A federal ban on marijuana and several state laws make selling and transporting weed across state lines illegal. Here’s the road map for changing that.

Road to Nowhere: Because of cannabis prohibition, companies can only do business in one state at a timef Jonathan Elfand is good at anything, it’s shipping weed across borders. In the 1990s, he smuggled cannabis from Mexico by sealing it inside empty salsa cans and packing them on a truck headed to San Diego. The cannabis, totaling a few tons over seven years before the feds caught him, made its way to Florida, New Jersey and New York.

While cannabis is banned at the federal level, recreational use is now legal in 19 states, with five more on the ballot this November. But every state that has legalized weed has also passed laws banning interstate commerce, meaning every cannabis market is restricted to the state. What that means on an operational level is that cannabis companies can only sell products in the state in which the cannabis is grown, even if that company has a facility in another state where cannabis is legal.

Media Industry Admits Defeat: No Chance of JCPA This CongressThe Radio & Television Business Report, a media trade journal, has admitted defeat on the Journalism Competition and Preservation Act (JCPA), conceding that the gravy train for the corporate establishment media will not be passed in this congress. I hear Disney is selling ESPN and NBC. Maybe my president will buy them . Journalism getting paid to “NOT” to Journal, Who would have ever thought the day would come. It’s ok, The People will do it it without Media!!!! It's hard to imagine the media getting more biased. Bill Gates gives millions to online newspapers and they know exactly what to cover and what to cover up. If the government funded them instead it would be the same deal, since the oligarchs and govt are aligned.

How crypto could be good for CBDC and vice versa: Industry exec explainsCBDCs and regulated cryptocurrencies could potentially complement each other in the future as the two types of digital currencies have their own benefits, INX deputy CEO said. Complement each other? USDC will just become CBDC and that's it. USDC has never been a crypto. “In my vision, the CBDC ecosystem will not be different, but we have a long journey ahead of us till we get there,” INX deputy CEO said, adding that balance between CBDCs and crypto would be a “master art.” Yeah, there is an analogue of CBDC in crypto - it's USDC, but I do not understand why Circle claims to support DeFi, if they are, in fact, run by the state

FDA Gains New Power to Oversee Cosmetics IndustryThe Food and Drug Administration is gaining more power to regulate cosmetics, ensure fast-tracked drugs work and oversee infant formula supplies So, a Federal bureaucracy proven to be inept at providing oversight in approval of dangerous pharmaceuticals is given more power to control another industry. This should turn out well. Oh wow… so look for more problems and gaslighting from FDA… maybe stop taking money from those they regulate?
