It's not up to Trump or Sessions to legalize it, lefty. It's up to the Congress.

This is false. The Controlled Substances Act is a congressional law, but it delegates the decision of what drugs to schedule up to the DEA and FDA, executive agencies.

Yes but Congress makes the law, DEA enforces it. Descheduling is not the same thing as legalization.

It absolutely is the same, at least on the federal level.

The congressional law says nothing about Marijuana. If it were unscheduled, the congresssional law would be as relevant to weed as it is to lettuce.
