For the Culture By The Culture
Idaho clings to prohibition while veterans beg for relief. Kind Idaho fights to decriminalize a plant that heals, while lawmaker Bruce Skaug pushes laws that jail the sick and silence voters. This is not policy, it is punishment. The question is simple: Does Idaho fear weed more than truth?
Politicians are twisting fake “public health” science into moral theater with THC caps that make no sense. The Science of Stupid exposes how Connecticut, Minnesota, and others are rewriting chemistry to fit their fear while researchers say potency limits are nonsense. A sharp, factual takedown of junk science and political hypocrisy in the cannabis age.
Senator Thom Tillis’s call for a federal probe into the Cherokee cannabis program isn’t oversight, it’s theater. The Eastern Band of Cherokee built the South’s first legal adult-use market, clean and compliant, yet a U.S. senator is weaponizing fear and politics to question their sovereignty. We trace the lies, the motives, and the drug-war power play behind it.
Michigan’s new 24% wholesale cannabis tax has ignited outrage across the state. Pitched as a fix for crumbling roads, the law instead cripples small growers and pushes the market back underground. With lawsuits already filed and jobs on the line, the move exposes how easily lawmakers can rewrite voter-approved legalization into a state-sponsored shakedown for profit.
For decades cops used the smell of weed as a free pass to shred the Fourth Amendment. A Florida court just slammed that door shut. The ruling ends one of the drug war’s oldest scams and exposes how the “odor equals crime” myth has humiliated, fined, and jailed millions.
The Netherlands is finally confronting its cannabis hypocrisy. After decades of letting coffee shops sell weed sourced from the black market, the Dutch government is expanding a state-run program that licenses legal growers. The plan could eliminate contamination, crush the illicit trade, and restore integrity to the nation that once sold the world on tolerance but never practiced it.
