Two Ole Miss students are dead, and kratom was reportedly found in both investigations. We don’t yet know the cause, and we shouldn’t get ahead of the facts. But we do know kratom is dangerous. I’ve been warning about its risks for years and young people deserve to know those risks now. washingtonexaminer.com/op-ed…

Grateful to @WSJ for taking a serious look at the marijuana debate. Thanks to @AllysiaFinley @WSJopinion for the thoughtful Weekend Interview with me and the opportunity to discuss where the evidence - and the conversation - is headed. wsj.com/opinion/kevin-sabet-…

Can cannabis affect your ability to tell what really happened from what didn't? A brain imaging study found that abstinent chronic cannabis users were more susceptible to false memories, making them more likely to identify events that never occurred as real. Researchers also found reduced activity in brain regions responsible for memory, attention, and reality monitoring—and greater cannabis use was linked to greater impairment. These findings suggest that cannabis may have lasting effects on memory and cognitive control, even after users are no longer intoxicated.

This is your wake up call: There is nothing normal about needing to ingest a mind-altering substance every day to function in the world. Addiction specialists call that dependence.

Big Cannabis Sold You a Lie. Now the Federal Government Is Giving It to Your Grandparents. Bombshell lawsuits, a European safety bombshell, and a rogue Medicare program converge in the most dangerous moment in American cannabinoid policy history. They said it could treat your anxiety, your pain, your PTSD, your insomnia, your opioid addiction, your cancer, your irritable bowel syndrome, your grief, your boredom, your sadness, and your shyness. They built billion dollar companies on those claims. They hired lobbyists, funded public relations campaigns, and placed their products in gleaming dispensaries designed to look like Apple Stores - all while knowing, according to explosive new federal lawsuits, that the science behind those claims was weak, nonexistent, or flatly contradicted by the research they chose not to tell you about. According to the complaints, these companies marketed cannabis products as medicine capable of treating a staggering list of conditions - insomnia, narcolepsy, cancer, auto-immune disorders, neuropathy, pain, anxiety, PTSD, opioid addiction, and more... #Cannabis newswire.com/news/big-cannab…

100%. These are dangerous synthetic chemicals that should not be available in every convenience store next to the tall boys. Thanks for your leadership on this @electcharles !
THREAD: Texas was ahead of the curve on THC. Last week, the Texas Supreme Court upheld the state’s authority to classify delta-8/10 and other THC analogues as Schedule I controlled substances under Texas law. (1 of 3) #txlege txcourts.gov/media/1462654/2…

Four reasons why @GovernorShapiro is wrong about pushing for recreational use of marijuana: “Marijuana products are today of unprecedented high potency, are often highly processed, aggressively advertised, and often packaged to appeal to minors.”
"The commercialization of marijuana plays a role in the normalization of use, increases access to it, and decreases perception of risk of harm among youth."

My latest @TheAtlantic: I wrote about the U.K.'s "generational" cigarette ban, the failure of "grudging toleration," and the specter of the return of prohibition. theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/0…

Three of America’s largest cannabis companies are facing a class action lawsuit over how they advertise. They are accused of knowingly pushing unsupported claims about pot’s health benefits. The suit alleges the companies are characterizing pot as medicine. @DrMarcSiegel weighs in on his thoughts about cannabis.

Dabs and joints are never going to be medicine. SAM has filed a petition for review to stop the rescheduling of products in state “medical” marijuana programs from Schedule I into Schedule III. Read SAM President @KevinSabet's statement below.
