Cenk Uygur talks to actor, podcaster and longtime pro-pot activist Tommy Chong about the recent legalization of marijuana in two states and whether other parts of the country will follow suit. “It’s going to empty the jails, and we’re probably going to disband the DEA,” Chong says. “Washington and Colorado are just the toe into the water. The whole body’s following.” Though President Obama has not followed through on 2008 campaign promises to overhaul the War on Drugs, Chong says, “He’s also a black guy from Hawaii who used to surf.”
