We left off our saga of Justin and the Beanstalk with the young wunderkind’s triumph over the giant ogre (Prime Minister Harper), as he swept away the broken democratic shards littering his kingdom in the sky, to the cries of joy from the Canadian peasants. Justin began energetically fulfilling at least some of his many promises. He rejoined the Paris Agreement on Climate.

Joe Biden-- The Lesser EvilAll the Democrats running for president claim-- to one degree or another-- that they favor legalizing marijuana nationally... except former Colorado Governor John Frackenlooper, who fought against marijuana legalization when his own state ignored him and passed it by referendum.
