The Constitution grants the federal government no authority whatsoever over intrastate drug matters.

The Constitution grants the legislature the power to make laws that do rule over these issues, you seem to leave that part out.

No, it doesn't - Article I Section 8 enumerates exactly what issues are within the legislature's authority, and intrastate drug matters are absent from that enumeration.

“The Constitution grants the legislature the power to make laws that do rule over these issues...”

What section of the Constitution is that?
