Lets see, 15,000 new agents for ICE and the Border Patrol to get border illegals; then we are going to need at least 5,000 per legalized pot state state to enforce the laws ard arrest drug illegals. Might need additional in other states to turn the tide of this dangerous noxious weed - reefer madness sound familiar. Then we are going to train and equip that new police force. We will need facilities to process and house all those border illegals and drug illegals. Is this the new jobs program?
Just use the same ice agents Obama used to deport mass amounts. Trump has a ways to go to get on his level.
Jeff Sessions is showing his true colors. He is reversing direction Sally Yates made on Private Prisons. And in the same week Spicer talks about cracking down on marijuana in states that legalized. Hmmmm, I bet if you start to peel back the onion you will find Jefferson Davis Sessions has some nice campaign contributions from Private Prisons.
If these guys start going after marijuana they will regret it. It will be a waste of time and resources for no reason. The Obama administration let the pot legalization train leave the station and you can't call it back. It's a business now with great potential as a tax resource for all levels of government. Politicians can always find rationalizations to justify anything that can add to their coffers. Fighting it now is just sticking fingers in the holes of a soon to crumble damn.
What a dumb hill to die on. One of the bedrock beliefs of Republicans is supposed to be states rights and limited government. May as well raid legal casinos and Nevada bunny ranches while you're abusing federal power to stop things you don't like.
They care more about ideaology and the money that the private prisons make. It's been a long standing mission of politicians to ensure that their people make the money, whomever they are in bed with, and to hell with everyone else.
... and don't forget about the alcohol industry,.. they've paid gadzillions to fight legalization of Marijuana.
