Another example of Republicans giving people opportunities to make Bad Decisions, then punishing them for doing the stupid things Republicans just allowed them to do.

Another ingenious way for the Trumpf junta to target successful black people. Why else have D/FBI Kashyap Pramod "I'll Have The Butter Chicken" Patel have a press conference over this? Let's see who else this dragnet captures.

One AI overview of the multi-billion dollar sports betting industry:

"The US sports betting market was valued at about $17.94 billion in 2024 and is projected to reach $27.4 billion by 2033, growing at a rate of over 10% per year. In 2024, Americans legally bet a total of $149.9 billion on sports, generating $13.78 billion in revenue for sportsbooks (football, baseball, hockey, UFC/MMA, and basketball (NBA, WNBA, NCAA)."

"And didn't the Brooklyn Bombers beat the Yankees in the World Series with a last second field goal?"

D/FBI Kashyap Pramod Vinod "I'll Have the Butter Chicken" Patel certainly sounds like a regular American.
