Adam Reposa & Plant Politics in Texas — an Exposé: Watch Now
Adam Reposa thinks it’s high time for a ‘Me Too’ movement in cannabis. Do you?
“Adam Reposa, His Side Hustle & Hypocrisy in The Hater Dome” is now available on YouTube. The hour-long exposé uncovers layers of absurdities surrounding cannabis politics in The Lone Star State.
The story centers around Austin criminal defense attorney Adam Reposa, who is no stranger to drama and controversy. After years of pulling high-profile stunts, Reposa launched his weed delivery service — ATX Budtenders — in 2022.
The launch coincided with Austin’s decriminalization ordinance. It prohibits Austin police from issuing citations or making arrests for misdemeanor marijuana possession. That is, as long as the incidents are not associated with narcotics or violent felony cases.
Many Texas cities have followed suit with decriminalization efforts, thanks largely to the work of Ground Game Texas. The organization works to advance social justice and strengthen democracy.
Since launching his business, Reposa has openly advertised his services. Law enforcement raided ATX Budtenders in January 2024. Still, authorities have made no arrests or charges, and business continues to boom.
Simultaneously, lawmakers are gathered at the Texas Capitol mulling over Senate Bill 3. The legislation aims to ban all consumable THC products.
Don’t miss this deep dive into plant politics in Texas, which explores the following facts (and so much more):
- Texas Ag Commissioner Sid Miller rehired his aid who scammed citizens out of thousands of dollars for state hemp licenses;
- Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton hired a cannabis entrepreneur to defend him in his 2023 corruption trial. Since his acquittal, he’s been busy suing Texas cities that have decriminalized misdemeanor cannabis possession;
- During the trial, the jury heard evidence about a years-long affair Paxton had on Texas Senator Angela Paxton (as he simultaneously aspires to be the state’s morality police regarding adult cannabis consumption).
- Twenty-three Americans are currently serving life sentences for cannabis, according to lifeforpot.org.
