Between the growing substance abuse and addiction epidemic, the explosion of fentanyl on the streets, and the move by half the country to legalize marijuana, there are a number of drug headlines in the news.   In this episode we speak with the US Drug Czar, Dr. Rahul Gupta, who runs the White House Office of National Drug Control Policy. In our conversation, we discussed the administration proposal to reschedule marijuana as a Schedule III drug and what that means. Dr. Gupta provides insight into how new data and the shifting legal landscape led to the decision.  The interview also tackles the pressing issue of the overdose crisis, with a focus on the rise of fentanyl. Dr. Gupta compares Narcan to a fire extinguisher, and says every American should have a dose in their home.  He also shares his perspective on the federal government's strategy to combat this epidemic, including harm reduction efforts, law enforcement initiatives, and public health campaigns. This episode offers an in-depth look at the multifaceted approach needed to address one of the nation's most urgent public health challenges. — Mosheh Oinounou (@mosheh) is an Emmy and Murrow award-winning journalist.

Art Kleinschmidt, former Deputy Director of the White House Office of National Drug Control Policy, discusses the Fentanyl Crisis that is plaguing the United States. The former Deputy Drug Czar discusses how the cultural shift towards the perception of drugs and drug usage has only dramatically increased drug usage. Kleinschmidt discusses how progressive cities drug polices like “safe injection sites,” in an effort to destigmatize drugs has only exacerbated the problem by “promoting actual drug usage.” Saying, especially cities campaigns towards 'safe ways' to use drugs like fentanyl, commenting “there is really no safe way to do fentanyl.” Kleinschmidt also comments that China and the drug cartels are seemingly working alongside one another by, “China shipping chemicals” to drug cartels who then “assemble them” and bring them up through the open southern border. Commenting, "this is the first time in my lifetime," that "something dangerous and illegal” is "actually being promoted almost within this country."See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

The marijuana reform movement is on fire. In the election last year, beneath all the Biden and Trump drama, every single state-level cannabis ballot initiative passed--from New Jersey to Mississippi to South Dakota. And now, New York state has legalized the green stuff. Federal legalization is gaining steam, the industry is exploding and everyone wants in on the weed movement. Marijuana is no longer a partisan or fringe issue--it's popular, mainstream and key to the future of the American economy post-pandemic. And it's got tremendous support from most independent Americans. 7 in 10 independents and moderates back legalization. So as 4/20 (the unofficial marijuana holiday) nears, Independent Americans is sparking up the cannabis conversation again--and continuing our focus on the state of affairs, the controversies, and the future of cannabis. And we're also digging into broader drug policy changes happening in America from opioids to psychedelics to criminal justice reform.  And so The Godfather of Drugs returns to IA! Ethan Nadelmann (@EthanNadelmann) has been called America's real Drug Czar. He joined us way back in Episode 12--and he's back again to bring his unparalleled insight and experience. Ethan has been the mastermind behind the biggest changes to drug policy in US history. A Harvard PhD and the son of a rabbi, Ethan founded the trailblazing Drug Policy Alliance in 1994 and was a lead strategist behind 30 years of reform--including California's historic 2014 Prop 47 referendum that reduced drug possession for personal use to a misdemeanor. This pivotal political victory proved to be the first domino to fall in a string of historic national changes and unleashed the wave of legalization of marijuana in states all across America we see now—with more to come soon.Easter and Passover are behind us, March Madness is over, the vaccine is hitting millions of arms daily, and things are warming up nationwide. But few issues are heating up more than cannabis. And few have a more fascinating past--or a more exciting future.Ethan returns to Independent Americans to chop it up with our host, Paul Rieckhoff (@PaulRieckhoff) to break it all down. Rieckhoff is a longtime advocate for drug reform, who has appeared in the media often on the subject, written about it extensively, testified before Congress about the impacts of cannabis for veterans, and spearheaded the landmark VA Medicinal Cannabis Research Act of 2018.America is deeply divided. But not about marijuna anymore. And Independent Americans is packing a bowl of light to contrast all the heat of other political pods.

For more information visit: Hightruths.com James “Jim” Carroll Director, White House Office of National Drug Control Policy The Honorable James W. “Jim” Carroll was sworn in as the Director of the White House Office of National Drug Control Policy (ONDCP) on January 31, 2019 following a unanimous confirmation by the United States Senate. Mr. Carroll previously served as the Acting Director and Deputy Director of ONDCP from February 2018 to January 2019. His strategic vision for the organization is best summarized in two words: “Be Relentless.” It's the advice President Trump gave Director Carroll when he nominated him to lead ONDCP, and the North Star that drives his vision in support of the organization's mission to stop the flow of illegal drugs in the United States and connect those suffering from substance use disorder with the tools they need to be put on the path to recovery. Under the leadership of President Trump and Director Carroll, the United States saw its first annual decrease in overdose deaths for the first time in 30 years; the amount of drugs seized by law enforcement at our Nation's borders stands at all-time highs; and record Federal grants have been awarded in support of drug interdiction and public health programs. In his role as “Drug Czar,” Director Carroll serves as the principal advisor to the President of the United States on drug policy and oversees a passionate staff of approximately 100 professionals. He oversees a budget of more than $35 billion and coordinates the activities and related funding of sixteen Federal government agencies and departments to reduce the supply of and demand for illicit substances. Prior to joining the Office of National Drug Control Policy, Director Carroll served as Assistant to the President and Deputy Chief of Staff at the White House. Previously in the Administration, Mr. Carroll served as General Counsel of the Office of Management and Budget and as Deputy Assistant and Senior Counsel to the President. Before joining the Trump Administration, Mr. Carroll served as Washington Counsel at the Ford Motor Company and as General Counsel of the Ford Motor Company Fund, the company's philanthropic arm that supports non-profit organizations and initiatives. This is Director Carroll's second time serving the American people in support of the President of the United States. During the George W. Bush Administration, Mr. Carroll held several positions including Special Assistant and Associate Counsel to the President at the White House, Deputy General Counsel and Acting General Counsel at the U.S. Department of the Treasury, and as an attorney at the U.S. Department of Justice. Mr. Carroll began his career as a state prosecutor in Virginia after earning his bachelor's degree from the University of Virginia and his J.D. from the George Mason University School of Law.

We interview onsite direct from the 7th Annual Drug Prevention Summit, put on by Drug Free America. Part I are interviews with key event speakers including industry leaders Former White House Drug Czar Robert DuPont; then Dr. Ken Finn; and finally Luke Niforatos, Senior Policy Advisor for "Smart Approaches to Marijuana". Parts II and III will be uploaded in the next week, so look for them.

A veteran of the Reagan and George H.W. Bush administrations, John Walters was “Drug Czar” of the George W. Bush administration (director of the White House Office of National Drug Policy from 2001-2009). In this Conversation, Walters discusses the opioid epidemic and the country's shocking passivity about addressing the crisis seriously and comprehensively. Reflecting on the devastating consequences of the opioid threat, Walters makes a compelling case for fighting back—through urgent changes to the way we approach law enforcement, combatting foreign sources of supply, education about drug abuse, and treatment for addiction.

This month, the White House leaked that Rep. Tom Marino (R-PA) was in the final stages of vetting to become the nation's Drug Czar. Marino's record as a prosecutor and legislator is in line with the punitive approach Donald Trump has promised to tackling illicit drugs. Sanho Tree is the director of the Drug Policy Project at the Institute for Policy Studies, where he has spent nearly two decades envisioning alternatives to the "war on drugs." He explains why a border wall won't stop drugs from coming into the country and why our most pressing drug problem—the opioid overdose crisis—was caused by the very prohibition-oriented drug policies that Trump favors.
