Testing for cbs news captioning sponsored by cbs this is the cbs evening news with scott pelley. Pelley this is our western edition. We begin with a major setback today for supporters of legalized pot. After a long review, the Obama Administration decided today that marijuana will remain what is called a schedule1 drug, same as heroin, the category for the most dangerous drugs with no known medical application.

Promising a new dawn. That wasnt the only sign republicans were falling in line. This is the scene before he was nominated today. Those are make America Great again hats on every chair. House majority whip Steve Scalise was so excited about his new swag that he proudly waited around for the cameras. While House Republicans appear organized, unified to carry out the agenda of the man who successfully executed a takeover of their party or perhaps their own agenda preexisting him, theres one big problem, the man whose agenda they are going to be working hand in glove with, a man with exactly zero experience in government for first time in the history of the republic appears to be botching the job of building the team a president needs to actually run the country. After he unceremoniously dumped Chris Christie as the head of his Transition Team, he turned to mike pence where pence or someone on his team was required by law to sign a document to work with the white house on the transition a
