘extraordinarily disappointing’” failure to remove marijuana from Schedule I of the Controlled Substances Act as they demanded last year, a move that’s necessary for the drug to be acknowledged as having “accepted medical use.” And, oh, the Dem Senators are pissed Joe’s “pledge to decriminalize marijuana & automatically expunge past convictions” is going nowhere as well. My advice to Bernie & Liz: Relax, lean back in one of those ergometric, leather Senate seats, and enjoy a toke’s calming, pain-killing benefits you seem addicted to.
