Welcome back to the 74th episode of the ModState Podcast.

On this podcast John and Nate break down the President Trump vs Steve Bannon feud that has emerged following the release of the "Fire and Fury" book by Steve Wolfe. What will this do to each camp? Is this a loss for President Trump or will it hurt Steve Bannon more?

The second and more important topic is Jeff Sessions departure from Obama era marijuana policing. Why Jeff Sessions? We explore why and how this could be a win for Republicans if they choose to make a move to legalize it.
