Those days are gone and probably never existed.
I see you have some money there.
Give it to me, in the name of the law!
Cash is a crime.
Loose lips sink ships.
Federal Bureau of Infamy.
Heh. Not exactly what I was thinking, but yeah.
(Road trip?)
Hey Dumbgrunt-we’re the dumb grunts. We’re paying for it.
It’s like Dick Army. Barney Frank’s in it.
Actually, this is false. Medical marijuana is illegal under federal law in all 50 states (57 states according to Obama). The feds just don't enforce it unless they want to.
“Cash is a crime.”
Indeed. It does seem that the police have made a lie of the words:
“This note is legal tender for all debts public and private”
Loose lips sink ships.

Sez so in red letters, right on the page.
My now retired LEO brother said long ago that most criminals couldn’t commit a perfect crime without bragging about it. Hence, discovered.
This woman was too honest by half. Should have said nothing. Or said “headed to Walmart”.
Also, Crossing state lines MADE it federal.
The feds just don’t enforce it unless they want to.

No better way to terrorize a populace than selective enforcement of laws.
Only if they were crossing those lines with product. Cash is still legal to transport between states.
The F.B.I.: With Efrem Zimbalist Jr...
Those days are gone and probably never existed.
All of the fiction crappola on TeeVee showing what great, dedicated folks these Feds are, are there to support the narrative.
Extremely foolish to admit more than name, rank, and serial number.
“Cash is still legal to transport between states.”
Crossing state lines with pot cash has a “substantial effect” on pot commerce, donchaknow.
—”All of the fiction crappola on TeeVee... “
But, but this one was about the great and glorious FBI!
The best-dressed law enforcement west of the Pecos!
Some episodes ended with a “most wanted” segment hosted by Zimbalist, noting the FBI’s most wanted criminals of the day, decades before the Fox Network aired America’s Most Wanted. The most famous instance was in the April 21, 1968, episode, when Zimbalist asked for information about fugitive James Earl Ray, who was being hunted for the assassination of Martin Luther King Jr.
Every detail of every episode of the series was carefully vetted by F.B.I. second-in-command Clyde Tolson.[3] Actors playing F.B.I. agents, and other participants, were given background checks to guarantee that no “criminals, subversives, or Communists” were associated with the show.[4] The premiere episode of the first season, “The Monster,” about a handsome serial killer who strangled women with their own hair, so shocked Tolson that he recommended the show be cancelled.[5] J. Edgar Hoover attempted to cancel the show on at least seven other occasions.[6] Upon Tolson’s direction, the violence in the show was severely curtailed in the final three seasons.[7]

...and people wonder why there is limited outrage when cops are killed in cold blood.
“The feds just don’t enforce it unless they want to.”
There actually is a process for the movement of funds that could be considered illegally held. Anti-money laundering (AML) refers to the laws, regulations, and procedures intended to prevent criminals from disguising illegally obtained funds as legitimate income. AML checks should be conducted by any company where there is potential for employees and/or customers to pass finances or assets off as legitimate transactions.
Firms must comply with the Bank Secrecy Act and its implementing regulations (”AML rules”). The purpose of the AML rules is to help detect and report suspicious activity including the predicate offenses to money laundering and terrorist financing, such as securities fraud and market manipulation. A good overview is this:

If they had followed the law, they wouldn’t have had a problem. This situation has very little to do with what the money was from and which states allow the use of MJ. It is a federal requirement for the control and transport of funds that could be considered gained by or for criminal intent.
