By Dr. Laura Williams In this era of political polarization, when Americans seem to agree on absolutely nothing, let me reassure you. We overwhelmingly agree that cannabis should be legal. 1 in 5 Americans have (state) legal access, 1 in 2 have experimented with it, and more than 1…
By Heather Callaghan, Editor An eerie bit of news has graced today’s 4/20 celebrations across America. (“Four twenty” is code for smoking marijuana, making the day 4/20 special in cannabis culture.) On Thursday, the FDA, notorious for approving fatal opioids and other drugs – and attacking plants…
By Michael Maharrey Colorado’s industrial hemp industry continues to grow despite ongoing federal prohibition. The early successes in creating a viable hemp marketplace hinged on the state’s willingness to ignore federal law, along with the actions of farmers and entrepreneurs who have taken advantage of…
By Matt Agorist To make America great again, Donald Trump announced last month that he will be moving forward with his plan to execute people for selling drugs. Without any critical thought or scientific approach, the president completely ignored all the data and instead opted…
By Brandon Turbeville, Natural Blaze After years of denying citizens even the lip service to their basic rights, the Tennessee legislature has moved one small step forward toward making one form of medical marijuana legal. The new bill HB 1749 is no standard bearer for freedom, but…
By Brandon Turbeville, Natural Blaze Ohio candidate for Governor, former Congressman Dennis Kucinich, stopped by the Cleveland School of Cannabis on Wednesday to announce his marijuana policy should he become the Governor of Ohio in 2018.
