Oops! That Didn't Come Out Right

Here we go again: facts screwing up the agenda:

The betting was that law-and-order Attorney General Jeff Sessions would come out against the legalized marijuana industry with guns blazing. But the task force Sessions assembled to find the best legal strategy is giving him no ammunition, according to documents obtained by The Associated Press.

The Task Force on Crime Reduction and Public Safety, a group of prosecutors and federal law enforcement officials, has come up with no new policy recommendations to advance the attorney general’s aggressively anti-marijuana views. The group’s report largely reiterates the current Justice Department policy on marijuana.

I guess it takes longer than six months to turn the Justice Department into a bunch of yes-men.

Via NCRM, which notes:

Senator Cory Booker of New Jersey introduced legislation this week to eliminate marijuana’s status as a Schedule 1 drug, decriminalizing it at the federal level.
