Garland and Bondi could have executed this rescheduling at any time in the last 3.5 years through CSA 811(d) which always applied. Was the HHS review and administrative hearing just for show and slow-walking?

Mace is also quoted “Whatever they decide, whether it’s 30 or 60 days from now — we are hearing they want to do it before the end of year"
The text of 811(d) precludes the medical/scientific/abuse eval, so in theory, the treaty analysis could allow for a very quick decision
The AG is bifurcating marijuana into FDA-approve/state-medical (covered by today's order) and "bulk" (remaining as Schedule I pending the continuation of proceedings for its own rescheduling)
@CannaVestments@WeedStreet420 The clip presents an argument for "cost savings for the US" as part of medical reasons for seniors (who might be least supportive of reform within the GOP base) to be open minded about hemp-derived CBD. IMO if the trial balloon was for non-hemp mj it would have been clear
@kelkun@WeedStreet420 "Longs with capital" won't play in this space as long as a single ETF manager determines the price action in irrational ways like bidding up bankrupt companies and selling the strongest performers. Who would want to hang their career on that?
S3 alone doesn't fix that

Trump admin is going to table S3 via administrative action
- He isn't going to take a Biden initiative over the finish line. Has to be his doing + to his credit only
- S3 via admin action hurts the budget by getting rid of 280E. New taxes & regs have to come from Congress

DEA Judge Overseeing Marijuana Rescheduling Retires, Leaving Fate Of Reform To Trump's New Agency Head: "All matters filed in this case will be forwarded to the DEA Administrator, for whatever action, if any, he deems appropriate."

Punting to Congress should be the ideal solution for Trump:
- doesn't give away 280E revenue for nothing (replace with excise tax)
- can provide funding for regulation and law enforcement
- would shift any voter anger away from himself and onto Congress

@Ballsofsteel991@WeedStreet420 He doesn't have the authority to deschedule. That would have to come from Congress. A possible outcome is that canna will be rescheduled to S3 but with enforcement and penalties for any non-S3 activities (i.e. rec or "medical" without DEA registration)
I really like the Newswire Indicator. These are companies who are so busy not making any money, that they spend all their time publishing "news announcements" about all the things their "launching", while they're just frauds on their way to zero. Pay attention. You'll see...
