Newsmax host Greg Kelly was lampooned this week after he claimed that marijuana caused a 4-day blackout.
Kelly made the claim in a tweet on Wednesday.
"SMOKING WEED (aka GRASS) is NOT a good idea," he wrote. "I've tried it (back in the day) and it was WORSE than anything that happened to HUNTER BIDEN. I 'toked up' with some buddies in Kentucky and woke up 4 days later in Nairobi, Kenya. With no idea what happened. DON'T DO DRUGS."

Commenters immediately pointed out that Kelly was either lying or confused about the drug he injested.
"If you were in Kentucky and woke up four days later in Nairobi, Kenya, it wasn't weed," Linda Childers pointed out. "Sounds like your 'buddies in Kentucky' roofied you and that you need to find some new friends."

That's cocaine, the most dangerous thing weed made me do was raid the cupboards for snacks.

Greg, thank you for telling us about your encounter with the marijuana. I myself have lost countless loved ones to the evil plant. I found my brother Doug (R.I.P.) in bed naked with this marijuana syringe in his anus. Since then I've spent everyday educating people about the weed pic.twitter.com/LOE9bScjRh

greg I don't know how to break it to you but those weren't “buddies" and that wasn't “weed"

This is exactly why it should be legal and widely available at a reasonable cost.

If smoking weed can score me four solid DAYS of sleep and a seat on a private jet to Kenya, I'm heading over to the dispensary now.

Back in the day I had a friend who injected a marijuana. HAD a friend. As soon as the reefer needle left his arm he sprinted off into the woods and he has been there for the last 10 years, thinking he's a Sasquatch NOT. EVEN. ONCE.

It's probably a requirement for working at Newsmax, though

SMOKING (aka Pipe Weed ) is NOT a good idea. I've tried it and it was WORSE than anything that happened to the EVER GIVEN. I "boofed" with some buddies in The Shire and woke up 72 days later in Mordor with no idea what happened. DON'T DO DRUGS. pic.twitter.com/cfO35o7zUo

I have never ever smoked pot in my life. But if smoking weed can make you magically travel to international cities overnight, I might just start! Because that just sounds awesome! #stupidcommentsaboutweed

Either he smoked something other than weed or he's a huge liar 🤥

Sir...you smoked weed laced with crack, meth, and angel dust. Probably washed down with liquor-which is worse for you than weed.

Lol give us the plugs name expeditiously.

That wasn't weed. You were rufied by your "buddies in Kentucky."
Or maybe you're just another lying...
🤮
W.P.O.D.
