2020 was always going to be a historic year for cannabis in Illinois. The sale of recreational marijuana became legal across the state at the turn of the decade, all thanks to the Cannabis Regulation and Tax Act (CRTA) that Pritzker signed back in June of 2019. Despite some supply shortages, limited licenses, and opening in the dead of Chicago winter, Illinois dispensaries sold around $3.2 million worth of recreational cannabis on January 1 alone. That s nothing, though, compared to the overall profit brought to the state by local and visiting cannabis shoppers.
According to the
Tribune, sale of cannabis brought Illinois more than $1 billion of revenue in 2020, about two-thirds from rec and one-third from medical. Furthermore, the Illinois Department of Revenue shows more than $175 million in cannabis tax revenue. One can only guess if the lockdown helped or harmed these numbers.

World War I left a wave of destruction across Europe, leaving 40 million soldiers and civilians dead or wounded. The German, Russian, Habsburg, and Ottoman empires all crumbled. New states emerged from their ashes, among them Poland.
Torn apart by Russia, Prussia, and the Habsburg empire in the 18th century, Poland reemerged on the map. The young reborn state, however, faced numerous challenges, including its unsettled borders on its eastern frontier with Russia.
Russia was thrown into civil war after the Bolshevik Revolution. Having withdrawn from the fighting of World War I, the country had no representation at the talks that resulted in the Treaty of Versailles, leaving issues impacting Russia like borders largely unresolved.

Journalism watchdog Reporters Without Borders (RSF) has condemned Russia for imposing exorbitant fines on several Russian-language services of Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty, saying the country s foreign agent law was absurd and designed to silence independent and opposition media in the country.
Russia’s state media-monitoring agency Roskomnadzor has opened 260 cases against RFE/RL Russian-language news services for failing to mark written and broadcast materials in accordance with the onerous regulations. A Moscow court has already levied fines totaling some $1 million in 142 cases.
