President Joe Biden’s announcement that his administration would pardon federal simple marijuana possession offenses could give Democrats a boost in the midterms, said Atlanta Journal-Constitution Washington Correspondent Tia Mitchell. “It’s going to play very well to Biden’s base and people he doesn’t want to stay home,” Mitchell said.

How many people have committed federal felonies for simple possession? Those are state crimes and President’s have no power to pardon state felonies. Governors do. 😅
Drug cartels endorse this move.
Only good thing he has done for US citizens.
🤡
President Biden,
Did you know or what you need to know is:
Russia can make entire Ukraine totally without electricity, without clean water, without bridges, without rails, without every single infra structure within hours?… Right?… No nukes, only conventional armaments…
Nukes are for some thing else… You know, if you threaten their mother land… Right?
And by now Ukraine still has electricity, clean water, food, infra structure and every thing… Does this tell you something?… DOES THIS TELL YOU THAT IT IS NOT RUSSIA WHO IS THE AGRESSOR?
Looking for votes ?
Hunter and Bidens brother are about to be indicted which will lead to the Big Guy. Democrats are done until at least 28.
He’s making a last ditch effort…he’s not even legalizing it which would completely solve the weed problem. Do not be distracted !
As a pretty conservative guy, I support this decision 110%.
every one is on fire but at least we can smoke weed ? lift the vaccine mandate on health care works
Supreme Court turns away challenge to U.S. vaccine rule for health workers . BIDEN NEED TO LIFT THE vaccine mandate
freedom for all of us
Most people jailed for simple marijuana possesion are not at the federal level….they are at the Local and state level… this is an empty "trick-bag" act

16 Veterans commit suicide every single day; this is long overdue. You people are sick, it's been 20 years…
That's all fine and dandy but it's just a consolation prize in place of a campaign promise. Just like with Student loan debt forgiveness. If I get popped for possession 9 Months from now, it's like nothing has changed I'm still in trouble with the law. If I need to get a Student Loan for my Kid tomorrow, I'm still supposed to pay it off at the highest interest rate in several years. They promise free College, and this is what you get, they promise Legalized Marijuana, and this is what you get. Big Whoop. Luckily, I never believed a word they said anyways.
Democrats identify with criminals. Water is wet. No news here.🥱
Biden couldn't avert WW3 so he gave us pot to chill us out.
Deceptive title bruh. edit the oil/gas price content out and make it just a cannabis segment
Continuing to skirt around the main issue! Just legalize it federally!!!!! End this bull honkery!!!
We gotta get off this oil crap from OPEC, their control is Bogus and they do this all the time depending on which party they favor, so voting in a GOP anybody is not worth it because OPEC owns them.
So now, DEMOCRATS ARE HELPING DOPE HEADS INSTEAD OF THE MIDDLE CLASS!! HOW IS THIS HELP??
This seems like just a way to get votes from people who actually think this will help people. But its nothing new, all politicians go for the low hanging fruit when they're approval ratings are at record lows. The last guy did it, and the next one will do it.
31 trillion deficit and rising. Pardoned minor weed offenses will make no difference when voters go to the booth to get even for inflation and economic failures by this administration.
Well living in Canada our laws are that we allow all are people to use marijuana, their for we don't arrest people for this and we can buy it and it's legal but not through the black market , we can also grow our own plants but we have a limit, this is also working well
A prerequsite to pardoning Hunter, and where's Jackie?
We have plenty of oil as one of the biggest exporters. Even so since oil companies are international with no allegiance to this country the Saudis cutting supply will drive the price up everywhere. This is exactly why we need to cut our reliance on oil.
This Republican is just soo stupid ! We have to start worrying about our world and not just ourselves. People saying that we have oil and gas and aren’t using it are the same ones driving diesel jacked up trucks and blowing black smoke everywhere . We have to start caring about our world and the future of our kids and their children
WELL TBH ITS JUST MARIJUANA MOSTLY USED RECREATIONALLY
ITS KIND OF NASTY BUT SO ARE MOST MIXED DRINKS I DONT CONSUME EITHER
RECREATIONAL USE IS JUST THAT WHY VILIFY IT
Why the two year wait? He could have done this day one.
