RE:RE:IS THIS SIGNATURE HUGE OR WHAT....with everything going on I forgot about the MJ part??....Trump is anti drugs, including MJ, but sees the backlash from the Reps on making MJ illegal. The Senate still has to pass this bill and the MJ part is just a little sugar to bring the ~13Dems on board to meet the 60 vote threshhold required to pass the bill. No which way they go on this bill, they will still need to pass a new bill on the legalization, or some form of, into law down the road....maybe add it to a DACA bill in March?
The DOW looks like it will close green, or as close as shite is to swearing,....this is huge, as everytime there is a threat of a shut down of the government the markets tank big time. With Apple bringing ~$350bil back to the US from overseas and investing it in building plants and creating jobs the Dems are done like dinner!!....especially with all the hatred Jobs has spewed about Trump in the past, JMHO....Opt

They have ~12hrs to pass a Continuing Resolution to keep the government fully funded...all due to the Dems demanding amnesty for ~800k illegal immigrants, Dem voters to maintain power in the collapse of the country....catastrphic insanity!!
Trump will let them shut it down and then clean out thousands more of the existing leftist government population in the process....but to what end?...dinosaurs were more evolved than humans will be able to achieve?
The brightest star on the globe is Supreme....let's get this legalized now and start supplying the world with high end FIREweed and at the very least achieve a happy end!!....heaven forbid we could all start playing nice and improve the human experience!!, JMHO....Opt

The measure was approved by a vote of 230 to 197, which extends government funding through February 16. The approved legislation extends the Rohrabacher-Farr Amendment , was was initially passed in 2014. The amendment prohibits the Department of Justice – which includes the Drug Enforcement Administration(DEA) – from using funds to enforce federal cannabis laws in states that have legalized the plant for medical use.
The legislation also extends an amendment that gives federal protection to state laws that allow for the cultivation of hemp for research purposes.
The measure must now be approved by the Senate before it can be sent to President Trump for final consideration.
