Summary

Why is the federal government rushing to hand massive tax breaks to the marijuana industry? The truth about high-potency THC and the corporate lobbying behind it is worse than you think. I’m joined by former White House drug policy adviser Kevin Sabet to expose the reality of the modern marijuana industry. This isn't the weed of the 1970s. Today’s genetically engineered, 99% THC products are fueling a crisis of psychosis, crime, vagrancy, homelessness, and addiction across America, while the black market thrives more than ever. We break down the Trump administration's shocking push to reschedule marijuana to Schedule III, revealing how the "medical" narrative was weaponized as a Trojan horse to enrich a new class of corporate cronies. From the devastation of lower-income neighborhoods to the hypocrisy of elements of the MAHA movement, this is the deep dive into the addiction-for-profit industry that the establishment wants to keep quiet.

1:11.0	Out of nowhere, their biggest obsession yesterday was to reschedule marijuana at a time when it's become clear that the type of marijuana we have and the adjacent THC products are even more addictive and more harmful than we thought and causing more social rot gut, more antisocial
