Because prediction markets are vital to our national interests

Because the president's son is on the board of the best-known of the prediction markets. Since it's in the national interest to help enrich the president and his family, regulating prediction markets is contrary to said national interest.

So by “vital to our national interactions,” OP meant not vital to our national interests?

"US" or Trump?

Pre-2025, the DoJ was quite independent. Since Trump assumed office again, it's been servile to Trump himself. Headlines should inform us of that.

If it's Trump directing this, that's a total conflict of interest for him.
