A prediction market reported George Santos to federal prosecutors after he boasted he’d be going to Donald Trump’s State of the Union address, then bet against his own attendance, according to a person familiar with the investigation.
Kalshi, the online prediction marketplace, referred Santos to the Department of Justice after detecting suspicious trades made by the former congressman ahead of Trump’s Feb. 24 speech, the person said. The person spoke to The Associated Press on the condition of anonymity because they weren’t authorized to discuss the matter publicly.
Kalshi also reported the trades to the Commodity Futures Trading Commission, a federal regulatory body that has vowed to crack down on insider trading in prediction marketplaces.
Geez I remember when this guys obvious corruption seemed crazy. He was just ahead of the curb I guess.
Now do Trump
Fuck kalshi. Their adds alone are enough of a fucking cancer on society.
these gambling apps are an epidemic
For anyone as uninformed as myself, over half of young men have gambling apps on their phone like kalshit. That’s a huge problem for society when record numbers say they’re lonely and record numbers are gambling.
Is anyone surprised? Mr Fraud likely to have been committing… Fraud?
