The NFL now remains the only major American sports league that has not officially partnered with a prediction market
The NBA has named Kalshi and Polymarket as its “preferred prediction market partners."
The NFL is now the biggest remaining U.S. men's league without a prediction market deal, as MLB, NHL, and MLS are all partnered with at least one.

This story is a bombshell. @elonmusk alone disabled Starlink for Ukraine, "a decision that sparked panic in Kyiv and confusion inside the Trump administration." wsj.com/world/ukraine-starli…

Sen. Susan Collins steered millions of dollars in government contracts to a shady defense contractor in exchange for $150,000 in Super PAC donations.
The alleged pay-for-play scheme drew an FBI corruption investigation, which was closed in 2025 after Trump took office.

The average family paid $833 more for housing since Trump took office.
Home prices have increased 36 months straight.
Mortgage rates are at almost 7%—highest level since Trump took office.
Housing director Bill Pulte lies his ass off: "The cost of a new home is in some cases 20%, 30% lower than it was under Biden ... President Trump has crushed inflation."
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Pulte's claim on new home costs being lower in some cases aligns with Lennar net average selling prices declining ~25-30% from 2022 peaks via incentives and adjustments; Census medians show smaller recent changes.

The President said, “whoever wins AI, wins.” This assessment is wrong. The reality is that whoever “wins AI,” AI wins.
AI agents have already gone rogue. Highly capable frontier AI and artificial superintelligence will outsmart humans and go beyond human control. And at that point, it won’t matter whether you speak English or Mandarin. We’re all in danger.
We need a global AI treaty now.

Republicans telling a bunch of billionaires to “self-police” and “self-regulate” their companies is why billionaires donate so much money to elect Republicans.
The corruption is literally killing us.

This would’ve been one of the biggest scandals in US history and immediately ended any previous presidency. Just another day

Tom Tiffany says he doesn’t care about union support because he’s not worried about the “kingpins.”
So I went to Milwaukee’s Labor Day parade to see if I could find one. Turns out, I found a whole lot of Wisconsinites who work for a living.
