- Letter to Trump Calls for Ending Federal Cannabis Arrests to Save Government Money | Toker's Guide
In a letter to President Donald Trump (R), U.S. Senator Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) and Rep. Melanie Stansbury (D-NM) have called on the administration to end arrests for cannabis, which they say – along with the enactment of other policies – could help the government save trillions of dollars. < Back Letter to Trump Calls for Ending Federal Cannabis Arrests to Save Government Money Jun 17, 2025 Source: TG Branfalt Ganjapreneur Article Link Facebook X (Twitter) WhatsApp LinkedIn Pinterest Copy link In a letter to President Donald Trump (R), U.S. Senator Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) and Rep. Melanie Stansbury (D-NM) have called on the administration to end arrests for cannabis, which they say – along with the enactment of other policies – could help the government save trillions of dollars. The lawmakers note that ending unnecessary federal arrests and reducing waste in federal detention programs alone could save the government billions of dollars. “The government spends billions of dollars each year on unnecessary federal enforcement actions and detention, like costly marijuana arrests despite the fact that almost half of states have legalized recreational marijuana, imprisoning elderly and terminally ill patients who pose little risk to public safety, and incarcerating people for minor technical violations of probation and parole.” — Warren and Stansbury in the letter The letter, which focuses on what the lawmakers describe as the failures of the Elon Musk-led Department of Government Efficiency or DOGE, notes that Warren had included the policy suggestion to Musk in January, but that he and DOGE had “ignored” them. In addition to the criminal justice reforms, Warren and Stansbury call on the Trump Administration to crack down on healthcare profiteering, negotiating better Department of Defense contracts, cutting wasteful spending on education programs, closing federal loopholes in the tax code, and ending so-called “vendor-lock” in government IT contracts. < Previous Next > Recent Reviews Cookies & Alt Sol "Ridgeline Lantz" Strain Review - Takoma Wellness Center Ridgeline Lantz, cultivated by Alt Sol and currently available at Takoma Wellness Center, exudes an impressive pedigree.

- Op-Ed: Launching My Cannabis Brand in West Virginia After Prison Time for Medical Grow | Toker's Guide
The author, Ryan Basore, a former federal prisoner for medical cannabis cultivation, launched Redemption Cannabis and the Redemption Foundation. His cannabis brand is now available in West Virginia, where he was incarcerated. The Redemption Foundation provides expungements and financial support to non-violent cannabis offenders still in prison, partnering with organizations like Mission Green and the Last Prisoner Project. Basore emphasizes that despite widespread legalization, many people remain incarcerated for cannabis offenses, and federal law, which classifies cannabis as a Schedule I drug, needs to change for true justice. He states that 10% of Redemption Cannabis licensing revenue supports incarcerated individuals and their release, highlighting that buying their products contributes to the pursuit of justice. < Back Op-Ed: Launching My Cannabis Brand in West Virginia After Prison Time for Medical Grow Jul 11, 2025 Source: Marijuana Moment Marijuana Moment Article Link Facebook X (Twitter) WhatsApp LinkedIn Pinterest Copy link Ryan Basore, a former federal prisoner who served time for legal medical cultivation in Michigan, has brought his journey full circle by launching Redemption Cannabis in Morgantown, West Virginia—the very town where he was once incarcerated. This isn't just about selling flower; Basore’s mission is centered on restorative justice. Through the Redemption Foundation, he directs 10% of licensing revenue toward supporting non-violent cannabis prisoners, funding thousands of expungements and providing essential commissary funds to those still behind bars. This story hits home for the cannabis community because it highlights the massive gap between corporate profits and social justice. While many are making millions, others are still stuck in cells for the same plant. For regular tokers, supporting brands like this means your purchase goes beyond a great high—it directly helps right the wrongs of the past and supports the pioneers who paved the way. It’s a powerful reminder that true progress in the industry isn’t just about retail access, but about ensuring no one is left behind in the transition to legalization. < Previous Next > Recent Reviews Cookies & Alt Sol "Ridgeline Lantz" Strain Review - Takoma Wellness Center Ridgeline Lantz, cultivated by Alt Sol and currently available at Takoma Wellness Center, exudes an impressive pedigree.

Terpene Profile - Myrcene: The dominant terpene, contributing to the strain's earthy aroma and deeply sedative physical effects. - Caryophyllene: Provides a spicy, peppery kick and may offer anti-inflammatory benefits. - Pinene: Adds a touch of fresh pine to the scent profile and helps balance the heavy sedation with slight mental clarity.Effects Mazari is known for a powerful, fast-acting high.

Seed Suppliers Authentic Mazari seeds are primarily available through Seedsman, though they can also be found through various international seed banks that carry Seedsman’s genetic catalog.

Its impressive resin production and reliable yields make it a favorite for both hobbyist growers and extraction enthusiasts seeking a classic indica experience. Previous Next
- New Study Proves Switching to a Dry Herb Vape Slashes Inhaled Toxins by Nearly 100% Compared to Rolling Up | Toker's Guide
A study self-published by vape company PAX found that vaporizing cannabis reduces exposure to harmful byproducts by up to 99% compared to smoking joints. The research indicates that combustion, rather than the cannabis itself, is the primary source of toxic chemical exposure. < Back New Study Proves Switching to a Dry Herb Vape Slashes Inhaled Toxins by Nearly 100% Compared to Rolling Up Apr 14, 2026 Source: Tom Angell Marijuana Moment Article Link Facebook X (Twitter) WhatsApp LinkedIn Pinterest Copy link For those of us who appreciate the plant, the ritual of lighting up a joint is a classic experience. However, new data suggests that if you are looking to keep things as clean as possible for your lungs, it might be time to lean into the world of vaporization. A fresh study recently released by the team at PAX highlights a massive difference in what actually enters your body depending on how you choose to consume. The core of the issue isn't the herb itself, but the fire. When you spark a bowl or a pre-roll, that high-heat combustion triggers a chemical reaction called pyrolysis. This process breaks down the plant matter and creates a cocktail of unwanted extras like benzene and formaldehyde. In contrast, vaporizers work by gently heating your flower or oil just enough to release those flavorful terpenes and potent cannabinoids without ever reaching the point of burning. The researchers put this to the test by comparing smoke from standard joints against the aerosol produced by their own dry herb and oil devices. They monitored sixteen different markers of harmful byproducts and the results were eye-opening. Vaporizing effectively slashed the presence of these toxic compounds by up to 99% compared to traditional smoking. It is essentially the same flower and the same high, but with a drastically lower toxic load. For the everyday enthusiast, this is great news. It means we have more control over our health without having to give up the immediate effects of inhalation. If you are curious about making the switch, start by looking for a quality device with adjustable temperature settings. Lower temps are usually better for tasting those delicate citrus or pine notes, while slightly higher settings provide a thicker cloud. Not only is it a smoother experience for your throat, but it’s also a much more efficient way to make your stash last longer since you aren't literally burning off your supply! < Previous Next > Recent Reviews Cookies & Alt Sol "Ridgeline Lantz" Strain Review - Takoma Wellness Center Ridgeline Lantz, cultivated by Alt Sol and currently available at Takoma Wellness Center, exudes an impressive pedigree.

- New Analysis Calls Rescheduling a Transitional Step Needing Banking and Justice Reforms | Toker's Guide
A new academic paper in the journal Cannabis & Cannabinoid Research argues that while rescheduling marijuana to Schedule III is a historic shift that recognizes its medical value and reduces research barriers, it remains a transitional step. The authors emphasize that this move does not legalize marijuana, authorize interstate commerce, or address social equity and criminal justice reforms, all of which require further congressional action. < Back New Analysis Calls Rescheduling a Transitional Step Needing Banking and Justice Reforms Mar 13, 2026 Source: Kyle Jaeger Marijuana Moment Article Link Facebook X (Twitter) WhatsApp LinkedIn Pinterest Copy link A new academic analysis highlights that while moving marijuana to Schedule III is a massive win for science and the industry, it is only a "transitional" step. Researchers from the University of California argue that this long-awaited shift finally recognizes cannabis as medicine, but it does not actually legalize it federally. While it will provide major tax relief for dispensaries by removing the 280E burden and making it easier for scientists to study the plant, it doesn’t automatically fix issues like banking access, interstate commerce, or social equity. This is a huge deal for the community because it signals the end of the "medically useless" stigma that has held back progress for decades. For everyday tokers, this means better-researched products and more stable local businesses, but the fight for full freedom and criminal justice reform still requires Congress to step up. We are moving in the right direction, but treat Schedule III as the starting line for true, comprehensive cannabis reform rather than the finish line. < Previous Next > Recent Reviews Cookies & Alt Sol "Ridgeline Lantz" Strain Review - Takoma Wellness Center Ridgeline Lantz, cultivated by Alt Sol and currently available at Takoma Wellness Center, exudes an impressive pedigree.

- Missouri Reviews Medical Cannabis Purchase Limit Rules | Toker's Guide
Missouri officials are reviewing rules on purchase limits for medical marijuana patients. Cannabis advocacy organizations are concerned about guidance from state regulators limiting how much medical marijuana patients can purchase. Medical patients are limited to a 6-ounce allotment of dried, unprocessed marijuana every 30 days. The state is prohibited by law from tracking the purchases of people who don’t have patient ID cards without their permission. Andrew Mullins, executive director of the Missouri Marijuana Trade Association, sent a letter to leaders of the Division of Cannabis Regulation in April claiming the policy is unconstitutional. Brennan England, Missouri state director for Minorities for Medical Marijuana, believes there needs to be a coordinated effort to repeal the policy. < Back Missouri Reviews Medical Cannabis Purchase Limit Rules Jun 22, 2025 Source: Staff Marijuana Moment Article Link Facebook X (Twitter) WhatsApp LinkedIn Pinterest Copy link Missouri's medical marijuana patients are facing a frustrating bottleneck, and advocates are pushing back hard. Currently, state regulators have decided that if you hold a medical ID card, you’re strictly limited to your 6-ounce monthly allotment and barred from making additional adult-use purchases. This is a head-scratcher because recreational users can buy up to 3 ounces daily without the state tracking their every move. Industry leaders and groups like Minorities for Medical Marijuana are calling the policy unconstitutional, arguing it unfairly punishes the very people who built the foundation for Missouri’s market. For the everyday toker, this matters because it highlights a major gap in how we treat medicine versus recreation. If you’re a patient who relies on specific high-dose regimens, being "locked out" of the consumer side just doesn't make sense. It’s a clear reminder that while legalization is great, we still need to fight for fair access so that being a registered patient remains a benefit, not a burden. Hopefully, this state review leads to more freedom at the checkout counter. < Previous Next > Recent Reviews Cookies & Alt Sol "Ridgeline Lantz" Strain Review - Takoma Wellness Center Ridgeline Lantz, cultivated by Alt Sol and currently available at Takoma Wellness Center, exudes an impressive pedigree.
