Marijuana Breathalyzer Technology.

Sates legalize, sell and tax pot. Then states get more revenue from arresting you for driving under the influence. See how it works?

Marijuana Moment: Federal Agency Will Host ‘Open And Candid Discussion’ On Marijuana Breathalyzer Technology.

A federal agency this spring will convene government officials, forensics experts, academics, industry representatives, law enforcement and standards organizations for what it describes as “an open and candid discussion” about “the path forward to realize meaningful cannabis breathalyzer technology and implementation.”

The two-day event, hosted by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), which is part of the U.S. Department of Commerce, is scheduled to be held in Boulder, Colorado, on April 16 and 17.

Unlike with alcohol, there’s currently no widely accepted field test to determine whether someone is under the influence of marijuana.

In 2023, a federally funded report by researchers at NIST and the University of Colorado Boulder concluded that evidence does “not support the idea that detecting THC in breath as a single measurement could reliably indicate recent cannabis use.”

“A lot more research is needed to show that a cannabis breathalyzer can produce useful results,” Kavita Jeerage, a NIST materials research engineer and co-author of the report, said at the time. “A breathalyzer test can have a huge impact on a person’s life, so people should have confidence that the results are accurate.”

More recently, a U.S. Department of Justice researcher cast doubt on whether a person’s THC levels are even a reliable indicator of impairment.

States may need to “get away from that idea,” Frances Scott, a physical scientist at the National Institute of Justice (NIJ) Office of Investigative and Forensic Sciences under DOJ, said on a podcast early last year.

Scott questioned the efficacy of setting “per se” THC limits for driving that some states have enacted, making it so a person can be charged with driving while impaired based on the concentration of cannabis components in their system. Ultimately, there may not be a way to assess impairment from THC like we do for alcohol, she said.

One complication is that “if you have chronic users versus infrequent users, they have very different concentrations correlated to different effects,” Scott said. “So the same effect level, if you will, will be correlated with a very different concentration of THC in the blood of a chronic user versus an infrequent user.”

That issue was also examined in a federally funded study last year that identified two different methods of more accurately testing for recent THC use that accounts for the fact that metabolites of the cannabinoid can stay present in a person’s system for weeks or months after consumption.

[.]
“The consensus is that there is no linear relationship of blood THC to driving,” [a study preprint posted on The Lancet by an eight-author team representing Canada’s Centre for Addiction and Mental Health, Health Canada and Thomas Jefferson University in Philadelphia identified and assessed a dozen peer-reviewed studies concluded]. “This is surprising given that blood THC is used to detect cannabis-impaired driving.”

Most states where cannabis is legal measure THC intoxication by whether or not someone’s blood THC levels are below a certain cutoff. The study’s findings suggest that relying on blood levels alone may not accurately reflect whether someone’s driving is impaired.

“Of the 12 papers included in the present review,” authors wrote, “ten found no correlation between blood THC and any measure of driving, including [standard deviation of lateral position (SDLP)], speed, car following, reaction time, or overall driving performance.
[.]
Evan [sic] as far back as 2015, a U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) concluded that it’s “difficult to establish a relationship between a person’s THC blood or plasma concentration and performance impairing effects,” adding that “it is inadvisable to try and predict effects based on blood THC concentrations alone.”

In a separate report last year, NHTSA said there’s “relatively little research” backing the idea that THC concentration in the blood can be used to determine impairment, again calling into question laws in several states that set “per se” limits for cannabinoid metabolites.

Sprawling 'tent city' appears on Dublin streets.

LBC News: Sprawling 'tent city' appears on Dublin streets as UK and Irish ministers row over return of migrants.

Dozens of tents have appeared in Dublin near the International Protection Office - and the encampment has been labelled a ‘tent city’ buy the Irish Examiner.

Several of their tents have been daubed with messages that read 'we are not subhuman' and 'homes for all'.

The pictures emerged as UK Government ministers today rejected Dublin's demands to take back asylum seekers crossing from Northern Ireland.

Rishi Sunak has said the movement of migrants across the border shows that Downing Street’s Rwanda plan ‘is working’ - and he has said he is "not interested" in any sort of returns deal.

Ron Paul: TikTok Hypocrisy.

New American: TikTok Hypocricy; by Ron Paul.

The TikTok ban was driven by claims that, because ByteDance is a Chinese company, TikTok is controlled by the Chinese government and, thus, is helping the Chinese government collect data on American citizens. However, the only tie ByteDance has to the Chinese government is via a Chinese government controlled company that owns a small amount of stock in a separate ByteDance operation. Furthermore, ByteDance stores its data in an American facility not accessible by the Chinese government.
[.]
The head of the Anti-Defamation League was actually caught on tape complaining about the “TikTok problem.” This use of TikTok made TikTok a target for the many politicians who think the First Amendment makes an exception for speech critical of Israel.

The silver lining in the TikTok ban is it is waking up more Americans, especially young Americans, to the threat the out-of-control welfare-warfare-surveillance state poses to their liberty and prosperity. This provides a great opportunity to spread the ideas of liberty and grow the liberty movement.

The Biden Administration and its handlers are fine with China buying U.S. land, manufacturing our pharmaceuticals, buying their steel and just about everything else you can think of. But it's TikTok that needs to be controlled and regulated?

Hello. Welcome to work. We've CLOSED!

Breitbart: California Workers Arrive at Restaurant to Find It Closed Thanks to Newsom’s $20 Minimum Wage.

Restaurant workers at a Foster’s Freeze location in California arrived at work this week to find they had lost their jobs because it had closed, thanks to a $20 minimum wage signed by Gov. Gavin Newsom (D) that took effect April 1.

How the $20 mandatory minimum wage is working out.

🤣

Business Insider: 5 ways fast-food restaurants in California are cutting costs to cover the new minimum wage.

1. Laying off workers
[.]
2. Cutting hours and hiring less
[.]
3. Dropping staff benefits
[.]
4. Turning to order kiosks

Restaurants are turning to technology and automation to help reduce labor costs.

Sharon Zackfia, a restaurant analyst at William Blair, previously told BI that she expects digital order kiosks — currently a key focus area for some fast-food chains — to spread "even more quickly" in California. Kiosks mean that diners can place orders without having to speak to staff at a counter.

[Michaela] Mendelsohn, the El Pollo Loco franchisee, told CNN that she was introducing order kiosks and was considering bringing in AI-operated drive-thrus.
[.]
5. Spending less on operations
[.]
Alex Johnson, the Auntie Anne's Pretzels and Cinnabon franchisee, told the AP that he wasn't looking at opening any more locations in California. "I have to consider selling and even closing my business," he said. "The profit margin has become too slim."

Why, who could have possibly ever considered there are other ways to circumvent big nanny state government oppressive and onerous over-regulation?

MN Republican Elliot Engen dons Superman costume to save Minneapolis.

Not my Rep but WTF is wrong with MN "Republican" Elliot Engen? 

CBS Via MSN: Rep. Elliott Engen of White Bear Lake is introducing a bill that would essentially override Minneapolis' ordinance and prevent any city or municipality from setting their own rules for rideshare driver pay.

KSTP: Walz urges lawmakers to take up rideshare legislation amid threats from Uber, Lyft.

[...] the Minneapolis City Council passed a new pay rate — meant to be an equivalent to the city’s minimum wage — for rideshare drivers who pick up, drop off or pass through the city. A 10-vote council majority overrode Mayor Jacob Frey’s veto.

While Lyft plans to end service only for trips that start or end in Minneapolis, Uber plans to cut options for the entire metro area, including Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport.
[.]
On Monday, House Assistant Minority Leader Rep. Elliot Engen, R-White Bear Township, filed a bill to try and preempt the Minneapolis City Council’s action.

Why try to preempt what is a city issue? Self-inflicted damage done by democrats and a guy with an R behind his name steps up to try and fix this? This isn't and shouldn't be a state issue, it should remain a city-by-city decision. 

Never underestimate Republican's abilty at fucking up a Silver Platter handed to them by democrats. RINOs and Republicans do this; on local, state and federal levels. They fail to accept The Silver Platter handed to them. EFT!

Minneapolis and MN democrats dig a grave for themselves and MN RINOs leap in wanting to bail them out of a political blunder. Do you think if MN RINOs passed a bill that hurt them politically that MN democrats would step in, trying to help them? Hell No!

When democrats are digging themselves a grave, do NOTHING! Stand down, watch and let them.

I'll never vote for a MN Republican candidate again, ever. Won't be voting dem, but will happily vote for a Third Party candidate.

Maybe, if a time comes and the elected MN State RINOs number only a dozen,  a new Republican brand, one that is Conservative and not UniParty, will form and emerge. 

FBI paying attention to online slang; it "might be Extremism."

The Federal Reserve says WE MUST HAVE CBDC!

Tucker Carlson covered this on his program Friday, November 25.

I couldn't find the full segment, it may appear on his website or You Tube later. But there was this snippet:

The government needs to make sure you're not spending your money on something of which they disapprove.

The U.S. government, along with their global Luciferian overlords, must decrease the standard of living for those who've worked 20, 30, 40, 50 years and redistribute what they've earned to...whom? Their cultists?

This idea is so bad only a Marxist will love it.

We're living in a very bad time and reversing course is getting shorter every day.

Smuckers/JIF Peanut Butter Recall due to Salmonella.

FDA: Outbreak Investigation of Salmonella: Peanut Butter.

The FDA, along with CDC and state and local partners, are investigating a multistate outbreak of Salmonella Senftenberg infections linked to certain Jif peanut butter products produced at the J.M. Smucker Company facility in Lexington, Kentucky.

No, Adel, there is a demand for more water and you're unwilling to do what it takes to supply it. If you provide what the public needs, they can't be controlled and manipulated.

Minnesota State Fair Canceled!

The 2020 Minnesota State Fair is canceled due to the China Virus, aka Corona, aka Covid-19.

US World and News Report (Archive): 2020 Minnesota State Fair Canceled Due to COVID-19 Pandemic.

Officials canceled the Minnesota State Fair on Friday after its leader said the COVID-19 pandemic made it impossible for the show to go on.
[.]
“We all love the fair. And that’s exactly why we can’t have a fair this year,“ General Manager Jerry Hammer told the fair's governing board shortly before the unanimous vote.
[.]
Hammer has dubbed [the 2021 state fair as], ”The Great Minnesota Get-Back-Together."

Oooooh Hoooooooo..."The Great Minnesota Get-Back-Together."  That's so clever Jerry. Did you think of that all on your own or did a nice chunk of taxpayer money go to some out of state ad agency to create such a cutesy yet lame-assed hackneyed bromide?

Almost $20 bucks just for an entry ticket. Immediately as you pass through the gate, one of the first things you see is a gigantic DFL (Democrat-Farm-Labor...of which the MN DEM party is none of those) booth.

All the vendors selling disgustingly overpriced deep-fried shit-on-a-stick and the rides and sideshows will just have to make due with a little less avarice this year. Ahhhhh, Dat's. So. Sad. Join the rest of the world who are making due with much less because of the CHINA virus.

The fair is nothing but a huge moneymaker for the Minnesota DEM party and their sycophantic remoras. I could not be happier knowing these DEM organizations won't be receiving their cut of the revenue. They make the Mafia look like rank amateurs.

The fair is canceled. Good. Fuck 'em.

Michigan Sheriffs won't be writing tickets, enforcing Whitmer's orders.

Detroit Free Press: Genesee County sheriff: 'Don't expect us' to write tickets enforcing Whitmer's order.

Genesee County Sheriff Chris Swanson implied he would not strictly enforce Gov. Gretchen Whitmer's stay-at-home order.

Swanson spoke with Detroit radio personality Charlie LeDuff on "No BS News Hour" on Friday about the statewide stay-home order. When LeDuff asked Swanson if he would enforce the orders, Swanson said the sheriff's job is to enforce the laws "with discretion."

"We have not raided a business, we have not shut a business down," Swanson said. "We are not pulling people over, we are not writing tickets, and don't expect us to do it."

LeDuff raised the issue in regard to Karl Manke, the Owosso barber who defied the orders and opened his barber shop before the Michigan Department of Licensing and Regulatory Affairs suspended his barbers license. 
[.]
Sheriff Brian Begole said his department will not enforce the governor's orders.

"I have decided, within my authority, that our office cannot and will not divert our primary resources and efforts towards enforcement of the Gov. Whitmer's executive orders,” Begole said in a letter.

Several other Michigan sheriffs announced they will not enforce the orders, including Livingston County Sheriff Mike Murphy.
[.]
Swanson, a registered Democrat, is up for election as Genesee County Sheriff this November.

Good! Hat Tip to these Sheriffs and others like them. Well done!
