Americans for Ibogaine is grateful for the growing national media coverage helping bring awareness to veterans' mental health and addiction recovery. https://t.co/gfk2JK7rey #Veterans#PTSD
@_NYVKU7 You mean the slave-grown THCa flower and lab-made synthetics currently being referred to as “hemp”?
Why didn’t these governors do anything about it I wonder…
Do you have any clue what the Texas Medical program has to offer?
Do you realize there are only three active licenses right now and the other 12 won’t be operational for years? Do you understand there are areas in this state that do not have access to the program because of the limited licenses? Do you realize the limited products that are offered? Do you know the limited amount of qualifying conditions? If you knew any of this, you would understand why Texas needs Hemp.
Before the Senate adjourns, we must pass the SAVE America Act, confirm @POTUS's outstanding noms, & fund the govt.
I'm offering an amendment to the CR to strip out an extension of the hemp loophole to ensure unregulated, dangerous intoxicants are not sold, especially to kids.
Texas patients can get an MMJ card and start pressuring their local and state officials to expand the program.
What actually happened is Texas passed the medical law in 2015 and the first patients finally got product in 2018. The three licenses were never meant to be the permanent ceiling, but meaningful expansion kept getting blocked. Then the 2018 Farm Bill and Texas’s 2019 hemp law opened the floodgates for intoxicating hemp products that undercut the medical program for years.
@DanPatrick has long opposed broader marijuana access and was content to let the medical program stay tiny while the unregulated hemp market exploded until pressured. @GregAbbott_TX signed a few limited expansions but never treated patient access like a real priority which is WILD because HE'S disabled. A functioning, properly scaled medical program would have killed most of the demand for that intoxicating hemp nonsense and you know it. Fifteen licenses for a state this size is still an insult.
So yes, Brian, I completely understand that Texas needs a real MMJ program. If more people actually got cards and made noise about it, the state would be forced to keep expanding instead of hiding behind the same three operators for almost a decade.
@BrianDaniel1972@Mason37613833 I was replying to that specific comment. Not concerned about the ban. Now Texans can try MMJ and actually get medicine instead of margarine. Disingenuous hack.
@BrianDaniel1972@Mason37613833 Arbitrary and capricious. Regulatory Capture. RICO. How come NO ONE sued the government when the DEA and USDA burned hundreds of thousands of acres of legal hemp over the last six years?
How much longer do you want to play this losing game, Brian?

Fresh bread for the Gluten Eater. Portioned my meal out and added fettuccine to the crock to round out a light dinner.

@BrianDaniel1972@Mason37613833 If the MSOs hated it so much, why were some of them HRT board members? You’re going to have to lie better than this, Brian. The natives are getting restless.
Nine out of twelve.
Twelve veterans with severe, treatment-resistant PTSD. Two psilocybin sessions. One month later, nine of them no longer met the criteria for PTSD. I'm just a political science major from South Jersey, but "treatment resistant" to me sounds like the end of the road.
Small, open-label study out of Ohio State. The researchers are the first to say it needs larger trials, and they're right.
Those twelve aren't abstractions to me.
Over five years I've sat with hundreds of veterans, first responders, and family members. Walked alongside. Held space. Laughed, cried. Rejoiced.
What those twelve men are describing is not new to me. I've heard it hundreds of times, from people already told there was nothing left to try.
While this published sample is small, the community I've been standing in for five years is not.
I don't need a trial to tell me it's possible. I lived it.
May 2021 I flew to Mexico because I'd run out of options and I was running out of reasons. Five years later I stood in the Oval Office watching an executive order signed on ibogaine and psychedelic research.
When I founded No Fallen Heroes Foundation, I framed the work in language Americans would accept — medicine, treatment, outcomes. That was honest. It wasn't complete.
Because in that room in Mexico I stopped being a patient. What I encountered was not a drug. It was a sacrament.
That's why Sacred Warrior Fellowship exists.
Two organizations. Two lanes. Deliberately separate.
No Fallen Heroes Foundation works in the open — outreach, peer support, family support, connection to care. No faith requirement. Nobody turned away.
@NoFallenHeroes holds the sacred ground. The ceremony. The part that was never going to be a clinical protocol.
Science is catching up to what a lot of us already know and other cultures have known for millennia. Good. Keep the trials coming and the data honest.
But don't lose what's underneath it. Veterans aren't broken — they just need to be reminded of who they truly are. God does not make imperfect things.
What happened to me isn't repair. It's restoration.
Fight's On!

This is negligent @rivers_kim
MMJ advocates did NOT risk life and limb over 90 years for some entitled, greedy yuppies to destroy our industries reputation and small communities environments.
Get it together already. @epaleezeldin call me. Let’s figure out what’s happening.
