This is amazing.

Erin DuPree was the newly appointed Director of Minnesota’s marijuana regulatory agency, having been elevated by Democrat Governor Tim Walz. Walz said DuPree was an effective leader who would successfully oversee the state’s new pot market in a press release Thursday.

According to news reports, DuPree owed $12,500 total to two different vendors she failed to pay and $71,000 owed for state taxes, and she just recently settled a $45,000 tax lien with the federal Internal Revenue Service.

She was also caught selling vape products with THC, which was prohibited under the new law.

Just wait for the explanation:

In a statement, DuPree said, “Conducting lawful business has been an objective of my business career. However, it has become clear that I have become a distraction that would stand in the way of the important work that needs to be done.”

Online, the detractors were more specific that DuPree had a defunct consulting firm, ran a Pilates studio and not an actual comparable business in the industry, she was set to be paid a high salary at $151,505, and was caught selling products that would have been found to be illegal by the office she was planning to run.

The Democrat Governor Tim Walz said that she was an “excellent choice.” The Democrat Lieutenant Governor said she had “outstanding business acumen.”

What a surprise, the handpicked individual was a criminal. I suppose the background check they did just checked who she donated to...

Also notice the total lack of accountability on her part, claiming her criminal deeds are a 'distraction'.

Did the Babylon Bee write this? Are we sure? It sounds like the plot to a stoner comedy from 15 to 20 years ago, just missing the Weinstien starlets and their male feminist sex pest co stars.

where would we be without the holy regulator

A pothead who doesn't pay her taxes? Huh? That's crazy man.
