Rob Gronkowski's Latest Business Venture Receives Push Back From Big Pharma - He Fires Back With This!
"When I started this whole thing back in 2019 after I had retired early, it really was a part time project and a way for me to work back to the #football field. After so many years on the field my body was starting to really feel the long term effects of playing football at such a high level and CBD truly helped my body recover and be able to make my comeback to the NFL. It helped me in such a great way so I figured there was no better time to make Natural CBD Releaf available to everyone, as it can help thousands of people experience life pain-free and live much happier lives.”
His product, Natural #cbd Releaf, has been flying off the shelves within minutes and Gronk says his number one struggle as CEO is being able to keep up with demand. His CBD wellness line is 90% cheaper and five times more effective than those being offered by Bayer and other “Big Pharma” companies. the solution for those who don’t want to spend the rest of their lives in constant long lasting pain.

Marijuana Giant Canopy Growth Claims Ownership Of Oil Extraction Technology And Sues GW Pharma For Patent Infringement
In the lawsuit, Canopy states that Mueller’s extraction method, described in the October 2000 patent filing, is the same method that GW Pharmaceuticals describes as part of the #epidiolex manufacturing process on its website.
According to the suit, GW Pharmaceuticals had to have been aware of the earlier patent filing, since, as Canopy claims, GW Pharmaceuticals tried to license it. Instead, “in 2017, GW declined a license” for the patent, the suit claims.
If Canopy Growth prevails in its suit against GW Pharmaceuticals, the wildly successful UK-based firm that manufactures and markets Epidiolex, a CBD-based prescription drug available for more than $1,200 a bottle, the implications for the recreational #cannabis industry in the US, as well as the global CBD business, are immense.
And anyone using a particular CO2 extraction method is using technology owned by Canadian cannabis giant Canopy Growth and potentially owes them money, the company claims in a recently acquired US patent and in a potentially blockbuster lawsuit filed on Tuesday.

Maryland Lawmaker Files Marijuana Legalization Bill Ahead Of 2021 Session
Del. Jazz Lewis (D), who prefiled the legalization bill, shared a draft of the legislation with Marijuana Moment on Tuesday. While his office said it’s “still working on the bill” and that “things are subject to change,” Lewis’s current plan would legalize and regulate the cannabis, allow for sales by state-licensed businesses, expunge past convictions and establish a social equity program meant to reinvest in communities hit hardest by the war on drugs.
In a statement to Marijuana Moment, Lewis said he introduced the legislation, HB0032, “because we have the data and popular opinion on our side to end prohibition.”
“States that have legalized have seen a decline in teen usage due to disruptions of the illicit market,” Lewis said. “Law enforcement has mostly stated they would rather go after actual criminals than young people who shouldn’t be involved with the justice system.”
“We can and should do better,” the lawmaker continued. “We allow for the expungement of records, creating social equity businesses to include minorities and the formerly incarcerated, and we dedicate resources to revitalizing disconnected communities. The time for restoring communities and ending prohibition is now.”
Smoking cannabis in public would carry a civil fine of ups to $50, though individuals could instead perform up to five hours of community service.
Landlords could prohibit tenants from smoking inside or consuming marijuana in a manner that creates an odor that disturbs other tenants, and employers would be able to fire employees for being under the for me 🙂influence of cannabis at work.

More than a quarter (27 percent) of revenue from taxes and fees would go to a Community Reinvestment and Repair Fund “to serve communities impacted by poverty, mass incarceration, or racism via grants to organizations utilizing evidence-proven and evaluated tactics to address these challenges,” according to a summary of the bill. Another 20 percent would go to the state’s four historically Black colleges and universities, while smaller amounts would go to zero-interest loans to social equity applicants (10 percent) and technical assistance for those applicants (three percent).
