Pelosi: Cannabis Is Related to COVID – It ‘Is a Therapy That Has Proven Successful’

31 Jul 2020 ~~ By Ian Hanchett
During a press conference on Friday, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) defended including cannabis in the House’s coronavirus legislation and argued cannabis “is a therapy that has proven successful” and is related to coronavirus.
Pelosi was asked, “Republicans and the administration got a lot of heat when they released their bill. Because there was a lot of unrelated things in there, including money for the FBI building, money for defense to replenish the wall. There’s some things in your bill that’s not directly related to COVID, like they’re talking about cannabis or the SALT reduction. Are those things that you’re willing to also strip out of the bill?”
Pelosi responded, “Well, I don’t agree with you that cannabis is not related to this. This is a therapy that has proven successful, and it is by no means of the caliber of money or misrepresentation that remodeling the federal building is for over a billion dollars so that another hotel doesn’t come in there and compete with the president’s hotel. That’s what that’s all about. That has nothing to do with the coronavirus. So, we’re going to have to come to some compromise on the legislation. I just don’t accept that there’s any equivalence in what you put forth there.”

Comment:
Hmmm...., Dr. Pelosi? Prescribes marijuana for covid patients as therapy? When did she become a medical doctor?
Many of of usknow she's an airhead, but now she reveals she's also a pothead....
You have to admit she's one crazy old lady. Trump talks about medicine that works and the Progressive Marxist Socialist/DSA Democrat Leftists go nuts, then Nancy comes along claiming that getting stoned is the therapy we need to fight the Chinese Wuhan Virus.
Indeed, the Congressional leader of the Democratic Party now recommends people suffering from a respiratory disease, inhale unfiltered, and carcinogenic smoke of Cannabis into the lungs as a remedy!!! And Trump is the dangerous one?
 
I’d bet the mortgage that a lot of the increase in Covid illness among blacks is due to incessant pot-smoking-ravaged lungs.
It is more related to health and econ activity than Trump's FBI building. I understand taht as a Trumpanzeee your abilty to grasp sarcasm and irony is .... nill. But I thought explaining it to you would be polite

You’re another brainwashed democrat.
The health part is accurate. It’s a self-segregating racist culture thing. Obese women and pot smoking men.
But you’re way wrong about the economic thing.
I live in a black county with disproportionate COVID infection and death and the median income is 33% higher than the national average.

Now we know why she keeps a freezer full of ice cream.

Trump's FBI building? You mean the courthouse in Portland?
 
If something is a natural disinfectant, an anti-inflammitory, and a bronchodialator, it's safe to say that is an effective treatment against respiratory disease

as it has been used for thousands of years

duh

What? I'm a big proponent of legalization, but this kind of corruption is what makes Congress such a steaming pile of shit.

Pray for gridlock.

Heroin has been used for thousands of years, numbskull. Not all that safe I would say.

Don't give up your job as a respiratory therapist.

Marijuana is a useful therapy for a lot of things, but had not heard it useful as a therapy for Covid, not sure she meant it that way, but what ever.
Another thing is the wording of "money for defense to replenish the wall.". Does that mean there is money to repair or replace sections of the wall or did they put back the money trump stole from the military to build the wall? I am all for replacing the stolen funds, but not if trump is just going to sign the legislation with the money for the military and pillage it again before the election or between election and leaving office in January for that matter. It was better in the old days when the constitution said congress had the per strings and we jailed people who misdirected funds. I am not up for a revolving slush fund to be restocked, but reassigned at whim, without congressional approval.

And what do you do when Congress refuses to supply funds to enhance national security, purely as a partisan finger in the eye?
As president Trump is well within his authority to use excess military funds when partisan jackasses like Charles Schumer block emergency funding. Or do you think the poor Pentagon will be out on street corners with a five star hat begging for money to get by?

Or perhaps you are an open borders advocate? In any event Trump was legally entitled to put excess funds already allotted to good use. Sorry if that chafes your ass.

Or do you not follow the news? Supreme Court sides with Trump on building border wall with diverted military funds

Doc, not sure that made you unhappy. Was it the questioning whether she was was actually saying marijuana was a covid therapy or the fact that, while knowing the money taken by trump for the wall absolutely without a doubt had to be replaced, but I was not in favor it it went back in, only to be plundered again before he leave office. The constitution is pretty clear on how money is to be appropriated. I haven't heard a push for a constitutional convention to change that, so apparently political leaders on both sides are not wanting to go there.
