A private equity firm backed by Peter Thiel announced Thursday morning that it has closed $100 million in new funding for weed-related ventures, in direct opposition to Donald Trump’s attorney general, Jeff Session,
reports GQ.
In a further dig at Sessions, who earlier this month embarked on a long-threatened cannabis crackdown, GQ writes that the firm announced it is also donating $5 million worth of shares “to help communities harmed by cannabis prohibition.”
