President Joe Biden's significant role in shaping the War on Drugs during the 1980s and 1990s has left a lasting impact on his legacy, particularly regarding cannabis policy. As the author of numerous pivotal federal crime bills, Biden has admitted that his stance on drug criminalization has contributed to the very issues he has sought to address. Despite his tenure as president, his efforts to rectify the intergenerational harm caused by these policies have fallen short, leaving many communities still grappling with the consequences. His promises for reform remain unfulfilled.

Kamala will not do anything with it either.

On September 4, 2024, the 4th Circuit Court of Appeals issued a groundbreaking ruling, declaring that THC-O acetate, commonly known as “THC-O,” meets the legal definition of “h**p” under the 2018 Farm Bill and is not a controlled substance, contrary to the DEA’s stance.

The court criticized the DEA’s position, stating that synthetic cannabinoids, unlike h**p-derived cannabinoids, are manufactured entirely from synthetic materials. The court rejected the DEA’s interim final rule and letter, which claimed THC-O was illegal, finding the DEA’s interpretation unpersuasive.
The court further criticized the DEA’s February 2023 clarification that THC-O is a Schedule I controlled substance because it does not naturally occur in the cannabis plant and can only be obtained synthetically. The court sided with the Ninth Circuit’s interpretation of the 2018 Farm Bill, which found delta-8 THC lawful, and stated that the DEA’s interpretation lacked the power to persuade.

This ruling also referenced the recent Supreme Court case, Loper Bright, which overruled the Chevron Doctrine, emphasizing that courts do not need to defer to federal agencies’ interpretations of ambiguous statutes. The court made it clear that the DEA’s positions on h**p would not receive special treatment and that the most reasonable interpretation of the Farm Bill would prevail, following the plain and unambiguous language of the law.

This case arose from a wrongful termination lawsuit filed by a North Carolina woman who was fired after testing positive for ma*****na, despite using legal h**p products, including THC-O. The case also included a dissenting opinion by Judge Richardson, who questioned whether THC-O meets the definition of a legal h**p derivative since it does not naturally occur in the plant.

Drug Sniffing Dogs Typically False Alert 75% in a 10 year study. Dogs are reward driven so if there is nothing in there, they want their treat. The Supreme Court here in the USA should update this ruling with the times. Time to retire Fido.

An important read for anyone delving into THCA Isolate. It’s derived from h**p and is in its purest form. Thanks to the 2018 Farm Bill, this is legal in the USA as it doesn’t convert to pure THC unless heated at a 315° minimum. Baking and regular oral intake is just as great due to the plant benefits alone. Take a gander.
