Remembering Lucid News Co-Founder, Ken Jordan, on his birthday. I and so many others still miss him very much.

RIP #EmmaBonino, a great and early champion of radical #drugpolicyreform . We first met in April 1989 at the Congress for the Founding of the International Anti-Prohibitionist League on Drugs. Emma played a pioneering role in Italy and internationally.

Great to see this unanimous decision today. Nice to see a distinction made between drug use and real misuse. Shameful how long it took for @NRA to get on right side of this issue but glad it did. And truly shameful to see @Bloomberg funding side w @POTUS

R.I.P. James "Fergie" Ferguson II. A truly extraordinary human being. Longtime board member of @DrugPolicyOrg & @ACLU. Revered civil rights & criminal justice attorney. He got it, & fought for it, all: civil rights, civil liberties and drug policy reform

Colorado Governor Jared Polis just announced he is pardoning anyone previously convicted of psychedelic possession offenses, as he did with cannabis offenses 4 years ago. Way to go!!! #ps2025

This episode on Isaac Campos' History on Drugs podcast is really worth a listen for anyone interested in the history of #cocaine & other drugs. Paul Gootenberg is truly the GOAT of drug history.

I'm with Pat O'Hare, founder of Harm Reduction International, in Bogotá at #HR25, about to go on stage to honor #ErnieDrucker, a pioneering force for #HarmReduction both in the US and globally.

RIP my dear friend, Howard Josepher, founder of the #HarmReduction organization, @ExponentsNYC, a pioneering and innovative force in harm reduction & activist for humane drug policies.
If you suffer from #ChronicBackPain, read #HealingBackPain by #JohnSarno. In 1991, I was 48 hours from surgery for 2 herniated discs, read this book (recommended by @DrWeil), canceled my surgery, and was healed. It transformed my life.

JUSTICE seems rare these days but every once in a while a vicious murderous political leader suffers the consequences. Hallelujah!

RIP #ErnieDrucker. 1940-2025. A great pioneer and godfather of #harmreduction both in the US & globally. Helped create some of the first syringe exchange programs to reduce #HIVAIDS & helped start @housingworks & Doctors of the World, & much more. @HRInews @DrugPolicyOrg
This has been a long time coming - much too long, for no good reason - but thank you, President Biden, for doing it. You did a lot of harm as a leading #DrugWar proponent from the 80s to the 00s. This makes some amends.

The @DEAHQ shenanigans vis a vis the rescheduling process are persistent and outrageous. Both the agency and senior personnel need to be held responsible, and legislation introduced to remove #DEA from control over drug scheduling.

Read Maia Szalavitz's latest column, about what works and what doesn't in #drugtreatment, & why #12step programs are an important but very insufficient approach to #addiction, & what #RFKJr gets right & wrong.

Most of this represents an incredible waste of taxpayer dollars and does nothing to reduce overdose fatalities and other drug harms. A perfect target for Vivek Ramaswamy & Elon Musk's new Department of Government Efficiency (#DOGE)
