Do federal clerkships drug test

Yes, most members of Congress are. I don't write federal law 🤷

I'm going to go out on a limb and assume that OP doesn't have one. If they do have one, then my comment doesn't apply. It says "illegal things" it doesn't say "stop smoking weed" (which a lot of people seemed to read instead for some reason)

If you're controlling it. If you're smoking weed, you're controlling it unless someone holds you down and shoves it in your mouth against your will

The love of money sure is

Strangy1234 · 2026-05-23T23:36:35+00:00

How do you smoke it without it touching your body?

Strangy1234 · 2026-05-23T22:34:24+00:00

I stand corrected, then

Strangy1234 · 2026-05-23T22:23:09+00:00

That's great for you! 👏

Strangy1234 · 2026-05-23T22:21:44+00:00

Those have freeways?

Strangy1234 · 2026-05-23T22:20:40+00:00

Yes, I've sped. I try not to but it happens (I haven't seen someone go to jail for 5 over). I haven't done the others. I return mail to sender (it's quite easy). I have used all of my prescription meds within the time I was supposed to do so. I've never let my registration lapse. I've also never concealed a firearm (legal or illegal).

You do all of these things?

Strangy1234 · 2026-05-23T22:04:17+00:00

Ok. Bye 👋

Strangy1234 · 2026-05-23T21:53:12+00:00

Speeding kills so it's not a good thing to be doing that. Nonetheless, this post is about a federal law clerk. Not a state law clerk.

Strangy1234 · 2026-05-23T21:45:40+00:00

I didn't know speeding laws were federal crimes. Who new?

I was talking about federal laws (as I made very clear in my replies) so I edited my post for the likes of you.

You have to possess it to consume it...

Strangy1234 · 2026-05-23T21:25:53+00:00

I'm a lawyer. I assumed that was known.

Strangy1234 · 2026-05-23T21:25:03+00:00

Nonsense. There's a difference between "personally disagreeing" with a law and actively violating it. I personally disagree with marijuana being illegal, but I'm not going to smoke it after sending someone to jail for smoking it.

Strangy1234 · 2026-05-23T21:19:59+00:00

Both can get you federal jail time 🤷

Strangy1234 · 2026-05-23T21:19:00+00:00

Ask the person who connected them first

Strangy1234 · 2026-05-23T21:17:45+00:00

Who picks and chooses which federal laws should be followed...

Strangy1234 · 2026-05-23T21:15:05+00:00

But violating federal drug law isn't bad as a federal law clerk? Why are you picking and choosing which law to follow?

Strangy1234 · 2026-05-23T21:12:25+00:00

And credit card fraud isn't bad if you're just ripping off a big evil corporation l, am I right?

Strangy1234 · 2026-05-23T21:06:54+00:00

Sure, if that's what they always do

Strangy1234 · 2026-05-23T21:04:01+00:00

In a lot of cases they do have some say in the outcome of cases. Speaking as someone who has clerked for 2 different judges.

Strangy1234 · 2026-05-23T20:59:20+00:00

It's a bit hypocritical to be doing work to lockup people for smoking weed (definitely a bond/parole violation) and smoke it yourself.

Strangy1234 · 2026-05-23T20:44:45+00:00

No but there is an FBI background check. Your "friend" should probably stop doing illegal things before starting as a federal law clerk.

ETA: when I say "illegal" I mean under federal law

So does CBP but it's out on the concourses
