"Till welcome back. You're with America in the morning. I'm John Trout. States were expecting a windfall and so were those in the cultivation business, but it's been a slow start to New York's legal marijuana market and oftentimes leaving farmers holding the bag. Correspondent Julie Walker explains. New York's fledgling cannabis market doesn't have enough licensed retailers to sell 300 the 300 ,000 pounds of pot grown by farmers in the state. Farmers can only legally sell their product in a dozen licensed dispensaries statewide, and they're feeling a financial pinch as another growing season gets underway. Pot growers in western states have also complained. Low prices, tough competition from the black market, high state taxes and federal banking and exporting restrictions have made it tough for legal growers to make money. But the farmers plight here in New York is directly tied to the bumpy launch of the state's recreational pot market. Julie Walker, New York.

"At 7 45 p.m., Eastern Time. You're not going to want to miss what they will do if they hit 100,000 subscribers during the stream. So there are many things that the media should be paying attention to. Obviously, there is a kidnap journalist and they don't seem to care enough about to actually ask questions with the Biden administration. But they also will ask no difficult questions of the Biden administration on subjects like the transit of the children. So the Department of Justice, the federal DoJ, is now directly challenging a Tennessee law that bans the hormonal sterilization and surgical mutilation of minors. This is what your federally elected federally funded Department of Justice does. This is what they now do. They've put out a press release, calling this, quote, critical medically necessary care for transgender youth. They say the Justice Department today filed a complaint challenging Tennessee Senate Bill one. A recently enacted law that denies necessary medical care to youth based solely on who they are. No, actually, it bans it to everyone. No matter who you are, if you are a boy, we're not going to shoot you full of estrogen and stunt your growth and we are not going to then chop off your penis. It doesn't matter how you identify. Actually, that's what it means. The complaint alleges that SB one's ban on providing certain medically necessary care to transgender minor violates the Fourteenth Amendment's equal protection clause, except for, again, this is a surgery and hormone treatment regimen. That is not really medical, not only is it not really medically necessary, it's medically damaging, very obviously. There is no evidence to suggest none. Any correlation between so called trans affirming care and reduction in suicidal ideation rates. But it doesn't matter. They're going to push this crap anyway. The department is asking the court to issue an immediate order to prevent the law from going into effect July 1st, a 2023. SP one makes it unlawful to provide or offer to provide certain types of medical care for transgender minors, with diagnosed gender dysphoria. Again, the fact that we are now treating a mental condition as though it is, in fact, not a mental condition, it is in fact a status. Being transgender is like being black, is absurd. It's ridiculous. Everyone's blanket band. I mean, 80%, 80% of kids who suffer from gender dysphoria will grow out of it completely, many of them will just become gay. And when was the last time somebody grew out of being a black person? What are you even talking about? But the likening of this to a civil rights action is amazing. As everyone's blanket band, potential treatment options that have been recommended by major medical associations for consideration, then they quote W bath, which is a propaganda group that is completely disconnected from actual medicine or decency. Assistant attorney general Kristen Clarke of the Justice Department civil rights division says, quote, no person should be denied access to necessary medical care just because of their transgender status. So basically, you're now telling, honestly, I don't see the limiting principle here. So if you say that you are a drug, you're a drug addict. But your drug addiction is not a medical issue. Doesn't

Our top local story is a move to give Maryland's attorney general the power to charge and prosecute police officers involved in deaths. Maryland lawmakers approved a bill that gives the state's attorney general the power to prosecute law enforcement after investigating deaths when officers are involved. State senator William Smith junior sponsored the legislation. It also gives the attorney general the ability to accept cases from state's attorneys when they're serious bodily injury. There were some opponents of the bill who believed the attorney general should not be the sole arbiter of whether or not charges should be filed against an officer, but the Maryland House voted 99 to 37 to pass the bill. Governor Wes Moore is expected to sign it. Acacia James WTO P news. Police recruitment is a region wide issue and D.C. is hoping to entice more officers with a bigger hiring bonus.

GOP leader 'pausing' social media after liking naughty LGBTQ posts
"Tennessee's lieutenant governor Randy mcnally is taking a break from social media. Last week, 79 year old Republican Randy mcnally said he had no intention of stopping after revelations that he repeatedly commented on racy post by a 20 year old gay model and other LGBTQ personalities. The lieutenant governor of Tennessee has been accused of hypocrisy and was lampooned on Saturday Night Live this week for among other things, saying his intent was engagement and encouragement when he commented with hearts and fire emojis on a photo of the young man's backside. Mcnally has issued an apology, saying he did not mean to embarrass anyone, and says he's pausing all social media activity to reflect and receive more guidance. Mcnally denies having a record that his anti gay that says he supports traditional marriage and has supported legislation restricting drag shows. Meanwhile, the Tennessee Senate has passed a bill that would base people's legal gender identities on their anatomy at birth and prevent transgender people from changing their driver's licenses and birth certificates to match their chosen gender identity.

"Back to 9 11. Go ahead. You know what I mean? And like folks, we were a target. And then when I love it happened, it wasn't. They called them the, you know. You know, negroes. Now in the same gang now. Playing a simple. Heck, the album with Darren COVID. You don't get the ass handed to them. No, but the difference between us and everybody and everybody else and different, you know, different groups and cultures and all that stuff is like, you know, when they get to this elitist level, it's like they get selected amnesia and how they used to be treated. But his thing though, you know? And if we got the fact that we had her back playing something history. Yep. Exclusionary act, the Japanese internment camps who had her backs. We did black people. Look it up, people is your friend. Listen, I'm not telling my ass. It's fact. And this is why, you know, this may seem ruthless. What? But I'm okay not having other cultures is bad, bro 'cause at the end of the day, when we do it, and then they forget, like we didn't do it, or they try to treat us like all the, like, how, you know, how the white people have treated us, which have been treating us historically. Why should we continue to do this? But the problem is what happened right now. The situation right now with the Asian black people was created by white people that happened in the first place. It was hard because we have immigrants who are pretty much ignorant to the realities of this country, coming in and getting the loans all that stuff and businesses in our communities and we allowed them in there without knowing the history of what happened in this country are two groups. Did I feel the way you don't feel? Period. And we got to correct that. Not only us, but the second generation Asians, Asian Americans who are the kids. And relatives of these Asians that come to this country, they had to do better job and tell them what it is because you're putting their purpose in paying us against each other. Am I lying? You know, you're not lying but they impressed do that though. Instead, they're not pressed to do that. We'll see if we see it every day. That was on Instagram a few days ago, who appears broke it down in two parts. The wife who refused to let those Asians open their business and their communities refused outright ban them. But then they worked at no problem, giving businesses to in black neighborhoods. And the problem with that is the money doesn't stay in the neighborhood. It goes back to their neighborhood. So Asians and all that stuff. So they're pretty much property off of us with no benefits to us at all. And. Resentment from us to them and hence what happened in the LA riots. What happened? When I looked like I got shot in the head by that agent by the Korean sword Clark. It was a setup. It's all I set up. Period. I didn't know what they're doing but my thing is just like, I don't see the church Floyd. Yeah. That's so feel so bad. I want to Curt over on punk ass, supposedly fake $20 bill, I should have done something. He said, his own words said, I should have done something. It's my life that he got killed. And then another Asian on top of that was right there in the scene to nothing to help turn Floyd. It wasn't getting snuffed out on life. Agent police officer. Why are wrong? Another one, like another guy. One story about his Asian old Asian dude was killed and it was an old nursing home. He was an owner and facility and he was a part of these cops where they'll speak Hmong and the guy is a little better. And this guy pretty much was being parked by four different cups at the same time all different bubbling butter knife and what it did. So, you know, you have four cups deep. With the black man in the yard. No, no, no, no, that's an Asian dude. Doesn't know what happened with a black man in like Yonkers in Westchester that he got killed. Some simulate that. If you can't handle, as a young man, a young cop. Can I handle a 6 9 year old man? 'cause he barricaded himself in the door and they wouldn't do well in this check. That part didn't that part in that other story. And the story, this one was. But if you are looking up at the store and you can maintain the constituent controller situation, it takes a year old man. Rex on immediately. I'll tell you feel about these cops. Everybody who's law for listening right now re sign immediately you are a danger to the community. You can bare minimum and try to preserve the life of an old man who is not a threat to you at all. Listen, I've been a strong advocate with saying that it should be a lot harder to be a cop. That's another country. It should not be, it should not be a two month or however long to take. Just be two to four years. Easy. Easy. That's what is in Europe. Easy. And I'm training on top of that. You're enforcing your unforeseen the laws and you're dealing with civilians. This should not be something that you should not have this figured out in 18 years. There's no way. There's no way. You're talking about like, you know, well, I think what's in a less than that? Those 18 months with probation, right? Yeah. Damn. Um, bro it's ridiculous. It's a joke. I'm sorry guys making getting mad to strip it away from the whole story of Tennessee. But here's the story according to NPR. The anti Drake bell sweeping the U.S. are straight from history's playbook. So pretty much the bill passed last week, restricts adult campaign performances in public or in presence of children and bans them from occurring within a thousand feet of schools, public parks or places of worship. Yep. This was passed alongside a separate station that bans transgender miners in Tennessee for gender affirming care like puberty blockers, hormones and surgery. Yep. As of a month ago, at least 9 GOP led state legislators are pushing some of my anti dry bills. Those found violating the anti dread law of face, misdemeanors, and the first instance partial up to the final to $1200 and are up to a year in jail. Those found for subsequent violations face a belly charges, pleasurable by up to 6 years in jail. Now, the thing that has what would you say, right? You know, how vague that is. Keep going. By laws restricting gender expression and public and private have been around the U.S. for more than a hundred years, and one in New York only just being repealed in 2021. By the Tennessee Bill is constitutionally vague, there's little clarity about what false under the jurisdiction of the band make your business owners performers and others uncertain of what could come next. Others say if the laws will be used to target a queer tennesseans everywhere, it's this subtle subtle and sinister way to further criminalize just being trans. ACLU of Tennessee Henry told NPR earlier this month. So Tennessee's Senate majority leader Jack Johnson to drop throughout the state's drag show Bill. That's why NPR just as current while prohibits strip clubs from admitting children. This legislation should also prohibit sexually suggested strike shows from being performed a public property or on any non age restricted private property where a minor can be present. There you go. Look how big that sounds. So let's say I'm in a bar. A kid walks at the door. I'm doing my show. No, I might not be nothing sexual. I might be distressed in I might be singing good morning, U.S. setting the drag outfit. My boobs ain't popping

"Back to the Michael Knowles show. I'm Michael Knowles. So glad to be with all of you because I value your opinions your thoughts because I love democracy. Ilhan Omar claims that The Republicans and conservatives are trying to subvert democracy. I don't think that's true. These terms, things like democracy or very broad terms, So I want to bring it down to Earth for a second, But I will make the broad claim. I think conservatives are much more interested in defending democracy than liberals and leftists and progressives and whatever term you want to use. And I'll give you an example of this than I think frozen into stark relief down in Tennessee. There's a new bill. The Tennessee General Assembly. That is trying to create a legal procedure by which a man Can prohibit a woman from a boarding his child. I love this bill. I think this is a great bill. SB 0494 in Tennessee Senate. And H B 10 79 in the Tennessee House, sponsored by state Senator Mark Cody and state. Rep. Jerry Sexton. Quote, permits a person to petition the court for an injunction to prohibit a woman is pregnant with the person's unborn child from obtaining an abortion. We've been told by the left Men cannot have an opinion about abortion. Squishy Republicans say this two men should not have an opinion. This is a woman's issue. It only involves a woman's body. Of course, that's not true. It involves a baby. That baby, by the way, is not just the product of a woman. It's a product of the love between a man and a woman. Not just the woman's child that she would be killing, but the man's child, too. So I sort of would offer the exact opposite advice that we hear from the left, which is a man should have no opinion about abortion. I think a man that should absolutely be able to prohibit an abortion. If we still have legal abortion, which is unfortunate. At the very least, the father should be able to stop a woman from killing his child. This is very democratic. How is this Democratic? There's no one there is no constitutional right to an abortion if there was invented, fictitious, all fictitious constitutional right from Roe versus Wade. That even honest, liberal jurists will admit is nowhere in the Constitution. When you ask the constitutional scholars who say, Where is it in the Constitution to find that right, Let's say, Well, it's in the emanations in the penumbra is in between an invisible link between lines. 35 36, Okay, I don't really Don't see that in there. Of course, the Constitution doesn't say anything about abortion. The only thing it maybe could say about abortion, actually, is the 14th amendment, which would prohibit abortion right if by protecting people equal equal protection. But Question broadly has been left up to democratic processes. You persuade your fellow citizens, Okay? We should have abortion, legal abortion, or we should not have legal abortion or we should permit this kind of abortion. Okay, well, that's what's going on in the Tennessee Legislature right now. Certainly would be is democratic. To allow a man to have a say over the future of his child. In addition to the woman, adding, that say would would be an increase in democracy, would it not Or you have the alternative, which is some road lawyer on a court invents a right and takes away your political freedom to make a law. No, I hope conservatives kept behind this bill. One because it's pro democracy or whatever. I just want to show that Ilan Amar is a hypocrite. But also because this is this is offering some real substance here. Oh, you're pro life. Okay, good. Then prove it. Put up or shut up. I think most of the pro life activists would probably probably all pro life activists would support it. I want Republicans even who are moderate on this issue. I want them to get behind this. There is no reason whatsoever that this bill should not pass in Tennessee. And as the states or laboratories of democracy, no reason why they shouldn't be tried out elsewhere in the country. We need to stop playing on the terms of the left. We need to stop allowing them to say, Well, it's a woman's issue. Well, it's kind of touchy. Well, I don't know It's a third rail. I don't want to touch it. Touch it head on. If we're not willing to say that. You shouldn't kill Children. And if we do have a system where you can kill Children, at least the dad should be able to stop it. If we're not willing to say that we're not willing to say anything. And the left there. They've already won. Then we should just roll over. You know, they're promising to persecute conservatives right now. Not just trumpet. All of us promise. I mean, they congressmen are saying this out loud. Media figures was saying this out loud. If we're not willing to stand up for ourselves, then let's get it. Let's have it be done with, you know, a lot of people consider this a religious issue. And you know, it doesn't necessarily need to be argued in religious terms You just say like, Hey, look, there's a there's a baby in there. Babies obviously alive. The baby's obviously human and therefore this racist bioethical questions and you should support Keeping that baby alive and you should oppose plans to murder it. But All of these things were argued in religious terms is Cardinal Manning, a famously said all human conflict ultimately is theological. When we're arguing about? I don't know. Taxes, even worrying about immigration. We're arguing about any political issue. We are proposing. Ethical and moral considerations. If we're talking about parking ticket regimes were discussing ethics and morality, which has cultural A cultural basis and ultimately religious basis. That's where it comes from. So Thankfully, some of our religious leaders are starting to take this seriously. You know that Joe Biden is a devout Catholic. I'm sure you've heard this. In the White House. Can't say it enough is a devout Catholic. He's the most radically pro abortion president in American history..
