Attorney General Jeff Sessions made a cataclysmic mistake by rescinding Obama-era federal marijuana policies, according to Roger Stone, President Trumps former campaign adviser.
Mr. Stone, 65, formed a bipartisan, pro-marijuana lobbying group earlier this year, the United States Cannabis Coalition, dedicated to influencing federal level decision makers, including the president, so they honor states rights and state mandated marijuana laws as well as reform our antiquated and failed federal drug laws, according to its website.
Mr. Stone, the presidents campaign adviser through August 2015, criticized the attorney generals recent decision to roll back marijuana protections during a luncheon Friday at the Tiger Bay Club of Central Florida, the Orlando Sentinel reported afterwards.
The Department of Justice has outlawed marijuana for decades, but the Obama administration put in place policies that allowed dozens of states to legalize the plant without prompting federal interference. Mr. Sessions nullified those policies on Thursday, however, casting uncertainty over the future of existing medical and recreational marijuana programs already in place across the country.

We may as well cast stones at the stoners because they want nothing more than to be stoned. :)
It is my thought that an arrest and store closing will be the trigger for the defense appealing to SCOTUS
But I have no clue as to what can relly happen
Lots of parroting of Soros talking points on this thread.
As a matter of fact, who, besides the liquor industry and the drug cartels really worry about the legality of weed?
FooFoo Sessions and the L.I.F.E.R. prison industrial complex are a symptom of the same thing.
Hillary in jail yet?
“If there is a LAW against pot, then how could Colorado, or Obama, or any of his people, just, all-of-a-sudden make it LAWFUL?”
That was the work of Soros puppets Obama and Holder.
The hammer needs to drop on the illegal grows that are massively impacting communities and the environment. Dope smoking is most certainly not a “victim less crime”.
Really? I guess you dont understand that we have thousands of crimes on the books that are never enforced.
Not enough profit in weed.
Stone is correct, another huge mistake by Sessions. Sessions is hurting this president.
Please show me where in the constitution the Federal Government is given the authority to ban a plant.
“Marijuana is about #4761 on my Give-a-Crap list.”
Umtil a potheads drives straight at you and your family.
Did Sessions make a deal with El Chapo?
US Controlled Substanes Act.
Good pothead “thinking.”
It is amazing how totalitarian in thought many conservatives are.
You couldn’t be more wrong.
I said in the Constitution. Just because the Feds pass some act that doesn’t make it constitutional. Try again.
Yeah...It’s bad enough that we have people in their 70s, 80s and 90s driving around with all kinds of drugs in their systems, and now you can add marijuana to the list of things you’ll find in the bloodstreams of the elderly in America.
Sessions is putting it back where it belongs - the Congress can either change the laws or accept that laws have consequences - they cannot blithely allow them to stand and be ignored for political convenience.
