Of course they did

America is the best country in the world for felon, cheats, liars, swindlers, child sex abusers …

Just don’t get sick, or poor or develop any sense of morality.

Redistricting Indiana has far more risks than rewards β€’ Indiana Capital Chronicle Part of the reason for hesitancy around redistricting is that the legislature already did its job four years ago after the last census.

	Donald Trump’s Truth Social platform is to offer users the chance to trade on the outcome of elections and sports games, extending the US president and his family’s involvement in the booming prediction markets sector.

The Trump Media & Technology Group, which controls the social media platform, on Tuesday announced it would partner with Crypto.com to introduce β€œTruth Predict”, which would allow users β€œto react instantly to developments in major current events”.Β 

Crypto.com previously donated $11mn to Trump causes. Earlier this year the Securities and Exchange Commission closed an investigation into the company, and on Friday, it announced that it applied for a US bank charter.

In August, TMTG also signed a multibillion-dollar deal to buy Cronos, the tokens issued by Crypto.com, which sent their price soaring.

β€œFor too long, global elites have closely controlled these markets β€” with Truth Predict, we’re democratising information and empowering everyday Americans to harness the wisdom of the crowd, turning free speech into actionable foresight,” said Devin Nunes, TMTG’s head.

Excuse me? So the company the President currently owns is teaming up with a cryptocurrency company to create a prediction market, which will take bets... on things the President himself has quite a lot of control over?

Gosh, I'm sure nothing bad will happen.

You probably missed this key point in the initial news coverage since most headlines treated the DOJ announcement like it was no big deal. Read this to find out what’s really going on.

My Conversation with Andy Kim and Katie Phang on the Gateway Project Trump’s move to β€œterminate” this project shows what happens when a leader’s top priority is not safety or jobs - but political revenge.

Trump’s move to β€œterminate” the Gateway Project is classic β€œmob boss” politics – using federal funds to punish his political enemies, and hurt you in the process.

Watch my full conversation with @kim.senate.gov and @katiephang.bsky.social about what this means for commuters, jobs, and safety.
