        Much lower considering rescheduling marijuana is a basic government act and not a ridiculously unlikely astronomical event. Also, it would gain Biden a lot of votes.

          And send the theocracy into a rage in another dimension, one in which they wouldn’t be sure why their hair is falling out

      If election theater motivates this policy and makes this happen then I’m all for it. I wonder what our criminal AG in Texas thinks about all this, considering he’s trying to do the opposite in cities with lax marijuana enforcement.

        Even if marijuana was descheduled, it would still be illegal due to Texas state law

        I think most states in which it is illegal would remain illegal. Many states would probably update their laws in response to the DEA descheduling it.

          Many states have laws based on the federal schedule and don’t specifically name any drugs, so there would be some immediate effects.

          Importantly too, they’d have to police it using their own state resources.
