But Congressional Democrats and 38 00:01:57,400 --> 00:02:01,600 Speaker 1: others are criticizing, of course, Donald Trump of abusing his 39 00:02:01,720 --> 00:02:05,440 Speaker 1: power and an assault on a rule of law after 40 00:02:05,480 --> 00:02:09,440 Speaker 1: the Republican president on Friday gave an executive clemency to 41 00:02:09,600 --> 00:02:13,600 Speaker 1: lifelong front and advisor Roger Stone, at sixty seven years old. 42 00:02:13,639 --> 00:02:16,960 Speaker 1: Stone Stone was sentenced to three years and four months 43 00:02:17,000 --> 00:02:20,959 Speaker 1: in prison after he was convicted of obstruction, witness tampering, 44 00:02:21,080 --> 00:02:24,040 Speaker 1: and lying to Congress about the Russian interference in that 45 00:02:24,080 --> 00:02:26,200 Speaker 1: two thousand six U S election, and a few more 46 00:02:26,240 --> 00:02:29,120 Speaker 1: things that Craig will point out as well and isn't 47 00:02:29,280 --> 00:02:31,400 Speaker 1: in his original sentence. He was called for him to 48 00:02:31,400 --> 00:02:35,760 Speaker 1: be on supervised released, uh for two years now. US 49 00:02:35,880 --> 00:02:40,360 Speaker 1: District Judge Amy Berman Jackson, who presided over Stone's trial, 50 00:02:40,440 --> 00:02:43,799 Speaker 1: set at July fourteenth deadline, which we're actually recording this 51 00:02:44,000 --> 00:02:47,280 Speaker 1: on the fourteenth, you guys, and received a copy of 52 00:02:47,320 --> 00:02:50,800 Speaker 1: Trump's clemency order, so he announced it four days before 53 00:02:50,840 --> 00:02:52,799 Speaker 1: on a Friday, so would kind of go into the 54 00:02:52,880 --> 00:02:55,160 Speaker 1: radar over the weekend. That's what a lot of political 55 00:02:55,200 --> 00:02:56,880 Speaker 1: people do, right when they do something, they want to 56 00:02:56,880 --> 00:02:58,520 Speaker 1: do it on a Friday so that you forget about it, 57 00:02:58,560 --> 00:02:59,959 Speaker 1: so the news is and in front of your face 58 00:03:00,280 --> 00:03:02,040 Speaker 1: all week long about it, or there's no days in 59 00:03:02,080 --> 00:03:04,240 Speaker 1: front of you, but of course the news was out there. 60 00:03:04,520 --> 00:03:07,680 Speaker 1: Stone was due to have to report to federal prison 61 00:03:07,720 --> 00:03:11,919 Speaker 1: in Georgia on Tuesday, July fourteenth, the day this is airing. 62 00:03:12,280 --> 00:03:14,160 Speaker 1: He was supposed to go to prison for three years. Now, 63 00:03:14,160 --> 00:03:18,840 Speaker 1: Trump's actions marked his most assertive intervention to protect an 64 00:03:18,880 --> 00:03:22,640 Speaker 1: associate in a criminal case and his latest use of 65 00:03:22,720 --> 00:03:27,079 Speaker 1: executive clemency to benefit an ally. Now it's crazy because 66 00:03:27,520 --> 00:03:29,680 Speaker 1: after all this, if you don't remember former U S 67 00:03:29,680 --> 00:03:32,919 Speaker 1: Special Counsel Robert Mueller, you know, has made a rare 68 00:03:33,000 --> 00:03:37,480 Speaker 1: public interview in defending his indictment of former Trump advisor 69 00:03:37,600 --> 00:03:40,040 Speaker 1: Roger Stone, and he was saying he was found guilty 70 00:03:40,040 --> 00:03:43,040 Speaker 1: on these charges. So even for Mulla to come out, 71 00:03:43,080 --> 00:03:47,160 Speaker 1: President Trump of course commuted stone forty months jail sentence 72 00:03:47,240 --> 00:03:51,240 Speaker 1: on Friday, saying he was, uh, he was the victim 73 00:03:51,280 --> 00:03:55,560 Speaker 1: of a witch hunt. So, my boy, the guy who 74 00:03:55,600 --> 00:03:58,920 Speaker 1: was convicted of a witch hunt, who lied to Congress, 75 00:03:58,920 --> 00:04:00,720 Speaker 1: and what else did he do? Crazy? It was seven 76 00:04:00,760 --> 00:04:03,760 Speaker 1: counts actually seven all together, seven counts, seven counts of 77 00:04:04,240 --> 00:04:07,720 Speaker 1: lying to Congress. He lied that he had contact with 78 00:04:07,760 --> 00:04:11,920 Speaker 1: Week WEEKI Leaks, which released all those stolen Democrats democratic 79 00:04:11,960 --> 00:04:15,200 Speaker 1: emails right before the election. Um, you mentioned all the 80 00:04:15,200 --> 00:04:19,479 Speaker 1: other stuff as well. Um, And but so people understand 81 00:04:19,520 --> 00:04:24,680 Speaker 1: the difference between a commutation or clemency as opposed to 82 00:04:24,720 --> 00:04:29,039 Speaker 1: a pardon, a pardon, which is interesting that he didn't 83 00:04:29,080 --> 00:04:34,000 Speaker 1: pardon him would mean wipes out the entire case. So 84 00:04:34,080 --> 00:04:35,960 Speaker 1: he did, he would know he would no longer be 85 00:04:36,000 --> 00:04:38,920 Speaker 1: a felon if he had a pardon, like you're not guilty. 86 00:04:39,520 --> 00:04:41,600 Speaker 1: What he did was that might have been going too 87 00:04:41,640 --> 00:04:44,320 Speaker 1: far in Trump's head. Uh, and what people could have 88 00:04:44,360 --> 00:04:47,920 Speaker 1: done with that, let alone. The commutation is you don't 89 00:04:47,920 --> 00:04:51,040 Speaker 1: have to serve the sentence that you were convicted of. 90 00:04:52,200 --> 00:04:54,440 Speaker 1: You don't have to serve the sentence, the penalty, the 91 00:04:54,480 --> 00:04:57,160 Speaker 1: penalty for which of what you were convicted of. So 92 00:04:57,400 --> 00:05:01,160 Speaker 1: he's still a felon. That's not wiped off his record. 93 00:05:01,200 --> 00:05:04,240 Speaker 1: He just doesn't have to He didn't. He doesn't have 94 00:05:04,279 --> 00:05:06,880 Speaker 1: to start the time. While we got people with a 95 00:05:07,000 --> 00:05:09,719 Speaker 1: dime bag and fucking Phoenix going to jail for two 96 00:05:09,720 --> 00:05:14,240 Speaker 1: fucking years, and we got a guy the jury of 97 00:05:14,360 --> 00:05:19,719 Speaker 1: United States citizens compromise that jury. I don't believe that 98 00:05:19,839 --> 00:05:22,120 Speaker 1: Roger was ever guilty in the first place. What do 99 00:05:22,160 --> 00:05:24,760 Speaker 1: you mean he's you're gonna accuse him?

He 171 00:09:29,120 --> 00:09:31,800 Speaker 1: was to speak, but you know, we the owner of 172 00:09:31,840 --> 00:09:34,320 Speaker 1: the convention brought him up and we did an interview 173 00:09:34,320 --> 00:09:36,800 Speaker 1: with him regarding his pro cannabis stance, and he was 174 00:09:36,880 --> 00:09:40,160 Speaker 1: behind a cannabis lobbying firm. I believe at the time 175 00:09:40,520 --> 00:09:42,520 Speaker 1: he said he had the president's ear at the time, 176 00:09:42,600 --> 00:09:45,560 Speaker 1: but I'm not sure how close it was because nothing's happened. 177 00:09:45,600 --> 00:09:49,040 Speaker 1: That was obviously he did, but he doesn't know not 178 00:09:49,120 --> 00:09:51,600 Speaker 1: for cannabis. Unfortunate, he has his hear enough to say 179 00:09:51,640 --> 00:09:55,040 Speaker 1: get me out of this right. Any part is after 180 00:09:55,080 --> 00:09:57,640 Speaker 1: that interview, whether or not it was because of that 181 00:09:57,720 --> 00:09:59,920 Speaker 1: interview where he met us and we met us one time, 182 00:10:00,120 --> 00:10:03,559 Speaker 1: right yep. Okay, So a couple of years later when 183 00:10:03,600 --> 00:10:06,360 Speaker 1: he goes through this case as he's in the middle 184 00:10:06,440 --> 00:10:08,800 Speaker 1: of his case and he's and he's talking under this 185 00:10:08,840 --> 00:10:10,679 Speaker 1: case that we're talking about right now, this case we're 186 00:10:10,720 --> 00:10:13,240 Speaker 1: talking about now two years ago or so Marco's exact 187 00:10:13,320 --> 00:10:16,680 Speaker 1: date later, but he post because the judge imposed a 188 00:10:16,679 --> 00:10:19,120 Speaker 1: gag order on him because he wouldn't be quiet, so 189 00:10:19,160 --> 00:10:21,240 Speaker 1: the judge said, you can't. He kept running his mouth 190 00:10:21,240 --> 00:10:23,720 Speaker 1: all the time when every end of the last gag 191 00:10:23,840 --> 00:10:26,520 Speaker 1: order the judge, the judge imposed a gag order and 192 00:10:26,640 --> 00:10:30,760 Speaker 1: Roger Stone posted on his Facebook page. He reposted respect 193 00:10:30,800 --> 00:10:34,520 Speaker 1: my regions repost of one of our videos shut shut 194 00:10:34,559 --> 00:10:37,240 Speaker 1: the funk Up Videos, and then Roger Stone reposted it 195 00:10:37,360 --> 00:10:39,880 Speaker 1: saying these should be my lawyers and boo ye all. 196 00:10:44,720 --> 00:10:49,120 Speaker 1: Actually is Roger eighteen and we had a hundred nineteen 197 00:10:49,120 --> 00:10:54,880 Speaker 1: thousand followers up to that point and then that we're bolistic. 198 00:10:54,960 --> 00:10:58,640 Speaker 1: It has over four hundred or five hundred million views 199 00:10:58,679 --> 00:11:01,880 Speaker 1: across all of social media. But but but backing off 200 00:11:01,920 --> 00:11:04,800 Speaker 1: his stance online and stuff, that's you know, I'm not 201 00:11:04,840 --> 00:11:14,760 Speaker 1: gonna judge, but he didn't. But you don't have to boss. No, no, 202 00:11:14,800 --> 00:11:18,280 Speaker 1: but no, but not even that is. This is how 203 00:11:18,360 --> 00:11:21,920 Speaker 1: polarizing this ship can be, because let's set aside the 204 00:11:21,960 --> 00:11:24,760 Speaker 1: politics period, whether he was set up, it was a 205 00:11:24,760 --> 00:11:27,880 Speaker 1: wit chant, whether the hopes, whether maybe the jury was 206 00:11:27,920 --> 00:11:30,000 Speaker 1: told a bunch of crap that they believed, so maybe 207 00:11:30,040 --> 00:11:31,920 Speaker 1: it was a hope that the jury found him guilty 208 00:11:31,920 --> 00:11:34,520 Speaker 1: on who knows, right. But at the end of the day, 209 00:11:35,000 --> 00:11:38,360 Speaker 1: hopefully now that he's out, he can go back to 210 00:11:38,400 --> 00:11:41,520 Speaker 1: the stance he has for cannabis. And if you listen 211 00:11:41,559 --> 00:11:43,840 Speaker 1: a little later on, we're gonna play that interview for you. 212 00:11:43,920 --> 00:11:47,760 Speaker 1: I don't think you're gonna be blown away at his 213 00:11:47,840 --> 00:11:51,520 Speaker 1: stance on on legalizing cannabis in the United States. I 214 00:11:51,559 --> 00:11:54,160 Speaker 1: don't think for one second Roger Stone is the kind 215 00:11:54,160 --> 00:11:55,960 Speaker 1: of guy that's gonna change his standards.

Roger. 315 00:17:05,359 --> 00:17:08,399 Speaker 1: Let us know what are your views in the cannabis 316 00:17:08,440 --> 00:17:14,000 Speaker 1: space at this time. Well, I'm a conservative Republican. That 317 00:17:14,080 --> 00:17:19,040 Speaker 1: means that I think the individual should decide what they smoke, 318 00:17:19,200 --> 00:17:22,639 Speaker 1: what they ingest, who they marry, what they do in 319 00:17:22,680 --> 00:17:25,560 Speaker 1: their own bedroom. You see. The liberal view to me, 320 00:17:25,680 --> 00:17:28,200 Speaker 1: that's when the big government tells you you can't smoke, 321 00:17:28,280 --> 00:17:35,040 Speaker 1: that you can't ingest that. That's to me, that's an authoritarianism. Um. So, 322 00:17:35,520 --> 00:17:39,680 Speaker 1: I have been a forty year friend and supporter of 323 00:17:40,359 --> 00:17:43,920 Speaker 1: Donald Trump. I first urged him to run for president nine, 324 00:17:45,600 --> 00:17:48,879 Speaker 1: then again in two thousand, then again in two thousand twelve, 325 00:17:49,440 --> 00:17:55,240 Speaker 1: and then finally was successful UH in twenties sixteen. And 326 00:17:55,400 --> 00:18:01,600 Speaker 1: during the campaign for president, candidate Trump was very forthright 327 00:18:01,720 --> 00:18:05,320 Speaker 1: about the fact that he supported states rights in the 328 00:18:05,320 --> 00:18:09,360 Speaker 1: twenty nine states that had legalized marijuana, and that if 329 00:18:09,440 --> 00:18:13,320 Speaker 1: the people in those states had decided that they wanted 330 00:18:13,440 --> 00:18:19,280 Speaker 1: legal cannabis, that that should be paramount, which I think 331 00:18:19,320 --> 00:18:23,320 Speaker 1: won him millions of votes votes of younger absolutely. I 332 00:18:23,400 --> 00:18:29,040 Speaker 1: also think he also did incrementally better than say McCain 333 00:18:29,200 --> 00:18:33,200 Speaker 1: or Romney among African Americans. And you can say, if 334 00:18:33,200 --> 00:18:36,280 Speaker 1: you want, the difference between twelve percent and sixteen seems small, 335 00:18:37,440 --> 00:18:40,240 Speaker 1: but it was large enough to swing Wisconsin, was large 336 00:18:40,320 --> 00:18:43,600 Speaker 1: enough to swing Michigan, was large enough to swing Pennsylvania. 337 00:18:43,800 --> 00:18:46,800 Speaker 1: So I think this is has been a pivotal issue 338 00:18:47,160 --> 00:18:52,679 Speaker 1: for the president. Now what disturbs me is that Attorney 339 00:18:52,720 --> 00:18:59,439 Speaker 1: General Jeff Sessions and the Homeland Security Secretary John Kelly, 340 00:19:00,320 --> 00:19:06,919 Speaker 1: and the new opioid drugs are Chris Christie seemed to 341 00:19:07,000 --> 00:19:13,520 Speaker 1: be UH announcing a crackdown on legal marijuana, in complete 342 00:19:14,080 --> 00:19:17,800 Speaker 1: contradiction of what the President said in the campaign. And 343 00:19:17,880 --> 00:19:20,440 Speaker 1: I don't think they're serving the president. Well, I don't 344 00:19:20,440 --> 00:19:24,480 Speaker 1: think this reflects his views. If you go back over 345 00:19:24,560 --> 00:19:27,919 Speaker 1: twenty years ago. In an interview I think we Playboy magazine, 346 00:19:28,680 --> 00:19:30,800 Speaker 1: Donald Trump says the war on drugs is a big, 347 00:19:30,840 --> 00:19:35,119 Speaker 1: expensive failure and legalization is the answer. So he knows, 348 00:19:35,960 --> 00:19:42,960 Speaker 1: he knows the the issue, and I hope to persuade 349 00:19:43,040 --> 00:19:47,840 Speaker 1: him working with others through a nonprofit we announced here 350 00:19:47,840 --> 00:19:52,399 Speaker 1: today called the United States Cannabis Coalition UH, with a 351 00:19:52,520 --> 00:19:56,200 Speaker 1: very very narrow agenda. There's a lot of pro cannabis 352 00:19:56,320 --> 00:19:59,640 Speaker 1: organizations with a broader agenda, and and I support them 353 00:19:59,640 --> 00:20:03,560 Speaker 1: and I salute them. We have one narrow agenda. Convinced 354 00:20:03,640 --> 00:20:08,199 Speaker 1: the president, urged the President to keep his promise and 355 00:20:08,280 --> 00:20:13,000 Speaker 1: protect legal cannabis in twenty nine states and then secondarily 356 00:20:14,080 --> 00:20:17,600 Speaker 1: take the historic step that Barack Obama did not take 357 00:20:18,480 --> 00:20:22,680 Speaker 1: and end the Schedule one classification of cannabis, which, as 358 00:20:22,720 --> 00:20:27,359 Speaker 1: you know, prevents physicians from prescribing it. Yes, that's where 359 00:20:27,359 --> 00:20:31,520 Speaker 1: we are today. That's the fight that we face, and 360 00:20:31,600 --> 00:20:34,199 Speaker 1: it's going to take, in my opinion, a coalition of 361 00:20:34,240 --> 00:20:40,280 Speaker 1: Republicans and Democrats, liberals and conservatives, progressives and libertarians, working 362 00:20:40,320 --> 00:20:44,159 Speaker 1: together on this issue where we have common ground, and 363 00:20:44,320 --> 00:20:49,439 Speaker 1: we have got to mobilize millions of people simply to 364 00:20:49,520 --> 00:20:52,600 Speaker 1: remind the President and urge him to keep his pledge. 365 00:20:54,119 --> 00:20:56,080 Speaker 1: Very well said, I mean, I think we're in that 366 00:20:56,119 --> 00:21:00,000 Speaker 1: state right now where everybody is feeling the same way, 367 00:21:00,040 --> 00:21:03,880 Speaker 1: and he put um Sessions in play, right, And yeah, 368 00:21:04,280 --> 00:21:07,160 Speaker 1: I don't know how that jives with U States rights. 369 00:21:07,480 --> 00:21:09,560 Speaker 1: I mean, that's what I don't understand. If if you're 370 00:21:09,560 --> 00:21:12,600 Speaker 1: a conservative Republican, how can you what are you trying 371 00:21:12,640 --> 00:21:17,800 Speaker 1: to legislate morals? The ones who don't want to uh, 372 00:21:17,880 --> 00:21:21,040 Speaker 1: they want to deny the science. Sessions wants to deny 373 00:21:21,160 --> 00:21:24,120 Speaker 1: the science of marijuana, and I don't think he doesn't 374 00:21:24,160 --> 00:21:28,080 Speaker 1: even want to acknowledge the science. Look, there's an inconsistency here. 375 00:21:28,200 --> 00:21:31,600 Speaker 1: You can't say, well, when it comes to transgender bathrooms, 376 00:21:31,600 --> 00:21:34,280 Speaker 1: I'm for states rights. When it comes to gay marriage, 377 00:21:34,320 --> 00:21:36,960 Speaker 1: I'm for states rights. When it comes to abortion, I'm 378 00:21:37,000 --> 00:21:40,600 Speaker 1: for gates rights. Oh, cannabis, No, we gotta illegally gonna 379 00:21:40,600 --> 00:21:44,600 Speaker 1: make that illegal fition. I agree. I agree there's an 380 00:21:44,600 --> 00:21:49,919 Speaker 1: internal inconsistency here, uh that the Attorney General seems to 381 00:21:49,920 --> 00:21:54,239 Speaker 1: be unaware of and in all honesty, I have no 382 00:21:54,320 --> 00:21:58,159 Speaker 1: idea at this juncture whether the President has any idea 383 00:21:58,880 --> 00:22:03,159 Speaker 1: what Sessions is talking about in his name is that 384 00:22:03,160 --> 00:22:05,840 Speaker 1: that seems to be problematic. How how how can he 385 00:22:05,920 --> 00:22:08,119 Speaker 1: not know? Well, he has a few other things on 386 00:22:08,200 --> 00:22:13,399 Speaker 1: his mind. Well, that true, true, um. And again the 387 00:22:13,440 --> 00:22:17,040 Speaker 1: good news is that while the Attorney General has announced 388 00:22:17,040 --> 00:22:20,160 Speaker 1: his intention to do these things, he hasn't done them yet. 389 00:22:20,200 --> 00:22:22,280 Speaker 1: Now we learned a couple of days ago that he 390 00:22:22,280 --> 00:22:25,080 Speaker 1: wrote a letter to the Congress asking essentially for permission 391 00:22:25,680 --> 00:22:29,879 Speaker 1: to prosecute people for possession in the states where cannabis 392 00:22:29,880 --> 00:22:33,000 Speaker 1: has been legalized. This is a slippery slope. This is 393 00:22:33,040 --> 00:22:36,560 Speaker 1: turning back the clock. And then we had the Homeland 394 00:22:36,600 --> 00:22:42,159 Speaker 1: Security Secretary say in an incredible interview, marijuana is a 395 00:22:42,200 --> 00:22:45,600 Speaker 1: gateway drug. Ridiculous is this Scott? What planet is this 396 00:22:45,640 --> 00:22:48,480 Speaker 1: guy on? What century does he live in? Never? This 397 00:22:48,520 --> 00:22:52,600 Speaker 1: has been disproven, just just in terms of raw mathematics. 398 00:22:53,440 --> 00:22:59,120 Speaker 1: Millions of people smoke marijuana and therefore or use marijuana. Therefore, 399 00:22:59,400 --> 00:23:02,119 Speaker 1: if it's a gay way drug which leads to harder drugs, 400 00:23:02,200 --> 00:23:04,639 Speaker 1: where are the millions of heroin attics? Where are the 401 00:23:04,680 --> 00:23:07,520 Speaker 1: millions of cocaine as they don't exist. So this has 402 00:23:07,560 --> 00:23:12,800 Speaker 1: been disproven. This kind of anti this drug war rhetoric, 403 00:23:13,840 --> 00:23:17,439 Speaker 1: that's false. But we do have the the caucus now 404 00:23:17,480 --> 00:23:20,639 Speaker 1: the marijuana Caucus, So the cannabis Caucus direct comprised of 405 00:23:20,680 --> 00:23:23,960 Speaker 1: Democrats and Republicans. Yeah. See, I think that's the fallback here, 406 00:23:24,000 --> 00:23:30,000 Speaker 1: which is, if God forbid, we are unsuccessful in convincing 407 00:23:30,000 --> 00:23:33,640 Speaker 1: the President to put a lid on Attorney General Sessions, 408 00:23:34,320 --> 00:23:37,240 Speaker 1: if there is going to be a crackdown, well then 409 00:23:37,240 --> 00:23:41,520 Speaker 1: the answer is full legalization by the Congress. And I 410 00:23:41,560 --> 00:23:45,639 Speaker 1: believe that the votes probably exist in the House today 411 00:23:45,680 --> 00:23:50,199 Speaker 1: between liberal Democrats and libertarian Republicans. The votes don't exist 412 00:23:50,200 --> 00:23:53,880 Speaker 1: in the Senate today, but that doesn't mean we couldn't 413 00:23:53,960 --> 00:23:58,320 Speaker 1: find the votes. Um, and I have to tell you, guys, 414 00:23:58,560 --> 00:24:02,880 Speaker 1: this is an industry that is generating hundreds of millions 415 00:24:02,880 --> 00:24:06,600 Speaker 1: of dollars of revenues for states and counties that would 416 00:24:06,600 --> 00:24:11,920 Speaker 1: otherwise be bankrupt, and is creating hundreds of thousands of jobs, 417 00:24:12,400 --> 00:24:15,240 Speaker 1: all of which is consistent with the president's planned to 418 00:24:15,240 --> 00:24:19,520 Speaker 1: make America great again. So this is a plus plus 419 00:24:19,560 --> 00:24:24,320 Speaker 1: for the administration if they will simply this passionately look 420 00:24:24,359 --> 00:24:27,200 Speaker 1: at the facts I think it's a real estate play 421 00:24:27,480 --> 00:24:29,960 Speaker 1: in all. I mean, you know, a four million dollar 422 00:24:30,040 --> 00:24:32,600 Speaker 1: property turns into a twelve million dollar property if it's 423 00:24:32,600 --> 00:24:35,840 Speaker 1: in the green zone in the city of Coasta Mesa, California. 424 00:24:36,160 --> 00:24:39,240 Speaker 1: You know, you're you're you're talking about Colorado's economy going 425 00:24:39,280 --> 00:24:42,600 Speaker 1: through the root by the billions, pulling point four billions, 426 00:24:42,640 --> 00:24:46,720 Speaker 1: pulling out cities like Atalanto there's nowhere city and bankruptcy 427 00:24:46,760 --> 00:24:50,480 Speaker 1: backwards by by almost a couple of million dollars and 428 00:24:50,520 --> 00:24:52,400 Speaker 1: pulls them right out of it in the first year. 429 00:24:52,680 --> 00:24:55,639 Speaker 1: I mean, it's obvious that it's helping our economy. Well, 430 00:24:55,640 --> 00:25:00,280 Speaker 1: I mean, at least we did get the Warbacker lumin 431 00:25:00,359 --> 00:25:04,719 Speaker 1: Our Amendment to the to the spending bill. And uh, 432 00:25:06,000 --> 00:25:09,600 Speaker 1: I mean Dana Warbocker has been an art and supporter, yes, 433 00:25:09,920 --> 00:25:14,480 Speaker 1: and conservative Republican. And that's what I argue with my 434 00:25:14,520 --> 00:25:16,920 Speaker 1: conservative Republican friends is like, come on, like you said, 435 00:25:17,400 --> 00:25:21,320 Speaker 1: states rights, but not on this issue. On Yeah, the problem, 436 00:25:21,320 --> 00:25:26,600 Speaker 1: of course is that you cannot talk about conservatives monolithically 437 00:25:26,760 --> 00:25:29,199 Speaker 1: anymore than you can talk about liberals monolithically. We have 438 00:25:29,720 --> 00:25:34,080 Speaker 1: economic conservatives, we have social conservatives, we have foreign policy 439 00:25:34,119 --> 00:25:38,040 Speaker 1: and defense conservatives. We have libertarian So maybe the movement 440 00:25:38,040 --> 00:25:41,760 Speaker 1: has been too successful. But um, I argue with some 441 00:25:41,880 --> 00:25:45,840 Speaker 1: of my social conservative friends about marijuana, but there's not 442 00:25:45,920 --> 00:25:49,159 Speaker 1: much to argue about because the facts are all in. 443 00:25:50,320 --> 00:25:52,800 Speaker 1: This is this is a giant success in the twenty 444 00:25:52,880 --> 00:25:56,960 Speaker 1: nine states where it's been legalized. So in those states, 445 00:25:57,720 --> 00:26:04,520 Speaker 1: opioid addiction down, opioid deaths down, drove overdoses down, and 446 00:26:04,640 --> 00:26:09,199 Speaker 1: minor armed armed robbery down, breaking and entering down, uh 447 00:26:09,440 --> 00:26:14,560 Speaker 1: kr ff down, all small petty crimes down, the exact 448 00:26:14,600 --> 00:26:18,280 Speaker 1: opposite of what they told us would happen. There's not 449 00:26:18,359 --> 00:26:21,320 Speaker 1: much to guess about here. The facts are in. They 450 00:26:21,359 --> 00:26:24,360 Speaker 1: would just read it, look at it, but they don't 451 00:26:24,359 --> 00:26:26,160 Speaker 1: seem to want to do that at the highest levels. Well, 452 00:26:26,160 --> 00:26:28,639 Speaker 1: what can we as a community and as individuals, what 453 00:26:28,680 --> 00:26:33,040 Speaker 1: would you suggest people do to further the end of 454 00:26:33,040 --> 00:26:37,320 Speaker 1: of getting in the president's here and making him true 455 00:26:37,840 --> 00:26:40,400 Speaker 1: to his claim. First of all, don't attack the president 456 00:26:40,440 --> 00:26:43,040 Speaker 1: because he has not yet said or done anything wrong 457 00:26:43,119 --> 00:26:46,560 Speaker 1: so far. Everything he said on this uh, everything he 458 00:26:46,640 --> 00:26:48,960 Speaker 1: said on this issue issue I think is consistent with 459 00:26:49,080 --> 00:26:52,879 Speaker 1: the people here today. Thing. Um, I think you have 460 00:26:53,000 --> 00:26:56,000 Speaker 1: to remind him of his pledge and just urge him 461 00:26:56,000 --> 00:27:00,119 Speaker 1: to keep faith with the millions of people who are 462 00:27:00,119 --> 00:27:03,720 Speaker 1: getting medical benefits from cannabis today. How do we do 463 00:27:03,800 --> 00:27:07,439 Speaker 1: that as an individual, Let's say, uh, letting him know 464 00:27:07,600 --> 00:27:09,920 Speaker 1: keep your promise. Well, there's a lot of different ways. 465 00:27:10,240 --> 00:27:13,399 Speaker 1: One you can, obviously, you can contribute to the United 466 00:27:13,440 --> 00:27:17,119 Speaker 1: States Cannabis Coalition, because we're gonna be buying U both 467 00:27:17,200 --> 00:27:22,359 Speaker 1: broadcast television, cable television, digital advertising UM, targeted at the 468 00:27:22,359 --> 00:27:25,800 Speaker 1: district Columbia, targeted at our decision makers, particularly targeted at 469 00:27:25,800 --> 00:27:29,920 Speaker 1: the president UM. But also you can call two oh 470 00:27:29,960 --> 00:27:33,040 Speaker 1: two four five six one four one four and you 471 00:27:33,080 --> 00:27:35,400 Speaker 1: can leave a message for the president UM, and they're 472 00:27:35,440 --> 00:27:38,680 Speaker 1: set up to do that. And yeah, millions of people 473 00:27:38,720 --> 00:27:42,000 Speaker 1: called that number every day and told the President to 474 00:27:42,080 --> 00:27:46,919 Speaker 1: keep his pledge to one two aparty two zero two 475 00:27:47,280 --> 00:27:50,560 Speaker 1: four or five six one four one four. There's a 476 00:27:50,560 --> 00:27:54,800 Speaker 1: public comments section there. White House operator will answer UM. 477 00:27:54,840 --> 00:27:59,639 Speaker 1: That's another way. We're going to have a very broad 478 00:28:00,080 --> 00:28:06,960 Speaker 1: outreach to millions of people who support cannabis rights, and 479 00:28:07,000 --> 00:28:09,200 Speaker 1: we will have a dozen different ways. You can sign 480 00:28:09,200 --> 00:28:12,280 Speaker 1: a postcard to the president, you can sign a petition 481 00:28:12,320 --> 00:28:15,920 Speaker 1: to the president. This is about numbers. Donald Trump is 482 00:28:15,960 --> 00:28:19,719 Speaker 1: a guy who's not an ideologue. He's a pragmatist. He's 483 00:28:19,720 --> 00:28:24,040 Speaker 1: interested in results, he's interest in facts. Now, I can't 484 00:28:24,040 --> 00:28:26,040 Speaker 1: tell you that he's getting all the facts today. It's 485 00:28:26,119 --> 00:28:28,720 Speaker 1: up to us to make sure that he has the facts. 486 00:28:29,040 --> 00:28:31,480 Speaker 1: My forty year experience with him is that when he 487 00:28:31,520 --> 00:28:35,640 Speaker 1: has all the facts, he almost inevitably makes the right decision. 488 00:28:36,000 --> 00:28:38,880 Speaker 1: This is a no brainer. I mean, cannabis is not 489 00:28:38,960 --> 00:28:42,400 Speaker 1: part of the problem. Cannabis is part of the solution 490 00:28:42,840 --> 00:28:47,800 Speaker 1: to make America right again.

I didn't intend on it, 495 00:29:09,120 --> 00:29:11,200 Speaker 1: but I was so just intrigued in what you've done 496 00:29:11,240 --> 00:29:15,200 Speaker 1: in your career. Um, I'm I think you're I'm proud 497 00:29:15,240 --> 00:29:18,200 Speaker 1: to be here next to you. UM. I respect what 498 00:29:18,320 --> 00:29:22,040 Speaker 1: you've done. Uh, and I think that there's uh not 499 00:29:22,200 --> 00:29:24,920 Speaker 1: any other Roger Stone in the world, you know. Um, 500 00:29:25,040 --> 00:29:28,680 Speaker 1: So congratulations on all of your successes, and thank you 501 00:29:28,920 --> 00:29:31,840 Speaker 1: dearly for being here. I truly knew that. And um, 502 00:29:32,080 --> 00:29:33,640 Speaker 1: you know, if you ever need to get anything out 503 00:29:33,680 --> 00:29:36,520 Speaker 1: on radio. From our point of view, we do have 504 00:29:36,560 --> 00:29:39,640 Speaker 1: a wide listenership. We'd love to help support you on that. Well. 505 00:29:39,720 --> 00:29:43,120 Speaker 1: I appreciate being here, you know. I think that in 506 00:29:43,240 --> 00:29:50,160 Speaker 1: politics and in life, tenacity and persistence and resilience are important, 507 00:29:50,800 --> 00:29:53,160 Speaker 1: and I intend to bring those things to the fight 508 00:29:53,280 --> 00:29:57,040 Speaker 1: for Labal cabin This is my major focus now. This, 509 00:29:57,200 --> 00:29:59,240 Speaker 1: I think is the thing I can do is the 510 00:29:59,280 --> 00:30:03,480 Speaker 1: most benef official to the country. I got into politics 511 00:30:03,520 --> 00:30:06,480 Speaker 1: because of a set of beliefs, not because I wanted 512 00:30:06,480 --> 00:30:08,640 Speaker 1: a title or I wanted to make an income where 513 00:30:08,640 --> 00:30:11,160 Speaker 1: I wanted a job, where I wanted to meet cool people. Well, 514 00:30:11,200 --> 00:30:12,880 Speaker 1: I did want to meet girls. I did that, but 515 00:30:13,800 --> 00:30:18,680 Speaker 1: other than that, so uh so, to me, this is 516 00:30:18,720 --> 00:30:23,000 Speaker 1: not only a fight about personal freedom. But both my 517 00:30:23,120 --> 00:30:26,320 Speaker 1: father and my grandfather died of cancer. They both had 518 00:30:26,360 --> 00:30:30,280 Speaker 1: to undergo chemotherapy and radiation. Neither one of them could 519 00:30:30,320 --> 00:30:34,960 Speaker 1: get any relief other than with cannabis. And therefore I've 520 00:30:35,000 --> 00:30:38,360 Speaker 1: lived this. It's why it's important to me. Uh And 521 00:30:38,360 --> 00:30:41,400 Speaker 1: I'm gonna be out there and I think that we 522 00:30:41,440 --> 00:30:44,760 Speaker 1: need the support of everyone. I don't care if you 523 00:30:44,760 --> 00:30:50,840 Speaker 1: and I disagree about Russia or or war or the 524 00:30:50,880 --> 00:30:55,600 Speaker 1: Iraq War, or any of the current issues. I want 525 00:30:55,640 --> 00:30:58,800 Speaker 1: liberals and conservatives, I want left and right, I want 526 00:30:58,800 --> 00:31:02,200 Speaker 1: progressives and liberty areas. Here is an issue on which 527 00:31:02,240 --> 00:31:05,320 Speaker 1: we could all have common ground. The time is now. 528 00:31:06,160 --> 00:31:10,600 Speaker 1: The United States CAB Cannabis Coalition is going to take 529 00:31:10,640 --> 00:31:13,400 Speaker 1: on this dar omission, and I appreciate the opportunity to 530 00:31:13,440 --> 00:31:15,840 Speaker 1: be here. Many thanks, Thank you very much, Thank you 531 00:31:15,960 --> 00:31:19,360 Speaker 1: very much. One last question for you, certainly Latin next 532 00:31:19,400 --> 00:31:23,240 Speaker 1: three years, whereas cannaba is going to be in nerve mine. Well, 533 00:31:23,640 --> 00:31:25,840 Speaker 1: it's pretty clear to me that we are moving towards 534 00:31:25,960 --> 00:31:30,600 Speaker 1: legalization in fifty states. It will ultimately happen. Then federal 535 00:31:30,600 --> 00:31:33,440 Speaker 1: world law would be an anachronism. It would be it 536 00:31:33,480 --> 00:31:36,920 Speaker 1: would have no value and no use whatsoever. This is 537 00:31:37,040 --> 00:31:40,680 Speaker 1: very much like gay marriage. It's an idea whose time 538 00:31:40,720 --> 00:31:44,480 Speaker 1: has come. The opposition is falling away on the basis 539 00:31:44,560 --> 00:31:48,200 Speaker 1: of the facts that they can no longer dissemble about 540 00:31:48,320 --> 00:31:52,240 Speaker 1: what this means. All their projections of doom and disaster 541 00:31:52,400 --> 00:31:57,920 Speaker 1: have been law have been disproven. The future belongs to us. 542 00:31:57,960 --> 00:32:00,120 Speaker 1: Thank you for being on the show. Mr Rogers.
