There was a moment where it seemed Matt Gaetz would be our next US Attorney General. That passed quickly after it was clear he didn’t have the votes, and now he’s a news anchor on the OAN channel. But one thing that hasn’t changed is his enthusiastic support for legalized marijuana. Recently on an episode […]
There was a time where Eaze was a promise of the future for the marijuana industry. It got in right before California legalized recreational marijuana and was primed to be the frontrunner in that space. And that’s pretty much what happened for a bit, but that big, infinite future that seemed inevitable never really came […]
Starting the tech companies who have donated and appeared at the inauguration, it’s clear people are catching on to what works in order to get Trump’s attention. The key ingredient is flattery. That seems to be the method of a Political Action Committee who have just released an ad that blasts Biden as the “deep-state” […]
A study was just published that analyzed data from over 10,000 other studies in order to make a gigantic meta-analysis that has pretty much shut the door on where we stand with cannabis benefits when it comes to cancer patients. This is 10 times more than the last consensus study that was published in regards […]
As cannabis continues to become more and more legal and attracts bigger businesses, we continue to see just how many ways it can be consumed. At this point most of us have our way of choice, and a report by the CDC is showing that more and more people are choosing an alternative to smoking. […]
Researchers at UBC Okanagan have taken it upon themselves to make a standardized system of cannabis doses. This has been extremely tricky over the years because of the many ways in which people consume marijuana. How can you equate a puff of a spliff with a small little piece of a weed brownie? The Index […]
It’s been a year since Germany legalized marijuana, which was a big deal for the EU. It’s the third country to do so behind Malta and Luxembourg, but by far the biggest. The way they enacted the legalization was a bit strange: instead of being able to buy weed in a store, you had to […]
Although not as breakneck of a speed as the last time around, Trump’s administration is still pretty quickly shuffling around. There’s a new drug czar coming in to control the Office of National Drug Control Policy, and she seems to be a promising choice. Sara Carter’s job will be to create the agenda around drug […]
Earlier this week we threw some cold water on many legalization prospects for this year, but now some updates are coming out of Pennsylvania. We’d be happy to be wrong in this case. Pennsylvania House Speaker, Joanna McClinton, spoke at an event yesterday where she talked about legal marijuana’s ability to raise revenue for the […]
We’ve done a similar story a few months ago, but with the ever changing nature of the administration and the vagueness in which the topic is discussed, it’s worth checking back in on. So does cannabis have any big shot this year? Simple answer seems to be no. Trump doesn’t really like talking about marijuana […]
