Kalshi, a prediction market platform, is facing legal challenges from several states, including Nevada, as it expands into the sports prediction market. The company, which has been operating since 2018, allows users 18 and older to purchase "event contracts" to predict the outcomes of sporting events, a practice some liken to sports betting.

The economic impact on the local economy is hard to overstate. Canadians pumped $3.6 billion into the Southern Nevada economy and supported more than 43,000 jobs, notes UNLV economics professor Stephen Miller. When Sen. Catherine Cortez Masto (D-NV) joined a bipartisan delegation to Ottawa in July to make nice with Prime Minister Mark Carney following Trump’s blustering insults about making Canada the 51st state, it was a reminder of what’s at stake.

They misjudge how many years people have been trying to find a way to live here and how many times the words "discouraged" and "moved on" appear in the history books of the area.

Both sports betting and generative AI have become dramatically more common in recent years, and their intersection poses risks for consumers. It used to be that you had to go to a casino or call up a bookie to place a bet, and you got your tips from the sports section of the newspaper. Now you can place bets in apps while the game is happening and ask an AI chatbot for advice.

The Trump administration is systematically locking up immigrants while they contest the government’s attempts to deport them, even if they’ve lived in the United States for decades and have no criminal record.
