America's Youth Destroying Their Minds

Dear Friend of America's Survival,

President Trump has had many successes, but the increasing use of drugs by young people is not one of them.  As media are reporting, the number of teens using marijuana by vaping has increased dramatically in the past two years...

Here's the survey results: Past year vaping of marijuana, which has more than doubled in the past two years, was reported at 20.8% among 12th graders, with 10th graders not far behind at 19.4% and eighth graders at 7.0%. Past month marijuana vaping among 12th graders nearly doubled in a single year to 14% from 7.5%–the second largest one-year jump ever tracked for any substance in the history of the survey. 

Meanwhile, Trump ally (and GOP 2016 Convention speaker) Peter Thiel is making money from dope. His fund "Hits the Jackpot With $12 Billion Tilray Stake," a reference to a Canadian pot company, as noted by Bloomberg.

Thiel is an outspoken homosexual activist. He said, "I Am Proud To Be Gay" at the convention. 

Back in 2016, the Sacramento Bee noted that, "Peter Thiel, the Silicon Valley billionaire who co-founded PayPal and has become an outspoken supporter of Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump, has cut a big check to the California campaign to legalize recreational pot. Thiel contributed $300,000 to Proposition 64" to legalize the drug. 

Trump has to pick between Thiel and United States Surgeon General Jerome Adams, who warns against legalization and says, " Recent increases in access to marijuana and in its potency, along with misperceptions of safety of marijuana endanger our most precious resource, our nation’s youth."

He says the scientific and medical evidence indicates marijuana "impacts the formation of brain circuits important for decision making, mood and responding to stress." 

Marijuana is linked to violence, as in the case of the Islamist Boston bombers.
