How can an inanimate object be charged with a crime? It's inanimate, so by definition cannot make a decision... Also, if they're confiscating assets, why not confiscate the car? Why just the cash/cards? How do we get this absurd law overturned? What's the minimum required? Supreme court decision?

They've long confiscated cars and cash. They're just upping their game.

  Yeah... Now, the logic is: "You have a bunch of money on your ATM card. You can potentially go to an ATM take out cash, then get drugs. Now, I need to seize all your money to ensure you can't buy those illegal drugs that may or may not exist."

They are civil cases- the objects aren't being charged with crimes.
