@TheDime_8th @BryanFields24 Would the last conservative cannabis policy reformer on Capitol Hill please turn off the lights???😎

Gretchen Gailey on why an industry built by radicals has become terrified of playing offense in DC. Her solution: make politicians afraid of cannabis.

@futurestraders2 Thanks. I’m just wondering if it’s worth being on a government registry for the modest tax savings. I was always opposed to these registrations because it would keep legitimate patients from applying. Especially those with jobs in the federal government.

@donmurphy12a Yes IMO it is. In my state, it cost $100 and is done via zoom call. Takes less than 10 minutes and no charge if they do not issue the card. I have back issues and can't take NSAIDs and this helps along with physical therapy. Good luck Don. I hope it helps you too.

Nothing like back surgery to justify a #medmarijuana card!😎 And since I got some spacers in my spine, I’m taller…(just like @GovRonDeSantis)😆#SAFEBanking @AmericanCCo

@tomangell @SenMullin He did not. We fought with words.

@donmurphy12a @SenMullin Did he ever try to fist fight you, though?

@SenMullin was never a fan of my work, but appreciated my persistence. He never missed an opportunity to tell that to my face. I was never shy about our encounters and he always seemed to enjoy our debates on drug policy. But my favorite was when he yelled at me from his passing Jeep that, “I’m still a NO!” on #SAFEBanking. 😎

Friends don’t let friends run with BAD signs. If you’re working on (or funding) a political campaign, why would you allow your candidate to approve or design (something they shouldn’t be doing anyway) signs that can’t be read at 25 mph? goodsignbadsign.wordpress.com/2018/09/10/goo…

@LordReek714 @repkevinhern SOON is a trigger word.😳

@donmurphy12a @repkevinhern Don… are we getting S3 soon or what ???

Yes Please! @RepKevinHern has a history of supporting #SAFEBanking! thehill.com/homenews/campa…

@johnverville10 Seems like just yesterday.😕

$MSOS Remember 3 years ago when #SAFER banking passed the Senate Banking Committee? Then it fell off a cliff and was never seen again? @donmurphy12a

@MotherGoose1979 All I know is they aren’t the pro-#SAFEBanking members of congress that could/should be appointed.

@donmurphy12a Are these bad for cannabis reform? I don’t know who any of these people are.

…never mind.🤦‍♂️ newson6.com/national-polit…

@justinleiby @tomangell @GOP @TheDemocrats …and blaming Republicans for it.🤦‍♂️

@donmurphy12a @tomangell @GOP @TheDemocrats Evidence that Democrats used SAFE as a "fundraising carrot?" I do recall Corey Booker & Chuck Schumer going out of their way to kill it.

For #cannabis reformers, this is like going from 0 to 60 in one appointment. Both OK House Republicans are OK on #SafeBanking, voting YEA in 2021! thehill.com/homenews/house…

@JimBickerton @HammanShares Thanks for your kind words. FWIW, having a virtual cheering section helped keep me going. Thanks for being there.

@donmurphy12a @HammanShares Miss you, Don, love to see your insightful, knowledgeable, educated, always eloquent observations presented gentlemanly, all traits sorely missing in 99% of the X posts. Your TDR visits were must watch for me, I don’t recall one time where you were either wrong or light years off

@CoryAChapman1 @tomangell 💯 I have made those arguments to elected officials so many times I hear them in my sleep. 😎😴

@tomangell @donmurphy12a It's more than unfortunate, it is hurting the economy. Employees in the industry are blocked from home loans, machinery acquisition is unnecessarily difficult, and facility expansion is throttled. Just saying. #SaveKansas

@tomangell Agreed, but at least the @GOP didn’t dangle #SAFEBanking as a fundraising carrot like @TheDemocrats did. So at least there’s that! 🤷‍♂️

@donmurphy12a It's unfortunate that there's still no such thing as the Safe Banking Act in the 119th Congress. It simply does not exist.

@benlubbon “SEMI-retirement”… Stay tuned.😉

@donmurphy12a 🤔 Makes retirement more attractive. Then there’s the SOTU next Tuesday. Stay warm. ☮️💚🌱🙏🇺🇸❤️‍🩹

To all my friends running for office on both sides of the aisle, let this be your WHY.
