Aristocrat is expanding its support for the Oklahoma Association on Problem Gambling & Gaming (OAPGG) and the impactful work the organization does to support individuals, families, and communities across Oklahoma. We have redirected our funding from the National Council on Problem Gambling to state-based organizations that provide direct prevention, education, treatment, and support services. This decision reflects our differing views from the NCPG on prediction market-based sports wagering. Proud to support the excellent work of OAGPP!

Aristocrat is expanding support for the excellent teams at the Nevada Council on Problem Gambling and the Oklahoma Association on Problem and Compulsive Gambling & Gaming. While we admire much of their work, we are stepping back from the National Council on Problem Gambling (NCPG) due to their acceptance of substantial funding from an organization that operates a prediction-market-based sports gambling platform in contravention of state and tribal gaming regulations.

Sadly, money talks. Ken Paxton went after gambling in Texas — but stays hands off on Kalshi politi.co/4gwpa70 via @politico

I love my country with all my heart and I've never been more embarrassed for America than the spectacle I just witnessed in the Oval Office. Zelensky is fighting for the survival of his country, his people and their democracy. Trump and Vance appear to be completely aligned with Putin, the invader whose aim has been to conquer Ukraine. Zelensky should know that millions and millions of Americans still stand with him and his valiant people.

Thank you to @ZelenskyyUa and the brave people of Ukraine.   Your treatment today in the White House was disgraceful. You are owed an apology that sadly will never be forthcoming.   A shameful moment for America.
