Vaping cartridges found at an illegal operation to the east of Phoenix. ( Stephanie Bennett/Fox Bennett/Fox News) So 25 gallons of crude and we recovered about 10,000 cartridges total off of that one guyWe located him through advertising to his various clients through social media.he had his own warehouse where he had a large lab set up there, Detective Matthew Shay said.

Its then mixed with ethanol and distilled several times to make it more translucent, ready for vaping. Marijuana crude oil gets clearer as it's distilled, ready for vaping. ( Stephanie Bennett/Fox Bennett/Fox News) So In 2017, we had seized 16 pounds of crude oil, that number doubled in 2018. Last year, it was over 230, said Sheriff Penzone. As western states started legalizing marijuana, cartels switched production to this stronger, more addictive crude oil marijuanato keep business going.

Legalizing sports betting in other states is not going to hurt Nevada, people are already betting on sports across the country ; they are just forced to do it illegally. In fact, I think Nevada will be a big winner because all of the major Nevada casino operators have operations in other states that will benefit them. And what is good for Nevada’s big casino operators is good for Nevada.

I'm always puzzled by his attack on this issue, ted, you support legalizing people who are in this country illegally. Ted Cruz supported a 500% increase in the number of H-1 visas, the guest workers that are allowed into this country, and Ted supports doubling the number of green cards.

He's a supporter of legalizing people that are in this country illegally. If he's changed that position -- and certainly he has a right to change his position on that issue -- but he should be clear about that, on other issues regarding immigration, he's not that much further than I am. He wanted to double the number of green cards. He wanted a 500% increase in the number of H1B visas. So everybody running for president on the Republican side in one way or shape supports some form or fashion the legalization of people that are in this country illegally.
