Baby Trump now ways rescheduling marijuana as a much lesser
dangerous drug. Good morning Cooner Country. Okay, my friends, there
is now a tremendous amount of pressure building on President
(00:33):
Trump to reclassify or reschedule marijuana i e. Cannabis as
a much lesser drug. In other words, currently now at
the federal level. I understand there are many states that
have legalized medicinal marijuana, and there are other states as
(00:54):
well that have, like here in Massachusetts as an example,
where they have legalized even recreeational marijuana. Believe me, I
know because I drive down Route one. As I pointed
out a couple shows ago, every second freaking billboard I'm
not kidding is an advertisement for a pot shops. And
(01:15):
by the way, now apparently you can get it home delivered.
So not only do you have drive through like fast
food style marijuana, marijuana edibles, whatever, bonds however you want
to smoke this thing, but you can also have it
delivered to your home. So it's a it's a thriving,
multi billion dollar business and corporate America, and they're a
(01:39):
big business, big corporate interests now that see even more
money with pot, with cannabis, with marijuana than they do
with tobacco. And if the trends continue, listen now to this,
big pot is going to be bigger than big tobacco
(02:00):
or even big pharma. That's how much they believe there
is potential growth in the market for getting people addicted
to weed. And so there is growing pressure on President
Trump to reclassify marijuana from what's called a Schedule one
drug at the federal level to a Schedule three drug,
(02:22):
a Schedule one drug, because you may ask Jeah half,
Jeh half, Jeah half, what the hell is a Schedule
one drug? And why is a Schedule three drug categorized
as a much lesser drug or a much lesser dangerous drug.
So a Schedule one drug is a drug like LSD
(02:43):
that's considered Schedule one or heroin also Schedule one, that,
according to federal researchers in Federal Health medical guidelines, has
no medical value whatsoever. In other words, you don't give it,
you don't give it to anybody for any reason, and
(03:03):
you do everything you can to prevent it from being
given to anybody or imported into the country or distributed
on the street, because it's considered a very dangerous and
the other point is a highly addictive drug. Well, marijuana
is still at the federal level considered a Schedule one drug.
(03:25):
Trump now is under great pressure to reclassify it as
a Schedule three drug, meaning a much less dangerous drug
that has some medical or medicinal value and also is
considered nowhere near as addictive as say heroin or LSD.
(03:46):
Now catamine is an example of a Schedule three drug.
Testosterone is considered a Schedule three drug. You have others
as steroids are considered a Schedule three drug. So they
want to reclassify marijuana and basically now make it, I
(04:06):
don't want to say acceptable, but much more widely available
and considered much less dangerous and much less addictive than
other more quote unquote hard drugs like say meth or
heroine or LSD or take your pick. Listen now to
(04:32):
President Trump saying he will be making a decision very
soon in consultation obviously with Health and Human Services Secretary RFK. Junior,
and he says, I understand the arguments of both sides,
it's a complicated issue, but he is now leaning towards
reclassifying marijuana as a much less dangerous and addictive drug.
(04:58):
Roll cut one D three a mic. There's reporting that
the illustration is going to reclassify marijuana. Would that send
mixed messages that marijuana is okay?
Speaker 3 (05:10):
Drugs are some drugs.
Speaker 2 (05:11):
Are okay, but we're trying to clean up crime.
Speaker 3 (05:13):
How do they go ahead and hand? We're only looking
at that. That's early, but you know, somebody reported it,
which is fine. We're looking at it. Some people like it,
some people hate it. Some people hate the whole concept
of marijuana because if it does bad for the children,
it does bad for people that are older than children.
But we're looking at reclassification and we'll make a determination
over the next i would say, over the next few weeks,
(05:34):
and that determination, hopefully will be the right. One very
complicated subject is, you know, the subject of marijuana. I've
heard great things having to do with medical, and I've
had bad things having to do with just about everything
else but medical. And you know, for pain and various things,
I've heard some pretty good things, but for other things,
I've heard some pretty bad things.
Speaker 2 (05:54):
So basically, Trump is still on the fence, has it
made a decision. Is being lobbied ferociously. I mean it
is an all out lobbying campaign, as I said, by
big Pot, by corporate America, very strong corporate interests, but
even then by even members of his own political coalition,
(06:18):
libertarians who love the idea of legalized pot. It's not
enough that it's here in Massachusetts and in other states.
They want it in all fifty states. And they believe
by reclassifying it sort of like I don't know, like
ketamine or like something, you know, whatever, something much more mild,
that they can have this become considered more mainstream, more acceptable,
(06:43):
which will make it easier for their campaign when they
go to state after state, primarily in red state America,
and have it completely legalized recreationally, not just medicinally, but recreationally. Now,
just for the record, people need to know this. The
man that really spearheaded and funded the initial drive to
(07:08):
have pought weed, marijuana, cannabis, however you want to call
it legalized across the United States is George Soros. This
is an undeniable fact. This is the same man that
pushed open borders. This is the same man that said
he wants to replace Americans with third worlders. This is
(07:29):
the same man that put in soft on crime district
attorneys to allow violent predators and criminals to roam our streets.
And a major reason why he is pushing for the
legalization of marijuana is because he ultimately wants to dumb
down the intelligence dumbed down if you want to put it,
(07:51):
the national IQ of the United States. He wants a
nation of stoners, a nation of stoners, and this is
what many socialists want. That's why up in Canada they've
completely legalized marijuana thanks to Justin Trudeau, the former Prime minister.
Many countries in Europe now weed is completely legal, so
(08:14):
called progressive, left wing countries, and I could go on
and on, because they want a populace that is stoned,
that is addicted to drugs, that is lazy, that has
suffered a little bit of brain damage from regular, frequent,
heavy use, because that makes them controllable and pliable. What
(08:39):
you don't hear from the media, which is bought and
paid for essentially by the big pot lobby, is they
try to present marijuana as your parents's pot when they
were growing up. I don't know, listening to the Beatles
or listening to the Rolling Stones, say in the nineteen
(09:02):
sixties or the nineteen seventies, and you know, they got
some marijuana that they grew from a plant or whatever
that you know, which had, by the way, about two
to three percent THCHC content low THCHC. That marijuana was
a much more milder, less addictive drug. The drug now,
(09:27):
marijuana today is a completely different drug than your parents
is marijuana. What they're selling in these cannabis, these so
called pot shops, what you're buying at these dispensaries, the
average THCHC content. Please listen to this, it's not two
to three percent. It's fifteen to twenty five percent in
(09:53):
some cases, I kids you not. You can get THHC
content that's practically one one hundred percent pure. I mean
ninety nine point nine percent at that level of THC.
Forget ninety nine percent at the fifteen to twenty five
percent THHC content that you are seeing being sold now,
(10:15):
whether it's these brownies, edibles, bongs, whether you eat it,
smoke it, I don't care. Now they put it into food.
There's like pot pizzas, pot cheeseburgers, pot tacos, pot, chicken,
chicken nuggets, you name it. That content is five, six,
(10:36):
seven times more potent than what your parents's pot was.
And what that means in plain English, it is much
more addictive. In fact, it is highly addictive. I'm going
to give you the numbers. The numbers are going to
stun you now at how many young people in this
(10:56):
country and around the world are becoming seriously a day
to weed this new powerful weed. But on top of that,
it literally destroys IQ points over long term frequent use.
It destroys your brain. It makes you lazy. It has
(11:17):
devastating crippling side effects. This is not something that you
want reclassified as a less dangerous drug, because it isn't.
