Bipartisan lawmakers tell Trump to respect state marijuana laws

Posted on by

“The group of 54 lawmakers sent a letter to the president on Thursday asking him to go against Attorney General Jeff Sessions’ attempts to roll back protections on state marijuana laws, reports Marijuana Moment‘s Tom Angell.

As a candidate, you stated: ‘I really believe we should leave [marijuana] up to the states’ and that ‘it’s got to be a state decision.’ We trust that you still hold this belief, and we request that you urge the Attorney General to reinstate the Cole Memorandum,

wrote the group of lawmakers led by Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) and Rep. Jared Polis (D-CO).”

German police sue American woman for slander for calling them ‘Nazis’

Posted on by

“An angry American traveler found herself plunged into German legal waters this month after allegedly calling federal police officers ‘Nazis’ during a dispute at Frankfurt International Airport.  Police say the woman, a 49-year-old professor, became ‘unreasonable and irritated’ when they told her she had too many liquids in her carry-on during a screening for explosives.  The issue of too many liquids morphed quickly — by her own account – into a tail-chasing argument over her deodorant:  They insisted it must go; she claimed that made no sense since it was a solid.”

Release The FISA Memo. Let’s See What’s In It

Posted on by

“The allegation that the Obama administration put the law-enforcement and intelligence arms of the federal government in the service of the Clinton campaign to undermine the Trump campaign is, they maintain, an overwrought conspiracy theory. If that is true, then Democrats — who have had the opportunity to review the memo — should be clamoring for it to be disclosed, not fighting its release.”

Mexico’s drug cartels now hooked on stealing fuel from state refineries

Posted on by

“Because of government offensives that toppled narco kingpins in recent years, Mexico’s drug cartels have splintered and are eager for new sources of revenue. Now, their increasingly dominant role as fuel thieves pits two of the country’s biggest industries – narcotics and oil – against one another. A May 2017 study, commissioned by the national energy regulator and obtained by Reuters via a freedom of information request, found that thieves, between 2009 and 2016, had tapped pipelines roughly every 1.4 kms (0.86 mi) along Pemex’s approximately 14,000 km pipeline network.”

Republicans want ‘dreamers’ to live under permanent suspicion

Posted on by

“Instant criminalization of millions of people. That’s a lot of new customers for those privatized immigration detention centers.  The private prison industry, incidentally, donated handsomely to Trump’s campaign and inauguration.”

Why going to 7-Eleven has become a political act

Posted on by

“On Jan. 10, U.S. Customs and Immigration Enforcement agents descended on 98 7-Elevens in 17 states, including California. It was a show of force that must have played well with the president’s anti-immigrant base.  21 workers suspected of being in the country illegally were arrested nationwide.  The raids were nothing but political theater, intended to terrify the most vulnerable.”

Undocumented and disillusioned, I left America. This loss is mutual.

Posted on by

“I left behind great friends. I left behind most of my belongings. I left behind my illusions of ever becoming a U.S. citizen. I take with me the fond memories of the college that gave me my education. I carry no grudges. The way I see it, this loss is mutual: I lost the chance to have a life in America. America lost the chance to have me.”
