    They were also slave owners so should we bring that back also. It was a big economic driver in the beginning of the country 😮

  15. @michaelphillips149 on September 22, 2025 at 4:31 pm

    He’s so wrong. First use of Marijuana in US was in 1910. I hate it when people portray BS as facts



  16. @MiaK-tj2sg on September 22, 2025 at 4:32 pm

    Already am angry 😡



  17. @37HD on September 22, 2025 at 4:33 pm

    Remember the "Marijuana" tax stamp was introduced in 1937 a few years after alcohol prohibition was repealed. Needed agency justification. Terrible



  18. @coolandmellow on September 22, 2025 at 4:33 pm

    So about the Marijuana he is full of crap.Rhc destroys brain cells .
    Mental health: Studies link marijuana use to depression, anxiety, suicide planning, and psychotic episodes. It is not known, however, if marijuana use is the cause of these conditions. Athletic Performance: Research shows that marijuana affects timing, movement, and coordination, which can harm athletic performance



  19. @adamq9270 on September 22, 2025 at 4:34 pm

    Jesse still doesnt admit he was wrong about masking and jabs. So disappointing. Was a big fan…..



  20. @dadmadedinner5456 on September 22, 2025 at 4:35 pm

    Henry J. Anslinger is rotting in hell somewhere.



  21. @seanblaine2827 on September 22, 2025 at 4:37 pm

  22. @thomasmatthews8055 on September 22, 2025 at 4:38 pm

    The body



  23. @aon10003 on September 22, 2025 at 4:40 pm

    If you call restrictions of pot a crime against humanity. You are really living in a protected world.



  24. @brucew8798 on September 22, 2025 at 4:40 pm

    It’s our Government who conspired with rich industrialists that regressed our country 200 years for their greed



  25. @majrcook4086 on September 22, 2025 at 4:42 pm

    Damn I wish Wisconsin had a strong governor like Ventura



  26. @LeoDowney-z7m on September 22, 2025 at 4:43 pm

    As a 44-year-old guy not too far from Chicago growing up here in America I’ve got to say everything that he’s saying is absolutely correct.



  27. @briang2285 on September 22, 2025 at 4:43 pm

    Is that the guy from Jeepers creepers



  28. @jarvissheeler6624 on September 22, 2025 at 4:44 pm

  29. @mattstarr8203 on September 22, 2025 at 4:48 pm

  30. @ThroughtheLookingGlass-yg2fj on September 22, 2025 at 4:49 pm

    Those who fail to learn the lessons of history are doomed to repeat its mistakes.
    Eisenhower tried to warn us generations ago too…



  31. @Bill-cb4bh on September 22, 2025 at 4:49 pm

    Keep loving the freedom and military for protecting the government



  32. @kgraham5820 on September 22, 2025 at 4:51 pm

    I’m already so angry with our crappy government, all its stupid leadership including the clowns in the Senate and House, and it’s so called systems that are ran mostly by criminals!! They are all hypocrites of the highest order!! So I’ll pass on reading anything that would only further my aggravation towards these educated idiots who have the nerve to call themselves leaders! I don’t see leadership, I see criminal activity everywhere I look, I see leaders only looking out for themselves and the people paying the highest to get their way. I don’t see much being done for the average, honest American!



  33. @NateNelson-b1z on September 22, 2025 at 4:52 pm

    Hemp is a great resource!! Hell BETSY ROSS made our first American flag out of hemp!! Wake up people!!😮



  34. @thinkrightdotcom on September 22, 2025 at 4:54 pm

  35. @mikechevreaux7607 on September 22, 2025 at 4:56 pm

    Hemp Was Used Widely
    Early On
    In Foundation Of America



  36. @gary100dm on September 22, 2025 at 4:57 pm

  37. @melaniebrooks7709 on September 22, 2025 at 4:58 pm

  38. @Bryan-f9q on September 22, 2025 at 4:59 pm

    They did it with opium too. Should we legalize that?



  39. @garygary7119 on September 22, 2025 at 4:59 pm

    I believe our fathers of this country were potheads why not seems to fit the puzzle🤔🍔🍟🥤



  40. @JerHAMM on September 22, 2025 at 4:59 pm

    Surprised you’re still around Jesse.. I listened to a lot of things you had to say ten years ago and looked into them…
    I hope your here to open people’s eyes and minds for years to come
    Thanks and hope to see you soon

  44. @jazzandbluesculturalheritage on September 22, 2025 at 5:04 pm

    It was HEMP, Jim, HEMP, and NOT the THC-enhanced Marijuana that is today cultivated by Mexican Cartels for a druggie high. The THC has addled your brain.
