This is in violation of the farm bill, which was signed by President Trump in 2018. It will not hold up in court.

Ohio Gov. Mike DeWine is set to sign an executive order temporarily banning "intoxicating" h**p, low-level THC products such as delta 8.

On Wednesday, the governor is expected to announce a state of emergency due to the "availability and abuse of intoxicating h**p products remains a serious threat to public health and safety," according to a draft executive order obtained by News 5. The executive order was confirmed by House Speaker Matt Huffman (R-Lima) and House Minority Leader Dani Isaacsohn (D-Cincinnati).

I covered the trial of George Wagner IV, and soon, his father, Billy. Their mother/wife, and their brother/son, Jake. All charged with killing 8 members of a single family at three locations. The judge ruled early on that the defendants would not be seen in shackles or handcuffs, or prison garb because of television cameras — it would make them look guilty, he said.

Luigi Mangione is accused of murdering one person; he’s flanked with more security than President Trump was in the same courthouse (I was there, in the room with POTUS, so I can attest). Further, the bullet proof vest; officials say is to protect Luigi, but that’s preposterous. No one wants to harm him. Quite the opposite, actually. Besides, they’re in a very secured building with-already multiple layers of armed guards.

The state/DOJ are prejudicial and they’re tainting an already-tough jury pool. Luigi is likely to hang a jury — twice in Manhattan, and parading him around like a circus elephant is not going to help the prosecution.

Yes, Luigi is being treated very differently. Differently than the President, who deserved top notch protection, and different than 4 defendants who killed 8 people. None of the five aforementioned had any of the security Luigi has, and none were allowed to be shown “in custody” while in front of cameras in a courtroom.
