The time to do that really would have been before the election… He did reschedule it, but that can be undone day one. I honestly think the fascist voters would credit Trump. I’ve heard them say “already things are getting better” with no hint of irony.
So your options were re-elect the team who are following the process but started late and put and end to federal prosecutions while he was in office, or re-elect the guy whose last AG was 100% against any reform attempts and actively prosecuted offenders.
But no, go ahead and tell me how Trump was the better option here. This is why the republicans win. Everything on the left is a purity test where we endlessly belittle our politicians for not delivering everything all at once on day one, while the right makes plans that span decades to take power. Look at the Federalist Society. It took them decades to arrange for the moment where they would have decisive control over the judicial branch so they could crime with impunity. But tell me how Biden not completing a five year process in four years was too slow.
Maybe Democrats should have their own Federalist Society then. They’re the ones running the party and if they can’t implement the sort of multi-decade program that it takes to produce real change then maybe they’re shit at their jobs.

My options were Harris and Trump. I voted for Harris.
But no, go ahead and tell me how Trump was the better option here.
He wasn’t.
Criticism of Biden isn’t advocacy for Trump. NEITHER OF THEM IS EVEN RUNNING. THE ELECTION IS OVER. But since centrists can’t defend their constant deliberate uselessness at anything other than arming a genocide, they have to pretend that any and all criticism of Drug War Biden is Trump support.
You don’t have to carry water for him anymore. It’s over.

He did not. Cannabis is still Schedule I.
Damn you’re right, they did start the process, but the DEA pushed it back to 2025 after originally expecting it this year.
The DEA whose head Biden appointed decided to wait until the next president could block it?
I wonder if Biden ran it by Joe Manchin or the senate parliamentarian first.
He started the multi-year process to do it.
When he knew it was too late to finish it during his term. He ran out the clock.

Um… Harris jailed loads of people, and opposed reform efforts too. For weed.

Their jobs are to prevent real change, not implement it. They’re fantastic at their jobs.
