This to me just totally seems like something they would do.
The drug war is a disaster in itself that was started by the deep state in order to wage war on Americans, anyway. Like every deep state plan they phrase it as something that's for our own good. After decades of drug war, overdoses are at an all-time high, drug-use is at an all-time high, deep state was flooding inner cities with crack, using drugs as pretext for violation of 2A, as well as excessive and seizure and civil asset forfeiture. I could go on at length about this but that's what my assessment of what the plan is.
Trump said in office that if congress gave him a bill to legalize cannabis he'd sign off on it, but otherwise took no real action. As someone who works in legal cannabis I was very pleased with how much he left us alone at the state level and only intervened in operations that trafficked stuff into or out of their respective legalized states, therefore breaking the laws of the states that legalized it and infringing on the sovereignty of states that didn't.
Now the deep state is trying to sell conservatives on more drug war by hyping up military intervention against the cartels. Was that ever necessary when Trump was in office? We don't need another long drawn out expensive foreign military intervention, he had a great relationship with the president of Mexico and was working with him to clean up corruption!
But I think the deep state will try this, give a too-little-too-late concession (they've already lost the optics war for the most part and now just appear brazenly tyrannical) on cannabis legalization, and have their controlled op conservative mouthpieces really step up the attacks on cannabis, so it drives the liberty minded people and moderates away from conservatives and back towards Dems.
And it's really fucking funny seeing all these conservatives/GOP who for the last few years were ranting and raving about tyrannical government and appearing to be the "party of liberty" jumping back on the prohibition train and speaking out against cannabis.
God damn I hate RINOs. If it weren't for Trump I would probably vote libertarian, except the Libertarian party is also fundamentally broken.
Legalization. while thc should be, there's the question of harder drugs. The processing of drugs into monster chems that are waaay to potent is the issue. I'm afraid the fentynol, meth, coke chemical enhancements are already out there and cant be undone. If there was a way to get back to less lethal, and less socially problematic substances such as opium, coco leaves we might be able to legalize most drugs. But the nature of drugs makes it impossible. Some people will need to have their access to these drugs managed. A dispensary system works for weed and *may work for other drugs.. and that 'management' should not be some top-down, one size fits all, government behemoth.
Also. I'm an advocate of psychedelic therapies for people who want help with their addiction. Weed and Shrooms should be first to be legalized and the latter should be rolled out for therapy to help those with deep seated addictions. It has been shown to work.
Fentanyl and Tranq are straight up bio weapons and severe sanctions against countries that allow it to be manufactured and shipped should be in place now. Special Forces interdiction should be used domestically on manufacturers/distributors. Those "drugs" are just another form of the Cabal's guidestone agenda.
