In a fresh line of attack, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/donald-trump">Donald Trump</a> targeted <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/kamala-harris">Vice President Kamala Harris</a>'s prosecutorial record on marijuana, telling Fox News that she &#8220;put thousands and thousands of Black people in jail over marijuana.
"She was a bad prosecutor. She was a prosecutor of Black people," Trump said Monday on Fox News' "The Ingraham Angle." 
&#8220;She put thousands and thousands of black people in jail over marijuana. But when it came to big crime, murders and everything else, she was weak,&#8221; the former president told Laura Ingraham in an interview.

The narrative of Harris&#8217;s aggressive cannabis prosecutions has followed her since her 2020 Democratic presidential bid. When President <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cannabis/24/07/39874209/joe-biden-drops-out-what-would-happen-with-cannabis-legalization-under-kamala-harris-or-donald-t">Biden dropped out of the race</a> and named Harris as the presumptive nominee, criticism over her rulings as a prosecutor re-emerged.
<h1 class="wp-block-heading">What Say You, VP Harris?</h1>
"Before I was elected as vice president, before I was elected as United States senator, I was the elected attorney general, as I&#8217;ve mentioned, of California. And before that, I was a courtroom prosecutor," Harris <a href="https://www.npr.org/2024/07/29/nx-s1-5048532/harris-prosecutor-trump-election">told</a> campaign staffers the day after Biden endorsed her to take his place at the top of the Democratic ticket. While Harris may have been grandstanding her prowess as a tough prosecutor for Trump&#8217;s sake, voters on the left often referred to Harris as a cop.
"And they didn't mean that as a compliment," Paul Butler, a law professor at Georgetown and a former public prosecutor, told NPR.
When Harris ran for president five years ago, her time as a prosecutor was a liability as she was often criticized for her record on marijuana, which of course <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cannabis/24/07/39890659/kamala-harris-u-turn-on-cannabis-heres-where-she-stands-on-weed-legalization-now">has changed</a>. 
Though Trump's attack is misleading, one wonders if he is making his first moves to position himself against cannabis criminalization by bringing Harris to task and laying the mass incarceration of Black people for cannabis at her doorstep? Analysis conducted by the American Civil Liberties Union <a href="https://graphics.aclu.org/marijuana-arrest-report/">shows</a> that Black people are 3.6 times more likely than white people to be arrested for marijuana possession, despite similar usage rates.
<h1 class="wp-block-heading">Exactly How Many Cannabis Convictions Were There Under Prosecutor Harris?</h1>
As attorney general between 2004 and 2010 Harris oversaw roughly&nbsp;1,956 misdemeanor and felony convictions&nbsp;for "marijuana possession, cultivation, or sale," according to a 2020&nbsp;<a href="https://www.reuters.com/article/uk-factcheck-kamalaharris-five-claims/fact-check-misleading-meme-featuring-five-claims-about-kamala-harris-idUSKBN25H2F2/">Reuters fact check</a>. However, defense attorneys and prosecutors in Harris' office&nbsp;<a href="https://www.mercurynews.com/2019/09/11/kamala-harris-prosecuting-marijuana-cases/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">told</a>&nbsp;the Mercury News last week&nbsp;that most of the people convicted during this period did not serve jail time. Convictions for marijuana also went down&nbsp;under Harris' tenure as district attorney.

Eli Lilly &amp; Co (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LLY#NYSE">LLY</a>) shares are trading lower Tuesday. Here&#8217;s <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/07/39965143/why-eli-lilly-and-company-shares-are-moving-lower-on-thursday">what you need to know.</a>
What To Know: The company is set to report its second-quarter earnings on Aug. 8. The upcoming earnings report is expected to show EPS of $2.70 and revenue of $9.949 billion.
Significant options trading activity, involving large investors, has been noted. Of the 20 trades detected, 11 were call options totaling $726,640 and nine were put options totaling $617,684, indicating mixed market sentiment. Analysts predict a broad price range of $400 to $1,320 with an average target price of $986.80. for Eli Lilly based on recent trading volumes and open interest.
<h1 class="wp-block-heading">How To Buy Eli Lilly Stock?</h1>
Buying shares is typically done through a brokerage account. You can find a list of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/best-stock-trading-platforms">possible trading platforms here.</a> Many will allow you to buy &#8220;fractional shares,&#8221; which allows you to own portions of stock without buying an entire share. For example, some stock, like Berkshire Hathaway, or Amazon.com, can cost thousands of dollars to own just one share. However, if you only want to invest a fraction of that, brokerages will allow you to do so.
In the the case of Eli Lilly, which is trading at $784.40 near market close Tuesday, $100 would buy you 0.13 shares of stock.
If you're looking to bet against a company, the process is more complex. You'll need access to an options trading platform, or a broker who will allow you to &#8220;go short&#8221; a share of stock by lending you the shares to sell. The process of shorting a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-short-a-stock">stock can be found at this resource.</a> Otherwise, if your broker allows you to trade options, you can either buy a put option, or sell a call option at a strike price above where shares are currently trading — either way it allows you to profit off of the share price decline.
LLY Price Action: Eli Lilly shares were down by 2.18% at $790.21 at market close Tuesday, according to Benzinga Pro.
