Description

Josh unleashes the name 'Friends of Mary Jane' in a rapid-fire litany from the Oval Office, slotting them alongside Cannabis Society, Cannabis Coalition, E Cannabis Unum, and American Hemp League as improbable champions surging to Surgeon General Griffith's defense. This pro-marijuana faction ignites amid political inferno—Judiciary, Oversight, and Appropriations committees slashing budgets—forging a bizarre coalition that draws Bartlet's biting sarcasm, their rally cry amplifying fringe fervor into a shield against administration unraveling.
