Former FBI national security official Benjamin Thomas Wolf keeps his medals and credentials at his Ukrainian Village campaign office — along with joints of marijuana.

“As a cannabis user, I think it’s important we get out front and talk about it,” Wolf said. “We realize that cannabis can bring billions of dollars to the state, it’s medicine for millions of people around the country, it changes criminal justice reform and personally I think it’s a wonderful recreational substance as well.”

Wolf moved to Chicago five years ago and now owns the Logan Square restaurant Park and Field and teaches at Roosevelt University and East-West University.

Wolf, Sameena Mustafa and Steven J. Schwartzberg are all primary challengers to incumbent U.S. Rep. Mike Quigley, D-Ill., for the 5th Congressional District of Illinois, which includes Chicago’s North and Northwest sides, O’Hare Airport and Oak Brook. It’s a district where the average age is 33 — a young constituency Wolf is targeting with his progressive platform that includes legalizing recreational marijuana.

Regardless who the rep is, he's gonna be 99% ****. Might as well get someone to promote something worthwhile.
 
Well I support all efforts to de-criminalize drug possession for personal use nationwide, regardless of the party-affiliation of any candidate who supports this.

So let's hope he get's elected in your district.
On this we can agree, Captain Adverse. :thumbs:
