What the fuck are you on about? None of this shit, weed included, would be a problem if the republicans would stop fucking about.
The president doesn’t control the actions of the States, or the Supreme Court.
CLAPS well done US education system /s
Sorry buddy but Biden himself criminalized cannabis and weakened border protections so the American contracted dealers could illegally smuggle abortions across the border.
It's like you libs never think.
(/S - edit: I don't really care about downvotes but I want everyone reading this to know this is intended to be a joke)
Oh, you’re being “sarcastic” and mocking the republicans for their ignorance. You got me. Ate that onion.
It's really telling that something so dumb is so believable to be their actual thoughts
The 1994 Crime Bill is the kernel of truth that makes your joke sound plausible to someone who's only half-paying attention.
It’s the lead poisoning.
Oh really Biden weakened border protections? How?
That's the joke, guess the /S wasn't big enough lol Obviously Biden didn't criminalize cannabis, that happened many years before. Biden has actually supported stricter border control, so that's also obviously false. Stg lemmy users Also how the fuck does criminalizing weed have anything to do with 'smuggling' abortions, as if that's even a thing either
LMFAO My bad I didn't even see the /s but I hear that so often I was like damn did I miss something this admin.
