John Boehner’s eyes will be bleary, liquid and reddened for another reason, henceforth: he’s got a job as a marijuana industry spokesman.
I’m joining the board of #AcreageHoldings because my thinking on cannabis has evolved. I’m convinced de-scheduling the drug is needed so we can do research, help our veterans, and reverse the opioid epidemic ravaging our communities.
I’m certainly looking forward to high John Boehner tweets, but let’s not forget that he and his party spent decades using drug policy to marginalize, incarcerate and politically neuter minorities. He’s woke for money, not justice.
