Kalshi reports ex-congressman George Santos to DOJ over suspicious trades

Kalshi, an online prediction marketplace, reported former Congressman George Santos to the Department of Justice over suspicious trades ahead of President Donald Trump's State of the Union address. Santos had publicly boasted about attending the event, only to later bet against his own attendance, raising eyebrows about potential insider trading. This move highlights a broader concern about ethical standards and financial practices in politics, prompting a federal investigation. The incident underscores the need for tighter regulations in political financial dealings.
