One thing stood out to me in this article I just read about how the DEA is planning on reclassifying marijuana as a schedule III drug instead of a schedule I drug, and that is this line right here:

The election year announcement could help Biden, a Democrat, boost flagging support, particularly among younger voters.

Yes, it's an election year, folks, so of course we're going to throw a little bone to young voters with this reclassification of marijuana to a less dangerous drug. The Dems are desperate.

Agree or disagree with the policy, it's clearly just election year politics. Just like this little gem right here:

Okay, let's get back to marijuana, cuz that's what we came here for.

The proposal, which still must be reviewed by the White House Office of Management and Budget [OMB], would recognize the medical uses of cannabis and acknowledge it has less potential for abuse than some of the nation's most dangerous drugs. However, it would not legalize marijuana outright for recreational use.

The agency's move … clears the last significant regulatory hurdle before the agency's biggest policy change in more than 50 years can take effect.

Once OMB signs off, the DEA will take public comment on the plan to move marijuana from its current classification as a Schedule I drug, alongside heroin and LSD. It moves pot to Schedule III, alongside ketamine and some anabolic steroids, following a recommendation from the federal Health and Human Services Department. After the public comment period and a review by an administrative judge, the agency would eventually publish the final rule.

"Today, the Attorney General circulated a proposal to reclassify marijuana from Schedule I to Schedule III," Justice Department director of public affairs Xochitl Hinojosa said in a statement. The DEA is a component of the Department of Justice. "Once published by the Federal Register, it will initiate a formal rulemaking process as prescribed by Congress in the Controlled Substances Act."

Attorney General Merrick Garland's signature throws the full weight of the Justice Department behind the move and appears to signal its importance to the Biden administration.

Again, of course this is important for the Biden administration.

And this rulemaking process could take months, which I can guarantee will be all over the news cycle leading up to election day in November.

Important to note, marijuana would no longer be banned federally, but it will remain a controlled substance, so you can still face federal prosecution if you illegally traffic the drug. We're basically seeing the rollout of federal acceptance of medical marijuana. This is simply the first step in the progressive dream of complete decriminalization of marijuana. And it's not just a dream of the Left.

A Gallup poll last fall found 70% of adults support legalization, the highest level yet recorded by the polling firm and more than double the roughly 30% who backed it in 2000.

Again, you can agree or disagree with this policy change. But it's clearly a move to help boost Biden ahead of the election. Especially as he bleeds support from the black community.

Look for this rule change to eventually result in the outright decriminalization of marijuana over the next decade or so. It's a bipartisan issue, and our culture is opening up to the idea of potheads freely roaming the streets.

Who are we kidding? It's impossible to avoid now.

I'll tell you one thing that's for sure:

The alcohol lobby is NOT gonna be happy about this one.
