One thing about Jeff Sessions, the boy is focused.

A horrible marijuana plant must have done something mean to Sessions when he was a child, for the attorney general has a serious black & white TV-era reefer madness obsession.

Sessions is hell-bent on re-fighting the failed war on drugs. Wanna fight drugs? Fine. Fight opioids. What's the natural, God-given alternative to opioids? Cannabis.

Excerpt from linked story: Researchers studying the relationship between medical cannabis laws and opioid use have found that states with such laws have nearly a 25 percent reduction in opioid-related deaths.

I'm glad you still have a job in the Trump circus tent, Mr. Sessions. Yours might be the only still, quiet voice in that chaos. But you don't need to keep fighting the marijuana monsters under your bed.

They're too busy gawking and giggling at your stack of 1960's Playboy magazines to hurt anybody.

Gawk and giggle at some other JD Crowe cartoons:
