Published on May 20, 2017 Attorney General Jeff Sessions recently issued new sentencing rules to help fill prisons, and his renewed attack on marijuana is certain to put more and more people behind bars. The only people who benefit from this are private prison owners, and they are currently celebrating Sessions’ moves because they know it’ll only serve to make them even richer. Ring of Fire’s Farron Cousins discusses this. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GOr47k5JgmM |

Sessions extended a law barring funding for the confiscation of medical marijuana dispensaries. This is focused on opioids Why do you lie? |

Attorney General Sessions is a big step backwards. We will be forced to gain the same ground twice once these fools are gone. |

Almost 50 years since the current "war on drugs" commenced. Over a trillion dollar later along with mass incarceration, suspensions of liberty via asset forfeiture and no knock raids, all major street drugs are plentiful and easy to obtain. And yet somehow, Sessions thinks doubling down will make a difference. |

Ring of Fire is not fake news. Mike Papantonio is one of the best attorneys in the country, representing workers and other victims of some of the big corporations . LINK https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4K0xb8JUkbc Edited by _g R_, Jun 13 2017, 05:34 PM.

Its fake news. I think Sessions is wrong regarding drugs, specifically marijuana. Treat addiction as a health matter, not criminal. That said, marijuana's trajectory hasn't been altered by Sessions' confirmation as AG, that is anti-Trump propaganda by the left. |

Just keep calling everything you don't want to hear "fake news" and see how it works out. The story of the boy who cried wolf comes to mind doesn't it ? Eventually, nobody will believe you and they'll all go back to having their own thoughts and opinions about what's real or not. Every sane dog and his 5 monkeys knows Fox News is the most fake of all, but it's still the top rated news channel in the US isn't it ? Edited by _g R_, Jun 14 2017, 11:26 AM.
